The thinker speaks to us as he walks through these pages. Approved by the golden rules of the essay, critical thinking is stubborn, rigorous and close. As always on the go, but never as an indifferent flaneur. By constantly paying attention to the dialectic between the obvious and the more secretive forces that move in society, the aim is to understand, explain and internalize the causes and effects of this constant conversation. And -why not?- to help change what needs to be changed, revealing the absurdity, the injustice, the false argument that prevails in our times -and throughout history-. In twenty-five elegant pieces, Elena Martinez Rubio asks us for a detailed account of a worldview, based on her travels and her hobbies, on a wide range of topics: history, politics, literature, anthropology, languages, philosophy, science... And because they are reflections made in different ways, given in the record of the literary essay, both in style and in the treatment of the subject itself. By the way shown by the old Publius Terence, nothing concerning the human condition is foreign to the essayist. Nor is it the pleasure of the reader.
