La aurora cuando surge

A year after his father's death, Manuel Astur undertook a journey that would take him through Italy from north to south, thus joining the long tradition of writers who documented his journeys through the bel paese that offers the traveler, after the centuries, imperishable prints of extraordinary beauty and thus confronts him with the transience of his vital journey. Astur uses writing as a means to delve into his family past, to learn from the great masters who walked the same path before him, to come to terms with his deepest pain and fears, to celebrate his father, and ultimately , to reconcile the moments of greatest happiness and amazement with melancholy and mourning. A book about love, loss and the power of the word as a source of profoundly moving, beautiful and accurate meaning.
