You know, I was thinking… Every time again, it will turn out that this one night, that one walk, this one conversation, that one morning, … was not some kind of new reference for a deeper and more authentic life, but simply a meaningful event to never forget.

Yes, true… And then you are somewhere, alone or in company, and suddenly you feel connected to some other place, to some moment in the past and to some time in the future, all at the same instant. It’s as if you experience a time lapse of connection with an undefined set of possibilities…

Tragic Realist Fiction takes the road again. Wandering places is a lifestyle. Wandering places is life. All along faint and quiet roads. The seduction of a place. You belong to where you go and leave again. And there is always something in between. You see a light in the distance. It comes closer. You talk to landscapes. They answer. You remember others, or not. You cross crossroads. You leave and move on, with the possibility to come back.
