DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK In this collection of short and poetic stories, which includes thoughts of various kinds, which focus on some of the greatest torments of man, who wanders among his indelible obsessions, we wanted to try to scrutinize the intrinsic human nature, and what that man is beyond his appearance, and how his feelings vary according to the pain that strikes him.
There is an existential torment, which pervades every man, and which haunts him, often becoming a latent obsession, which remains fixed and immutable in his unconscious, and the deeper his soul is, the greater his immense agony will be.
Inspired by the great authors of the past, therefore we have tried to create a work that manages to pay homage to those crepuscular and decadent atmospheres of Gothic literature, but also experimenting with other more similar genres, with the adolescent torments of what is recognized as, the generation x which is usually plagued by torments and uncertainties about the future.
We wanted to return to give voice to the decadent and worn-out atmospheres of the fears of the end of the millennium, to reawaken that darkness, which remains immense in souls that have become slaves of their deepest thoughts, resuming to deal in a more modern key, some great themes that belong to the past.
Although man seeks happiness, he is not capable of being able to live without torment, because thanks to it he will be able to understand what matters most in life, and even if the pain at times becomes so excruciating for him, that he feels like dying within himself infinite times, at the same time he rises in a certain way stronger, even if at the same time more decadent and fragile than before, but that suffering will make the most hidden thoughts re-emerge in himself, and the sweetest poetry.
His fears and apprehensions are often relegated to an unknown room without light, where he cannot see well what he fears, even if his instinct suggests their form.
There are stories of lost loves and regrets, which wear out the soul of man, but without preventing him from keeping the indelible hope alive in himself, while the immense loneliness pervades him, where he desperately tries to convince himself that he is not alone, while each individual is hopelessly alone in this decadent world, where at the end of the sunset, that eternal night soon transpires which hides tears and regrets from other eyes that no one hears.
Between lost tears and silent moans, he remains immersed in his constant torment, where pain always seems to teach him something that had previously escaped him.
Thus he manages to look at the world in a different way and to discover realities that, although they had always been in front of him, had remained hidden from his thought, because the darkest horrors are those of the mind, but none of them is worse than the real ones. which indelibly break his immense soul, depriving him of his illusions and dreams. ABOUT THE AUTHORS We, the authors of this book, have built our basic culture on the fashions of generation X, and we are passionate about the gothic atmospheres of films such as The Crow, or the crepuscular Requiem for a dreams, but we also greatly appreciated the adolescent themes, which are treated in Paranoids park, and also in We are infinite.
We also adore silent cinema, especially expressionist cinema and neorealism, as well as the dramas of Nordic and Anglo-Saxon cinema.
We listen to the grunge music of Nirvana, and the melodic metal of bands like Evanescence.
In the literary field we adore the great classics of the past centuries, and in particular the gothic literature and the dramas, without neglecting the romanticism and poetry which are in our works, because we want to share our passions, which shed light on the evils that afflict our society and our existence.
