The Southeast Wind is an anthology of short stories in poetic prose with an intimate character, where the author takes us on a journey to a world filled with sensations, memories, and images, pausing time to savor the words.
Structured in three parts according to the character of different winds: the itinerary begins with the breath of Eros, where sensuality and eroticism will guide us hand in hand. It will continue with the warm Zephyr, rooted in human stories of different characters, and will conclude with a final wind; the Sirocco, focused on thoughts about nature, its beauty, and fragility.
