Although included in the edition of his complete poetry, there was no such edition available for this book by the poet and academic from Cartagena, which appears now, when the eighty years of the end of the Spanish Civil War.
In the words of Carmen Conde: «While the men die, it was written in a time of intense pain for what the war destroyed and will continue to destroy.
Not certain men, but all men are cried here with the deep grief that a woman feels at the inscrutable designs that allow the horror where the confident smile lived ».
«… Then I was in direct contact with this madness that pierced us all, even those who were out of action.
I faced death, I faced injustice, I faced evil ... Then came what was called peace, but we all know it was not peace, but a lie.

It will be presented by Luis González-Adalid, plastic artist and art editor, with free entry until full capacity is reached.
«Miguel Ángel Arcas called some of his previous aphorisms" aphorems. "
These could be gatorems, or aphroids, because they go through the roofs of houses and streets, and through those worlds of God, and through the deserts of the earth, and through the steppes of dreams.
They are erratic aphorisms and at the same time tools: they serve us as tools to use when we are lost.
I think that whoever enters this book will come up with an approximate and accurate image of its author: a belly-up cat that has come into the world to enjoy it, and suffer it, and think it, and sing it, and crumble it, and suck it until we leave it as a scrape bright sardine.
Here are Michelangelo and his aphorisms (forgive the redundancy of the expression): intelligent and acid, kind and thug, wise and disheveled, irreverent and fervent.
How he is obliged to be a writer.
As he is bound to be a great cat. »Carlos Marzal.
