Overview

The collection Amorous Lunation springs from the desire to map the vastest and, at the same time, the most intimate territory a human being can traverse: that of love. Not a static sentiment, but a continuous cycle, a ""lunation"" precisely, made of luminous and shadowy phases, of silent attraction and tempest, of presence and of an absence that is never truly so. The thirty texts that compose the collection are so many fragments of a single, great emotional fresco. They delve into eros not only as a physical force, but above all as a metaphysical energy, an instrument for knowing oneself and the other, the unique language capable of tuning two hearts ""to the rhythm of sighs"" (The Voice of the Violin). Love is investigated here in every shade: it is the alchemical fusion of bodies and souls becoming ""one body lost in one sea"" (Held Tight); it is the quiet and obstinate resistance of those who, surrounded by the world's chaos, find their own law in intimacy (""Let's make love every day. / It is the only law / that bends chaos,"" Alone and Strong); it is the indelible mark that an encounter forever leaves on the soul, because ""Those who have loved each other never leave"" (They Never Leave). The language is deliberately sensual and synesthetic: emotions have a flavor (""the bread now tastes of sun and waiting,"" The Taste of Life), memories a scent, silences a sound (""they weep melody,"" Hands that Seek). Musicality is a foundational element, from the symphonies of absence to the records spinning ""wounded by light"" (Light of Eternal Dawn), to the violin that tunes hearts. The natural elements - the sea, the wind, the stars, fire - are not merely a backdrop but an integral and symbolic part of the narrated passion, becoming metaphors for a total state of mind. ""Lunazione Amorosa"" is, in short, a journey into the chiaroscuro of a profound feeling. It is an exploration that starts from the flesh to arrive at the soul, convinced that right there, in the embrace that dissolves boundaries, one can for a moment graze the eternal and ""trace love / on time's route.""
