Download or read book Los fantasmas de la Soledad written by Yankuik Itzaé and published by Editorial Independiente . This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Narracion del género realismo mágico con tintes existencialistas. En dónde el protagonista, sumido en la marginación social, explora el sin sentido de la vida material y la búsqueda de la verdad espiritual que da razón de ser a la existencia. La respuesta al papel que desempeñamos en el universo, al significado de la vida, y la armonía universal emergen como un secreto casi sagrado entre el lodo de una sociedad perdida y podrida. Y qué, sin embargo, al ser alcanzado, no exonera del sufrimiento, combustible necesario para la trascendencia del ser. Una historia tal vez trágica, pero a la vez refrescante para el alma. Cuyo mensaje acompañará a los que, solitarios, caminan sin rumbo, a pasos ciegos, en la oscuridad de la vida.
