Racconti e disincontri
by Aimar RollanRacconti e disincontri è un libro di racconti brevi su varie tematiche e indipendenti tra loro. 30 racconti brevi, qualcuno più lungo degli altri, altri talmente brevi da potersi considerare micro-fiction o microracconti. Molti di essi trattano di amore e disinnamoramento, di incontri e disincontri, ma ce ne sono anche di filosofici, psicologici, di storia, di fantascienza e di fantasia, così come di realismo con tematiche quotidiane. A priori potrebbe sembrare un libro di stampo romantico, ma è molto di più. La maggior parte dei racconti sono ambientati a Barcellona, dove l’autore ha vissuto nel corso degli anni; altri nel suo Paese Basco natale. Altri ancora in luoghi immaginari. Ogni storia è a sé stante, così come ogni lettore al quale piacerà più una storia rispetto a un’altra, che però sicuramente non risulteranno indifferenti a nessuno. Alcune di queste storie potranno anche convertirsi in futuri romanzi. Lo scopo di questo libro è quello di intrattenere con brevi storie di finzione e anche di trasmettere in ogni racconto un’idea principale che faccia riflettere. Storie per leggere e rileggersi.
