October Harvest

It’s a book of poetry, each poem telling a story of its own. Most of the poems deal with love, that’s the dominating theme, then there is a lot about music mainly picturing composers, and then there is a geographical department, almost like a journey, characterizing different countries. In between there is a lot of general reflections of a philosophical and metaphysical kind, dealing also with death and other facts of life, generally sticking to realism, some poems being purely documentary.
