About this listen

Fragmented into 16 excerpts, stories, or scenes, this brief work by León focuses on the breakup of a couple of unnamed lovers without explicit gender, swept away by the gale of passion and desire, with the moon as their sole spectator and accomplice, and the presence of a cat that serves as witness to the impulses of a love that is hopelessly undone in the misunderstanding of bodies scorched by the fire of the sexes. The work is a heartbroken cry of a lonely, proud individual, overpowered by his own ego in the face of the loss and abandonment of the one who filled his days. And in the other end, silence and emptiness as the only response.

The whole book is imbued with a deeply moving, sentimental tone that strikes with the force of a desperate ritornello.
