About This Book

Una narración comedida combina meditaciones del autor sobre la vida literaria con la descripción de un cortejo discreto entre un joven y una muchacha del pueblo. Se contraponen la defensa de la medida, la sinceridad artística y la serenidad creadora frente a los gustos estridentes del público y la crítica, y se muestra la paciencia afectiva como forma de conducta. La obra alterna reflexión y escenas cotidianas para explorar la autenticidad, las convenciones sociales y el dilema entre la búsqueda de aplauso y la fidelidad al arte.
