SILÊNCIO and the silence of books
The silence of books caught in the obsolescence of history, in the accuracy of the search,
Books that became the inaccurate terrain of its time,
Books taken by the silence of updates.
Unloved books, returned to invisibility.
Those who witnessed an era and gave way to the next and the next,
Premonitory books whose poignant truth was too hard to hear.
Books which are you.
The silence of burned books, turned to ashes in pyres, Autodafés carrying content which had to limit the expansion.
Those with corrosive ideas have been struck by prohibitions, censored by other thoughts… And still sleep.
The silence of books that lonely testimonies have not found an echo.
Others, whose silence guided by emotional vestiges…Make present and past resonate ...
In silence.
Books that have remained in this silence and cluttered by dust in libraries in search of consolation still live as if nothing had existed before.
The silence of those who used the lights as well as the darkness…
To survive.
