"Le storie di questo libro stanno nel perimetro di quattro cantoni: un'età giovane e stretta, di preludio al fuoco; una città flegrea e meridionale; la materia di qualche libro sacro; gli anni di madrevita operaia di uno che nacque in borghesia. Il possedimento minimo per un passante, è stato immenso per chi si è fermato. Esso rinchiude per attrazione un me narrato più che un io narrante, qualche tu femminile scalzo e ben piantato in terra, un noi promessa di frantumi. I pronomi sono frutti che maturano in stagioni diverse.

Forse, ci dice l'autore, è proprio nelle cose più semplici della vita che si nasconde la felicità.
