C'è un'ansia di cambiamento nel mondo. Papa Francesco la raccoglie nei suoi gesti e nelle sue parole, specialmente in un tempo di crisi quale quello che stiamo vivendo. È chiaro che abbiamo tutti bisogno di capire che cosa ci sta accadendo, di dare una lettura umana e spirituale di quel che viviamo. Francesco, come si comprende in questo volume, assimila la visione di sant'Ignazio di Loyola così come emerge negli Esercizi Spirituali. E afferma che i "desideri allargano il cuore": è in essi che "si può discernere la voce di Dio" nella storia di oggi.

È un canzoniere d’amore Donna cometa di Ernesto Franco, uomo e poeta costretto a fare i conti con il congedo. Congedo da un preciso referente lirico – il «tu» di queste poesie, o la donna, che come la cometa passa, illumina e finisce – ma non per questo congedo dal tempo e dal viaggio di vita e poesia, se è vero che nei 47 frammenti del libro l’io lirico segue, quasi imita per mimesi, la forma breve o brevissima del nostro «immenso camminare».

Chi si ritira dal mondo, cosiddetto sociale, è il soggetto di questo bozzetto drammatico, dal titolo “Assente”. Tratta la vita di un individuo che, vicino all'età di venticinque anni, si rende conto del "vuoto" che la vita gli sta proponendo in maniera alquanto ingiustificata. È questa nuova condizione vitale che egli non sa più gestire, e che lo rende "distaccato" da tutto quello che prima lo attirava. L'antica Illusione (di quando aveva mille speranze, mille certezze, mille sogni) cede ora il posto ad una Delusione smisurata quanto la sua disperata nostalgia verso un Tempo andato e che non riesce più a ritrovare.
