This entire book - to every word, to every punctuation mark - is permeated with Love-Passion - hot, sunny, equatorial. This is what true love should be, the reader will think, this is what I want from life. This is how one should love a woman, the reader will think, which means one must be able to see in her a woman-dream, a woman-flower!.. We boldly affirm: none of those who have read the book by Rene Depestre will remain indifferent and will not be able to look at love as a pipe dream of poets or as a boring everyday duty.
