The eye of the reader penetrates a world of disappointments, joys and surprises that make up the conflicting existence of Francisco Binerfa, whose literary career culminates with a questionable award. His life is a perpetual journey to the most unusual of places that offer him insights into the future and eternity. Protected by his gods, he exists critical trances unscathed, passing easily from the sublime to the ridiculous. But the fundamental lesson the author wants his reader to leave with is that all human action is part of a game mankind invents on a daily basis to give weight and meaning to his brief existence.</span></em>
