Book 1

INDUCED ESTRANGEMENT

It is not overcoming.
It is permanence.

Between childhood and work,
between what is lived and what is imagined,
Daniel moves through a continuous sense of inadequacy —
not confirmed, but felt.

Memories of violence,
unspoken expectations,
interpretations that turn into pain.

Nothing is resolved.
Everything repeats.

Fragments of a life
observed by an internal presence: the Intimate.

What remains is not the event —
it is the effect...

8

Fear does not begin.
It continues.

It does not come from a single point.
It organizes itself in cycles.

It returns without warning,
without fixed form,
without confirmation.

The body learns before certainty.
It reacts before explanation.

What may happen
has already happened many times —
even without ever happening.

Nothing is resolved.
Fear only changes place.

And remains.

Lucidity between cracks

Seeing does not resolve.
It only exposes
the other.

The gaze that validates.
The gesture that is missing.

The constant attempt
to exist
through acceptance.

Relationships fail.
Or almost.

And that “almost” sustains everything.

Lucidity shows:
it is not about understanding.

It is about needing.

And continuing to need.

Book 2

I'M STRANGELY LUCID, A TRACE APART

Nothing is simply remembered.
Everything is examined.

The Intimate does not observe.
It interrogates.

And multiplies.

Each voice sustains a version.
None concludes.

Daniel responds
to what was not asked
at the right time.

What was not understood
returns.

What was not said
imposes itself later.

Lucidity arrives late.

And does not absolve.

Book 3

MAMMA.MINE

The body does not forget.
Even after,
it remains.

What was removed
is still felt.

Memory is not only recall.
It is presence.

Between childhood and family,
Daniel returns
to what did not pass.

Relationships do not resolve.
They repeat.

In marks.
In gestures.
In absences that remain in the body.

The Intimate no longer observes.
It leads.

And insists.

What remained
does not disappear.

It only changes form.
