About the book: 2020 / A young writer, music critic, moonlighting as a journalist in England, goes overseas to Canada to change his life for the better. There he is offered a job, and, walking along a new path, he is full of hope and wants to break out of the half-dead state in which he feels himself. But the first things at his new job destroy all his expectations: meeting in turn with two extraordinary guitarists in order to write a brilliant article about each, he encounters a real idea that there is sound and silence in the world, that there is movement and stillness of life, that there is inner and the external of the human soul. Two meetings, so different and exciting, will make him feel between fire and ice, experience real life for the first time, learning what it can be and how it can be completed.
