The Roader

This book is a philosophical-existential novel, written in an introspective and symbolic tone. The author narrates the story of a character called "El Andante", who represents an almost mythical figure that goes through a path of self-discovery, knowledge and spirituality. Through childhood stories, deep reflections and life experiences, he reveals an inner journey in search of meaning, truth and connection with the transcendent.
In the prologue, the author confesses that he wrote the book as a way of channeling a very difficult moment in his life. The Andante is a sort of alter ego that becomes the author's own guide and mirror. The style is very descriptive, poetic and full of symbolism, with esoteric and philosophical influences.
The Andante is faced with a very singular task for which he does not believe he is prepared, but with his way of seeing life, he takes on the challenge and therefore begins to investigate through books sent to him from the capital by a student.
Initially the Andante feels lost because he does not understand the purpose of his choice or the mission he has been entrusted with, but little by little he begins to feel an enormous curiosity that the books he reads awaken in him, about the meaning of life, the reason for existence and the implications of his own life in relation to the universe and creation.
For years, the Andante goes up to the plateau every Friday to tell the little man about his readings and the reflections he extracts from them, and this learning experience and the questions he asks himself, lead the reader to reflect on his own life as well.
Throughout the book, the author explains about surprising realities such as reincarnation, the law of cause and effect, causality and all those questions that a human being faces in life. leer todo...
