El perfume del viento

“I picked up my colorful ball
and asked her about Mr. Jacobo.
‘He left,’ said the woman.
Although I already knew, I asked:
‘To go where?’
‘Far away,’ she said.
Although I already knew, I asked:
‘Will he come back?’”
Between the scent of the wind and the memory of those eternal afternoons that are the wealth of childhood and old age, Triunfo Arciniegas, one of the most versatile authors in Colombian literature, offers an encounter between generations around those difficult questions that we all have to ask at some point. Illustrator Juan Camilo Mayorga joins the conversation to take this poetic universe to a place where it is possible to scrutinize new details, stories, and emotions.
