The Old House's Poet

Book excerpt: Among so many old things inside the oldest large house of Terra Nova, Raquel finds many lost poems long forgotten in time. She also finds other poems in different places with various people. The starting point of this story is about the interest of the main character from this book into unclosing a mystery: Who is or who was the old house’s poet? Between this plot, one question we frequently ask ourselves. Are the time and the love a perfect couple or enemies? I advance that I have no answer for this question in this book, though the reader can reflect and get to their own conclusions. What we know is that in many cases the time can be a hope for those who seek to live a great love, that is, even if today the circumstances aren’t positive, it's waited to be living a great love with intensity on the long run. Now for others, time can be negative, since if love is too late it can be suffocated or even murdered by the social standards and the people who can’t accept the fact of two individuals living their love story, forbidden or not. The character Raquel will take the reader to a trip into the poems found in the old house. The said poet was depending exclusively on time to be able to live the great love of his life. He found on the poems a way to encode his messages, his desires and to proclaim the love he felt for his beloved. He suffered with the dismissal, the distance and the circumstance. On the other hand, he found joy in hope and the fact of being loved by his other half. Love and time. Two words that can mean so much. Passion and poetry also stand for strength and magic. Let the love lived by the poet shows you that many times we must fight to live the passion and not leave it for later, it can be too late. Learn with Raquel the significance of preserving the history of old times, but above all, of keeping alive a beautiful love story!
