Description: "You can write for fame, and you can write for Art. You can write for science or to give voice to the spirit. It is written to claim to exist or for an instinctive need to communicate. Each writing has its own motif, and in each writing there is an autobiography, of content or style. But it can also be written in the name of someone else, to respond to the expectation of those who have never dared to express themselves, to satisfy a need that has been repressed for years, to respond with unforgivable delay to the frustration of those to whom history has not given a voice. Or they have chosen spontaneously not to have a voice, out of modesty, out of cowardice, in order not to renew the pain, or out of simple human shame. One can write, then, to justify oneself, to oneself and to others, and to pay off a debt with one's own history,with their ancestry, with the memory of their loved ones, and with their own conscience". --English translation of text on back cover of book
