Otra Vida del Fugitivo, La

Marcos de Quinto, known for his successful business career at the head of Coca-Cola, strips off his suit of great executive, revealing himself as an introspective poet who reconciles with himself. "The Other Life of the Fugitive" is a personal journey marked by vitalism and humanism from youth to maturity. Through episodes of his own life and a lyrical drive present in his daily life, de Quinto explores identity, loss, love and disillusionment in a discourse that underlies a dialectical tension between power and desire. This book addresses that other life that we all live inside ourselves as fugitives from social conventions and the expectations that hover over each other, in a poetic tale divided into three temporal parts: 'Youth', 'Maturity' and 'Strangeness'. "The Other Life of the Fugitive" reflects on loyalty to oneself, contradictions, frustrations and the construction of one's own biography. Each poem functions as an 'ink photograph', capturing an instant of the author's emotional and spiritual life at different times and places in the world, which imprints this book of poetry with a spirit of cosmopolitanism that feeds the reader's imagination and the image of the nomadic character of a definitively strange and atypical voice.
