Today more than ever, homeland is not the place where you are born, but the place where you choose to live. Often, one perceives a person as their homeland. The tourist, as a stateless person by choice, forming loose and harmless ties with countries and collecting travel experiences, is an unconscious model of modern lovers. The tourist of a romantic place is also an expert in collecting the top-ten of each destination, that is, perceiving each romantic other in a fragmented and fetishistic way. This type of perception is also revealed in art, which, as a mirror of society, reflects and simultaneously reshapes it.
The book at hand believes in another type of traveler (and focuses on its rarity): an amateur traveler who maintains his core, his essence, who opens up to emotional depth and to the saving illusion of duration in time. He is none other than the Lover, the one who possesses and is possessed by the mystery that brings the subject back to the center of his existence.
This work is the topography of an imaginary homeland, designed by three essayists who insist on swearing by art and love within a torn country. The reader holds in their hands three studies on three forms of art: visual arts, literature, and cinema. In all three studies, love is perceived as a triple force: Sexuality-Eroticism-Spirituality.
