"Grief is a dark, mysterious, almost inaccessible territory. A shock that surprises us, catches us off guard, and changes our surroundings in an instant. No matter how prepared we think we are to face a loss, that preparation will never be enough. When it happens, everything crumbles, and for a while, nothing makes sense. Something breaks within us, the world collapses, revealing its cruelest aspect."

With these words, Gabriel Rolón describes the path to be traveled in his new essay: loss. Yes, death, without beating around the bush (our own and that of those we love), but also the unexpected lack (or not so much) of everything that keeps us anchored to life. The loss of a job, a partner, a home, recognition from others, and even youth push us into mourning. And it is there, in that moment when pain becomes flesh and grief devours words, that Gabriel Rolón shares his sharp, precise, and always lucid reflection. That's why his new book draws from mythology and music, from cinema and literature, from clinical cases to analytic theory. Because it's a perspective that delves into suffering while exploring the mechanisms that Psychoanalysis as a discipline, and art as a way of understanding the world, offer as bridges to overcome absence. Rolón is as clear as he is firm on this: grief is an intimate "war." Perhaps the toughest test, one that confronts us with what we have lost and what we can create from the lost. A wild battle that transforms us once and for all. In its merciless course, it leads us towards a rebirth that makes us more human.
