Il nuovo libro di F. Guzzardi, pubblicato per Hoffmann  & Hoffmann, e` un romanzo in bilico fra un saggio esoterico ed un sogno. 
Ambientato a New York, il narratore di questo sogno e` uno scrittore francese, Jean Luc Dupuy, il quale si trovera`, spinto dalla curiosita` di conoscere le verita celate di un vecchio libro esoterico, in uno scenario di ingannevoli figure che attraverseranno la sua vita per il tempo di un insegnamento. Sullo sfondo di una New York notturna e romantica, si incroceranno le vite di alcuni esseri, senza nessuna apparente affinita`, che cambieranno per sempre la vita di Jean.
"Da bambino ascoltavo i rumori delle maree, abitavamo a Nizza. A volte mio padre mi portava a pescare e non prendevamo mai niente, tanto che ben presto cominciai a domandarmi perché mi portasse sugli scogli a pescare d’inverno. Finché una volta mi decisi a chiederglielo e lui mi rispose ridendo: Se stai in silenzio per dieci minuti, forse lo capirai!"
Ed un giorno provai a farlo, fu il giorno della sua morte. Andai da solo nel solito posto dove andavamo a pesca, avevo diciotto anni, e mi sedetti sullo scoglio dove andavamo d’abitudine. Chiusi gli occhi e regolai il respiro in maniera ritmica, fino ad arrivare a provare una calma assoluta. Rimasi ad ascoltare il suono delle maree e mi parve di sentire voci e musica, e poi lontane voci e lontane musiche. Ripercorsi la mia giovane vita nell’arco di pochi minuti. Poi i ricordi riportarono indietro la voce di mio padre e le sue risate, la sua schiuma da barba, e tutto ciò che era penetrato nei pori della mia anima. Persino i suoi dischi preferiti e le danze con mia madre. Pensai a come la vita sia inutilmente vana, senza senso, malgrado tutti i nostri sforzi per inventarne uno… uno a caso che non faccia troppo male.

26 giorni, il tempo per ritrovare l' Io piu` profondo e ristabilire l' esatto senso delle cose che ognuno di noi ha perso nascendo.
