Synopsis

This collection gathers a thousand playful 'thoughts' that serve as potential answers to the question: 'What are you thinking about?' Neither a true fiction nor a disguised autobiography, this book doesn't seem to deliver a single message. The themes explored are as varied as our fleeting thoughts, often touching on love, sexuality, or death, but also on animal behavior or driving on a country road.
