The conceptual backbone of the book is a list of 25 keywords, which are explored in precise short-form essays by many contributors. The book also contains a section with reprints of seminal texts by Samuel Beckett, Georges Didi-Huberman, and Carlos Drummond de Andrade.
The 11 booklets that conform this publication have been bound in different order for each book, creating each time a new set of references and connections between the entries of the glossary and the featured works.
