Chapter Four: Grey

Chapter Four: Darklight > A differenza di ogni altro mezzo giorno dedicato alla corsa, quel venerdì d’inizio primavera portò con sé colore grigio ed aria graffiante. Red, occhiali sul naso e musica in cuffia, montò in sella e raggiunse l’anello asfaltato dov’era solito allenarsi due volte la settimana: la noiosa costanza del percorso eliminava ogni variabile oltre a sé stesso. Adorava correre per via della sua inerente qualità meditativa: l’atto di forzare il corpo a muoversi nello spazio consentiva di ancorare nel presente una mente mai ferma nel tempo.

Chapter One: Night

Chapter One: Night > The alarm clock went off at 04:30 a.m. Red remained dozed in his bed for some time, while the pale moon light passed through the semi-closed shutters of his bedroom window. He had always kept them this way, day and night, because he enjoyed living in an ambience of constant dim light: no absolutes of brightness or darkness. When Red’s drowsiness wore off, he stayed still to enjoy the cosiness of his duvet for a little longer; it was the middle of spring, but a rather cold one.  At five o’clock, he finally…
