The powerful impression this poetry collection leaves is a profound sense that the poet's work is born from alienation. It reflects a purely urban consciousness, with its hardships and individualism. The poet, as the narrator, embodies a self with a keen sense of individuality, making them a unique social being who observes the transformations affecting things in their daily and historical course. This distinguished 'self' views the world in its own way, capturing the paradox of its simple human existence within the ordinary, the everyday, and the narrated.
