Valerio Romao, in Foreword

"It's a book with a dichotomous current that polarizes between two fundamental experiences: sex and death (or, more appropriately, mortality)"

About the author

A. Miyajima about A. Mimura

"A. Mimura as a nocturnal feline, isn't silent, because his lust is cruel and destructive, but nevertheless fruitful; his spirit riots and falls in love by bodies hydraulics; and as a drinker cat, of Quintessences, is the enigmatic and magnetic carat of fire presence, a strange and beautiful fire, which marks his work. "

A.Mimura about A.Miyajima

"I looked with sympathy, admiration and fear the man, who just after a perilous journey, enlisted immediately in another, as if the ground burned his feet or as if his heart was searching for stillness for a violent passion that ended abruptly in any other port, in any distant shore, in any other love, in any other exile, so A.Miyajima poet was presented to me, and by which, and the immediate, feit intimate fascination and great friendship thus, and intimate sharing, held the strange profane song: Ketojin, the love dealer ".
