A luminous reflection on the act of writing. A writer begins a notebook with exercises to improve his handwriting in the conviction that, by improving it, his character will also improve. What is intended to be a mere physical exercise will involuntarily fill with reflections and anecdotes about living, coexistence, writing, the sense or non-sense of existence.
