What if fiction could express not just a story—but a path? A tension, a transformation, a truth hidden in form?

In Miguel A. Fernández’s body of work, fiction is never an escape—it is a mirror, a cipher, and a pulse. His two fictional works—The Solar Doctrine and The Soul of the Sea—serve as twin gateways into the inner dimension of his philosophical, ecological, and existential inquiry.

A Metaphysical Allegory

This novella is a mystical journey through light and darkness, where the ancient codes of tradition meet the inner fire of transformation. Set in an undefined landscape that is both symbolic and sacred, The Solar Doctrine distills a worldview: that human beings are not machines, but vessels of vertical force, capable of reawakening the divine within.
Its form is distilled, aphoristic, and rich in archetype—closer to The Prophet or Thus Spoke Zarathustra than to conventional narrative fiction. It connects directly to Operative Traditions and The Solar Warrior, offering a poetic synthesis of their core metaphysical insights.

A Lyrical Realist Novel

Set in Galicia during the early 2000s, this novel is rooted in real places, lived memory, and emotional depth. It explores the clash between a technocratic worldview and the subtle intelligence of the sea—embodied by Ariadna, a woman whose presence awakens the protagonist’s forgotten longing.
More autobiographical in tone and psychologically nuanced, The Soul of the Sea serves as a bridge between the personal and the ecological, between inner loss and outer disaster (the 2002 Prestige oil spill). It resonates with the core mission of Fondo Natural: to protect the sacred continuity between humanity and the biosphere.

A Shared Pulse

Though stylistically different—one symbolic, the other realistic—both works reflect the same fundamental struggle:
To resist fragmentation. To honor what cannot be measured. To remember what makes us human.
Together, these two books reveal the fictional soul behind Miguel A. Fernández’s wider journey: from world-record physical feats, to environmental activism, to deep philosophical synthesis. Whether you enter through parable or personal memory, both texts invite you to rediscover the formative fire that shapes all authentic paths.
