No final do século XIX, Joris-Karl Huysmans percorreu as ruas de Paris e deu vida àquilo que parecia comum: o barulho das carroças, os anúncios de jornal e os gestos apressados dos transeuntes. Em Esboços de Paris, o autor reúne poemas em prosa e textos breves que registram o dia a dia de uma cidade em plena modernização. A partir de cenas fugazes do cotidiano—em cabarés, bailes, cafés e interiores domésticos—Huysmans transforma o banal em literatura.

Una de las características culturales de esta época es la poca importancia que se le presta a los mitos en la vida cotidiana. No los reconocemos como formas de expresar verdades significativas. Mesetas de espejos es un libro de imágenes, de reflejos (individuales y colectivos) que a través de relatos y fábulas intenta darnos alguna idea de dónde estamos en la Tierra y dónde podemos terminar. Es decir, Mesetas de espejos no es lineal, pero sí coherente y personal; un texto que dialoga con obras literarias, cine, política, filosofía y arte.
