		Paz’s non-fiction prose essays exhibit abstract descriptions and are equally as complex as his poetry, but the central focuses of his writing become more apparent in his prose work, because his personal reflections and inner beliefs are revealed in his analyses of culture and society.
		Paz agrees that one of the causes of the solitude of Mexico is the suppressed feeling of inferiority Mexicans direct toward the United States.

		Paz's sober inquiry into the weirdness and horror of Sade does not titillate, seek to shock, or flirt with kinky absurdities.
