La metáfora del mirlo se presenta como un diario de días inciertos en los que la vida parece haberse detenido y las jornadas se suceden casi iguales sin confundirse gracias a la luz especial de cada una, siempre diferente. Aunque en él hay anotaciones propias de la vida cotidiana, el texto presta más atención a la meditación sobre la construcción del mundo actual y la crispación de la sociedad sometida a fuertes tensiones ideológicas y de convivencia, sobre la que triunfa un sentido colectivo de generosa solidaridad. La vida detenida procura también la reflexión sobre el mundo cultural y la literatura, la relación del ser humano con la naturaleza, el recuerdo de otros tiempos y la evocación de todos los paisajes vividos en un texto escrito con clara vocación literaria.
