This legend transports us to that tormented and threatening world common to Romanticism, in which Becquer moves with familiarity and mastery. The suggestive narrative voice invites us to enjoy a story with the flavor of the past, in a magnificently realized setting, which produces a shiver which owes as much to pleasure as to fear. Javier Serrano’s impressive illustrations complement the text appropriately with his solid and ominous vision.
