Vignettes and illustrations that open new literary worlds. Here is a small selection to look for among the booths of the Retiro Park.
From a key couple to understand tragedy (the Machado brothers) to another to understand comedy (Mortadelo y Filemón), through reprints of legendary titles by Joe Sacco (Palestina) and Oesterheld (El eternauta) or new illustrated versions of classics of world literature (Alice in Wonderland, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde), we offer a dozen suggestions for those who think that books are much more than text.
After ‘Lorca, un poeta en Nueva York’ and ‘Las tres heridas de Miguel Hernández,’ Carles Esquembre completes his trilogy dedicated to the writers of the silver age of our country's literature with a kind of fictional Greco-Latin theater where the lives of two brothers who embodied the conflicts that tore Spain apart are portrayed.
