A story of courage, resilience, love, and above all, what war takes away from childhood. In 1937, during the Spanish civil war, thousands of Spanish children embarked on a journey with a one-way ticket to the USSR. Among them was Mauricio, a miner’s son with the soul of a poet, who seeked to find beauty in this journey through his verses. And he found it in Magdalena, a well-to-do city girl who dreamt of studying medicine. Amid the rocking waves and under a starry sky, Mauricio and Magdalena discover that love can bloom even in the darkest of horrors. Twenty years later, after the devastation of World War II in Europe, Magdalena returned to Spain, but she has never been able to forget the sad-eyed poet that gave her the sea—and stole her heart.

More than a century after his death, Jules Verne’s novels continue to fascinate readers of all ages. He was a true literary pioneer, instrumental in launching the science fiction and adventure genres. In this volume, his work gains new expression at the hands of another pioneer, this time in the field of illustration, Barcelona’s Chamo San. His wildly creative works breathe new life into Verne’s stories, giving them a new dimension. The resulting alchemy between the two artists is a worthy tribute to the French author’s fervid imagination.

The reality is that only thirteen stories are needed to destroy a city. New edition with unpublished photographs by the author. In this compilation of stories, it is revealed that a parallel universe inhabits the streets of Bogotá, the same one that hides behind the shadows that cover the city every morning, when the sky is already blue, but the sun is still hidden behind the mountains. Bogotá survives on the edge of light and finds itself on the brink of the abyss, where the sinister, the paranormal, and the everyday mix and mercilessly stalk its inhabitants.
