Synopsis "Una Luz Inesperada / An Unexpected Light (in Spanish)"

Un brillante álbum ilustrado, con la obra de José Saramago que conmemora el centenario de su nacimiento. «El mito del paraíso perdido es el de la infancia, no hay otro. Lo demás son realidades por conquistar, soñadas en el presente, guardadas en el futuro inalcanzable. Y, sin ellas, no sé qué haríamos hoy. Yo no lo sé. El paraíso perdido de la infancia de este narrador se centra en los dos días gloriosos en que fue ayudante de pastor y acompañó a su tío a llevar al mercado unos pequeños lechones. El camino, la noche, el día, el viento... una aventura inolvidable se narra en este poético relato de José Saramago, acompañado por preciosas ilustraciones de Armando Fonseca. Un libro ideal para regalar a todos los que todavía llevan un niño en el alma. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A magnificent picture book by José Saramago commemorating the 100 year anniversary of his birth. «The myth of a lost paradise is that of one's childhood, there is no other. The rest are realities yet to be conquered, dreamed of in the present, and stored in the unattainable future. And without them, I don't know what we would do today. I do not know. The lost paradise of this narrator's childhood focuses on the two glorious days when he was a shepherd's assistant and helped his uncle take some small piglets to the market. The journey, the night, the day, the wind... This poetic story is an unforgettable adventure narrated by José Saramago and presented alongside Armando Fonseca's beautiful illustrations. A perfect book to gift all those who still carry a child in their soul.

Hay experiencias en la niñez que marcan nuestra experiencia vital y definen aspectos de nuestro carácter como adultos. Precisamente eso le ocurre al narrador de Una luz inesperada quien a los doce años emprendió la aventura de acompañar a su tío por caminos veredales para llegar a una feria con el propósito de vender unos marranitos. En sus dos días de gloria, el niño se hizo más sensible al entorno y gozó de todo: el camino, los árboles, el viento, el dia y, muy especialmente, la noche. Eso lo sabemos gracias al texto del gran Saramago, pero en este libro álbum, además se puede palmar gracias a las bellísimas ilustraciones de Armando Fonseca, que son un poco rupestres, un poco modernas, cargadas de negro, pero no por eso carentes de luz. Una luz inesperada se publicó originalmente en el periódico portugués Jornal do Fundão bajo el título E também aqueles dias (Y también aquellos días).
