About the Book

Irene Vallejo da una nueva vida a otra historia del mundo clásico. La travesía de una ávida viajera por los mundos que imagina es tan disparatada como divertida,y así lo plasma el ilustrador José Luis Cano A partir del clásico grecorromano Historias verdaderas, de Luciano de Samósata, Irene Vallejo vuelve a hacer su magia con un cuento para lectores de cualquier edad deseosos de mantener viva su imaginación. La autora se basa en esta antigua parodia de los relatos de navegantes y recupera una ingeniosa historia llena de mundos fantásticos y criaturas tan inconcebibles como los calabazapiratas y los pulgarqueros. De la mano de la protagonista, aprenderemos qué hacer cuando te traga una ballena, daremos alas a nuestra fantasía para descubrir nuevos lugares y lucharemos en las batallas más insospechadas a favor de la justicia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Irene Vallejo breathes new life into another classic story. The journey of an eager traveler through the worlds she imagines is as absurd as it is entertaining, and this sentiment is beautifully captured by illustrator José Luis Cano.   Based on the Greco-Roman classic A True Story by Lucian of Samosata, Irene Vallejo once again works her magic with a tale for readers of all ages who wish to keep their imaginations alive. The author draws from this ancient parody of sailors' tales, reviving a clever story filled with fantastical worlds and unimaginable creatures like pumpkin pirates and thumb-sized warriors.   Guided by the protagonist, we’ll learn what to do when swallowed by a whale, we’ll let our imagination soar to discover new places, and fight in the most unexpected battles in the name of justice.

About the Author :
Atraída desde la infancia por las leyendas de Grecia y Roma, Irene Vallejo (Zaragoza, 1979) estudió Filología Clásica y obtuvo el Doctorado Europeo por las Universidades de Zaragoza y Florencia. En las bibliotecas florentinas nació su ensayo El infinito en un junco (2019), que ha recibido una extraordinaria acogida entre crítica y lectores, convertido ya en un éxito editorial internacional. Reconocido en España con el Premio Nacional de Ensayo, el Premio ‘El Ojo Crítico’ de Narrativa, el Premio Wenjin de la Biblioteca Nacional de China, el Premio Internacional de Ensayo Henríquez Ureña de la Academia Mexicana de la Lengua, el Premio ‘Librerías Recomiendan’ del Gremio de Librerías, el de las ‘Librerías de Madrid’, el galardón ‘Líder Humanista’, el premio ‘José Antonio Labordeta’, el Premio ‘Antonio Sancha’ de los Editores, así como el Premio Aragón 2021, entre otros, ha alcanzado 45 ediciones, se traduce a treinta y cinco idiomas y se está publicando en más de cincuenta países. Apasionada por la divulgación de los autores clásicos, colabora con prestigiosos medios como El País, Heraldo de Aragón o Cadena Ser en España, y Milenio y Laberinto en México. Sus artículos han sido recopilados en Alguien habló de nosotros (2017) y El futuro recordado (2020). Entre sus obras de ficción, destacan La luz sepultada (2011) y El silbido del arquero (2015), peculiar novela histórica con ecos homéricos y virgilianos, también traducida a varios idiomas. Ha publicado dos álbumes ilustrados: El inventor de viajes (2014), junto al artista José Luis Cano, y La leyenda de las mareas mansas (2015), con la pintora Lina Vila, acercando las leyendas clásicas a los lectores jóvenes. A finales de 2020, publicó el breve Manifiesto de la Lectura (2020) por encargo del Gremio de Editores.
