I lent it to my nephew a few years ago Cali and I liked it so much I wanted to buy it, but not encontré.Un day, I went to a bookstore in Sheikin, Tel Aviv, and there was and in Hebrew, I wanted to give a Castilian amigo.En, ever.
refers to the description of many cities of the Mughal Empire, the Great Khan description called Marco Polo, the emperor's favorite talks, where you would just listen to wonderful stories to ignite your spirit and mind.
The Venetian Khan recounted to what was seen by the world, but above all, what only he saw, and then was referred to Mr. : a maze of city invented.
His language is simple, pleasant to read and is an almost architectural description fantasized cities where intersects magic and wonder.
In fact, it seems that is related to The Book of Wonders , the actual Marco Polo.
Its author, Italo Calvino, in his belief that man can create worlds, but not destroy the living hell that is all around us, tried to alienate their readers of the implacable and closer to the world of fantasy and imagination.
As I read, I bask in their beautiful, simple pages.
Gradually, I began to think that it was only in these descriptions: the painting of a city, leading to a reflection on oneself, one's own inner journey.
Finally today, motivated by fond memories of this reading, I finished reading Calvin's opinion about the book: " I have written something like a last love poem to the cities, where increasingly difficult to live them as cities "...
is a very pretty book, you may want to read it ... maybe you like too.
