Detailed information

Del encuentro extraordinario entre un narrador -e intelectual, ensayista, filósofo...-(Umberto Eco) y un artista (Eugenio Carmi), nacen estas tres historias sobre el respeto y la esperanza, escritas e ilustradas para los amantes de las fábulas.

"Ahora ya sabían que en la Tierra
como en los demás planetas,
para gustos están los colores,
y lo importante es que nos entendamos."

"La bomba y el general"
Los átomos encerrados en una bomba nuclear se rebelan ante el general que quiere desencadenar una guerra con el arsenal acumulado en su buhardilla.

"Los tres cosmonautas"
Tres cosmonautas, un estadounidense, un ruso y un chino, compiten entre sí por ser los mejores en su misión a Marte. No se entienden ni se gustan hasta que un marciano de seis manos les hace entrar en razón.

"Los gnomos de Gnù"
Un emperador presuntuoso envía a un explorador con la misión de civilizar a un pequeño planeta inocente y feliz. Un libro especial y bellísimo que es un homenaje a Umberto Eco, una joya única de su universo creativo, ilustrada por el artista Eugenio Carmi.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From an extraordinary meeting between a storyteller - Intellectual, essayist, and philosopher- (Umberto Eco), and an artist (Eugenio Carmi), these three stories about respect and hope come alive, written and illustrated especially for those who love fables."Now they knew that on Earth as in any other planet, there are different strokes for different folks, the important thing is to get along."

In "The Bomb and the General," the atoms living inside a nuclear bomb rebel against the general who wants to start a war with the arsenal he stores in his attic. In "The Three Astronauts," an American, a Russian, and a Chinese astronaut compete to see which one of them is the best on their missions to Mars. They don't get along or even like each other, until a six-handed Martian makes them all recapitulate. In "The Gnomes of Gnu", an arrogant emperor sends an explorer with the mission of civilizing an innocent and happy little planet.

A beautiful book which is a tribute to Umberto Eco, a unique treasure from his creative universe illustrated by the artist Eugenio Carmi.
