Una historia hecha de muchas historias. ¿Cuál es exactamente la historia de España? La historia de España puede explicarse a través de la épica, de los grandes momentos que marcaron un antes y un despues: puede ser la llegada de Colon a America o la voz de la Pasionaria, el imperio donde no se ponia el sol o el desastre de la Armada Invencible. Pero tambien puede ser mucho mas de lo que imaginamos. Puede ser las redes de apoyo de La Cofradia de Pescadoras de Bermeo, la lucha de las heroinas de Numancia o la tenacidad de la huelga de la Canadiense. Puede ser un viaje lleno de grandes gestas y pequeños logros, de luces y sombras, de solidaridad, conflicto, comunidad y resistencia, y de realidades que pocas veces se han explicado. Acompaña al guionista, dibujante y profesor de historia Pedro Cifuentes en este recorrido apasionante por la compleja formacion de nuestro pais. Un comic que desmitifica, cuestiona y revela las multiples caras de un territorio en constante transformacion. Descubre la historia de España que nunca se han atrevido a contarte.

Like a long winters dream, this haunting and visionary new novel from 2024 Nobel Prize winner Han Kang takes us on a journey from contemporary South Korea into its painful historyBeginning one morning in December, We Do Not Part traces the path of Kyungha as she travels from the city of Seoul into the forests of Jeju Island, to the home of her old friend Inseon. Hospitalized following an accident, Inseon has begged Kyungha to hasten there to feed her beloved pet bird, who will otherwise die.Kyungha takes the first plane to Jeju, but a snowstorm hits the island the moment she arrives, plunging her into a world of white. Beset by icy wind and snow squalls, she wonders if she will arrive in time to save the bird or even survive the terrible cold which envelops her with every step. As night falls, she struggles her way to Inseons house, unaware as yet of the descent into darkness which awaits her.There, the long-buried story of Inseons family surges into light, in dreams and memories passed from mother to daughter, and in a painstakingly assembled archive documenting a terrible massacre on the island seventy years before.We Do Not Part is a hymn to friendship, a eulogy to the imagination and above all an indictment against forgetting.
