Sobre IBD

Los seres humanos contamos historias para comprender el mundo, recordar lo importante y conversar sobre aquello que no siempre sabemos explicar de otro modo.Los cuentos de todos nuestros mundos reúne 50 relatos breves procedentes de distintas culturas, tradiciones y épocas: desde la antigua China, India, Grecia y el mundo bíblico hasta pueblos indígenas de América, África y las islas del Pacífico; desde historias transmitidas oralmente durante generaciones hasta relatos de autores como Hans Christian Andersen, León Tolstói y Franz Kafka.Aquí conviven la Torre de Babel, el sueño de la mariposa de Zhuang Zhou, Hinemoa cruzando el lago, Ícaro y Dédalo, Anansi, el buen samaritano, Odiseo frente a las sirenas y muchas historias menos conocidas que merecen seguir circulando.Cada relato está acompañado por un breve apartado que permite situarlo en su época, lugar y tradición, además de señalar imágenes, paradojas o claves que ayudan a recordarlo y volver a contarlo.No es un libro de moralejas. Las historias conservan su ambigüedad y pueden abrir preguntas diferentes según quién las cuente, quién las escuche y el momento en que aparezcan.Un libro para leer por placer, ampliar la cultura narrativa y construir un repertorio de historias al que volver cuando una conversación necesite una buena historia.
