Somos nosotros los que estamos aquí ahora

The philosophy of life of the author of El mundo de Sofía in an essay that is both a personal story and an attempt to understand the current world. In this fascinating story, Jostein Gaarder starts from the questions he asked himself as a child when he began to be aware of the existence of the world -"Isn't it strange that we are alive? That the world exists?"-, and that helped him to place the Earth in the Universe, with all that this implies, to consider new and urgent questions related to the environment, sustainability, human relations, religion, ageing, life and death. And through his analysis, with the experience and knowledge that has given him life and his literary work, he points to what is and will be our most important challenge: How are we going to preserve human civilization and livelihoods? same of our own planet?
