Cataluña de leyenda

relatos mágicos y leyendas asombrosas de Cataluña

Alcalá, César

Since time immemorial, the stories and legends of Catalonia have woven a magical fabric, which has largely shaped its essence and personality. Some emerged to illuminate miraculous events, while others are woven with morals that fuel popular curiosity with touches of superstition. Rooted in the daily life of the various Catalan towns and cities, these stories have endured over time, enriching generations with their eternal mysteries. Long before the tales of the Brothers Grimm or Hans Christian Andersen reached our hands, in this ancient land mysterious stories were already whispered in the ear: What moved the ghost hunter who wandered around Montjuïc? How did the fairy of Riells del Fai disappear? Who put an end to the reign of the dragon of Sant Llorenç de Munt? What enigmatic creature did the Virgin of Tagamanent find? Who was the unfortunate executioner of Barcelona? What secrets does the shadow of cannibalism keep in Cardedeu? Or what is the mystery behind the carasses or those hanging in the churches? César Alcalá unravels these intriguing stories, revealing the threads that made up the unique tapestry of Catalonia's magical history. Now, in your hands you have the opportunity to reveal these and many other unknowns, and delve into the very heart of Catalan history, where the amazing and the enigmatic are intertwined in a kaleidoscope of fabulous and unforgettable legends.
