El Quixot al Congo

Throughout more than 4,700 kilometers, the Congo River, the essence of the wealth and scars of an entire continent, is an open door to the history, culture and traditions of the peoples who inhabit its banks. Xavier Aldekoa has traveled the great African river from its sources to its mouth to delve into the reality of a rich, wounded and vital region. "For more than two months of navigation I was Sancho Panza. Like the squire of the greatest novel of chivalry ever written, I was a fascinated witness of that unknown world that opened before me, crossing a quixotic river, almost mystical, that entered bravely and reckless in an impassable jungle to build an extraordinary story in his wake".
