La piel del cielo

La piel del cielo

Premio Alfaguara de Novela 2001

Poniatowska, Elena

"Mom, does the world end back there?" This sentence opens the way to a fascinating story: that of a man of enormous talent destined to unravel the mysteries of astronomy. Lorenzo de Tena, non-conformist and rebellious, must fight against social inequalities, bureaucratic traps and political temptations to see his vocation come true. But the greatest challenges in the search for him will not come from science, but from the most hidden face of people, the one that hides passions and feelings. The skin of the sky is a story that, like a telescope, brings us closer to the most unattainable challenges: the stars and love.
