Summary

José Saramago narra el insólito viaje del elefante Salomón a través de la Europa del siglo XVI.

Escucha esta aventura épica llena de humanidad, humor y sabiduría.

«Siempre acabamos llegando a donde nos esperan.»
LIBRO DE LOS ITINERARIOS

A mediados del siglo XVI el rey Juan III ofrece a su primo, el archiduque Maximiliano de Austria, un elefante asiático. Esta novela cuenta el viaje épico de ese elefante llamado Salomón que tuvo que recorrer Europa por caprichos reales y absurdas estrategias.

El viaje del elefante no es un libro histórico, es una combinación de hechos reales e inventados que nos hace sentir la realidad y la ficción como una unidad indisoluble, como algo propio de la gran literatura. Una reflexión sobre la humanidad en la que el humor y la ironía, marcas de la implacable lucidez del autor, se unen a la compasión con la que José Saramago observa las flaquezas humana.

Escrita diez años después de la concesión del Premio Nobel, El viaje del elefante nos muestra a un Saramago en todo su esplendor literario. Escúchala ahora en formato audiolibro.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
