Far away and long ago there was a lumberjack who became king, and an emperor who fortified the borders of his realm before searching for the meaning of life, and then there was a man who couldn’t help saying everything he was thinking and another who put his pickaxe right through a mountain, and all this without forgetting Elisa, the terror of the forest, or Dindán the elf, who carries our dreams at night to the ends of the world...
This brief description outlines some of the stories from the collection Los Bosques Perdidos, The Lost Woodlands, but is only one of the many possible interpretations of the details and levels of meaning to be found in them.
Set in the fantasy world of the Middle Ages, these stories are conceived to transport young readers to realms of intense adventures in surroundings sometimes mysterious, others amusing, magical or exotic, where adults too will recognize references to certain fundamental issues, because the author brings out the full potential of the short story. He has been a finalist in this category in the XII Repsol Short Story Awards and the VI Concurso de Relatos Acumán.
