Un inolvidable viaje por España a través de sus catedrales, de los angeles mano de Julio Llamazares.

«Éste es un viaje en el tiempo y en l. a. geografía. En el tiempo, hacia l. a. época en l. a. que se construyeron esos maravillosos edificios que conocemos como catedrales; y, en los angeles geografía, a través de un país que es un mosaico de regiones tan diferentes como sus paisajes. Lo emprendí cuando empezaba el tercer milenio y lo acabaré algún día, después de haber recorrido todas las catedrales de ese país.

»La razón de que haya elegido las catedrales para este viaje es muy transparente: l. a. atracción que me han producido siempre esos fantásticos edificios que constituyen las cajas negras de nuestra historia. Conocerlas de verdad y no de paso, vivir dentro de ellas un día para sentir toda su belleza, al tiempo que se descubren sus secretos y leyendas, es lo que he hecho desde hace años para contárselo a mis lectores.

»A deshojarlas como si fueran rosas de piedra, enormes rosas arquitectónicas surgidas hace cientos de años, he dedicado este libro. Y todo ello sin otra voluntad que los angeles viajera y sin otra intención que los angeles literaria. Esa que sigue los angeles estela de los antiguos viajeros, aquellos que iban buscando l. a. magia que el mundo ofrece a los que lo andan.»
Julio Llamazares
