Synopsis "El Niño Descalzo / The Barefoot Child"
La alegría de vivir se fija en la infancia; toda la vida posterior procede de ese primer pálpito de la mirada sobre lo que sucede. Este libro narra dos infancias: la del nieto y la del autor, el abuelo.

Como si lo llevara de la mano a través de la galería de sus recuerdos, el abuelo habla del primer amor, de un cuchillo y del mundo entero.

The two intertwine in a simple investigation about the surprise with which a child begins his relationship with others and with reality: numbers, an elevator, the day, the sea, goodbyes. It's like being led by the hand through a gallery of his memories as the grandfather talks about his first love, about a knife, and about the whole world...
