SYNOPSIS

Palim VI is the son of one of the builders on the Tower of Babel, and he discovers his immortality when he survives the fire at the Babylon library. From then on, he adopts a nomadic life that takes him from Homer’s Greece to the Spain of Felipe III, tsarist Russia, 1920s Paris, and a Buenos Aires that is polluted with fantastical and culturalist writers. On his journey the reader will meet some of Western literature’s greatest male authors – Homer, Virgil, Dante, Cervantes, Shakespeare, Molière, Goethe, Flaubert, Dostoyevsky, Joyce, Kafka, Faulkner and Borges – and discover details of lives and work through his story, as he talks, works and argues with them to uncover the keys of their literary creativity and their genius.
