Una grieta abierta espontáneamente a lo largo de los Pirineos provoca la separación del continente europeo de toda la Península Ibérica, transformándola en una gran isla flotante, moviéndose sin remos, ni velas, ni hélices en dirección al sur del mundo, camino de una utopía nueva: el encuentro cultural de los pueblos peninsulares con los pueblos del otro lado del Atlántico, desafiando así el dominio sofocante que Estados Unidos viene ejerciendo en aquellos territorios.

In Gotham, Edwin G.

It is an epic narrative, a story as vast and as varied as the city it chronicles, and it underscores that the history of New York is the story of our nation. The events and people who crowd this audiobook guarantee that this is no mere local history. It is in fact a portrait of the heart and soul of America....
