Canto yo y la montaña baila es una novela en la que toman la palabra mujeres y hombres, fantasmas y mujeres de agua, nubes y setas, perros y corzos que habitan entre Camprodon y Prats de Molló, en los Pirineos. Una zona de alta montaña y de frontera que, más allá de la leyenda, conserva la memoria de siglos de lucha por la supervivencia, de persecuciones guiadas por la ignorancia y el fanatismo, de guerras fratricidas, pero que encarna también una belleza a la que no le hacen falta muchos adjetivos. Un terreno fértil para liberar la imaginación y el pensamiento, las ganas de hablar y de contar historias. Un lugar, quizás, para empezar de nuevo y encontrar cierta redención.
