Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product Description El Aqueronte se encuentra ni ms ni menos que en Los Himalayas. Exactamente en la Gruta del Toscano, en el Valle del Silencio, se pueden leer los mismos versos que Dante afirma haber ledo en la puerta del averno. En la bsqueda de este infierno dantesco se organizan varias expediciones. La primera, comandada por el Capitn ReissenMileto y secundada por la Quinta Compaa de Fusileros. La segunda, dirigida por el jesuita Mrio Gudino, quien muere inconfeso y renegando de Dios tras haber presenciado el horror de la gruta. Despus vendran otras, la de los italianos, la del gordo Marcus Gleeson que nunca volvi a ser visto (ni l, ni su globo) y, finalmente, la expedicin victoriosa, la china. En todas, como testigo o colaborador, Pasang Nuru Sherpa, el perfecto gua por su dominio de las tierras y de los idiomas. Encargados de ahondar en los pasos de cada uno de los aventureros, son los periodistas de la BBC quienes descubren la pista que desentraar un secreto mayor al que imaginaban. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In the plains of the Himalayas, many expeditions arrive every year, all with the same stubbornness and the same stupid pleasure to kill themselves in the mountain range. They all pay the price for their pride and negligence with the high altitude and cold weather. Many return mutilated by gangrene, blinded by the snow or feverish with diarrhea. But nothing dissuades these febrile beings in their eagerness to be first in arriving at the bottom of Toscano's Grotto, which could contain the nine circles of Dantes' inferno. It is said that its depths contains the exact same verses Dante read at the Gate of Hell. Padilla is an acclaimed author from literature's Crack Generation.
