  1. LAS LAGRIMAS DE LA GIOCONDA

    http://laslagrimasdelagioconda.blogspot.com/

    Beyond LEONARDO DA VINCI, An Adventure for the hidden myths of creation.
    The book traces the mind of an orphan. He is taken by a young carpenter who does recognize on him a mirror. Together they live a symbiosis imaginary laden, and recognition. Its occurs in a poor locality of a modern city and a mythical Latin American town. Places where "The guts of pain are arrows that cross the wall of blood's scars; cross the hearth at the rhythm of the passion".

    The Gioconda is a unified abstraction of their lives, and plays a role for characters identification.
    
    Through his strange adventures the young achieves see how he is, and learn to value the social construction of their being. Notes that love is the fundamental feeling to give birth to a full life. It has endearing characters as a cat, an elderly woman wrapped in magic and concoctions, a passionate woman in love with the wrong man, a mythic couple of houses, and a subtle and passionate environment carrying. You can find different mind conditions, and other characters.

    You could begin the reading from the first chapter or from the second. The frame permits to board it without troubles, at the end of the book the reader will want to return to the first. It is simply a book that runs itself.

    Enjoy it
