Este libro sobre libros emprende un nuevo vuelo en forma de adaptaci�n gr� ca a cargo del dibujante Tyto Alba, cuyas excepcionales ilustraciones nos trasladan a los campos de batalla de Alejandro Magno, los palacios de Cleopatra, las primeras librer�as y los talleres de copia manuscrita, pero tambi�n a las hogueras donde ardieron c�dices prohibidos, la biblioteca bombardeada de Sarajevo y el laberinto subterr�neo de Oxford en el a�o 2000. Estos dibujos y acuarelas, que cuentan la historia de un artefacto incomparable nacido hace cinco milenios, cuando los egipcios descubrieron el potencial de un junco al que llamaron papiro, nos hacen part�cipes de la aventura colectiva de quienes han salvaguardado los libros desde entonces. �Un precioso testimonio de amor por los cl�sicos, los libros, las bibliotecas y la lectura�. Nuccio Ordine ENGLISH DESCRIPTION ONE OF THE MOST REVELATORY ESSAYS OF OUR TIMES, ADAPTED INTO A GRAPHIC NOVEL WINNER OF: PREMIO NACIONAL DE ENSAYO - PREMIO DE LA ASOCIACI�N DE LAS LIBRER�AS DE MADRID - PREMIO EL OJO CR�TICO DE NARRATIVA - PREMIO LAS LIBRER�AS RECOMIENDAN - PREMIO JOS� ANTONIO LABORDETA - PREMIO B�HO AL MEJOR LIBRO - PREMIO ANTONIO SANCHA DE LOS EDITORES - PREMIO ARAG�N 2021 PREMIO WENJIN 2023 DE LA BIBLIOTECA NACIONAL DE CHINA - PREMIO HENR�QUEZ URE�A 2022 DE LA ACADEMIA MEXICANA DE LA LENGUA - FINALIST, PRIX DU LIVRE EUROP�EN 2020 Irene Vallejo's loving tribute to the history of written texts has captivated millions of readers around the world. Now, this book about books takes on a new dimension in graphic novel format, illustrated by Tyto Alba. His exceptional drawings bring to life the battles of Alexander the Great, Cleopatra's palaces, the first bookstores, and the workshops where scribes toiled to produce copies of manuscripts. In more recent times, they show the bonfires where banned books were burned, the bombed-out library of Sarajevo, and Oxford University's twenty-first century underground library. Alba's drawings and watercolors trace the legacy of a technology created five thousand years ago, when the Ancient Egyptians discovered the world-changing potential of a humble reed they called papyrus. In Papyrus: The Invention of Books in the Ancient World , we become participants in a collective adventure alongside those who have created and protected the written word since then. "A gorgeous homage to a love for the classics, books, libraries and reading." - Nuccio Ordine
