Immerse yourself in the magical world of 'Contes extraordinaris', a selection of stories by the renowned author Pere Calders. In this collection, the boundary between reality and fantasy blurs, inviting readers to question their perception of the world. The characters find themselves in improbable situations that challenge their understanding of reality, such as hands forgotten in gardens or trees that are born in dining rooms. This edition, number 15 of the 'Lectures Punt volat' series, is an invitation to explore the extraordinary in the everyday.
