«La sangre de los libros» is Santiago Posteguillo's essay on the enigmas of world literature, published by Booket in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
The book explores the mysteries and violent episodes hidden behind great works and authors of world literature, from Cicero's speeches to Asimov's science fiction. It includes cases such as Pushkin's death in a duel, the alleged evidence of Shakespeare's reincarnation, or Pessoa's difficulties in finding a publisher, as well as the risk that The Divine Comedy might never have been published.
It is the second volume of Santiago Posteguillo's series History of Literature, within the Arts and Letters collection.
Recommended for curious readers who want to approach the history of literature through anecdotes and enigmas, without needing prior knowledge.
Filólogo y novelista valenciano especializado en novela histórica romana, autor de la trilogía de Escipión, Yo, Julia y la serie de Roma soy yo.
