En 'Stevenson sob las palmeras', Alberto Manguel elabora una ficción sobre los últimos días de Robert Louis Stevenson en Samoa. La novela explora las tensiones entre la privacidad y la desinhibición, el pecado y la simplicidad, y la línea difusa entre la realidad y la ficción. A través de la mirada de Manguel, Stevenson se convierte en un personaje fascinante, atrapado entre su vida europea y la cultura nativa de la isla.
