TALK
HEIGHT WORDS
I invite you to spend some time with me, enjoying and playing with many pages full of words. We will enter the fantastic universe of the great mountains through the books I have written in recent years. We will discover the most important thing the mountains have to offer us: the most authentic, most shocking and most intense feelings. And all this through literature.
By Eduard Sallent, writer and mountaineer.

STORY TIME
AND THE NEIGHBOURS FOUND THE LIGHT: STORIES OF COLD BELOW THE NORTH
There are men who are stars and ravens that bring the light. It's clear, it's cold and there's snow.
In the distance, there are also ice spirits which we have to fight against with the help of animals. In Alaska, animals become men, and people, landscape. Alaska is the far away land. People go there to see how far away its mountains are. And Alaska is strangely welcoming and hospitable, and there have always been people there, and it has been the gateway to a continent.
By Carles Alcoy, philologist, translator and narrator.
