About the Book

«Los libros de Irene Vallejo, claros e inteligentes, se leen muy bien e invitan a pensar. En la mejor línea humanista.» -CARLOS GARCÍA GUAL

La aparente contradicción que da título a este libro es la premisa central de los breves ensayos que contiene: la certeza de que en cada paso que damos está la huella de un mundo que parece haberse quedado atrás en el tiempo, pero que vive y respira en cada uno de nuestros gestos e ideas.

En estos ensayos, Irene Vallejo entabla un diálogo con diversas personalidades de la historia y con la cultura que nos han legado; son al mismo tiempo un derroche de erudición sin pretensiones y un homenaje al sutil arte de contar historias.

De la filosofía a la geografía, de la literatura a los deportes, de la historia a la vida cotidiana, estos ejercicios narrativos son pistas que nos ayudan a comprender mejor el mundo que habitamos y nos reconcilian con la memoria de aquellos que, antes que nosotros, se hicieron las mismas preguntas que hoy nos mueven.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

«Books by Irene Vallejo are clear and smart; they read well and invite you to think. Her work is on the best humanistic line. » -CARLOS GARCIA GUAL

The apparent contradiction that gives title to this book is also its central premise: The certainty that, on every step we take, we find the marks of a world that was left behind in time, but that impacts each of our gestures and ideas.

In these brief essays, Irene Vallejo engages in a dialogue with various historical personalities and with the culture they have left us; these dialogues are at once an unpretentious display of erudition and a tribute to the subtle art of storytelling.

From Philosophy to Geography, from Literature to sports, from History to everyday life, these narrative exercises are clues that help us to better understand our world and to reconcile us with the memory of those who --before us-- made the same questions that move us today.
