Vivaldo Bonfin" is a government employee who lives a monotonous and boring life in his office at the Tax Authority, so he takes with him some novels to read them surreptitiously, one day, and while he was pretending to be working, he immersed himself in reading and disappeared from this world between the folds of books... This is his true story as told by his son Elias Bonvin, who goes out in search of his father through the mothers of classic literature such as The Island of Dr. Moreau, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Robert Louis Stevenson), Crime and Punishment (Fyodor Dostoevsky), and Fahrenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury)!!
This book is for those who want to be devoured by books... for those who have lived with novels more than they have lived in reality.
For people who escape from reality with novels... for those who drowned in details and dialogue with novel characters and created a parallel world of heroes of stories and Western places that we only lived through on the pages of novels... for those who really felt that they had been devoured one day by a book...
