YOL, HIJO DE DOS MUNDOS

Gisbert, Joan Manuel
The disappearance of a newborn baby on a dark night will be the beginning of strange events. Two twin brothers, almost identical beings, are going to live apart in two very different realms, in two separate dimensions. A woman with fascinating violet eyes will raise one of them in Orania, a place like no other, founded by great wizards of the past. The other child will live with his parents in a rural environment submitted to the abusive power of a landlord.

Orania is both a very far away place and very close, but without help it is impossible to reach it. Most people believe that it does not even exist, that it is a legend from long ago. They are wrong. To get to Orania, also called the Place of the Strangers, you need someone from Orania to guide you through invisible circular paths.

Both children ignore the existence of the other until fate will reunite the twins again thanks to a curse and a thrilling adventure. Aldio will have to trust an old wise man who will teach him all about ancient myths and legends, but also, how clever you have to be to fool your enemy.

Biography
Gisbert, Joan Manuel

Joan Manuel Gisbert nació en Barcelona. Tras diversos estudios y trabajos, optó por dedicarse a la literatura. Era lo que lo atraía con más intensidad. En sus más de cuatro décadas como escritor, ha sido traducido a más de veinte lenguas y ha obtenido no pocos de los más significativos premios de su ámbito, como el Nacional de Literatura Infantil y Young adult, el Lazarillo, el C.C.E.I., el Cervantes Chico, el de la Crítica, el EDEBÉ, el Gran Angular, el Barco de Vapor (dos veces), etc., así como diversas distinciones en Francia, Alemania e Hispanoamérica. En sus obras trata de ofrecer historias nunca contadas antes, inspiradas en lo fantástico y/o en hechos de la realidad. Gisbert es un autor convencido de que, a pesar de la gran cantidad de medios existentes, el valor comunicativo y creativo de las palabras y el lenguaje seguirá siendo algo esencial por muchísimo tiempo.
