You are about to meet heroes that will make you dream, love, fear and live a thousand and one adventures.
Great romances, knightly stories, exotic adventures, disturbing mysteries… The characters that make up this collection of illustrated books have lived unique experiences and, now, are willing to share them with you in a very original way.
The collection GREAT LITERARY CHARACTERS allows you to approach the most popular works of literature from a very special perspective: from their own protagonists.
• PROFILE. First of all, we look at the profile character. Why? Because the profile of a person can tell much more than we imagine.
• MY EXPERIENCE. In first person, the selected character explains the adventure that he lived and his experiences with the other characters of the work .
• ALIKES. It is possible that before or after his appearance, our characters had some twin souls. We follow the trail on a double page.
• THE WORK AND ITS WORLD. We review the social and cultural impact of the work or works led by the chosen character in a double closing page.
