The city where Miguel de Cervantes found his place in life and literature, written by Jesús García Calero and illustrated by Paula Varona

The writer and journalist Jesús García Calero has written a biography of Alcalá de Henares where history and literature weave together in a passionate journey that finds in the marvellous pictorial works of the artist Paula Varona the counterpoint we are looking for in our books. In contrast to the profound literature that unifies the ten chapters of the book, the permanent presence of Cervantes, the artist has painted an Alcalá full of life, passion, colour and modernity.

"This is the story of a river that has been shaping a city and of a city that treats us like a river, Manriqueño. So much has happened here, so much that its complete history is difficult to conceive".
