ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From an extraordinary meeting between a storyteller - Intellectual, essayist, and philosopher- (Umberto Eco), and an artist (Eugenio Carmi), these three stories about respect and hope come alive, written and illustrated especially for those who love fables.Now they knew that on Earth as in any other planet, there are different strokes for different folks, the important thing is to get along.

In The Bomb and the General, the atoms living inside a nuclear bomb rebel against the general who wants to start a war with the arsenal he stores in his attic. In The Three Astronauts, an American, a Russian, and a Chinese astronaut compete to see which one of them is the best on their missions to Mars. They don't get along or even like each other, until a six-handed Martian makes them all recapitulate. In The Gnomes of Gnu, an arrogant emperor sends an explorer with the mission of civilizing an innocent and happy little planet.

A beautiful book which is a tribute to Umberto Eco, a unique treasure from his creative universe illustrated by the artist Eugenio Carmi.
