“This book presents what my storyteller output has been in the course of twenty years. Why tales from the other side? With this title I have tried to mark the environment of all these stories, regardless of the theme of each of them as a whole: the place that corresponds to the space of fiction, inevitable elucidating shadow of the place of reality for human beings, and in this case even more so “other” for its general fantastic permeation; a place amongst whose inhabitants are the characters of this book, so familiarized with an experience where dream and wakefulness mix, through the written word, which according to what I believe, naturally belongs to the intuitions of literature.”
