BOOK / THE SUN PRINCESS. D. Grossman, M. Rovner

Illustrated Story / Children's

The Sun Princess is the story of a beautiful secret. David Grossman's pen and Michal Rovner's pencils create a poetic work for children and adults about the magic of day and night. Lucía and her mother become, for one day, the princess and queen of the Sun. Thus, they will immerse themselves in an adventure so that, from the darkness of the night, the sun will awaken, gain strength, and flood every corner with light and joy. The end of the day will come, it is inevitable, but tomorrow, surely, there will be a new queen and a new princess of the Sun. Grossman and Rovner once again captivate us with this beautiful and optimistic story, as they did with The Embrace, also published by Sexto Piso in 2013.

"There is an extreme delicacy in this man [David Grossman], as if his gaze were about to break, his face red. As if the child he once was were about to cry alone again. Sometimes the pain surfaces, but modesty mitigates it. He is a man inhabited by conflict, like his literature. Nothing in what he writes, not even in a children's story, is alien to the drama he contemplates." Juan Cruz, El País
