Description
Fireflies is a bold and original attempt to narrate the history of the world. Sagasti weaves together an eclectic array of characters and events from across time and geography, revealing unexpected points of contact between them. The fireflies themselves become a metaphor for the resistance of certain luminous moments in history, which remain suspended in the air, lighting up the night sky indefinitely. This novel transforms the accidents of history into a single, lyrical constellation, showcasing Sagasti's unique, poetic and keenly observant style.
