Description
In 2007, Jordi Sierra i Fabra won the National Prize for Children's Literature with this unique and captivating story.
A year before his death, Franz Kafka had an extraordinary experience while walking in the park Steglitz in Berlin. He met a young girl crying uncontrollably because she had lost her doll. To comfort her, he invented a peculiar tale: the doll wasn't lost, but was on a journey, and he, transformed into a postal worker for dolls, had a letter that would lead it to the park the next day.
Over three weeks, Kafka wrote letters to the girl, describing the adventures of the extraordinary doll from all corners of the world. This is the story of that experience, in which Franz Kafka was a masterful storyteller for a young girl he never met again, and whose letters remain one of the most beautiful mysteries of 20th-century narrative.
