Synopsis "Allí Donde Se Construyen Los Sueños / Where Dreams Are Built (in Spanish)"

La pluma experta y magistral de Éric Marchal rinde tributo a la explosión científica, cultural y artística de finales del s. XIX con una ambiciosa saga familiar marcada por el amor, el idealismo y la amistad.Andalucía, junio de 1863. Clément Delhorme, un apasionado astrónomo, y su esposa Alicia viven en Granada, donde ella trabaja en la restauración de la Alhambra junto al arquitecto Rafael Contreras.Clément está obsesionado con hacer volar un enorme globo que permita surcar los cielos cuando llega a la ciudad un joven ingeniero, Gustave Eiffel. Pronto, los dos genios se dan cuenta que no solo les une su pasión por el progreso sino también un temperamento fuerte y una ambición sin límite.Pese a su reciente paternidad de trillizos, Delhorme no cesará en sus investigaciones aeronáuticas al tiempo que asesora al joven Eiffel, que pretende construir un puente en Portugal que franquee el Duero. Arropado por esta familia de artistas y científicos brillantes, y en el recogimiento de los mágicos jardines y las maravillosas fuentes de la Alhambra, se forjará el destino de Eiffel, quien, años más tarde, levantará la famosa torre parisina y la Estatua de la Libertad.La vanguardia une Granada y París mediante las ambiciones de los genios Delhorme y Eiffel, dos hombres dedicados a la ciencia que rinden homenaje a todas aquellas mentes que impulsaron la modernidad y el progreso a finales del s. XIX.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONÉric Marchal's masterful pen pays tribute to the scientific, cultural, and artistic explosion of the late 19th century with an ambitious family saga marked by love, idealism, and friendship.Andalusia, Spain 1863, Clément Delhorme, a passionate astronomer and his wife Alicia live in Granada. Clément is obsessed with getting a huge balloon up in the air, one in which he can fly cross the skies, when a young engineer, Gustave Eiffel, arrives in town. Soon, the two geniuses realize that they have many things in common like their craving for progress, a strong personality, and an overwhelming ambition. Delhorme continues with his aeronautical research while being a mentor to the young Eiffel, who intends to build a bridge in Portugal that crosses the Douro river.Being taken under the wings of a family full of brilliant artists and scientists and living in the midst of the wonderful Alhambra gardens and fountains, definitely shaped Eiffel's destiny, to later build the famous Parisian tower and the Statue of Liberty. The avant-garde unites Granada and Paris through the ambitions of these two geniuses, Delhorme and Eiffel; two men devoted to science who pay homage to those great minds that promoted modernity and progress at the end of the 19th century.
