About the Book

El ingenio de Millás y la sabiduría de Arsuaga unidos para contar la vida como la mejor de las historias.

«-Tú y yo podríamos asociarnos para hablar de la vida; levantaríamos un gran relato sobre la existencia. ¿Lo hacemos? -dijo el escritor.

-Lo hacemos -contestó el paleontólogo.»

Hace años que el interés por entender la vida, sus orígenes y su evolución resuena en la cabeza de Juan José Millás, de manera que se dispuso a conocer, junto a uno de los mayores especialistas de este país en la materia, Juan Luis Arsuaga, por qué somos como somos y qué nos ha llevado hasta donde estamos. La sabiduría del paleontólogo se combina en este libro con el ingenio y la mirada personal y sorprendente que tiene el escritor sobre la realidad. Porque Millás es un neandertal (o eso dice), y Arsuaga, a sus ojos, un sapiens.

Así, a lo largo de muchos meses, los dos visitaron distintos lugares, muchos de ellos escenarios comunes de nuestra vida cotidiana, y otros, emplazamientos únicos donde todavía se pueden ver los vestigios de lo que fuimos, del lugar del que venimos. En esas salidas, que al lector pueden recordarle a las de don Quijote y Sancho, el sapiens trató de enseñar al neandertal cómo pensar como un sapiens y, sobre todo, que la prehistoria no es cosa del pasado: las huellas de la humanidad a través de los milenios se pueden encontrar en cualquier lugar, desde una cueva o un paisaje hasta un parque infantil o una tienda de peluches. Es la vida lo que late en este libro. La mejor de las historias.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"The ingenuity of Millás and the wisdom of Arsuaga united to tell life as the best of stories.

'You and I could get together to talk about life; we would create a great story about existence. Should we? said the writer.

"We should," replied the paleontologist.'

For years, the interest in understanding life, its origins, and its evolution has resonated in Juan José Millás' head, so he set out to discover, along with one of the country's leading specialists in the field, Juan Luis Arsuaga, why we are the way we are and what has led us to the place we are. In this book, the wisdom of the paleontologist is combined with the wit and surprising outlook that the writer has on life. Because Millás is a Neanderthal (or so he says), and Arsuaga, in his eyes, a sapiens.

Thus, over the course of many months, the two visited different places, many of them common backgrounds of our daily lives, and others, unique locations where you can still see the vestiges of what we were, of the place we came from. During these outings, which may remind the reader of those of Don Quixote and Sancho, the sapiens tried to teach the Neanderthal how to think like a sapiens and, above all, that prehistory is not a thing of the past: the traces of humanity through the millennia can be found anywhere from a cave or landscape to a playground or a stuffed animal store. It is life that beats in this book. The best of stories. "
