The author, Nicole Magariños Barraganes, weaves a lyrical narrative that reflects on survival, memory, and cultural legacy in a world dominated by ice and artificial intelligence. A text that invites us to question our dependence on a stable climate and the value of what is human when everything else has been lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work starts from a historical and scientific premise: glaciations have been critical periods for the survival of species. In prehistoric times, humans adapted with tools such as hunting and hides. However, modern \"homo sapiens\" depend on agriculture, livestock, and a stable climate, which raises serious questions about their ability to face a similar event in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Glacialis\" imagines that scenario taken to the extreme: a Great Glaciation has almost extinguished humanity. In this new world, robots and androids are the only inhabitants, and they preserve fragments of human art, including literature, as relics of a vanished past. Through a poetic and speculative voice, the book explores how artistic creation becomes a fragile yet enduring testament to what we once were.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHuman survival in the face of extreme climate catastrophes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe fragility of civilization and its dependence on a stable climate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eArt and literature as memory and legacy of humanity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe relationship between humans, technology, and machines in a post-apocalyptic world.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePoetic reflection on extinction and identity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in contemporary poetry with a strong speculative component, as well as science fiction fans looking for a lyrical and philosophical approach to themes such as climate change, extinction, and artificial intelligence.

The author takes advantage of the lyrical structure to endow a theme usually treated through technical or narrative prose with sensitivity. The result is a text that, without renouncing scientific reflection, appeals to emotion and collective memory. It may be of particular interest to readers looking for a different voice within speculative fiction, as well as those who value poetry as a vehicle for exploring fundamental questions about our future as a species.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PUNTO ROJO EDITORIAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53406885740891,"sku":"9788418804632","price":14.09,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978841880463.jpg?v=1781843112","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788418804632","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
