Necropolises are places of ritual, where the living and the dead find their nexus of union. But they are also spaces of memory where each individual shapes the coincidence of the whole community. In Spain, "cemetery tourism" -also called black tourism or necrotourism- has become consolidated, since our cemeteries have little to envy to La Recoleta in Buenos Aires, El Père Lachaise in Paris or the Jewish cemetery in Prague. Scientists like Severo Ochoa, pharaohs like Lola Flores, fashion designers represented by Balenciaga, poets like Bécquer, and members of royalty await us. But we will also...
Necropolises are places of ritual, where the living and the dead find their nexus of union. But they are also spaces of memory where each individual shapes the coincidence of the whole community. In Spain, "cemetery tourism" -also called black tourism or necrotourism- has become consolidated, since our cemeteries have little to envy to La Recoleta in Buenos Aires, El Père Lachaise in Paris or the Jewish cemetery in Prague. Scientists like Severo Ochoa, pharaohs like Lola Flores, fashion designers represented by Balenciaga, poets like Bécquer, and members of royalty await us. But we will also learn where and who dwells in English, Italian or German cemeteries, and different confessions such as Muslim or Jewish. We will visit the smallest cemetery in Spain and the largest in Europe. We will visit cathedrals and resurrect forgotten stories such as Teresa, little Violette or Casimiro. Rocío Jurado, Camarón, Romero de Torres, Picasso, Chillida, Maruja Mallo and other great artists await us. But also spies, presidents, pioneers and mummies... an immersion in history through imposing mausoleums and very remarkable dead. Would you like to read it? If you can, do it before your time. When you finish this journey from grave to grave in Spain, you won't be the same person. You will be better... or not. "Cemeteries and libraries have much more in common than silence: they both hide stories waiting to be discovered. And Sanmamed is the best cemetery librarian you'll find to know them". Javier Sierra, Planeta Novel Prize. "A sensational book about the funerary art because it doesn't talk about death but about life before the afterlife". Javier Moro, Planeta Novel Prize. "Marta is capable of finding the most vivid sepulchers and unearthing the infinite curiosities of the ars moriendi". Jesús Callejo, writer and director of the podcast 'La escóbula de la brújula'. "Nothing makes us more immortal than Marta Sanmamed's obituary stories". Ayanta Barilli, finalist of the Planeta Novel Prize.
