In 'Corazón doble', Marcel Schwob presents a collection of 34 stories that explore the inherent duality of the human being. Through powerful images, Schwob reconstructs the path from terror to piety, showing how internal emotions are reflected in the external world. This edition by Alianza Editorial, translated by Mauro Armiño, invites us to virtually relive the universe in every second of intense life.
