«Criaturas del aire» is the essay by Spanish philosopher Fernando Savater, published by Planeta in paperback (182 pages, in Spanish).
The book brings together monologues in which characters from fiction and history —Tarzan, Dulcinea, Phileas Fogg, Sleeping Beauty, Nero or Bakunin— comment on their own trajectory, extend it or deny it. Savater turns each voice into a metaphor made of words and proposes imagination as the foundation of literary freedom.
Work originally published in 1979; this is the 2nd edition, released in Barcelona in 1983 within Planeta's Essay Collection no. 11.
Of interest to readers of philosophy and essays, as well as to those who enjoy the reinterpretation of classic literary characters.
Fernando Fernández-Savater Martín is a Spanish philosopher, essayist and author.
