«Les tenebres del cor» is the adventure novel by Albert Sánchez Piñol, published by La Campana in paperback (368 pages, in Catalan).
The work narrates the fascination that African pygmies exerted on explorers and scientists since the 19th century, between science and literary fantasy. It follows real characters such as Paul du Chaillu, Georg A. Schweinfurth or Anne Eisner in search of creatures from the Iliad; all believed they had found them, though what they found was a mirage.
Published on 6 March 2025, it is part of the Divulgació collection from La Campana. Paperback edition with flaps; text in Catalan.
A read for those who enjoy adventure novels, biographical fiction and tales of exploration in Africa.
