En este breve libro, Alberto Manguel selecciona una docena de personajes literarios, desde Caperucita Roja hasta el Conde Drácula, pasando por Job y Long John Silver. A través de ellos, Manguel reflexiona con originalidad, humor y lucidez sobre la condición humana, nuestro mundo moderno y la admirable persistencia de estos seres inmortales y queridos. El autor nos invita a considerar cómo estos personajes imaginarios, a diferencia de sus lectores, permanecen siempre jóvenes y son, a la vez, quienes fueron cuando los leímos por primera vez y el fruto de nuestras nuevas lecturas.
