Los jóvenes de Latinoamérica viven entornos diversos y contradictorios, muchas veces sentados en un proyecto adultocéntrico, heteropatriarcal y racializado, donde se vive violencia de género, violencia institucional, narcotráfico, pobreza y exclusión. En este contexto de precariedad social, esta obra coloca su centro de atención en el relato biográfico de jóvenes en lugares como Ciudad Juárez, México; Córdoba, Argentina, y Santiago, Chile, donde se muestra cómo se articula la experiencia juvenil con estos escenarios sociales. En ese sentido, surgen las preguntas: ¿Desde dónde hablan los jóvenes?, ¿qué particularidades adquiere el lugar desde el cual entretejen sus múltiples experiencias de vida?, que son desmenuzadas en los trabajos aquí presentados.

Caught up in an oil spill, a dying seagull scrambles ashore to lay her final egg and lands on a balcony, where she meets Zorba, a big black cat from the port of Hamburg. The cat promises the seagull to look after the egg, not to eat the chick once it's hatched and - most difficult of all - to teach the baby gull to fly. Will Zorba and his feline friends honour the promise and give Lucky, the adopted little seagull, the strength to discover her true nature? A moving, uplifting and life-enhancing story with a strong environmental theme, Luis Sepúlveda's instant children's classic has been a worldwide best-seller and is presented here with new drawings by acclaimed illustrator Satoshi Kitamura.
