Javar is a very entertaining and easy to listen audiobook. It has spine-chilling vestiges that shake the sensitive fibers of the always finite human being who searches in others his reason to be, his unreason or its nothing, catching your imagination, and taking you to other places. People only believe in what they see, with a rational attitude, which is why they have always denied the possibility of other kinds of lives. I was one of those people.

Javar es un audiolibro muy entretenido y fácil de escuchar; tiene vestigios de corte estremecedor, que sacuden las fibras sensibles del ser humano siempre finito, que busca en otros su razón de ser, su sinrazón o su nada, atrapando tu imaginación y transportándola a otros lugares.

Publicados en 1697 en Francia con el título de Les Contes de ma mère l'Oye, los ocho relatos incluidos en este libro han sido objeto de incontables versiones y adaptaciones, además de haber sufrido numerosas oleadas de censura en función de la cambiante pacatería del momento. El resultado, recortado y desvirtuado, es un somnífero para niños pequeños, que ha empalagado a generaciones de lectores adultos y traicionado, en la letra y en el espíritu, a la pluma del maravilloso Charles Perrault (Francia 1628-1703), maestro del misterio y el humor negro.
