Krátky popis
There is something beautiful and wild in the impossible
architecture of lighthouses. They have been the homes and
workplaces of men and women whose romantic guardianship has saved
countless lives from cruel seas. Yet while that way of life fades
away, as the lights go out and the buildings crumble, we still have
their stories.From a blind lighthouse keeper tending a light in the
Arctic Circle, to an intrepid young girl saving ships from wreck at
the foot of her father's lighthouse, and the plight of the
lighthouse crew cut off from society for forty days, this is a
glorious book full of illuminating stories that will transport the
reader to the world's most isolated and inspiring lighthouses. With
over thirty tales that explore the depths to which we can sink and
the heights to which we can soar as human beings, and accompanied
by beautiful illustrations, nautical charts, maps, architectural
plans and curious facts, A Brief Atlas of the Lighthouses at the
End of the World is as full of wonder as the far flung lighthouses
themselves. Translated from Spanish by Daniel Hahn
