In this short story collection, Alexis Nolla tells us of great travelers that really existed - or are totally invented, a bit like Bolaño's style. We follow the legendary Antarctic explorer Robert Falcon Scott; fathers and sons on a quest to find the Devil's Island; and monsters with PTSD syndrome. Different genres combine in Nolla's unique portrayal of dauntless explorers, solitary hunters, melancholic monsters, frozen noses and brave travelers creating a mesmerizing hymn to the beauty of discovery and the ancestral power of wilderness.
