La ©Øultima cuentista / Donna Barba Higuera ; traducci©Øon por Aurora Humar©Øan.
"Una ni©Þna llamada Petra Pe©Þna que no quer©Øia otra cosa que ser cuentista, como su abuelita. Pero el mundo de Petra est©Øa llegando a su fin. La Tierra ha sido destruida por un cometa, y solo unos pocos cient©Øificos y sus hijos --entre ellos, Petra y su familia-- han sido elegidos para viajar a un nuevo planeta. Son ellos quienes garantizar©Øan la continuidad de la raza humana. Cientos de a©Þnos despu©Øes, Petra despierta en el nuevo planeta y descubre que es la ©Øunica persona que recuerda a la Tierra. Un siniestro Colectivo ha tomado el mando de la nave durante el viaje, empe©Þnado en borrar los pecados pasados de la humanidad. En forma sistem©Øatica, han purgado los recuerdos de quienes se hab©Øian embarcado... o directamente los han purgado. Solo Petra atesora las historias de nuestro pasado y, con ellas, las esperanzas para nuestro futuro. ©Podr©Øa devolverles la vida? Donna Barba Higuera, ganadora del Premio Pura Belpr©Øe, nos ofrece un viaje brillante al mismo coraz©Øon de eso que nos hace humanos." --Publisher's description.
"A girl named Petra Pe©Þna, who wanted nothing more than to be a storyteller, like her abuelita. But Petra's world is ending. Earth has been destroyed by a comet, and only a few hundred scientists and their children -- among them Petra and her family -- have been chosen to journey to a new planet. They are the ones who must carry on the human race. Hundreds of years later, Petra wakes to this new planet -- and the discovery that she is the only person who remembers Earth. A sinister Collective has taken over the ship during its journey, bent on erasing the sins of humanity's past. They have systematically purged the memories of all aboard -- or purged them altogether. Petra alone now carries the stories of our past, and with them, any hope for our future. Can she make them live again?"--Publisher's description.
