Through these stories of life, love and death, the reader will be able to take a trip with the eyes of his imagination through Agra, Bergamo, Madrid, Paris, Buenos Aires, Guayaquil, Weslaco, Hamburg, Miami, New York, Ciudad de Mexico, Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai and Wuhan. Stories worth telling, such as To?o's incredible round trip to a place where only a few can go, but few return. He was in a coma for four months and resisted a transplant of both lungs. Or the life of The Magician with 12 children of whom five die and his wife, trapped in the midst of misery. A magical and moving story. The gang of assailants who planned and carried out a robbery at the funeral of Diego Armando Maradona, in which the leader had the privilege of embracing the coffin of his idol. The infinite faith of a mother who faces excruciating poverty but with a deep love for her son, who is in prison for a crime he did not commit. Or the tragic fate of Zhao, who works in a crematorium and cremated her family himself, while the dead bodies of Covid were burned on the streets of Shanghai. But there are also stories of sublime love, like that of the German Ethel and the Mexican Luca. They love each other so much that their relationship is always sky high.
