Synopsis "Cuentos de Miedo: Beyond the Grave: Tradición Oral Colombiana: Colombian Oral Tradition (in English)"
Spanish and English version. All Colombian towns possess an immense vein of popular wisdom and a large proportion of it has come in contact with us through to oral tradition. This book consists of a collection of stories and in this sense it is like a costumbrist painting whose background is composed by color strokes made by ghosts, apparitions, and fright. The ideas and information in this book come from direct references given by native people of this region. "BEYOND THE GRAVE - ORAL TRADITION" is like a chest full of surprises. This chest is opened by the key of graphic imagination and people witnessing this action will be delighted to go over the labyrinths of memory to bring all the stories told by their grandparents, mothers, and nannies to life. These important persons in our life managed to keep all the attention on them in an age when sophisticated communication media did not exist. Young readers will also find in this material a source of interest, emotion, surprise, and, above all, fear. As the cultural heritage they represent, these stories come directly from the people. As such, they have elicited not only appreciation from listeners but the strong desire to preserve this ancestral jewel. The author has rescued these stories from the storehouse of memory in order to be enjoyed by the new generations.
