Presentation of the book When Monsters Dream, written by the author Isabel David Marqués from León. It is a book of poetic prose aimed at those who wish to go beyond the obvious, in which the author explores what it means to wear a crown, self-imposed exile, and the recovery of a previously unknown humanity.

Through a primitive and atypical style, the work addresses themes such as coerced love and unexpected empowerment, inviting the reader to see beyond the anguish inherent in devotion taken to the extreme.

"I have sought Eden in blood, perhaps in you, and I have remained at the gates of Bethlehem, my humanity ravaged and my face unrecognizable." — Isabel David Marqués

In this work, Isabel David Marqués transforms emotional darkness into the delicate rebirth of a creature who dreams of forgiveness and evokes the despair of a character with romantic resonances, close to the imagery of Mary Shelley.
