José Castroviejo fue el gran recopilador de historias gallegas de fantasmas. En "EL PÁLIDO VISITANTE" recoge relatos de Finisterre y la Bretaña francesa sobre aparecidos, ahogados espectrales y augurios de muerte. Un tesoro que he logrado conseguir en su edición original de 1960 💀
Hoy despedimos con tristeza a Concha López Narváez (Sevilla, 1939- Madrid, 2026), escritora clave de la LIJ en España, y a la que dedicamos el primer número de nuestra revista en marzo de 1989. Nos deja grandes obras y un sinfín de lectores que crecimos con ellas
