«La imagen de Notre-Dame en llamas me dejó aturdido y profundamente afectado. Me encontraba al borde de las lágrimas. Algo de un valor incalculable estaba muriendo ante nuestros ojos. Era una sensación desconcertante, como si la tierra hubiera comenzado a temblar.»- Ken Follett

En este breve pero fascinante libro, Ken Follett describe las emociones que sintió cuando conoció la tragedia que amenazaba con destruir Notre-Dame de París y recorre, desde los días de su construcción, los momentos históricos determinantes de un edificio que a través de los siglos ha ejercido una fascinación universal.

Follett rinde homenaje así a Notre-Dame y revela además la influencia que ha tenido en las catedrales de todo el mundo y en la escritura de su más famosa novela, Los pilares de la Tierra.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"The wonderful cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris, one of the greatest achievements of European civilization, was on fire. The sight dazed and disturbed us profoundly. I was on the edge of tears. Something priceless was dying in front of our eyes. The feeling was bewildering, as if the earth was shaking." --Ken Follett

In this short, spellbinding book, international bestselling author Ken Follett describes the emotions that gripped him when he learned about the fire that threatened to destroy one of the greatest cathedrals in the world--the Notre-Dame de Paris. Follett then tells the story of the cathedral, from its construction to the role it has played across time and history, and he reveals the influence that the Notre-Dame had upon cathedrals around the world and on the writing of one of Follett''s most famous and beloved novels, The Pillars of the Earth.
