Cómo viajar con un salmón

How to travel with a salmon is a sui generis instruction manual by an exceptional teacher: Umberto Eco. How to survive the bureaucracy, avoid contagious diseases, not use the mobile phone, appear on television even though we are nobody, not to mention football, eating ice cream or avoiding plots are some of the many situations of our day to day in which the author guides us with his characteristic sense of humor. Prepared by himself, this selection of articles, which includes those that were published in Segundo Diario Minimal and other unpublished ones and has become a sales phenomenon in Italy, encourages us to become aware that life happens in small things, the chance encounters and minor problems, and not the dialectical dilemmas or the big questions about existence that occupy a tiny portion of our time.
