    En esta novela gráfica, el señor Levin, un relojero, llega a Bogotá a principios de los años treinta y se instala en un edificio del barrio La Favorita, cerca de la Estación de La Sabana. Durante años repara relojes mientras ve pasar el tiempo en su propia vida, en la de su vecina, la señora Blanca, y en el deterioro inexorable del barrio. Un día, Iván, el niño del segundo piso, encuentra un hogar para una familia de ratoncitos, uniendo así los destinos de todos ellos en una historia sobre el tiempo, la memoria y la comunidad.

    The Building

    In this graphic novel, Mr. Levin, a watchmaker, arrives in 1930s Bogotá and settles into an apartment building in the La Favorita neighborhood near the train station. Over the years he repairs clocks while watching time pass in his own life, in the life of his neighbor Mrs. Blanca, and in the slow decline of their neighborhood. When Iván, the boy from the second floor, finds a family of mice a new home, their fates intertwine in unexpected ways, weaving a quiet story about time, memory, and community.
