Una tarde de invierno, un lobo hambriento que deambula por un barrio desconocido descubre un curioso espectáculo en el teatro: “El Lago de los Chanchos”, interpretado por el Ballet del Covent Guarren. Aunque al principio le parece el lugar perfecto para saciar su apetito, acabará fascinado por la magia de una buena historia y descubrirá sus dotes artísticas. Firmada por dos grandes figuras de la literatura infantil, James Marshall y Maurice Sendak, esta comedia transgresora está llena de dobles sentidos, juegos visuales e imágenes hilarantes que evocan los grandes clásicos y recuerdan que el arte puede cautivar incluso a los espíritus más salvajes.

English Translation

Swine Lake

On a cold winter night, a hungry wolf wanders into an unfamiliar neighborhood and stumbles upon a theater showing 'Swine Lake,' performed by the Boarshoi Ballet. At first he sees only an easy meal among the plump pig dancers, but he soon finds himself captivated by the magic of storytelling and discovers an unexpected artistic side of himself. Created by two giants of children's literature, James Marshall and Maurice Sendak, this mischievous picture book is packed with visual jokes, clever wordplay, and hilarious illustrations that pay homage to classic ballet while reminding readers that art can enchant even the wildest hearts.
