Bilbao Fiction or reality?
Already several have asked me about what is told in the novel. For them the following clarifications:
All of historical facts which speak in the novel are real. Except one. The reader is responsible to find out.
Roger Bacon really existed, and on this page there is a link to his biography. What is said of him in the novel is strictly true (except the authors of the manuscript and the scene of the monastery).
Obviously, the Voynich manuscript there, and you can see it in full link that exists on this page. In contrast, the explanation given of its origin and content has been adapted to the plot of the novel.
The physics experiment that is described in the second part is real and has been reproduced countless times in labs around the world.
The theory in which the explanation is based in the novel is given the magic is fully accepted by the scientific community today.
In the novel, I tried to describe my hometown as I am. Describe the Bilbao that I know and where I live. You can stroll through the streets where the characters walk, sleep in the hotel which houses "the wolf" and test "pintxos " in bars named. Only Karama is invented and "Tala" is renamed.
Although it appears that the novel is dead, there are still copies for sale in the shop editorial.
