Todos tenemos miedos, inexplicables, desoladores y terribles; aunque no podamos confesarlo, nos acosan siempre, desde la más lejana niñez. Miedos nacidos de sueños, ideas, algo escuchado, no visto, apenas imaginado. Del terror irracional que algunas veces sentimos habla "Miedos de invierno". Lectura recomendada a partir de 14 años.
