Furthermore, she added that "the great stories not only provide happiness, but suggest the world in which he lives as an act of rebellion against it, looking for that life becomes an extraordinary adventure.
'Tan near the air ', as noted, has much to do with their own privacy and obsessions, and includes the themes that have recurred in his books in a "condensed." Topics such as children, the importance of nature, the question of pain, the presence of death and, above all, love as a central theme of the work. "Love as essential experience in life, we seek and which has an ambivalence that is, which leads to more happiness and is capable of causing troubles," he said.
Martín Garzo, who has acknowledged that the books are not written from an idea, but to tell a story and feel passionate about, explained that the work comes from a story he knew as a child in which a pastor, and female laughter after hearing a splash of water behind some bushes, he saw a group of beautiful women coming out of the water to pick up a feather cloaks and become birds. The pastor was holding on with one of them, at which sought ways to retain that "object of devotion."
Then as the author of 'The language of the sources' National Fiction Prize, asks "how was the life of this odd couple, as she participated in two natures, a metaphor for the living nature in each of us, "he said.

In addition, the book challenges the myth of identity, that is, man has not a single life or a single person, so it is important to create opportunities for them to go. " In this regard, he stressed that "we live life by chance, but lives are asleep or not lived as part of ours through dreams and desires."

It adds that "the whole world of dreams, desires and fantasy is part of real life, because this is not just what we touch or see." "We are much more present in what is shut up in what we say, more desires and fantasies, has ruled. Similarly, he pointed out about "the territory's own life literature is not visible, but hidden."
Delving into childhood as a literary argument in his career, Martin Garza has said that the child lives in the literature "unknowingly" magical thinking because its set to "the world of possibility."

"In addition, stressed that love," pure fantasy ", is the world of" Metamorphosis ", it requires continuous transformations." This nonfiction novel is true, because it speaks of the most human internal rather than external, "he confessed.
On the other hand, Martin Garzo commitment to" know the rural world "to which modern man and West has turned its back, seeing it as "the backdrop for decorating your sightseeing tours.

MATUTE, "THE GREAT FABULOUS"
Aware of the weight of the oral tradition in literature, Martin Garza said that the world of "old and eternal stories and myths have also given the man back. On the other hand, has confessed that the book's dedication to Ana Maria Matute, recent Cervantes Prize, reflects the closeness of the literature of the writer to his life. "The great fabulous ", as defined, fantasy has always claimed, stating that" the reality is magic. "In this sense, the writer Valladolid has reiterated that" the reality is full of special moments like love, the birth of a child , a relationship of true friendship or contemplation of a landscape. "
