A large crack along the Pyrenees separates the Iberian Peninsula from the rest of Europe causing Spain and Portugal to become a great floating island. The characters on this great ship made of rock travel endlessly towards a new utopia.

Description in Spanish:

Nosotros también somos ibéricos. De la noche a la mañana Europa apareció cubierta con esta pintada.

"La balsa de piedra" parte de un audaz planteamiento narrativo. Una grieta abierta espontáneamente a lo largo de los Pirineos provoca la separación del continente europeo de toda la península Ibérica, transformándola en una gran isla flotante, moviéndose sin remos ni velas ni hélices en dirección al sur del mundo, camino de una utopía nueva: el encuentro cultural de los pueblos del otro lado del Atlántico, desafiando así el dominio sofocante que Estados Unidos de la América del Norte vienen ejerciendo en aquellos parajes.

Una visión dos veces utópica entendería esta ficción política como una metáfora mucho más generosa y humana: que Europa, toda ella, deberá trasladarse hacia el sur de manera que, en compensación por sus abusos coloniales, antiguos y modernos, ayude a equilibrar el mundo. Es decir, Europa finalmente como ética.

Los personajes de "La balsa de piedra" -dos mujeres, tres hombres y un perro- viajan incansablemente a través de la Península mientras ella va surcando el océano. El mundo está cambiando y ellos sabe que deben buscar en sí mismos las personas nuevas en que se convertirán. Eso les basta.
