Este libro recopila los mitos y leyendas de origen mapuche más importantes que se conservan hasta hoy. Más de cincuenta fascinantes relatos en torno a acontecimientos extraordinarios, fantásticos y trascendentes relativos a lo cósmico, a la creación y destrucción del mundo y del ser humano, donde intervienen dioses y semidioses. Narraciones que combinan elementos reales y comprobables con otros maravillosos e imaginarios: por qué un lago del sur es salado, de dónde proviene el nombre de una flor, cómo se extinguió un volcán o de qué manera un espÃritu poderoso ayudó a la comunidad.
En estas páginas no solo se habla de lugares o personas especÃficas que los protagonizan, sino de un mundo mágico y a veces remoto, poblado de espÃritus que colaboran con la gente o se enfrentan a ellas. También de seres humanos que consiguen una profunda relación con la naturaleza, al punto que terminan transformados en piedras, rÃos o árboles.
Grandes creadores de los epew (cuentos), los mapuche fueron consolidando allà un vÃvido universo poblado de seres fantásticos; animales monstruosos, rÃos y mares que cobran vida; entes sobrenaturales que conviven con la gente, flores y árboles sanadores; brujos y chamanes, ánimas tutelares, diluvios, terremotos y maremotos que cambian la fisonomÃa del lugar y volcanes indómitos habitados por espÃritus que transforman su entorno.
Estas lecturas ayudan a comprender la cosmovisión de un pueblo que ha sido base de nuestro crecimiento como nación. Muchos de estos relatos tienen influencias de la cultura occidental, pero adquieren un renovado fulgor y fuerte originalidad marcados por el particular entorno geográfico, las costumbres y rituales mapuche y su coherente religiosidad.
