Entre realidad y deseo, el relato poético de un alto vuelo, su revelación. Albatros es el relato poético de un viaje y de un encuentro. A través de una ambigüedad de voces que se entrecruzan, a veces rozando el terreno de la leyenda y del pasado mítico, a veces más cercanas a la actualidad y a la voz de la propia autora, asistimos a la vieja pugna entre realidad y deseo. Existe una tensión latente entre el mundo claustrofóbico de la casa -del cuarto- y los mundos posibles, que por medio de la imaginación se presentan como un mosaico de paisajes de una naturaleza desbordante.

Antonio Machado nació el 26 de julio de 1875 y murió el 22 de febrero de 1939. Dentro de estos simples datos temporales se desarrolla la experiencia humana e intelectual de uno de los poetas españoles más significativos de nuestra época.

Pero su matrimonio se verá puesto a prueba, primero por sus parientes y después por una inesperada desgracia.
