Not the End: Life isn't over until it is over  [Και το παραμύθι δεν τελείωσε]  [Y colorín colorado este cuento aún no se ha acabado.: La vida no se acaba... hasta que se acaba.] (published in English, Greek, Spanish)

“Not the End” is a remarkable story that speaks of life, of secret fears that paralyze us, and of the desire to be free.  It speaks about the importance of knowing oneself, of digging into the past, of understanding who we are and where we come from in order to know where we are headed. It is a tale that charms readers of all ages with its simplicity, one that allegorically speaks to our hearts about endings and the eternal beginnings of life, about all the possibilities, about all beginnings and all endings.  But most importantly, it encourages us to live life… until the end!

[...] With great wit and literary talent, Odin Dupeyron negates stereotypical heroes and their achievements, instead placing them in an imaginary world where the author-narrator converses with his character-heroes.  He, thus, grants them autonomy to shape their own story and, ultimately, creates a tale that is far more interesting.  While reading it, the reader sometimes smiles, at other times he is moved, and often times sees himself in the characters.  He is both ‘troubled’ and entertained by this special book which follows in the footsteps of the “Little Prince” and has come to be loved for its deep truths.

"Not the End" was first published in Mexico in 2001 and in less than two years became a bestseller, passed along from hand to hand and from mouth to mouth. It has been read and reread, given, lent and recommended by readers of all ages, of both genders, readers of different religions, preferences and countries, because it has deeply touched the hearts and lives of thousands of people.
