By Veronique Poulain. 2017
Fresca, intimista e infinitamente cómica, Todas las palabras que no me han dicho es la nueva novela revelación en Francia,…
donde ha vendido más de 50.000 ejemplares. Ser adolescente no es nada fácil, y menos aún si, como Véronique, se vive con un padre y una madre un tanto especiales, que no puede comunicarse como el resto del mundo. Fuera de las paredes de su casa, la gente cuenta historias, se enfada, ríe y ama. Los padres de Véronique también hacen todo esto, pero con las manos: son sordomudos. Las pequeñas anécdotas e historias familiares son tan irreverentes como reflexivas, tan sencillas como profundas, tan singulares como cercanas a nuestras experiencias. De lo que podría haber sido un drama, Véronique Poulain hace una comedia: un libro único sobre una familia que también lo es. La crítica ha dicho...«Una pequeña joya.»Femme Actuelle «Divertido, cruel y conmovedor.»OuestFrance «Una magnífica declaración de amor filial.»LibérationTierras de la Hermandad
By Antonio Carlos Mongiardim Gomes Saraiva. 2018
Este libro es un relato (narrativa) y busca ser una reflexión, sobre realidades y situaciones que el autor observó en…
un cortísimo periodo de tiempo en el que vivió en una comunidad (luz) en Minas Gerais/Brasil, de valores y prácticas sociales muy diferentes del escenario común. Por tratarse de un enfoque personal, subjetivo y limitado, su contenido es aquello que el observador consiguió registrar, con extractos en los que participa y es parte integrante de rituales, ceremonias y liturgias con un determinado propósito. Por eso, el libro está lejos de trazar caminos, mostrar resoluciones, dar respuestas y mucho menos tiene la pretensión de hallarse encima del bien o del mal. Tierras de la hermandad es también sentimiento, aprensión y angustia, provocación, en un ambiente en el que el autor es constantemente puesto a prueba y conoce otras formas de conocimiento y elevación. Independientemente de las ideas y opiniones de cada uno, en el libro es posible percibir cuanta seriedad y enfoque existe en esas prácticas, al ser realizadas de una forma atenta y teniendo siempre en cuenta la preservación y la valorización de las especies. En Tierras de la Hermandad, el autor pasa por un periodo muy difícil en el que siente la necesidad de encontrar (construir) un eje de vida para poder encontrarse, ya que atraviesa graves problemas familiares que lo limitan y al mismo tiempo lo alientan. Eso hace que su relato oscile entre situaciones de gran tensión, melancolía y frustración, y otros de júbilo, alegría y contemplación ante la vida, a medida que la acción va transcurriendo y caminando hacia su cumbre. Más que una aventura inusitada, de carácter espiritual y religioso, Tierras de la Hermandad es también un granero de personas y comportamientos que interactúan en un ambiente riguroso, difícil, pero religiosamente prometedor.
