Auténtica prosa poética, el texto está vivo, despertando sentimientos, provocando las más bellas emociones. Juan Ramón y Platero, el burrito, son digno ejemplo de la relación, la fusión, del poeta y la naturaleza.
Una obra para grandes, que visitamos cuando pequeños.

Surprisingly beautiful, pastoral and poignant poetic prose. Delicate and moving.

Prosadigte om mig og mit æsel... Det er da fint, men jeg har nu læst nobelpristagere, der gjorde større indtryk.

I love this book to bits. It is heavily lyrical. It evoques childhood and a place that doesn't exist anymore, a quite village in the countryside. If you read it, images, scents, feelings of that lost childhood and that lost countryside place will come to your mind.
In order to enjoy it, I guess you have to be in the mood for poetry. But it is precious and I totally recommend it. A wonderful work of art. Not sure about the ideal age for reading. I read it in high school and loved it, and later as an adult I have re-read a couple of times. Although I would say that when I was a child it made me feel like daydreaming and as an adult it makes me feel more melancholic and longing for those places that can't be reached.

El libro está compuestos de más de 100 escenas cortas que varían en su temática (la muerte, escenas locales, la belleza de la naturaleza, etc.), aunque la mayoría se centran en la relación del autor con su burro. Dicho así no parece muy emocionante, es más, la idea de pequeñas escenas descriptivas sobre la relación de un hombre con su burro no es nada motivadora, pero Juan Ramón Jiménez tiene una prosa poética que simplemente quita el aliento. Las descripciones son hermosas y conmovedoras por igual. Realmente se puede llegar a sentir en la propia piel la relación del poeta con Platero. Hace precisamente lo que un buen poema debe hacer: sugerir, emocionar y transmitir. Sin duda una obra que merece la pena leer y que recomiendo a todo el mundo que haya pensado en coger este clásico alguna vez (y a los que no se lo han planteado también).
