Non ha mai toccato una statua?
.
Io sono innamorata della scrittura di Madeline Miller.
È una di quelle penne che riesce a rapirti dalla prima frase, che ti prende per mano e ti accompagna in un viaggio verso i sentimenti dei suoi personaggi, te li fa comprendere e amare. Ti fa sorridere, ti fa soffrire e ti fa commuovere. Solo solo dispiaciuta di non averla conosciuta prima.
Perché un'autrice che riesce a farmi piangere anche in poco più di settanta pagine è innegabile che riesca a tendere le corde della mia anima e a vibrarle come poche persone riescono a fare.
I disegni dell'artista Ambra Garlaschelli sono così vividi e intimi da trasformare questa lettura in un'esperienza, ti si avvolgono introno come il glicine. E ti resta tutto dentro.
Perché il destino di Galatea è paradossalmente quello di tante, troppe di noi, di tutte noi. Galatea è mia sorella, Galatea sono io.

Uma leitura rápida e fluída, li pois estava procurando um conto curtinho. Uma releitura muito boa da história de Galiteia. Nunca tinha lido nada da autora, mas gostei bastante.
