"what I left behind becomes exactly what I'm running toward -- like I'm part of a family."
Tengo que ser honesta, es un libro complicado de leer, no es una lectura que se lea en una sentada (aunque es cortito), es prácticamente poesía en forma de novela, entonces mi recomendación sería que se lea despacito, disfrutando cada palabra de Ocean.
"The wound is also the place where the skin reencounters itself, asking of each end, where have you been?
Where have we been, Ma?"
Cada párrafo, cada capítulo, cada oración, son hermosos, yo no podía dejar de decir 'no puede ser' de lo bello que está escrito y se ve el amor que hay detrás de cada palabra, que pensó la mejor manera de mostrar una parte de la vida de mucha gente.
"Ma. You once told me that memory is a choice. Buy if you were god, you know it's a flood."
En cuanto a las relaciones (tanto con su mamá, abuela, como con Trevor) están súper marcadas las diferencias, como la personalidad de little dog se moldaba según con quién estaba, según lo que la otra persona necesitará de el (muy mirrorball de su parte)
"You once told me that the human eye is god's loneliest creation. How so much of the world passes through the pupil and still it holds nothing"
En resumen es una novela preciosísima, solo hay que tener en cuenta que requiere su tiempo para digerirla bien.
