Qué bonito escribe Jeanette. Me ha encantado. Un libro de historia entrelazadas, de magia, de los que dejan un regusto agradable y una sonrisa en la cara.

Poetic and far reaching. With Darwin and Jekyll & Hyde. And a bit about a library. The ever-story of Pew.

“The light was as intense as a love affair. I was blinded, delighted, not just because it was warm and wonderful, but because nature measures nothing. Nobody needs this much sunlight. Nobody needs droughts, volcanoes, monsoons, tornadoes either, but we get them, because our world is as extravagant as a world can be. We are the ones obsessed by measurement. The world just pours it out.”

Equal parts beautiful and haunting, yet also strangely uplifting.

Jag gillade första halvan, men sen blev det rörigt med alla random berättelser.
