| Hace algunas semanas, en un vuelo larguísimo, empecé a escuchar el audiolibro de La chica que vive al final del camino. Escuché unos quince minutos y me atrapó por completo. Sentía que tenía que tener el libro físico, entonces detuve mi escucha y ped ...more | |

Creo que la autora tiene ambiciones que no logra cumplir. Por momentos me pareció que no profundizaba en nada, pero de vez en cuando me sentía conmovido. |

Leí este libro porque me interesa la figura de Anthony Bourdain. Pienso mucho en dos clips que vi sobre él, en uno camina por las calles de Tokio, y en otro, una señora mexicana llora al extrañarlo. Aunque este libro me hace quererlo más, también sie ...more |

“No somos conscientes de lo delicada que es nuestra salud mental y seguimos riéndonos de los demás, criticando sus personalidades o sus características físicas, sin saber de qué forma eso los golpeará, sin tomar en cuenta lo que puede pasar por la cabeza de esas personas. Tenemos que aprender a sacar todas las palabras de amor que tengamos, debemos saber cómo manejar lo negativo para no afectar a otros.”

“- Te quiero... y te querré por siempre.
- Hasta que la última estrella estalle.
Ella siguió mirando las estrellas con ojos soñadores, podía verla flotar en el espacio con los brazos abiertos, dando vueltas lentamente. Yo vigilaba las estrellas, tratando de asegurarme que ninguna de ellas se apagara.”

“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.”

“I'm in love with you," he said quietly.
"Augustus," I said.
"I am," he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his eyes crinkling. "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”

“Augustus Waters was a self-aggrandizing bastard. But we forgive him. We forgive him not because he had a heart as figuratively good as his literal one sucked, or because he knew more about how to hold a cigarette than any nonsmoker in history, or because he got eighteen years when he should've gotten more.'
'Seventeen,' Gus corrected.
'I'm assuming you've got some time, you interupting bastard.
'I'm telling you,' Isaac continued, 'Augustus Waters talked so much that he'd interupt you at his own funeral. And he was pretentious: Sweet Jesus Christ, that kid never took a piss without pondering the abundant metaphorical resonances of human waste production. And he was vain: I do not believe I have ever met a more physically attractive person who was more acutely aware of his own physical attractiveness.
'But I will say this: When the scientists of the future show up at my house with robot eyes and they tell me to try them on, I will tell the scientists to screw off, because I do not want to see a world without him.'
I was kind of crying by then.”
