Rupturas

by Esther Feldman

If you have more than twelve years old, at any given moment you have left somebody or somebody has left you. Such it is: love ends and there is always one who leaves and another who is abandoned. Based on real histories, this book depicts with delicious precision that nuclear moment in the love life of any person: the feared this is it. The instant that may last five seconds or four years, and that may arrive coated with pain or liberation. That slow motion sequence in which, as you walk down the street, after a cold kiss in the cheek, you realize that the person that until minutes ago was a fundamental part of your life has begun to be a stranger. There are the ones who are left and the ones who leave, the ones who are abandoned and those who abandon. And within each group, many different typologies can exist. Not all who leave are bad and not all the abandoned ones are victims. There are those who cry for everything and those who laugh in the face of misfortune. Those who experience the end of a relationship as if it were a tragedy and those who cannot avoid seeing it as a golden opportunity. By Esther Feldman, author of The Successful Perez.

Basado en historias reales, este libro retrata con deliciosa precision ese momento nuclear en la vida (amorosa) de cualquier persona: el hasta aqui. Y dentro de cada grupo, muchas tipologias diferentes. No todos los que dejan son malos y no todos los abandonados son victimas.
