Overview

En un conmovedor ejemplo del amor incondicional en tiempos difĆ­ciles, Gregory Boyle, el sacerdote jesuita y autor del superventas de New York Times Tatuajes en el corazĆ³n: El poder de la compasiĆ³n sin lĆ­mites, relata lo aprendido en su trabajo con miembros de pandillas en Los Ɓngeles acerca de la fe, la compasiĆ³n y el poder perdurable de la hermandad.

En su primer libro, Tatuajes en el corazĆ³n: El poder de la compasiĆ³n sin lĆ­mites, Gregory Boyle nos presenta las industrias Homeboy, el mayor programa de rehabilitaciĆ³n de pandilleros en el mundo entero. Los crĆ­ticos reconocen a este libro como un ā€œasombroso hito literario y espiritualā€ (Publishers Weekly) que ā€œestĆ” destinado a convertirse en un clĆ”sico del periodismo urbano y la espiritualidad contemporĆ”neaā€ (Los Angeles Times). Ahora, luego de la exitosa expansiĆ³n de las industrias Homeboy, Boyle regresa con Amor incondicional: El poder de la hermandad para revelar cĆ³mo la compasiĆ³n estĆ” transformando las vidas de los pandilleros.

En un paĆ­s profundamente dividido y plagado de pobreza y violencia, Amor incondicional: El poder de la hermandad nos ofrece una imagen de los desafĆ­os y alegrĆ­as que componen la vida en los sectores marginales. Sergio, arrestado a los nueve aƱos, ingresĆ³ a una pandilla a los doce y al poco tiempo cumpliĆ³ una condena, ahora trabaja con el equipo de adicciones a sustancias en Homeboy para ayudar a otros a vivir sobrios. Jamal, abandonado por su familia cuando trataba de asistir a la escuela a los siete aƱos, poco a poco encuentra la forma de perdonar a su madre esquizofrĆ©nica. Cuco, un joven padre que nunca conociĆ³ a su propio padre muerto, piensa la aventura diaria de criar a su hijo de cuatro aƱos. Esos pandilleros nos conmueven el alma y revelan lo luminosa que puede llegar a ser la vida cuando estĆ” repleta de amor incondicional y de bondad.

Este libro ciertamente darĆ” forma a nuestras ideas acerca de Dios y de la gente, y nos harĆ” vislumbrar un mundo definido por mĆ”s compasiĆ³n y menos barreras. De una forma cuidadosa pero divertida, Amor incondicional: El poder de la hermandad nos invita a encontrar la hermandad del uno con el otro y nos vuelve a convencer de que todos poseemos una bondad intrĆ­nseca.Ā 

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In a moving example of unconditional love in difĀ­ficult times, Gregory Boyle, the Jesuit priest andĀ New York TimesĀ bestselling author ofĀ Tattoos on the Heart, shares what working with gang members in Los Angeles has taught him about faith, compassion, and the enduring power of kinship.


In his first book,Ā Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion, Gregory Boyle introduced us to Homeboy Industries, the largest gang-intervention program in the world.Ā Critics hailed that book as an ā€œastounding literary and spiritual featā€ (Publishers Weekly) that is ā€œdestined to become a classic of both urban reportage and contemporary spiritualityā€ (Los Angeles Times). Now, after the sucĀ­cessful expansion of Homeboy Industries, Boyle returns withĀ Barking to the ChoirĀ to reveal how comĀ­passion is transforming the lives of gang members.

In a nation deeply divided and plagued by poverty and violence,Ā Barking to the ChoirĀ offers a snapshot into the challenges and joys of life on the margins. Sergio, arrested at age nine, in a gang by age twelve, and serving time shortly thereafter, now works with the substance-abuse team at Homeboy to help others find sobriety. Jamal, abandoned by his family when he tried to attend school at age seven, gradually finds forgiveĀ­ness for his schizophrenic mother. New father Cuco, who never knew his own dad, thinks of a daily adventure on which to take his four-year-old son. These former gang members uplift the soul and reveal how bright life can be when filled with unconditional love and kindness.

This book is guaranteed to shake up our ideas about God and about people with a glimpse at a world defined by more compassion and fewer barriers. Gently and humorously,Ā Barking to the ChoirĀ invites us to find kinship with one another and re-convinces us all of our own goodness.
