Overview
«El mundo amarillo es un mundo fantástico que quiero compartir contigo. Es el mundo de los descubrimientos que hice durante los diez años que estuve enfermo de cáncer. Es curioso, pero la fuerza, la vitalidad y los hallazgos que haces cuando estás enfermo sirven también cuando estás bien, en el día a día.
»Este libro pretende que conozcas y entres en este mundo especial y diferente; pero, sobre todo, que descubras a los "amarillos". Ellos son el nuevo escalafón de la amistad, esas personas que no son ni amantes ni amigos, esa gente que se cruza en tu vida y que con una sola conversación puede llegar a cambiártela. No te adelanto más: tendrás que leer este libro para poder empezar a encontrar tus "amarillos". Quizás uno de ellos sea yo...
»El mundo amarillo habla de lo sencillo que es creer en los sueños para que estos se creen. Y es que el creer y el crear están tan sólo a una letra de distancia.
»¿Qué esperas a saber quiénes son tus "amarillos"?».-Albert Espinosa
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A sensational memoir with all the emotional power of The Fault in Our Stars, The Yellow World is the story of cancer and survival that has moved and inspired readers around the world.
My heroes don’t wear red capes. They wear red bands.
Albert Espinosa never wanted to write a book about cancer—so he didn’t. Instead, he shares his most touching, funny, tragic, and happy memories in the hopes that others, healthy and sick alike, can draw the same strength and vitality from them.
At thirteen, Espinosa was diagnosed with cancer, and he spent the next ten years in and out of hospitals, undergoing one daunting procedure after another, starting with the amputation of his left leg. After going on to lose a lung and half of his liver, he was finally declared cancer-free. Only then did he realize that the one thing sadder than dying is not knowing how to live. In this rich and rewarding book, Espinosa takes us into what he calls “the yellow world,” a place where fear loses its meaning; where strangers become, for a moment, your greatest allies; and where the lessons you learn will nourish you for the rest of your life.
