Overview
Una fábula moderna sobre el amor por los libros y la vida. Una historia amable, llena de luz y optimismo, acompañada por las tiernas ilustraciones de Nuria Díaz.
Juliette toma el metro todos los días a la misma hora. Y lo que más disfruta del trayecto es observar a aquellos que leen a su alrededor. La vieja dama, el bibliófilo de rarezas, el estudiante de matemáticas, la joven muchacha que llora en la página 247. Juliette los mira con curiosidad y ternura, como si sus lecturas, sus pasiones, la diversidad de sus vidas, pudiesen dar color a la suya, monótona y previsible.
Sin embargo, un día decide bajar dos estaciones antes de lo habitual, tomar un nuevo camino para ir a trabajar, sin saber que su vida estará a un solo paso de cambiar para siempre.
Si te gusta leer en la bañera o por encima de la espalda de tu vecino; dejar el libro en un vagón del metro u ofrecerlo a tu mejor amigo; compartir tus lecturas en familia o con tu pareja; si coleccionas puntos de libro, ejemplares únicos o no te pierdes nunca las últimas novedades... este libro es para ti.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A modern fable about the love of books and of life. A thoughtful story, full of light and optimism, accompanied by the tender illustrations of Nuria Díaz.
Juliette takes the subway at the same time every day. And what she likes best about the journey is observing the people reading around her. The old lady, the lover of rare books, the math student, the young woman who cries on page 247. Juliette looks at them with curiosity and tenderness, as if their reading, their passions, and the diversity of their lives might give some color to her own, monotonous and predictable. However, one day she decides to get off the train two stations before her stop and take a new route to work, without knowing that her life is one step away from changing forever.
If you like to read in the bathtub or over your neighbor’s shoulder, leave your book on the subway car or offer it to your best friend, share books with your family or your partner; if you collect bookmarks, first editions, or never miss the latest bestseller… this book is for you.
