Una adolescente muy particular vive su primer amor y descubre, tras la agitación del corazón, las dificultades de convertirse en adulta.


«Los personajes de Yoshimoto ejercen una absoluta fascinación sobre mí ... A pesar de sus desgracias, tienen una capacidad infinita para degustar las cosas de la vida que hacen la vida vivible, y una extraña dignidad, imposible de doblegar.» Isabel Coixet, El Dominical


«La prosa de Yoshimoto se apoya en la calidad de su transparencia... Un retrato esencial de la soledad.» Robert Saladrigas, Cultura/S (La Vanguardia)


«Yoshimoto describe como nadie esos estados físicos y emocionales que tanto tienen que ver con el silencio.» The New York Times Book Review


«Sus logros literarios ya son legendarios.» The Boston Globe


«Una narradora magistral.» Chicago Tribune


Yuko tiene una sensibilidad poco común: es capaz de ver cosas que otros no pueden ver, y también de adivinar los deseos y pensamientos de quienes la rodean. Cuando cumple catorce años, esa sensibilidad se agudiza y todo parece adquirir matices misteriosos. En una academia de pintura, Yuko está aprendiendo a asignar un color a cada estado de ánimo y emoción; Kyu, su profesor, mayor que ella, le enseña. Y, cierto día, sólo él verá, al igual que ella, cómo un extraño hombrecito verde emerge del tallo de una planta que hay en el aula. Así comienzan lo que serán unos meses cruciales para la joven adolescente, quien, suspendida entre lo real y lo imaginario, afronta el día a día y descubre poco a poco la agitación del corazón, la ternura de los sentimientos y las dificultades de convertirse en adulta.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A very unique teenager experiences her first love and discovers, through the turmoil of the heart, the challenges of becoming an adult.


"Yoshimoto's characters exert an absolute fascination over me ... Despite their misfortunes, they have an infinite capacity to savor the things in life that make it livable, and a strange dignity, impossible to break." Isabel Coixet, El Dominical


"Yoshimoto's prose relies on the quality of its transparency... An essential portrait of loneliness." Robert Saladrigas, Cultura/S (La Vanguardia)


"Yoshimoto describes like no one else those physical and emotional states so closely tied to silence." The New York Times Book Review


"Her literary achievements are already legendary." The Boston Globe


"A masterful storyteller." Chicago Tribune


Yuko has an uncommon sensitivity: she can see things others cannot, and even sense the desires and thoughts of those around her. When she turns fourteen, that sensitivity intensifies and everything seems to take on mysterious shades. At a painting academy, Yuko is learning to assign a color to each mood and emotion; Kyu, her teacher, older than her, guides her. And one day, only he will see, just as she does, how a strange little green man emerges from the stem of a plant in the classroom. Thus begin what will be crucial months for the young teenager, who, suspended between the real and the imaginary, faces daily life and gradually discovers the turmoil of the heart, the tenderness of feelings, and the challenges of becoming an adult.

I try to give my dog, whom I love so much, the healthies food and treats that i can. She is so very picky and it's difficult to find things she likes. She loves these treats and expectes one every morning. She litterally waites by the pantry door for one. The are healthy Human grate chicken chips. Makes me feel better about giving her a treat. I would Highly recommend.
