Reseña del libro "Story of Your Life: Tales of Joy, Despair and Bittersweet Victory (en Inglés)"

A book to sooth your soul to make the magical seem possible, but mostly to make you cry. This is the story of three karaoke singers in a northern Canadian town, Anders the old man who lost his daughter, Terry the middle-aged perpetual adolescent, and Teresa, the young, sort of pretty woman with the tragic past.These are who the people of Fort George come to see on long winter nights to find some magic and joy in their lives. All might have continued as it was, but for the interest of Isadora (Izzy) to her friends. A writer from Toronto, her intervention in the three lives she writes about, changes them forever. Does Teresea find love, fame and fortune, or both? Does Anders realize his dream of becoming a cruise ship singer, and finally put mourning for his daughter behind him? Does Terry finally stop playing with his cat, getting drunk and finally find a girlfriend? These questions and more, because their lives are like your life, full of hopes, dreams, aspirations and tragedy. In telling their story, Izzy is changed as well, for the better? Even she's not sure, but she does know her trip to a bleak northern town has impacts on her life far beyond what she ever imagined. The second half of this book is a collection of similarly themed short stories, allthough wildly different in story, they are related in their magical realism them. A bear in Manhattan, a talking wolf, a flying penguin and a lost kitten all take you on heartbreaking journeys of discovery. In between, there are even shorter missives on the nature of happiness and love. This book could best be described as The Prophet meets Gulliver's Travels meets Huckleberry Finn. It is salve for a shattered soul, it is rainy day escape to a worlds like ours but magically different. This is your late night, not quite guilty pleasure. It is what you have been looking for.
