The Mothers

Hace un par de días terminé esta novelita muy recomendable. No es el género de lo que  usualmente leo, pero los que me conocen bien saben que tengo un interés personal por el tema.

Antes de que me la hagan de jamón de  por que la reseña en Ingles, bueno pues es por que la novela aun no la publican en español y por que no quiero que se me olvide el Ingles que cada vez practico menos.

La buena noticia es que al parecer ya se esta preparando la película, lo que obligará a su traducción de un momento a otro.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Mothers is a detailed and honest description of the hard struggle infertile couples face when presented against everyday regular situations. The normality of a day in the park where a mother pushes a dual stroller with twins or kids riding the swing pushed my their father may not seem to discomfort anyone, but there's a special kind of people that long and hurt with such a scenario. Jennifer Gilmore presents the story of Jesse and Ramón a regular New York couple that have to deal every day with society remaining them of how miserable their lives are.

It's supposed to be fiction, but the sorrow, desperation and anguish feel so real as you go though the pages.

En vacaciones comencé a leer Influx de Daniel Suarez; llevo solo un 25%, pero la verdad que este cuate ha evolucionado bastante desde Daemon y Freedom. Espero pronto también poder compartirles esta reseña proximamente.
