About this listen
Este es el audiolibro más luminoso, impactante y real que alguien puede escribir. Tras una niñez marcada por los abusos sexuales, años de eterno acoso escolar y una hipersensibilidad que en no pocas ocasiones lo llevó al borde del suicidio, Alejandro Palomas hila en estas páginas un relato sereno y electrizante con el que sobrevuela sin filtro los recuerdos de infancia, la relación sin igual con su madre, la sombra de un padre finalmente desaparecido y el poder de la imaginación y de la escritura como la última tabla de salvación. Este es el testimonio más sincero de un hombre que apostó por vivir y que lo consiguió gracias a su pasión por inventar y compartir mundos, siempre desde la ternura y el humor, y que ahora transforma su vida en la mayor de las historias.
La literatura le permitió crear universos imaginarios mejores que la vida que le rodeaba y con los años estas ficciones le han ayudado a encontrar las palabras para mostrar toda la verdad.

Hace unos años me rompí por completo. Tanto como para que tuvieran que atarme a la cama de un hospital psiquiátrico para evitar que pudiera hacerme daño. No tengo ni idea de cuándo empezó a formarse mi locura. A lo mejor nací genéticamente predispuesto. A lo mejor fui macerando una depresión al callarme ciertas cosas por no preocupar a los demás. O a lo mejor simplemente hay cerebros que de la noche a la mañana hacen crec y se acabó.

Story
For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer.

Story
Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

El poder de hablar con la verdad
I’ll be honest, as an abused child myself, I had to stop listening a couple of times as I was overtaken by heartbreak and anxiety- I finished the book because I needed to know Jandro would be okay. I am glad I did! I’ve felt every possible emotion with this book- few authors can do that. Un abrazo hermano 💖

Doloroso y lleno de amor
La literatura nos salva y este libro sin lugar a dudas es sanador y liberador.
Una historia que no nos deja indiferentes, marcada de dolor y que al mismo tiempo nos enseña a soltar, amar y enfocarnos en lo que nos salva de tanto dolor.
Gracias Alejandro por hacer de este libro un abrazo al corazón.

Deprimente.
Lo que me gustó fué haber terminado este aburrido libro.
Lo que no me gustó fue la voz y la narración más plana y aburrida.
Y tampoco me gustó que este hombre, nunca pudo , porque no lo quiso,
recuperarse y salir adelante.
