Ces deux-là sont liés par un truc indéfinissable, et rien ni personne ne pourrait passer avant leur amitié.

Este es un libro sobre la historia de los libros. Un recorrido por la vida de ese fascinante artefacto que inventamos para que las palabras pudieran viajar en el espacio y en el tiempo. La historia de su fabricación, de todos los tipos que hemos ensayado a lo largo de casi 30 siglos: libros de humo, de piedra, de arcilla, de juncos, de seda, de piel, de árboles y, los últimos llegados, de plástico y luz.

Nothing brings him more joy than riling her up, but when a tragedy forces them closer than ever, he must grapple with the uncertainty of his future—and the realization that the only person immune to his charms is the only one he truly wants.

Tutta la verità. Ma obliqua. Intraducibile Emily Dickinson, se non con nuove figure, nuove immagini, una nuova storia. È quello che fa Elena Varvello con "Solo un ragazzo", che a sua volta è la risposta semplice e assoluta a una domanda che urge per tutto il libro: "Che cosa sei?" È ciò che chiedono i padri e che soffrono le madri di fronte all'enigma dell'adolescenza. Un'età che fugge e sfugge, un'età malvagia e innocente, che conserva e spreca: l'età della contaminazione.

Considerada la obra más madura de Lorca, La casa de Bernarda Alba cierra la llamada trilogía de la tragedia -formada también por Bodas de sangre y Yerma-. Su carácter realista y la opresión en el pecho que se siente ante la represión de unas mujeres atrapadas en un frío infierno de luto, celos, silencio y sueños truncados se ha interpretado como un presagio de los oscuros tiempos que se avecinaban y en los que el propio Lorca se convertiría en una víctima prematura.
