Con una prosa íntima y reveladora, el autor nos invita a cuestionar el significado de la adaptación sin perder nuestra raíz, cuando el cambio no siempre nace del deseo, sino de la necesidad.

At a time when victory over the secessionists in the American Civil War was within days and slavery was near an end, Lincoln spoke of sadness.

Instead, he called on the entire country's guilt for the bloody war and argued for reconciliation and unity.

Sono dei perdenti, gli «eroi» di Yehoshua; uomini stanchi, incapaci di raggiungere i propri scopi, privi di certezze. Nemmeno i sentimenti sono un'ancora di salvezza, gli equilibri familiari sono fragili, gli amori disillusi.
