I am aware that the Putojacktwist likes almost everything you read, or at least review only in their cultural chronic DosManzanas what you like. And is that against polymorphous perverse as the writer of this blog, glad to meet friendly people who always know how to find the bright side: they do not see that gives us peace of mind knowing that our future writings in book form will have a proven benevolence .
Anyway, it was in one of its essential "Breakfast on Uranus" on Fridays where I found the reference to the novel by Fernando J. Lopez and his words in which I found more than enough reason to propose to read. Some astral conjunction wanted to agree the book, because that same afternoon, snooping for study, I found the front and you can imagine, I could not wait to buy it. And to give priority to reading.
've had a little discussion a few weeks ago about my obsession with homosexuality possible. So I will try to explain the attraction that entry was for me, "The Age of Wrath." Yes, speech, among other things, the invisible , a gay student at a college and a family all gays, and everyone knows that teenagers in the manner of the angels have no gender. And a gay high school teacher, and we know that parents would be shocked and cabinets of God-is-Christ if they knew the terrible risks that their children are near these vicious thugs. Maybe that's why I, who was a high school gay teen gay anything, and I taught gay teen in a school where, despite everything, my guidance offered no problems, I knew with the review of José Luis for the first time could me, reading me, identify more or less full with some characters and situations of the novel. Exit silence is important, leave the shade, forget invisibility. Although it is too late, and yet somehow we have previously condemned to live a kind of eternal adolescence in search of our references.
But "The Age of Wrath" is much, much more than a novel in which two main characters are gay. In fact, their greatest appeal lies in a relentless journey to the scenes of a high school today, a journey well informed from our own experience teaching J. Fernando Lopez we propose the reconstruction of "the motives of the Wolf", the causes of a brutal crime is told in the first few pages and intrigue to a reporter to the point of bringing the IES Rubén Darío, his former high school, trying to understand the violence that beats under the age of rage. The comrades of the institute, especially some teachers, will narrate his experience with the murderer and we will open up important questions not only about the authorship of the crime, but on their own assessments before the rusty gears that keep our education system flow.
The novel is one of those with verb easy, simple structure, which is read in one sitting and that he cares more about telling a story with clarity and passion by formal venture into pastures. What does not prevent Fernando J. López has created a particular mosaic constructed from fragments, conversations, reports and emails, drafting class, allowing us to organize the narrative material from our own gaze, and at the same time giving credence to the many voices who speak and practical expression of its own experience in the lives and classrooms. A clean record, in which I have the impression that the author is behind many thoughts, not only after the curious journalist, who takes crime novel modes but it breaks several of their key codes. And above all that gives life and voice to minor characters of our society, those teachers and students involved in as sensitive human development and adolescence. Adolescence that we all talk about, which we all judge, but so rarely try to understand.
say of a book that has been enjoyed, is read with a passion that burned for dialogue with the author's obvious passion and a lot. Without doubt, a great little find to dive for a few hours and look good wet freshness.
