Publisher Description:
El rastreador de conchas re ne ocho asombroso relatos in ditos del autor de La luz que no puedes ver, que consiguen llevarnos alrededor del mundo... y al interior de nuestros corazones.

El primer libro de Anthony Doerr compendia ocho relatos a trav s de los cuales el autor transporta al lector de la costa africana a los frondosos bosques de pinos de Montana y a los h medos p ramos de Lapland, trazando un vasto itinerario geogr fico, pero tambi n emocional. Doerr explora la condici n humana en todas sus formas -metamorfosis, dolor, relaciones rotas, corazones que lentamente sienten c mo sus heridas cicatrizan-, evocando a la naturaleza en sus dos vertientes: la de la hermosa abundancia y la del temible poder que alberga y del que hace gala en ocasiones.

Los personajes que deambulan por estas p ginas se enfrentan a adversidades que en todo momento parece que los van a superar, buscan su lugar en este mundo en constante devenir... y se encuentran unidos por la inquebrantable amarradura al deslumbrante universo que los rodea.

Rese as:

ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThe "perilously beautiful" (Boston Globe) first story collection by the author of the acclaimed Pulitzer Prize-winning #1 New York Times bestseller All The Light We Cannot See. The exquisitely crafted stories in Anthony Doerr's debut collection take readers from the African Coast to the pine forests of Montana to the damp moors of Lapland, charting a vast physical and emotional landscape. Doerr explores the human condition in all its varieties--metamorphosis, grief, fractured relationships, and slowly mending hearts--conjuring nature in both its beautiful abundance and crushing power. Some of the characters in these stories contend with hardships; some discover unique gifts; all are united by their ultimate deference to the ravishing universe outside themselves.
