Book Synopsis



La novela corta El trato de su vida de Fredrik Backman, autor de los bestsellesr Gente ansiosa y Un hombre llamado Ove, es un relato profundo y conmovedor sobre la búsqueda de lo que de verdad importa en la vida.

Un padre y su hijo se ven por primera vez después de muchos años. El padre tiene algo que contarle antes de que sea demasiado tarde: la historia de una niña que yace en la cama de un hospital a pocos kilómetros de distancia. La pequeña es valiente y lo bastante inteligente como para saber que no vencerá al cáncer.

Ahora, en una fría noche de invierno, el padre tiene la inesperada oportunidad de hacer algo extraordinario que podría cambiar el destino de una niña a la que apenas conoce. Pero antes de poder hacer el trato de su vida, debe averiguar cuánto ha valido realmente la suya, y sólo su hijo puede darle esa respuesta.


Y cada mañana el camino a casa se vuelve más y más largo es el relato conmovedor de la lucha de un anciano por aferrarse a sus recuerdos más preciados y de los esfuerzos de su familia por cuidarlo incluso cuando deben encontrar la manera de dejarlo ir.

Es una lectura breve, demasiado rápida, pero que llena de amor y ternura. Una novela sobre los recuerdos, esos momentos que solo existen en nuestra memoria, hasta que amenazan con desaparecer.

¿Cómo decir adiós a alguien que no se va físicamente a ninguna parte? Cuando sabes que estás perdiendo la memoria, ¿qué les dices a las personas que quieres, a las que son el centro de esos recuerdos? Y cuando es probable que alguien a quien quieres deje de recordarte dentro de poco, ¿qué le dices ahora mismo que pueda significar algo? Esta novela breve es la historia de tres generaciones que se enfrentan a la pérdida de la memoria.

In the short story Deal of a Lifetime, the bestselling author of Anxious People and A Man Called Ove delivers an insightful and poignant tale about finding out what is truly important in life.

A father and a son are seeing each other for the first time in years. The father has a story to share before it's too late. He tells his son about a courageous little girl lying in a hospital bed a few miles away. She's a smart kid--smart enough to know that she won't beat cancer.

Now, on a cold winter's night, the father has been given an unexpected chance to do something remarkable that could change the destiny of a little girl he hardly knows. But before he can make the deal of a lifetime, he must find out what his own life has actually been worth, and only his son can reveal that answer.

In And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer exquisitely moving portrait of an elderly man's struggle to hold on to his most precious memories, and his family's efforts to care for him even as they must find a way to let go.

How do you say good-bye to someone who isn't physically going anywhere? When you know you are going to lose your memory, what do you say to the people you love, those who are at the center of those memories? And when someone you love is likely not to remember you soon, what do you say right now that will mean something? This novella by the author of the bestseller A Man Called Ove is the story of three generations coming to terms with the loss of memory.
