NOVEDADES

Hay una persona con la que dialogas, debates, discutes, te enojas y te reconcilias varias veces al día. Y no, no es tu pareja, ni tu jefe, ni tu padre ni tu madre. Eres tú. Tú eres la persona con quien más hablas e, irremediablemente, a quien más escuchas. Pero no siempre te hablas bien, ni siquiera con el respeto que pedirías a los demás. Y esto repercute en la relación que tienes contigo mismo, además de afectar directamente a tu autoestima y tu salud mental. Tanto que a menudo te boicoteas y te terminas convirtiendo, sin saberlo, en tu peor enemigo. La neuropsicóloga Alba Cardalda nos muestra en este libro cómo operan nuestros diálogos internos y nos enseña la importancia de cuidarlos. Y, por supuesto, nos da las herramientas y las claves para mejorarlos y empezar a tratarnos con el cariño y el amor que merecemos.

When professional hockey player Sig Gauthier’s car breaks down and his phone dies, he treks into a posh private country club to call a tow truck, where he encounters the alluring Chloe Clifford, the manic pixie dream girl who captivates him immediately with her sense of adventure and penchant for stealing champagne. Sparks fly during a moonlight kiss and the enamored pair can’t wait to see each other again, but when Sig finally arrives to meet his dad’s new girlfriend over dinner, Chloe is confusingly also there. Turns out the girlfriend is Chloe’s mother. Oh, and they’re engaged. Sig’s dream girl is his future stepsister. Though the pair is now wary of being involved romantically, Chloe, a sheltered harp prodigy, yearns to escape her controlling mother. Sig promises to teach her the ins and outs of independence in Boston―a lesson in forced proximity that keeps them agonizingly close, but not inside his bedroom. In this forbidden romance, they both know there can never be more than friendship between a famous hockey player and his high-society, soon-to-be stepsister. But keeping their relationship platonic grows harder amid the developing family drama, especially knowing they were meant for so much more…

At first glance, Harry Haller seems like a respectable, educated man. In reality, he is the Steppenwolf: wild, strange, alienated from society, and repulsed by the modern age. But as he is drawn into a series of dreamlike and sometimes savage encounters—accompanied by, among others, Mozart, Goethe, and the bewitching Hermione—the misanthropic Haller undergoes a spiritual, even psychedelic, journey, and ultimately discovers a higher truth and the possibility of happiness.
