Sinossi
Quando telefonano alla madre di Stol per avvertirla dell'incidente accaduto a suo figlio, lei - eccentrica stilista in Nicaragua per un servizio fotografico - risulta irraggiungibile. Il cellulare non prende, non c'è campo. Ma non c'è mai stato "campo" fra Stol e la sua famiglia. Questo vuoto di comunicazione spinge Stol a osare azioni temerarie, a perdere il senso del limite. Eppure Stol ha una personalità straordinariamente creativa, anticonvenzionale, polemica, capace di grandi felicità e illusioni, come ci appare nel racconto che il suo amico Ian scrive su di lui. Ian, riflessivo di natura, possiede la forza e la chiarezza della propria normalità; ricostruendo la vita di Stol, cerca di offrigli uno specchio veritiero in cui imparare a conoscere se stesso, ad aprire il "campo" tra la mente e il corpo. E insieme ad attivare un rapporto con gli altri e a non aver paura della libertà di parola, di pensiero, di immaginazione. Età di lettura: da 12 anni.

Not a fan. The characters were well developed and the stories behind each were well done, but the whole point in all wasn’t a fall-in-love, read-again type book. It really wasn’t all the necessary in the world. The writing style was cool I guess. It was Ian telling everything well Stolly lays in the Leggi tutto
HORRIBLE book. I can't believe this book minimizes suicidal tendencies and depression as much as it does. Ian is supposed to be Stolly's best friend and he HIDES the fact his friend has mental health issues even though he nearly died?! I just can't understand it.
Really out if its time now. I'd have liked this 20 years ago but I think we've moved on in out understanding of suicidal ideation. I would point out that the parents DO know a out the attempt by the end of the book but it isn't helpful for a kids' book to instill such distrust of professionals eg th Leggi tutto
