El Regreso a Villa Fe

Inspiración Para Todos Los Días
  • By José Luis Navajo
$11.79
($12.99)
Product Description
La aventura más significativa en la vida de un niño cobra vida en las letras del mismo chico, ahora en su vejez, y entusiasma a los lectores de Un verano en Villa Fe a regresar a ese lugar con una nueva perspectiva. Y es que el chico, ya adulto, viaja de nuevo a casa de los abuelos inspirado en las enseñanzas que ellos --sus "abus"-- dejaron impresas en su tierna existencia.

El prolífico autor, José Luis Navajo, vuelve a sus andanzas dejando una conmovedora y grata estela literaria a su paso. A través de las experiencias vividas con sus abuelos, plasma en su obra una perspectiva de vida refrescante para los pequeños a los que les ha tocado vivir en estos tiempos de hoy.

Dudas como las siguientes:

- Dios, por qué a la gente buena le ocurren cosas malas?
- Por qué tengo mil preguntas y los demás parecen tener solo respuestas?
- Dios, acaso te importa que me enferme?
- No te importa que no puedo quedarme embarazada?
- No te importa que perdí el trabajo?

Son respondidas con las sabias conversaciones que mantenía con sus abuelos, las cuales marcaron su vida con consejos como estos:

- La gracia, a veces, llega envuelta en aparente desgracia.
- Dios no cambia las circunstancias, las usa para cambiarme a mí.
- A veces es necesario dejar un buen pasado para abrazar un mejor futuro.
- La humildad son el mejor adorno que puede lucir una persona.

Al retornar a las verdes praderas de Villa Fe y alojarse en su habitación con la vista al cielo, el autor emociona al lector con sus aventuras y le deja una pregunta por responder: " Quieres ser la próxima persona en ocupar esa habitación con vista al cielo?"

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The most significant adventure in a boy's life emerges in the boy's own words--now in his old age--and gets the readers of A Summer in Villa Fe excited to return to this place, but with a fresh perspective. This kid, now a grown man, travels back to his grandparents' house, inspired by the teachings they--his "abus"--imprinted upon his existence.

Prolific author José Luis Navajo is at it again, leaving a touching and pleasant literary trail in his wake. Through his grandparents' experience, Navajo captures a view of life in his work that is refreshing for the little ones living in current times.

Concerns such as this:

- God, why do bad things happen to good people?
- Why do I have a thousand questions while others seem to have only answers?
- God, do you even care that I get sick?
- Doesn't it bother you that I can't get pregnant?
- Doesn't it bother you that I lost my job?

Are answered with the same conversations he used to have with his grandparents, which shaped his life with this sort of advice:

  • Grace sometimes comes shrouded in apparent disgrace.
  • God does not change circumstances, but uses them to change me.
  • Sometimes it is necessary to let go of a good past in order to embrace a better future.
  • Humility is the best embellishment a person can have.

Upon returning to Villa Fe's green meadows and staying in his old room with a sky view, the author thrills readers with his adventures and leaves a question to be answered: "Would you like to be the next person to occupy that room overlooking the heavens?"
