NUNCA he llorado tanto por un libro. Tal vez haya sido que me pilló desprevenida, pero me rompió. La manera en la que Steinbeck describe los paisajes es increíble, como si estuvieses viendo el paisaje tu misma. Los personajes son muy entrañables.
100% recomendado. Es una lectura corta y rápida, y por supuesto triste.

Have you ever read the book that you constantly put aside and come back to? Not that it's not interesting, but something just doesn't click. Then you reach the end and it finishes you off.

It's a short book but it was a slow read for me. I wonder what reading experience I'd have a few years later, yet I'm not sure I'll be willing to pick it up again. The revelation of the simple complexity of life is too painstaking.

I typically reserve five star reviews for books that I would gladly read over and over. This one is not the case. This one gets five stars because it is raw, gut wrenching, and undeniably human.
