الألم، هوهذا الشئ الذي يحطم قلب، الألم هو الموت من دون قدرة على البوح بسرنا لأي كان.

قد ايه حياة زيزا صعبة وقاسية ورغم كدا لسه محتفط بالكم ده من الحب والحنان بداخله. الألم هو معناتنا في مواكبة أحداث القصة ومنظورها من عين طفل عنده ست سنين بيتعرض لكل الظلم ده من غير ما نقفل الكتاب.

أسلوب جديد ومشوق جدا، الأحداث بتتحرك بشكل سريع للغاية وفي نفس الصفحة ممكن نتحرك من مدرسة زيزا للبيت للمغامرة مع أحد من ابطال الرواية وده جديد عليا الحقيقة لان معظم الروايات اللي قرأتها بتكون أبطأ من كدا ولكن ده طبعا ماسبش اي فرصة للممل للقارئ.

متشوقة أقرأ الجزء التاني والتالت في الثلاثية.

This Brazilian classic is such a moving, heart wrenching, powerful book about life and grief. I feel for Zezé as I definitely relate to part of his story. Seeing the black and white of Zezé’s worlds turning into grey and then into color was transformative and inspiring. Since this was based on a true story I hope Zezé and Manuel have reunited and have been on eternal adventures together since ✨
