En este libro, un niño conversa con un adulto, el novio de su mamá, y en ese camino construyen un vínculo. El adulto cuenta su infancia, lentas transformaciones del campo en ciudad. La voz del niño, desconfiada, impaciente, va maravillándose. Juntos, en un largo viaje en colectivo por la ciudad llegan hasta el río. Una emotiva historia de Ruth
Kaufman sobre las maneras en que vemos el mundo.
The child in this story engages in a conversation with an adult, his mother’s boyfriend, and starts bonding with him. The adult tells about his childhood and the slow transition from country to city. The voice of the child, all caution and impatience at first, gives way to sheer wonder. Together, in a long journey by bus through the city, they reach the river. There, they unweave the mystery in the color of the water: ‘I always thought/ all valuable things/ to be like water/ difficult to see/ nearly impossible to grasp.’ A moving story by Ruth Kaufman about the different ways to see the world.
