Que bela forma de começar 2021!
Este livro ganhou, sem dúvida, um lugarzinho no meu coração. Toda a história, acompanhada por um grafismo que nos prende a cada imagem, transforma este livro numa viagem através da vida dos seus personagens principais. Não deixa de ser uma história melancólica, com uma mensagem forte sobre a forma como levamos a nossa vida e como encaramos os nossos sonhos.
Foi uma leitura tão fácil e leve, que sem dúvida vou repetir várias vezes!
This is almost always the book I recommend on the “I am not a robot” question. I do not always have the opportunity to recommend it though, and this one truly deserves to be massively read.
We were in the middle of the pandemic when Filipe Mello and Juan Cavia published this book. Luckily, I have quit quarantine and sterilizing boxes after their arrival, and I immediately open the package. Inside was the most beautiful book I read in a while, and I went through it in one sitting.
Since then, I keep offering this book to friends and family, so you can see how much I love it.
Both Filipe Melo and Juan Cavia have background in cinematography, which turns the experience of reading their books pretty similar to watching a beautiful movie. As Filipe is also a musician, this book has its own score at the end, and let me tell you, it is so beautiful that it was one of the musics I selected for my wedding.
It's true I love everything this Duo puts together, but they truly shine in this one.
Ballad for Sophie is a hauntingly beautiful tale of love, rivalry, jealousy, music, fame and redemption. If I can persuade you to read a book, please let it be this one.
Because I don't have enough words, I'll leave you with the book trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WPRBGHp4dI
P.S: Wouldn't it be nice to have book trailers for every book?
