«Qué habría ocurrido si aquel día lejano de mi infancia no hubiera regresado al sótano por el mismo agujero por el que había salido de él. Tal vez la vida hubiera mantenido siempre aquel brillo o aquella fiebre».«Hay libros que, al modo del automóvil que se salta un semáforo, se cruzan violentamente en tu existencia. Este es de los que se saltan el semáforo --explica Millás--. Me habían encargado un reportaje sobre mí mismo, de forma que comencé a seguirme. Un día me dije: "Mi padre tenía un taller de aparatos de electromedicina". Entonces se me apareció el taller, conmigo y con mi padre dentro. Él estaba probando un bisturí eléctrico sobre un filete. De súbito, me dijo: "Fíjate, Juanjo, cauteriza la herida en el momento mismo de producirla". Comprendí que la escritura, como el bisturí, cicatrizaba las heridas en el instante de abrirlas e intuí por qué era escritor. Acababa de ser arrollado por una novela». Ganadora del Premio Nacional de Narrativa y del Premio Planeta, alabada por la crítica y los lectores, El mundo narra con maestría el tránsito a la vida adulta de un adolescente, pero también el descubrimiento de una manera original e imaginativa de observar y entender la realidad. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "What would have happened if on that distant childhood day I hadn't gone back to the basement through the same hole I had crawled out from? Maybe life would have forever kept that same glow, or that fever." "There are books that, same as a car running a red light, violently cross your path. This is one of those books that run a red light," explains Millás. "I had been assigned to write a story about myself, so I began following me. One day I said to myself, 'My father had a store of electro-medical equipment.' And then the shop appeared before me, with me and my father inside. He was testing an electric scalpel on a steak. Suddenly, he said, 'Look, Juanjo, it cauterizes the wound as it opens it.' I understood that writing, just like that scalpel, cauterizes wounds while it opens them, and I knew why I was a writer. I had just been run over by a novel." Winner of both the National Narrative Award and the Premio Planeta, praised by critics and readers alike, The World masterfully describes the transition of a teenage boy to adult life, but also the discovery of an original and imaginative way to observe and understand reality.

Cute toy for small dogs!
Color: Pinata Dog Toy
My dog is obsessed with this toy. This does not have a squeaker in it which is great cuz she doesnt like them. The crinkles and rope seem very durable. She did eat the tail very quickly but overall its held up well! Great tug toy for a small dog or puppy!

Fun toy for dogs
Color: Dim Sum Dumpling Pet Toy Set
My dogs enjoyed them. They didn’t last long, but it’s not due to the quality of the toy. My dogs are very hard on toys, so this was affordable. You get 3 toys and I have 3 dogs. Win win.
