O Dia Da Sua Chegada
by Isabel Komorebi* Amor * Estrelas * Poesia * Metafísica « Adormeço com um pensamento, com uma certeza. Para mim, o amor não está na terra, O amor está nas estrelas. » « Num mundo sem fôlego, um rapaz e uma garota se cruzam, abrem seus corações, se valorizam. Eles nunca deveriam ter se conhecido, mas o universo decidiu que sim. Porque a garota tem uma mensagem para o rapaz. Uma mensagem do futuro, uma mensagem de amor. Ele aceitará ouvi-la e se oferecerá à promessa trazida pela noite? » « O amor é o grito do amanhecer. O amor é o hino da noite. "Victor Hugo Le Monde. Ele. Ela. A Noite. Tenho observado ele há muito tempo. Ele, o rapaz sempre de lado. Aquele que não quer ser notado. Aquele que quer ser ignorado. Aquele que não quer falar. Ele nunca olha para a frente, o rapaz com os olhos constantemente colados ao chão. A vida e o tempo parecem deslizar sobre ele como um dia chuvoso. Cinza, triste, melancólico. *** Ele me fala sobre sua infância. Ele nem sequer retém as lágrimas, ele não tem vergonha de largar a dor à minha frente. No entanto, fui avisada que os homens se retraíam, que não gostavam de mostrar as suas mágoas, que isso os fazia sentir fracos, inferiores. Isso é uma tolice. Como abrir seu coração e falar sobre o seu sofrimento seria um sinal de fraqueza? O coração precisa se levantar. Ele precisa ser preenchido, precisa de amar. Ele não esquece, não substitui. Nunca. Mas ele pode crescer. Ainda. Novamente. Outra vez. Para acolher. Para se preencher. Para se fortalecer. Para exaltar. O coração crescer. Novamente. Outra vez. Para amar. Para amar sem limites. Para amar até o infinito, eternamente. Ele: O rapaz destroçado. Ela: A garota vestida de cores que veio das estrelas A noite: a promessa de algo diferente, mais poderoso, maior.

Coming home from work at three a.m., twenty-three-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship--like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armor--April and her friend Andy make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. The next day April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. <P><P>News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world--everywhere from Beijing to Buenos Aires--and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the center of an intense international media spotlight. <P><P>Now April has to deal with the pressure on her relationships, her identity, and her safety that this new position brings, all while being on the front lines of the quest to find out not just what the Carls are, but what they want from us. <P><P>Compulsively entertaining and powerfully relevant, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing grapples with big themes, including how the social internet is changing fame, rhetoric, and radicalization; how our culture deals with fear and uncertainty; and how vilification and adoration spring from the same dehumanization that follows a life in the public eye. <P><b>A New York Times Bestseller</b>
