Description
"Cerca del lago en Beartown hay una pista de hielo, y en la pista Kevin, Amat, Benji y el resto del. Equipo junior de hockey sobre hielo está a punto de competir en la semifinal nacional; y, de hecho, tiene la oportunidad de ganar. Todos los sueños y esperanzas de este lugar descansan ahora sobre los hombros de un grupo de adolescentes. Bajo la pesada carga, el partido se convierte en la catálisis de un acto violento que dejará a una joven traumatizada y a un pueblo en confusión. Se hacen las acusaciones y, como olas en un estanque, viajan a través de Beartown. Ésta es el a historia de un pueblo y de un juego, pero aún más, una historia sobre la lealtad, el compromiso y las responsabilidades de la amistad; de las personas a quienes decepcionamos aunque las amemos; y de las decisiones que hacemos cada día y nos definen. En esta historia sobre un pueblo pequeño en el bosque, Fredrik Backman ha encontrado el mundo entero." --,Provided by publisher.
Description
"Near the lake in Beartown there is an ice rink, and on the rink Kevin, Amat, Benji and the rest of the junior ice hockey team is about to compete in the national semi-final; and actually has a chance to win. All the hopes and dreams of this place now rest on the shoulders of a group of teenagers. Under the heavy load, the match becomes the catalyst for a violent act that will leave a young girl traumatized and a town in turmoil. Accusations are made and, like waves in a pond, they travel through Beartown.This is the story of a town and a game, but even more, a story about loyalty, commitment and the responsibilities of friendship; of the people we let down even though we love them; and of the decisions we make every day that define us. In this story about a small town in the woods, Fredrik Backman has found the whole world." --,Provided by publisher.
