Bøger af Paolo Giordano

Un clásico inolvidable de Paolo Giordano y más actual que nunca. Cuando su padre la obliga a asistir a una escuela de esquí, Alice sufre un grave accidente que la marcará para siempre. A su vez, Mattia, un niño reservado, carga con las fatales consecuencias de un acto que cometió poco tiempo atrás. La infancia ha causado en Alice y en Mattia esa clase de heridas que difícilmente cicatrizan, y que los abocan a una soledad devastadora durante su adolescencia. Sin embargo, en el momento en que los dos se encuentren, nacerá la amistad y sus vidas se entrecruzarán hasta, en ocasiones, sentirse estrechamente unidos. Alice se dedicará a la fotografía, y Mattia desarrollará su talento para las matemáticas. Y sin embargo, igual que esos números especiales conocidos como «números primos», algo los mantiene irremediablemente «solos y perdidos, juntos pero no lo bastante para tocarse de verdad», como piensa Mattia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the author of Heaven and Earth, a sensational novel about whether a "prime number" can ever truly connect with someone else. A prime number is inherently a solitary thing: it can only be divided by itself, or by one: it never truly fits with another. Alice and Mattia, too, move on their own axis, alone with their personal tragedies. As a child, Alice's overbearing father drove her first to a terrible skiing accident, and then to anorexia. When she meets Mattia she recognizes a kindred, tortured spirit, and Mattia reveals to Alice his terrible secret: that as a boy he abandoned his mentally-disabled twin sister in a park to go to a party, and when he returned, she was nowhere to be found. These two irreversible episodes mark Alice and Mattia's lives for ever, and as they grow into adulthood their destinies seem intertwined: they are divisible only by themselves and each other. But the shadow of the lost twin haunts their relationship, until a chance sighting by Alice of a woman who could be Mattia's sister forces a lifetime of secret emotion to the surface. A meditation on loneliness and love, The Solitude of Prime Numbers asks, can we ever truly be whole when we're in love with another? And when Mattia is asked to choose between human love and his professional love -- of mathematics -- which will make him more complete?

"After losing the future he imagined for himself, a writer sets out in search of connection and purpose at a tipping point with climate change and global conflict, in this breathtaking novel from the Strega Prize-winning author of The Solitude of Prime Numbers. In late 2015, Paolo feels his life coming apart: While his wife, Lorenza, has decided to give up on pregnancy after years of trying, he clings to the dream of becoming a father, not just a father figure to Lorenza's son. As their marriage strains, Paolo immerses himself in work, traveling to Paris to report on the UN Climate Change Conference in the wake of terrorist attacks that shook the world. His journalism dovetails with a book he hopes to write on the atomic bomb and its survivors, a growing obsession that will take him to cities across Europe and ultimately Japan. Along the way, Paolo interacts with a vibrant cast of characters, each struggling to find their own Tasmania, a safe haven in which to weather the coming crises-global warming, pandemics, authoritarian governments, and wars. He develops a friendship with a brilliant, opinionated physicist, who followed the scientific path Paolo had abandoned, and who will test Paolo's loyalty and values. A stunning return to fiction after How Contagion Works, Paolo Giordano's semi-autobiographical novel captures the fear, anxiety, wonder, and beauty of this time of uncertainty and upheaval, exploring how we can create and maintain relationships with other people when it feels increasingly difficult to connect"--

A prime number can only be divided by itself or by one--it never truly fits with another. Alice and Mattia, both primes, recognize in each other a kindred spirit. When a chance occurrence reunites them after years apart, a lifetime of concealed emotions is forced to the surface.
