Book Description

August 7, 2007
"Toda familia es una historia de fantasmas..."

Mitch Albom conquistó lectores en todo el mundo con los bestsellers número uno en el New York Times, Las cinco personas que encontrarás en el cielo y Martes con mi viejo profesor. Ahora regresa con esta bellísima e inolvidable novela sobre el amor familiar y las oportunidades que dejamos pasar.

Por un día más es la historia de una relación entre una madre y un hijo que dura toda una vida y mucho más. Explora la siguiente pregunta: ¿Qué harías tú si pudieras pasar un día más con un ser querido que ya no está?

De niño, Charley Benetto aprende de su padre que "Puedes ser un niño de mamá o un niño de papá. Pero no puedes ser ambas cosas a la vez." Entonces elige a su padre y lo idolatra -- hasta el día en que desaparece. A los once años, Charley queda en manos de su madre, quien muy valientemente lo cría ella sola a pesar de la vergüenza y el anhelo de Charley por ser parte de una familia completa.

Décadas más tarde, Charley es un hombre descompuesto. El alcohol y el remordimiento han ido desmoronando su vida. Pierde su trabajo. Deja a su familia. Toca fondo al descubrir que su única hija no lo invitó a su matrimonio.

Entonces decide quitarse la vida.

A medianoche emprende un viaje a su pequeño pueblo natal para acabar con su existencia. Pero al fracasar hasta en eso, se tambalea hasta su antigua casa, donde hace un increíble descubrimiento. Su madre -- que murió ocho años atrás -- aún se encuentra en la casa y lo recibe como si nada hubiera pasado.

Lo que sigue es un día "cualquiera" como el que muchos anhelamos, una oportunidad para reconciliarnos con un familiar desaparecido, para explicar secretos familiares y para buscar perdón. En algún lugar entre esta vida y la otra, Charley se entera de cosas que nunca había sabido sobre su madre y lo mucho que sacrificó. Y con su cariñosa ayuda, Charley intenta recomponer los trozos rotos de su vida.

Por medio de los inspiradores personajes y la magistral escritura de Albom, los lectores volverán a apreciar a las personas que quieren -- y creen haber perdido -- en sus propias vidas. Por un día más es un libro para cualquier miembro de la familia y que será apreciado por los millones fans de Albom en todo el mundo.

Mitch Albom es el autor de los bestsellers internacionales Las cinco personas que encontrarás en el cielo, Martes con mi viejo profesor, y de seis libros más. También escribe guiones cinematográficos y obras de teatro. Albom está en la junta directiva de diversas obras caritativas y ha fundado tres obras de caridad en el área de Detroit. Vive con su esposa, Janine, en Michigan.

5.0 out of 5 stars For One More Day, story of a lifetime, November 7, 2006
This review is from: Por Un Dia Mas (Spanish Edition) (Hardcover)
I haven't finished this book, I just bought it yesterday, but I am already half way through. This is one of the best stories I have ever read. It really made me think about my relationship with my mother, and how much I will miss her when she "goes home". It also reminded me of the sacrifices my mother has made for me and my siblings, and how we don't appreciate the life she gave up, the stuggles she has lived thru and how really she gave her life for us. Why do we leave so many things left unsaid? Chick has struggled all his life, and when it's almost too late he finally begins to really "see" his mother. So much pain and heartache could have been avoided in his life and in all of ours if we just took the time.

Because I saw nothing in Amazon's presentation of "Por un dia mas" CD telling me this is an abridged version, I was surprised and disappointed to discover this when the product arrived. 3 CD's.
