  "Lectura "Noah's Compass"" by Alicia (see profile) 09/13/10

Me parecio una bonita historia. Ciertamente no en un sentido convencional. Al igual que me parecio muy tierna y no se trata de una historia dulce. Yo creo que la autora nos quiere transmitir que en realidad nosotros mismos nos marcamos los limites en nuestra vida; y al mismo tiempo la vidas nos marca a nosotros.
Hay una parte del libro en que el personaje principal; Liam hablando con su nieto sobre Noé (el del arca y el diluvio) le trata de explicar que es una brújula. Y menciona que en realidad Noé, no solo no uso brújula, sino que no la necesito, porque no iba a ninguna parte. Solo se mantenia a flote en lo que pasaba la tormenta. Esta anecdota explica toda la historia.
