«Qué habría ocurrido si aquel día lejano de mi infancia no hubiera regresado al sótano por el mismo agujero por el que había salido de él. Tal vez la vida hubiera mantenido siempre aquel brillo o aquella fiebre».

«Hay libros que, al modo del automóvil que se salta un semáforo, se cruzan violentamente en tu existencia. Este es de los que se saltan el semáforo --explica Millás--. Me habían encargado un reportaje sobre mí mismo, de forma que comencé a seguirme. Un día me dije: "Mi padre tenía un taller de aparatos de electromedicina". Entonces se me apareció el taller, conmigo y con mi padre dentro. Él estaba probando un bisturí eléctrico sobre un filete. De súbito, me dijo: "Fíjate, Juanjo, cauteriza la herida en el momento mismo de producirla". Comprendí que la escritura, como el bisturí, cicatrizaba las heridas en el instante de abrirlas e intuí por qué era escritor. Acababa de ser arrollado por una novela».

Ganadora del Premio Nacional de Narrativa y del Premio Planeta, alabada por la crítica y los lectores, El mundo narra con maestría el tránsito a la vida adulta de un adolescente, pero también el descubrimiento de una manera original e imaginativa de observar y entender la realidad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"What would have happened if on that distant childhood day I hadn't gone back to the basement through the same hole I had crawled out from? Maybe life would have forever kept that same glow, or that fever."

"There are books that, same as a car running a red light, violently cross your path. This is one of those books that run a red light," explains Millás. "I had been assigned to write a story about myself, so I began following me. One day I said to myself, 'My father had a store of electro-medical equipment.' And then the shop appeared before me, with me and my father inside. He was testing an electric scalpel on a steak. Suddenly, he said, 'Look, Juanjo, it cauterizes the wound as it opens it.' I understood that writing, just like that scalpel, cauterizes wounds while it opens them, and I knew why I was a writer. I had just been run over by a novel."

Winner of both the National Narrative Award and the Premio Planeta, praised by critics and readers alike, The World masterfully describes the transition of a teenage boy to adult life, but also the discovery of an original and imaginative way to observe and understand reality.

Amazing!

Wow, what to say about this glitter spray. If you want to cosplay as a Twilight vampire, buy this spray. Haha. I’m not even kidding. I got this spray for going to a concert - one of the few occasions I go all out in getting dressed up. I LOVE sparkly/shiny/glittery things, so this spray seemed like an obvious choice. I did a very light, quick spray over my face/neck and OH. MY. GOSH. “I look like a vampire from Twilight.” My first thought/words after looking at myself in the mirror. My mom got a pretty big kick out of it and couldn’t stop giggling because that’s all she could think about afterward whenever she looked at me. I expected this spray to be something I’d have to spray multiple coats of, but absolutely not. This is a one and done spray. The glitter is HIGHLY CONCENTRATED. Very, very sparkly with multifaceted color sparkles - not just silver. I got some on my hair when I sprayed myself, so I went ahead and sprayed the back of my hair too. Didn’t put any kind of film or anything in my hair. I was still able to brush it and do everything else as if there was nothing in my hair. At the end of the night, it washed off very easily. I will say as a pointer, unless you want your hair or clothes to have glitter on them as well, then you should apply this glitter spray BEFORE you get dressed and you should wear a shower cap/bag/something to cover your hair while applying. However, it works just fine on your hair and clothes as well - no staining or damage. The can looks small BUT with how little you have to use, one can will go a very long way. I could go to 10 concerts and I’m pretty sure this can would still be more than half full. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

SO SPARKLY!
Number of Items: 1
IT MADE ME SO SHINY! I love this spray so much. It dries quickly and lasts a while. Even though the bottle is small, a little bit goes a long way. It is easy to apply and is small enough you can carry it around so you can glitter other people, since people will definitely ask! I have used this one bottle many times.

For Those Who Love A LOT of Glitter
Number of Items: 2
This glitter is for those that love lots of glitter. It sprays out in abundance quickly and lasts in hair. After I ran a 5k, the glitter in my hair was still in tact in full effect. It had shed off of my clothes for the most part, but good for lasting in hair.
