Nick Hornby
In Nick Hornby's tips to Be Good, Katie Carr is definitely attempting to be. that is why she turned
a GP. that is why she cares approximately 3rd international debt and homelessness, and
struggles to elevate her childrens with a conscience. it is also why she places up together with
her husband David, the self-styled Angriest guy in Holloway. yet one fateful day, she reveals
herself in a Leeds parking lot, having simply slept with one other How to Be Good man. What
Katie does not but observe is that her fall from grace is simply step one on a religious trip extra
torturous than the interstate at rush hour. Because, brought on by way of his wife's actions,
David is set to prevent being angry. he is approximately to turn into good--not politically correct,
organic-food-eating good, yet stable within the style of the Gospels. and that is no more
uncomplicated in modern day Holloway than it was once in historic Israel. Hornby ability us to
take his name literally: How will we be How to Be Good good, and what does that mean?
However, rather except hard that his readers scrub their souls with the closest to be had Brillo
pad, he additionally mesmerizes us with that cocktail of wit and compassion that has turn into
his trademark. the result's a multifaceted jewel of a book: a hilarious romp, a painstaking
dissection of middle-class mores, and a powerfully sympathetic portrait of a wedding in its loss
of life throes. it truly is not easy to grasp even if to giggle or cry as we watch David forcing his
little ones to offer away their computers, drawing up schemes for the mass redistribution of
wealth, and welcoming his wife's so much desolate sufferers around for a Sunday roast. yet that
is simply because the right way to Be solid How to Be Good manages to be either brutally fair
and entire of hope. It will not outsell the Bible, yet it is a lot funnier. --Matthew BaylisFrom
Publishers WeeklyKate, a doctor, spouse and mother, is in the course of a tough decision: no
matter if to depart or stick with her bitter, sarcastic husband David (who proudly How to Be
Good writes a neighborhood newspaper column referred to as "The Angriest guy in Holloway").
The long term marriage has long past stale, yet is it worthy uprooting the kids and the cozy
lifestyle? Then David meets a religion healer known as Dr. Goodnews, and all at once converts
to an idealistic do-gooder: donating the kid's computing device to an orphanage, freely giving
the family's Sunday dinner to homeless humans and alluring runaways to stick within the visitor
room (and convincing the buddies to do likewise). Barber offers an exceptional functionality as
Kate, humorously conveying her mounting inflammation at having her funds and assets donated
to strangers, her guilt at now not feeling extra beneficiant and her hilarious hope for revenge.
Barber brilliantly portrays each one eccentric character: hippie-ish Goodnews, crusading David,
petulant childrens and, poignantly, the hesitant, halting Barmy Brian, a mentally poor sufferer of
Kate's who How to Be Good wishes having a look after. Barber's stellar functionality turns a
priceless novel right into a must-listen event. Simultaneous free up with Riverhead hardcover
(Forecasts, June 25).
Mi primer Hornby ¡Hurra! Gracias Kitty, gracias Núria excelente recomendación. Ya tengo 31
Canciones en l. a. repisa.¿Por dónde comenzar? Será por mi absoluta identificación con el
mundo reflexivo de los angeles Doctora Katie Carr. En su mente, es decir donde sucede toda l.
a. novela, soy ella. No en sus acciones y decisiones, y definitivamente no soy ella en el rumbo
que toma su vida ni en su destino final, yo de l. a. primera página en adelante hubiese
derrotado por caminos bien distintos.Pero a donde quiera que vaya, suceda lo que suceda en
el mundo external y con los demás –cambien milagrosamente o no– yo como Katie seguiría
atrapada en mi mente, en mi autocomplacencia, en mi autocrítica, en los angeles eterna
reflexión, en l. a. duda, en los angeles insaciable búsqueda de reafirmación, en el escepticismo,
en el miramiento del eterno “y si…”, en los angeles necesidad de cumplir con estándares pero
escapando a los clichés, en los angeles manía de adelantarme hacia los angeles idealización,
en saltarme por How to Be Good completo l. a. realidad presente y esa necesidad de ser más:
más aceptada, más correcta, más feliz, más perfecta, más buena y esa irreducible sensación
de que por más que lo intento algo no encaja, algo no está bien “Porque l. a. gente como yo
siempre está pensando que está equivocada; casi siempre está segura de que va a ir al
infierno, por mucho que en grandísima medida sus pensamientos de vigilia vayan encaminados
a los angeles consecución de lo contrario”.Como ella, yo me estrello contra los angeles
negative ironía que nace de tanto fermentar ponderaciones, juicios, opciones, pensamientos y
decisiones porque “A veces hemos de ser juzgados por nuestros actos únicos.”Como comentó
Núria “tiene muchas capas” esta novela. drawback de l. a. mediana edad “En cierto modo he
perdido el norte y eso me asusta.”; complicaciones de existenciales sobre los angeles vida
matrimonial “…como si dormir en l. a. misma cama fuera lo único que importa en el hecho de
estar casados.”; sobre los angeles vida standard “Los rituales familiares se asemejan a esas
flores del desierto increíblemente resistentes, capaces de florecer en los terrenos más
inhóspitos.”; sobre los angeles comunicación en pareja “El cinismo es nuestro lenguaje común
How to Be Good compartido.”Todo comienza como una anécdota más bien gastada sobre l. a.
vida How to Be Good en el matrimonio y sus momentos menos amables. A pesar de esa
simpleza es tratado How to Be Good con gusto de escalpelo … “…de súbito me asaltó los
angeles nauseabunda sensación de lo bien que conocía ese silencio, su forma y su tacto y
todos sus mordaces recovecos.”El tacto del silencio. Que lance l. a. primera piedra quien no
conoce el tacto del silencio en pareja. ¡Que profundamente dolorosa y literal es esa
metáfora!Para entonces creí que me encontraba ante un largo pesado y doloroso drama. Y lo
es. Sólo que se pone tan absurdamente divertido y es delicioso.Poco a poco l. a. historia
comienza a adquirir matices de globalización de cierto modo toda l. a. novela es una tremenda
cachetada. ¿A qué?Hornby responde en una entrevista: "Si tuviera que resumirla de esa
manera (y no es que quiera hacerlo) diría que muestra el reconocimiento liberal de las
contradicciones del liberalismo."Yo lo reduciría a semántica.Ser buenos y tener una buena vida
no significan lo mismo, y querer que ambas cosas coexistan en los angeles praxis
definitivamente producirá una antinomia ethical en l. a. psique.En castellano, por ejemplo, How
to Be Good no puedes pretender que tener aire a acondicionado es bueno para el planeta. Y
así mil millones de ejemplos de cómo lo que queremos tiene un alto precio social. Ser buenos
no garantiza una buena vida y para tener una buena vida no es necesario ser buenos (eso es
muy evidente, si no pregúntenle a los narcos dueños de los angeles mansión en Desierto de
los Leones en México que tenían hasta tigres albinos, dos panteras, un león.. and so on and so
on etc)Es una crítica a querer demasiado supongo o una crítica al no saber lo que quieres, a
los angeles ambigüedad de pretenciosas expectativas. O te dedicas a ser bueno según algún
handbook y pagas el precio de ello, o te dedicas a tener una buena vida y pagas el precio de
ello. Pero ambas cosas en sentido absoluto como que es mucha soberbia pretenderlo. Y How
to Be Good una imbecilidad creer que no tiene precio.Y hasta perece que lanzara yo un
sermón.Pero es que creo que ese es conflicto nuclear de los angeles novela. Queremos tanto,
tanto, tanto así que somos obscenos. Queremos casa, una pareja How to Be Good romántica
horny dulce colaboradora comprometida que nos entienda que vaya en nuestra dirección,
queremos hijos modelos bellos inteligentes sociales sanos, queremos un trabajo bien
remunerado reconocido con categoría y para colmo queremos ser buenos. Queremos que
cesen las guerras, queremos que los ancianos sean amados, queremos justicia en el mundo, el
fin de l. a. violencia, erradicar el hambre, que no hayan más locos, enfermos vagabundos ni
niños ni mascotas abandonados en l. a. calle. Queremos eso. ¿Quién no? ¿Quién quiere lo
contrario?Lo queremos desde l. a. comodidad de una buena vida, en el centro de una buena
sala, frente a una buena comida ante un buen televisor al lado de una buena pareja. (Yo quiero
eso)O por lo menos, mínimo, que todo eso del hambre los angeles enfermedad l. a. guerra y
los angeles locura estén bien lejos de mi calle de enfrente.Y además, no queremos ser
hipócritas. Hablo de mi y de las y los Katie del mundo.No queremos reconocer que queremos
eso y l. a. buena casa. Y que, que broma no?, los angeles buena casa no es How to Be Good
suitable con indigentes en los angeles puerta a los cuales darles una ayuda.Supongo que es
una critica los angeles vida fatua y pretenciosa del “suburbio”. Critica nuestras expectativas y
el formato según tomamos las decisiones de nuestra vida.Yo decidí no intentar ni en lo más
mínimo ser buena genéricamente hablando. Prefiero encontrar ser buena en algo y ser feliz con
ello. Y si eso choca moralmente con ciertas tristes realidades How to Be Good del mundo, pues
qué se le hará? tocará dejarme meter en el gueto de los cínicos. Porque los seres humanos
disque civilizados no podemos andarnos sin etiquetar y clasificarlo todo, sin separar lo bueno
de lo malo, ¿será porque no podemos conciliar nuestras contradicciones, nuestras expectativas
de vida privada con nuestras expectativas de vida colectiva?Al fin y al cabo, también quiero que
los demás sean felices… pero que trabajen y se esfuercen por ello. Que ellos (todos, los demás,
incluyendo a mi pareja) sean buenos para algo y encuentren su felicidad allí.¿Pero para qué
tanto moralismo y evaluación si lo que me parece más importante de l. a. novela es otra
cosa?Es ser Katie Carr y escucharme/leerme/darme cuenta de que“Es el acto mismo de leer lo
que echo en falta, los angeles oportunidad de apartarme más y más del mundo hasta hallar por
fin un poco de espacio, un poco de aire no viciado, un aire que no haya sido respirado ya un
millar de veces por mi familia.”… “Y no es sólo l. a. lectura sino el hecho de escuchar, de
escuchar algo distinto a los programas de televisión de mis hijos y l. a. cantinela pía de mi
marido y los angeles cháchara los angeles cháchara l. a. cháchara del inside de mi
cabeza…”Porque al leer ya no estoy atrapada ni en mi mente ni en el mundo ni en las
dicotomías entre lo bueno y lo malo.Leyendo ya no hay autocomplacencia, autocrítica,
reflexión, duda, búsqueda de reafirmación, escepticismo, necesidad de cumplir con estándares,
escapar a los clichés, manía de adelantarme hacia los angeles idealización… etc, etc,
etc.Leyendo no me siento perdida pero si soy absolutamente inubicable.Al ultimate l. a. novela
me dejó tan profundamente deprimida, me tomó un par de días How to Be Good si quiera
comentar lo triste que quedé.Katie… pobrecita ¡Qué bueno que no soy ella!Hornby dice: "Creo
que los angeles gente se ha fijado en dilemas morales que no period mi intención plantear; el
libro acaba con una imagen desoladora de los angeles vida familiar, y sin embargo uno o dos
críticas que me he permitido leer sugieren que el libro acaba con Katie redescubriendo los
angeles cultura, como si el libro tuviera un ultimate reconfortante. No lo tiene."La disfruté
infinitamente porque me agarró como una buena obra de teatro de esas que producen catarsis,
que desatan reacciones internas y en algo, por mísero que sea, te toca y te cambia.
