Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Yunjae nacio con alexitimia, una enfermedad que le impide reconocer y expresar emociones, y que esta asociada a un crecimiento inferior de la amigdala cerebral, generalmente del tamano de una almendra. Su madre soltera y su abuela hacen todo lo posible por ayudarlo a relacionarse con los demas, si bien en la escuela se enfrenta a la intimidacion y al rechazo de sus companeros por su comportamiento indolente. Pero un dia ocurre la tragedia: en la tarde de su decimosexto cumpleanos, la madre y la abuela de Yunjae son victimas de un violento ataque callejero que termina con su abuela muerta y su madre postrada en cama en estado vegetativo. Yunjae tendra entonces que vivir solo y encargarse de la libreria de libros usados de su familia. Es entonces cuando sucede el inesperado encuentro con Gon, un chico volatil, propenso al mal humor y a las peleas, que ha sufrido una infancia traumatica. Ambos son polos opuestos, pero el rechazo que sufren --cada uno por diferentes razones-- por una sociedad que no los entiende, hace que pasen de ser enemigos, a cultivar una peculiar amistad. Podra la relacion con Gon, el encuentro con una chica llamada Dora que solo suena con correr, y su intervencion. Yunjae was born with alexithymia, a disease that prevents him from recognizing and expressing emotions, and which is associated with undergrowth of the brain amygdala, usually the size of an almond. His single mother and his grandmother go out of their way to help him relate to others, although at school he faces bullying and rejection from his peers for his indolent behavior. But one day tragedy strikes: on the afternoon of his sixteenth birthday, Yunjae's mother and grandmother are victims of a violent street attack that ends with their grandmother dead and their mother bedridden in a vegetative state. Yunjae will then have to live alone and take care of his family's used bookstore. It is then that the unexpected encounter with Gon happens, a volatile boy, prone to bad humor and fights, who has suffered a traumatic childhood. Both are polar opposites, but the rejection they suffer - each for different reasons - by a society that does not understand them, makes them go from being enemies to cultivating a peculiar friendship. Can the relationship with Gon, the meeting with a girl named Dora who only dreams of running, and his intervention.
