4/1: Leggi con calma
Audio Book - Science fiction
Sinossi: Una mail misteriosa, inviata da una persona che non potrebbe farlo in quel momento. Una corsa contro il tempo senza sapere perché e cosa sta succedendo. Attraversando a bordo del suo furgone arancione un intero universo, Oscar tornerà dalla sua amata Elena. Elena capirà quanto ama il suo uomo sapendolo perso nell'immensità dello spazio. Entrambi riusciranno a collaborare per il medesimo fine senza necessità di parlarsi, e scopriranno di conoscere l'uno dell'altra molto più di quanto non immaginassero fino a quel momento. “Leggi con calma” è profetico nella sua apparente contraddizione con il contesto, in cui si richiede rapidità di pensiero e di azione. La calma richiesta è più una qualità zen, che una spinta verso la fretta sconsiderata. Vorrei ringraziare Douglas Noel Adams per quello che ha fatto per l'umanità.
