Desde su primer recuerdo —la explosión de una bomba en el jardín de la casa de su abuela—, pasando por los años vividos como niño de la guerra, que de forma tan terrible impactaron en su aprendizaje del mundo, el premio Nobel de Literatura dibuja una página imprescindible de su geografía emocional que habla de la pertenencia y su lugar en la memoria.

¿Es posible ser feliz? Sí, pero con dos condiciones fundamentales: una actitud positiva, que es necesaria pero no suficiente, y actuar en consecuencia. La vida feliz no se da tan sólo con desearla intensamente; hay que construirla. La casi totalidad de la literatura respecto del éxito o la felicidad enfatiza y se limita a señalar la actitud, equivalente a querer, pero deja a un lado el actuar; que es decidirse y comprometerse. No se trata solamente de asumir una actitud, sino que se requiere de voluntad para abordar los problemas con valentía y decisión.

Beneath us as civilised beings. But however we cloak our animal instincts the need to remove a human being and gain relief from abuse or gain from money, the term is just the same – MURDER. Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Conan Doyle, J M Barrie, W W Jacobs and many others bring their literary heft to bear in as calculating a way as any killer could.
