casa del almendro Audiobook Summary

Si pierdes todo lo que amas, ?como sobrevivir y empezar de nuevo? La casa del almendro cuenta la historia de una familia de refugiados que escapa del conflicto y la guerra en Afganistan en la decada de 1990, e inicia un largo viaje en busca de libertad y seguridad. “”La emotiva novela de Laura McVeigh nos cuenta la historia de Afganistan despues de la invasion sovietica a traves de las experiencias de una familia y de los ojos de una chica joven. McVeigh hace un tributo a la resiliencia de las mujeres afganas a traves de la descripcion de los horrores que tienen que sobrellevar y la fuerza que encuentran para sobrevivir””. Deeyah Kahn, directora de cine, activista y embajadora de buena voluntad de la ONU para la libertad artistica y creativa. Samar, de quince anos, la hija mediana, comparte la historia de su increible viaje en el Expreso Trans-Siberiano, con la ayuda de Napoleon, el revisor, la Anna Karenina de Tolstoi, y sus padres y hermanos. Obligados a salir de Kabul cuando los rusos, y luego los talibanes, ponen su vida del reves, los ninos y sus padres se enfrentan a la perdida de todo su mundo y de su lugar en el. A lo largo de toda la historia, nuestra narradora, Samar, se aferra con valentia a su familia y a la esperanza, aunque muchas veces cualquier tipo de supervivencia parezca imposible. Con la verdadera fortaleza que nace del amor, el conocimiento y la imaginacion, Samar revela su extraordinaria capacidad de resistencia y el descubrimiento de que todo es posible, siempre que puedas aferrarte a la esperanza y al amor. “”Hay viajes que nos gustaria no tener que emprender jamas. Aun asi tenemos que partir. Nos vamos porque no tenemos mas remedio. Porque es el unico modo de sobrevivir. Este es mi viaje, el que nunca quise hacer. Pero tuve que hacerlo. Algunas cosas sobrevivieron. Algunas no. Pero nunca podremos olvidarlas.
