Best book I've read in a long long time. William is a gem - honest, trusting, and smarter than most people think. He makes his way in the world bravely and with purpose. And Billy, he's a heartbreaker - literally William's guardian angel. Although the book has a long list of characters we get to know them well as their voices flow seamlessly through the story. There's much to love here. ( )sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
1978: Fourteen-year-old Billy Baker is the first into the pond that early summer day. Ten minutes later, his lifeless body is pulled from the chilly water, his lips like two slivers of blue ice. Billy Baker dies... but only for a little while. Thirty-nine days later, he emerges from a coma. But he is not alone. 1994: Billy (AKA William) is turning thirty. He forgets some letters in the alphabet. He can't set a table properly. He still believes it's the disco era. And he can't remember that day at the pond. But the young boy William used to be has never left his side. A brain-damaged hero. An unrequited love. A lottery windfall. A jealous brother. A terrifying memory hidden just below the surfaceâ?¦ Sharp contrasts of sunshiny music and life's dark periphery are delicately mingled in this extraordinary tale, putting a new twist on the age-old question: Is it possible to find the way home again when one's memory is nothing more than a blank slate?
