![]() Actualmente no hay Conversaciones sobre este libro. ![]() ![]() These books are pure and simple joy. It's lines like this that keep me coming back for more: "Mma Ramotswe nodded vaguely. She was not particularly interested in the affairs of the Botswana Secretarial College, although she always listened politely when Mma Makutsi sounded off about such matters. Most people had something in their lives that was particularly important to them, and she supposed that the Botswana Secretarial College was as good a cause as any. What was it in her own case, she wondered? Tea? Surely she had something more important than that; but what? She looked at Mma Makutsi, as if for inspiration, but none came, and she decided to return to the subject later, in an idle moment, when one had time for this sort of unsettling philosophical speculation." Those lines, and the clear, honest portraits of the people, both the recurring characters and the individuals involved in each new mystery. While McCall Smith has an easy if wordy writing style, his generalizations about gender relations in Botswana grate after a while. Not a lot happens in this installment of a The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency as Mma Ramotswe only has one case so we hear a lot about the usual things: the stupidity of the apprentices; Mma Matkusa's 97%; and what a good man Mr Maketone is. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Alexander McCall vuelve a llevarnos al corazón de Botswana, un lugar donde el concepto del tiempo, del dinero y de la vida misma es muy distinto al de Occidente. Allí nos espera, preparando el té, uno de los personajes más encantadores e interesantes de la literatura actual. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
