Críticas
"Chitra Divakaruni understands the power of stories to heal us, make us laugh, and comfort us in the most difficult of circumstances. One Amazing Thing is one powerful and beautifully written book. I loved it, and I'm sure that readers everywhere will embrace it too."--Lisa See, author of Shanghai Girls
"An incredible and highly original premise in the hands of a gifted storyteller has resulted in this jewel of a story. It is, to paraphrase the book's title, an amazing thing."--Abraham Verghese, author of Cutting for Stone
"One Amazing Thing collapses the walls dividing characters and cultures; what endures is a chorus of voices in one single room."--Jhumpa Lahiri, author of Interpreter of Maladies and The Namesake
"Ingeniously conceived and intelligently written, this novel is a fable for our time. The characters, troubled or shattered by their past, vibrate with life whenever they begin to speak. The book is a fun read from the first page to the last."--Ha Jin, author of A Free Life and the National Book Award-winning Waiting
"Divakaruni is a brilliant storyteller; she illuminates the world with her artistry; and shakes the reader with her love."--Junot Diaz
"Early on I realized that Chitra was throwing a plot at me! An irresistible plot where a mini-UN of interesting people get trapped by a disaster and each must come up with a story. Oh no! Oh yes! I was up very late. I read straight through because this is the sort of book that pulls you along. Divakaruni is so adept with her characterizations. She has a light touch with people. She is a careful, evocative writer. I wanted to be any of the several beauty salons described so lovingly. I wanted to eat the bits of food described with such delicacy. Chitra Divakaruni has written 14 books and they just keep getting better. I think I enjoyed this one the most. ... I still admire this line from One Amazing Thing, She ignored Uma superbly, as people do when faced with those those abject destinies they control.' Haven't we all been ignored superbly? How I hate it when my abject destiny is controlled by others."--Louise Erdrich, author of The Plague of Doves
