Ese Tiempo Que Tuvimos Por Corazón

« Viste cuando algo es demasiado? Demasiado bueno, demasiado intenso, demasiado extremadamente nico. Bueno, as me doli . As es la escritura de Marie Gouiric . -- Mariano Blatt

Una maestra llega a la escuelita y varias vidas cambian. La de esa decena de chicos siempre con ganas de galletitas y gaseosa, que van del garabato a la letra, de los botones de colores a las cuentas matem ticas, de los piedrazos a la poes a. La de Dylan, que un d a se asoma desafi ante desde el techo. Y la de ella misma, que apenas recibida ha migrado desde un pueblo del interior y completa su salario como moza.

De lejos, la Ciudad parece un castillo. De cerca, es una fortaleza inexpugnable. En ese ida y vuelta, clase a clase la Se o va transform ndose. Los chicos crecen, las adolescentes se convierten en madres y Dylan, que rescat a un cachorro de morir ahogado y dio de comer en el pico a un pichoncito, busca sosiego a su profundo dolor de ni o que ha ca do de su propio nido.

Con humor, ternura y una prosa delicad sima, Marie Gouiric se pregunta qui n aprende y qui n ense a una vez que alguien se entrega de coraz n a los dem s.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A new teacher arrives and lives at the school are changed: the dozen or so kids clamoring for cookies and soda, who advance from scribbling to cursive, from playing with beads to doing sums, and from throwing spitballs to writing poetry; Dylan, who climbs up angrily to the roof one day; and the teacher herself, newly arrived from a small provincial town and trying to supplement her wages as a waitress.

From afar, the City looks like a castle. Up close, it's an impregnable fortress. As the days go by, as class follows class, the teacher's life slowly transforms. The children grow up; the teenagers mature and become parents themselves; and Dylan, who once saved a puppy from drowning and nursed an orphaned baby bird back to health, searches for solace after falling from his own nest.

With humor, tenderness, and the utmost delicacy, Marie Gouiric asks who is the teacher and who the student when a person dedicates themselves selflessly to others.
