"Reflexiones sobre la ilusión, la supervivencia y el milagro de estar vivos Y, en la oscuridad, incluso los fragmentos de luz más minúsculos pueden brillar, llamar nuestra atención y tal vez hasta guiardnos a casa..."--Page [4] of cover

Una mezcla entre El curioso incidente del perro a medianoche y El hombre que cayó a la tierra, esta obra es divertida, enternecedora y escrita de manera seductora. El profesor Andrew Martin, un genio matemático de la Universidad de Cambridge, ha descubierto el secreto de los números primos, lo que podría responder a los misterios del universo y poner fin a la enfermedad y la muerte. Alarmados por esta revelación, los vonadorianos, una civilización más avanzada, envían a un emisario para eliminar a Martin y su descubrimiento. Este vonadoriano, que toma la apariencia de Martin pero se encuentra completamente desnudo, aparece en una carretera y comienza a explorar el campus universitario, sin comprender su entorno. Su misión es asesinar a la esposa, al hijo y al mejor amigo del profesor, pero se siente cautivado por la extraña especie humana, sus costumbres incomprensibles, su búsqueda de conexión y afecto, así como sus secretos y emociones. En esta novela hilarante, el autor se convierte en un observador externo que juzga el comportamiento humano con la frialdad de alguien ajeno a sus matices. Sin embargo, lo que el extraterrestre no sabe es que ser humano es contagioso…

¿Qué significa sentirse realmente vivo? A los veinticuatro años, el mundo de Matt Haig se derrumbó. No encontraba razones para seguir viviendo. Ésta es la historia real de cómo superó su depresión, triunfó sobre la enfermedad y aprendió a vivir otra vez gracias a los libros y la escritura. Según el propio autor: «Escribí este libro porque los viejos clichés son los más reales. En el fondo del pozo todo se ve negro. Hay luz al final del túnel, aunque no la veamos… Y las palabras, a veces, pueden realmente liberarte». Inteligente, original, honesto y humano. «Matt Haig es asombroso», Stephen Fry. «Magnífico», The Huffington Post. «Un escritor de gran talento», The New York Times. «Fascinante y bellamente escrito», Ian Rankin. «Aunque Razones para seguir viviendo sea un libro sobre salud mental y creamos que será una lectura deprimente, la verdad es que su ironía te deja una sensación optimista al final de la lectura. Matt Haig, con toda su dolorosa honestidad, puede haber escrito el libro de 2015», Lisa Talks About. «Una obra de arte que nos da esperanza», Harrogate Advertiser Series.

En algún lugar más allá del borde del universo hay una biblioteca que contiene un número infinito de libros, cada uno narrando la historia de otra realidad. Uno cuenta la historia de tu vida tal como es, junto con otro libro que narra la vida que podrías haber vivido si hubieras tomado una decisión diferente en algún momento. Mientras todos nos preguntamos cómo podrían haber sido nuestras vidas, ¿y si tuvieras la oportunidad de ir a la biblioteca y verlo por ti mismo? ¿Serían realmente mejores estas otras vidas? En "La Biblioteca de la Medianoche", Nora Seed se enfrenta a esta decisión. Ante la posibilidad de cambiar su vida por una nueva, siguiendo una carrera diferente, deshaciendo antiguas rupturas y realizando su sueño de convertirse en glacióloga, debe buscar dentro de sí misma mientras viaja a través de la Biblioteca de la Medianoche para decidir qué es verdaderamente satisfactorio en la vida y qué la hace digna de ser vivida.
