Synopsis:
We can not always control what is within us. Noel
Villalta seems to have everything: love, money, social position, friends ... Still feels that something is wrong, that his life is incomplete. Fails to find himself. Tired of how your life passes, carries out senseless acts in which even life-threatening.
a result of one of them, Noel has a motorcycle accident and loses his hand right up to the forearm.
not happy with the solution that gives physicians, becomes obsessed with the idea of \u200b\u200ba transplant and - ignoring the advice of experts - put in place all the means available in order to become who he was. But from that moment nothing will ever be the same. The terrible shadow of suspicion will take over his mind and his actions, and find that it is Noel who thought he was.
Personal opinion:
The other is a novel that captures from the start, with a smooth narrative, simple, uncomplicated. I think it's an excellent novel, you do not want to leave know what will happen at the end. A book of those who read at a stretch and then research the issues raised. What I like about the other characters are, because they are well delineated, they are not flat, are not predictable. Are almost, almost, of flesh and bone. I sincerely recommend reading. If I were to criticize some would say that the final scene is not up to the rest of the novel, but not bad.
I give it 5 out of 5 stars.
The other contains elements of the profession of Clara Tahoces who is an expert in graphology and editor of the English magazine Beyond science.
The novel is told from a third party, but quite Pegaditas Noel's thoughts Villalta, our main character, gets to the point that when the lens moves to the psychologist who will help at some point in the narrative, I was surprised. Maybe not stand not knowing what he was doing Noel at the time.
The title piqued my interest immediately figured it would be a personality change, and successful, but never imagined that a change could be motivated by something as spiritual. material ..?, organic? as an organ transplant.
is true that it is not any transplant, it is nothing more and nothing less than a hand transplant. Our livers or our kidneys do not have the emotional burden with our hands. A few people have touched, and comforted with our hands?
continue for 300 pages about the history of Noel, who whimsical, rich, and accustomed to getting everything he wants, wants his life getting the hand of a deceased person and not a bionic transplants as their doctors recommend it.
Here we might draw a parallel with Clin Hallam, who was the first man to receive a hand transplant. And who then asked to be withdrawn because they felt separated from her mentally ¨ ¨. In this link you can see a picture of him, I notice that it is not pleasant. Link
spoilers are coming, do not read further if you want to know plot details
After the transplant occurs Noel begins to have recurring dreams related murders of people whom he knows. And eventually begins to realize that there are only dreams ... With the help of a psychologist will begin to unravel the skein of what is happening, everything is related to the previous owner of the transplanted hand. With feelings, ideas, intentions of its owner. Then he raises a new question, a court may save some of the spiritual energy of its owner? Such a body that has accompanied it during the times when that person has cried, was glad, he dreamed, is, as it somehow permeated his soul? (Replace the word soul to find the most appropriate to their beliefs)
This is the issue that lies behind the psychological adventure Noel V. Cellular memory and energy L. Cellular memory is a theory that all our life experiences are imbued in our cells. A summary see if I explain as I understand. It is in a natural life cycle, when our organs stop functioning, and natural death occurs, our soul, or spiritual energy is apparent from the case it was our body and joins the rest of the universe. For some transplants, when the body is separated from the rest of the body, the person is brain dead, and kept breathing and his heart beating through artificial devices and failure to do so, blood flow decreases and the organs damaged. So, in this case does not occur that break the body-mind-soul that occurs in a natural death. And the loose body could carry with it some of the spiritual burden of the person. Amazing right?
There are some cases in real life. For example, the story of Claire Sylvia , American dancer who received a heart and lungs from a donor who said male and extraordinary changes in their eating habits, even in their feelings toward men and women. Who then claimed to know the name of her donor because somehow he himself had said, and struck, and this information is classified and not having had prior access. The book Dance of Hearts, her experience.
for the child or Carter, who claimed to feel the presence of another child, somehow, with him, and acknowledged the father of the donor in a crowd, when never before had seen him and greeted him by rubbing his nose against him, as did the donor.
The truth is that these cases have been few, science can not explain and cell memory is still under study. Donate organs remains a gesture of solidarity and receive makes a difference in many cases between life and death.
The spiritual aspects of organ transplantation remains a mystery ..... Draw your own conclusions.
We read!
