El El teorema Katherine /An Abundance of Katherines by John Green

El El teorema Katherine /An Abundance of Katherines by John Green

Según Colin Singleton existen dos tipos de personas: los que dejan y los que son dejados.

Él, sin duda, pertenece al segundo. Su última ex, Katherine XIX, no es una reina, sino la Katherine número diecinueve, que le ha roto el corazón. Para escapar de su mal de amores, y con el propósito de hallar un teorema que explique la maldición de las Katherines, Colin emprende junto a su amigo Hassan una aventura que le llevará a Gutshot, un pueblecito de Tennessee, y a la sospecha de que en la vida la inteligencia no siempre es la mejor compañera de viaje.

John Green, el autor de Bajo la misma estrella, nos regala una historia tocada por la emoción de un road trip, en una trama que combina de forma magistral golpes de humor, brillantes reflexiones sobre el amor y diálogos cargados de vida.

When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton's type is girls named Katherine. And when it comes to girls named Katherine, Colin is always getting dumped. Nineteen times, to be exact. On a road trip miles from home, this anagram-happy, washed-up child prodigy has ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a bloodthirsty feral hog on his trail, and an overweight, Judge Judy-loving best friend riding shotgun--but no Katherines. Colin is on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which he hopes will predict the future of any relationship, avenge Dumpees everywhere, and finally win him the girl. Love, friendship, and a dead Austro-Hungarian archduke add up to surprising and heart-changing conclusions in this ingeniously layered comic novel about reinventing oneself.
