Miau - Benito Pérez Galdós

Ésta es una novela escrita en un tono divertido (desde el mismo título), y retrata la vida en Madrid sobre 1876. Repasa especialmente la complicada administración de la época con su escalafón de oficiales y jefes (con el cesante Ramón Villaamil de protagonista). Me ha llamado la atención el amplio vocabulario y las expresiones. Algunas que creía más o menos recientes en el idioma resulta que ya se usaban entonces (como quedarse con alguien, por tomarle el pelo).

The Next Three Days - Paul Haggis (2010)

Haggis is here the screenwriter also and the movie is a thriller about an "amour fou", because no less than a crazy love is required to make a school teacher be determined to "rescue" his wife from the county prison. The suspicion about she being guilty or innocent remains till the end. Not as good as his master work "Crash", the story is enjoyable.

Last Night In Twisted River - John Irving

Storytelling this is. Not that I would believe every word, but in the whole the book completes a kind of circle. It's John Irving's reversal life, the things he wouldn't like to happen to him (my fears define me). The main character is named Daniel Baciagalupo and he is a writer who writes all the time about his life, not being supposedly his real life. Well, just as most writers do.
