Una obra inspiradora y emotiva, que nos hace reflexionar sobre el papel decisivo que jugamos en nuestra manera de afrontar la vida. A través de las vidas de seis neoyorquinos mayores de 85 años, el premiado periodista John Leland ofrece una visión transformadora de lo que implica envejecer y una inspiradora guía de bienestar. La práctica de la gratitud, la capacidad de asombrarse ante los pequeños milagros diarios y la habilidad de adaptarse a las circunstancias son algunas de las valiosas lecciones que nos ofrece esta obra. En 2015, el periódico The New York Times encargó a John Leland una serie de reportajes sobre los «mayores longevos», un grupo de edad que crece rápidamente. Su convivencia a lo largo de un año con seis generosos ancianos, tres hombres y tres mujeres, no solo desafió sus prejuicios sobre la vejez, el deterioro del cuerpo y la calidad de vida a una edad avanzada, sino que le reveló una cara inesperadamente rica y amable de las últimas etapas de la existencia: fuera cual fuese su problemática, los mayores derrochaban optimismo y satisfacción. Fruto de aquella experiencia nace esta obra, una reflexión impecable sobre cómo vivir con resiliencia y alegría, inspirada por la sabiduría de los grandes expertos en el arte de la vida. Uno de los libros más aplaudidos de 2018, que enfatiza la extraordinaria influencia que poseemos sobre nuestra felicidad
a cualquier edad.
