About this listen
Jon, cuidador de elefantes en el zoo, y Edith, viuda que vive con sus once gatos, son los únicos habitantes de una aldea abandonada. Vecinos solitarios primero y ahora buenos amigos, no imaginan que la noche en que la veleta del viejo campanario gira sobre sí misma, el ojo del tiempo se posa sobre la aldea y la vida de ambos está a punto de girar con ella.
La llegada de la primavera trae consigo una inesperada decisión por parte de la dirección del zoo, a la que se suma un perturbador anuncio: el Ayuntamiento al que pertenece la aldea restaurará la casona en ruinas del lago para convertirla en hotel rural. La doble noticia cambiará de golpe las vidas de Jon y Edith, empujándolos a dar un paso hasta entonces tímidamente contemplado.
La amistad entre Jon y una callada elefanta llamada Susi, la relación entre Edith y su hija Violeta, desencontradas durante décadas, y una hora de la noche -"la hora trémula"- en la que pasa todo y todo queda conforman Un país con tu nombre: una historia sobre el amor en mayúsculas, la honestidad con los propios sueños y sobre la libertad llevada a su expresión más pura.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 15
Este es el audiolibro más luminoso, impactante y real que alguien puede escribir. Tras una niñez marcada por los abusos sexuales, años de eterno acoso escolar y una hipersensibilidad que en no pocas ocasiones lo llevó al borde del suicidio, Alejandro Palomas hila en estas páginas un relato sereno y electrizante con el que sobrevuela sin filtro los recuerdos de infancia, la relación sin igual con su madre, la sombra de un padre finalmente desaparecido y el poder de la imaginación y de la escritura como la última tabla de salvación.

Life in the big city just wasn't her jam and now she's back in Hickory Falls, working at the family diner and helping her mom after she took a tumble. Lesley longs to build a life here, working at the cafe, selling her handmade ornaments and ... er, apparently reviving her high school crush on her best friend’s older brother. Only one problem, her mom wants her to leave Hickory Falls far behind.

Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.
