Diego De Silva in “Couples therapy for lovers”.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>At first sight you may think that you know what you are going to read: it will be a coward love that \u00a0lives in the shadow of life, that it doesn’t want to take any responsibility. The story talk about two lovers. The story of \u00a0Viviana and Modesto. So we have already had an idea. But De Silva, after few pages – which he already gives proof of his hilarious and ironic writing – strikes us with a sour statement: “if the marriage immunizes from contagion with squalid relations (those clandestine precisely), if giving access to the poetry of the couple official with sharing good times, for which reason there is so much incomprehensible people in the world that regularly betrays this place of happiness? “.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>More than a question, he dropped a bomb.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Personally I believe that l<\/span>oyalty is to the emotional life what consistency is to the intellectual life<\/span><\/i>. And in life we may sometimes be inconsistent. Here I have deliberately shortened the Oscar Wilde aphorism and not because I want to change the meaning but over time I realized that I don\u2019t like “the words made to judge people” and their work.\u00a0<\/span>As the word <\/span>failure<\/span><\/i> for instance (check to see how goes on the aphorism).<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\n<\/span>Perhaps in this novel it\u2019s not such as crucial the betrayals as the complications of love. The weight of the choices that change your life, even if it comes to an unhappy life; trying to figure out if it’s love or just attraction, the deal with their own guilt losing sight of the fact that in life you cannot go wrong and you can also deal with them; the suffering that comes sooner or later and that therefore there\u2019s more honor in a painful choice made in the light of the sun rather than in underground actions that only apparently don\u2019t hurt anyone.<\/span>
\n<\/span>A relationship is an hard daily work. Viviana knows. Modesto a little less. Under the pretext of a couples therapy the protagonists will try to reach to “get to the point” without realizing that the faithful son, the friend of life and the hateful father (most of the therapist) will lead them where they want to get.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Probably, after read it, you\u2019ll listen to Every Breath You Take by The Police in a different manner.<\/span><\/p>\n
