The same compass, by David Olivas

What unites two brothers who have shared a bed since the origin of their primary cells, from that electrical spark that shoots life from an unknown space, becomes the leitmotif of this novel The same compass.

Twins always wear it naturally. But we, the others, always observe them from time to time with that point of strangeness, as if we could not understand a full and independent existence of two people built as replicas from the second 0.

Adolfo and Eduardo are two of those twins who serve the author to concentrate a cosmos of characters who share the search for love despite everything. The knot of this story overflows with humanity. The humanity of simple things, with the complex edges that humans endow them with.

Despite the fascinating simplicity of the story, which seems to rock you on each page, its abundant dialogues and the intensive characterization of the characters make the story flow fast, intense, with moments where an intense life about love rests and is visualized, about life and about fears.

Characters that move in that impossible balance of what is expected in life and what ultimately happens. The planned and the improvisation of the emotions that insist on rewriting the script, the blog and the perspective of the world.

A suggestive story that grabs you and teaches you to love characters with whom empathy becomes immediate thanks to well-known contradictions and hopes, the same ones that move us all along the indecipherable path that we still have to walk.

Own Maximum Huerta anticipates on the cover of the book: "This novel is a movie." Well that's it, stockpile some popcorn and get ready for small-big intense emotions.
