Como dice el gran dicho: Si es chileno... ~~¡es bueno!~~ ¡es malo!

Es broma. Pero no ne gustó, la historia no se toma en serio a sí misma. Por ejemplo, nada le hubiera costado a Juan dejar que cualquier incrédulo tocase su uniforme y así convencerlo de inmediato.

Epic story with slaves, deception, sadness, slaves, rage, murder, slave killing, revenge, joy. Also, Odysseus cheats on her wife Penelope and no one gives a damn. And Penelope does the opposite.

"Dad, I want to be a tyrant, and rule over all men!". Those were the good old days when the youth had ambition and vigour. Nowadays, they just want to be YouTubers and to have likes. Sigh...

Don't read this book without having read "Cyclops" first. That's my recommendation.

(By the way, this book says that the cyclops masturbates)

3.8 stars. Worth reading for the interesting knowledge about nature, plants, animals, and the space above. The book is a collection of articles, each one written by a different expert, and one of them is Charles Darwin. Some articles are easier to understand than others.

But what do they mean by Young Folks'? This book would be difficult for teenagers, in my opinion.
