Ganadora del premio Nobel de Literatura 2024 «La clase de griego es impresionante. En humanidad, en lenguaje, en las formas del dolor y el silencio dentro y alrededor de nosotros. Han Kang siempre es una de las escritoras más lúcidas: ensancha el cielo de los sentimientos». Max Porter En Seúl, una mujer asiste a clases de griego antiguo. Su profesor le pide que lea en voz alta, pero ella permanece en silencio; ha perdido la capacidad del lenguaje, así como a su madre y la custodia de un hijo de ocho años. El profesor, que acaba de regresar a Corea después de pasar media vida en Alemania, también afronta pérdidas: su vista empeora irreversiblemente a cada día que pasa, y convive con el miedo de saber que, cuando llegue la ceguera total, perderá toda autonomía. Con una belleza inusitada, las voces íntimas de estos dos protagonistas se intercalan y se cruzan en un momento de desesperación. ¿Será posible que encuentren en el otro el modo de salvarse, que la oscuridad dé paso a la luz y el silencio a la palabra? La aclamada autora de La vegetariana indaga en la pérdida, la violencia y la frágil relación de nuestros sentidos con el mundo para brindarnos una carta de amor a la filosofía, la literatura y el lenguaje, pero, sobre todo, a la esencia de la conexión humana y de lo que significa sentirse vivo. ENGLISH DESCRPTION Winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature. NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS' CHOICE - A dazzling novel about the saving grace of language and human connection, from the "visionary" (New York Times Book Review) author of the International Booker Prize Winner The Vegetarian"Both a disquieting journey about the loss of sense and a return to the sensorium of touch and intimacy, Greek Lessons soars with sensuous and revelatory insight."--Cathy Park Hong, author of Minor Feelings
ONE OF TIME'S BEST BOOKS OF 2023 (SO FAR) "Now and then, language would thrust its way into her sleep like a skewer through meat, startling her awake several times a night." In a classroom in Seoul, a young woman watches her Greek language teacher at the blackboard. She tries to speak but has lost her voice. Her teacher finds himself drawn to the silent woman, for day by day he is losing his sight. Soon the two discover a deeper pain binds them together. For her, in the space of just a few months, she has lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages, and the fear of losing his independence. Greek Lessons tells the story of two ordinary people brought together at a moment of private anguish--the fading light of a man losing his vision meeting the silence of a woman who has lost her language. Yet these are the very things that draw them to each other. Slowly the two discover a profound sense of unity--their voices intersecting with startling beauty, as they move from darkness to light, from silence to breath and expression. Greek Lessons is the story of the unlikely bond between this pair and a tender love letter to human intimacy and connection--a novel to awaken the senses, one that vividly conjures the essence of what it means to be alive.

Just fine if you have simple needs...
Color: Black/Digital/Black/Green
Exactly what I needed: a cheap, durable wrist watch. The only thing it was lacking were instructions, but about 5 minutes of messing with the buttons got it set up

Really nice and unique watch
Color: Black/Black/Black
This watch really caught my eye on Amazon. Every once in awhile you order an item and it looks better in person than it does in a picture. This is one of those items. It looks really great in person! I collect mostly unique watches that look different than a normal watch. What is really unique about this watch is that it has 2 separate second hands. One that is always ticking for the time and another one that starts going with the Chronograph. Not sure I've ever seen that on another watch. Sure I've seen subdials that do this, but this is 2 full size second hands. And they look different also so they don't get confused. I've never seen this one in a store which is a shame because I think Timex has some great watches right now and I don't think a lot of people know about them.

nice but.
So, this really is a nice watch and if you can get it on sale it's a bargain. The bracelet is junk, with hollow end links. I would recommend replacing that with some type of fabric or rubber type strap. The reason I took one star off is because the chrono function isn't the best style. If you don't plan to use it much or only plan to use it for 10 minutes or less that's fine. More than that and the minutes counter flies back to zero and starts counting again which can be confusing and the next register is the combo 24hr and chrono minutes/hours counter which isn't easy to use for timing say 30 minutes or so. The standard type chrono counters are way better by design and Timex sells another one with standard counters with neat multicolored registers for less money.
Otherwise it's a solid watch comfortable to wear not too big or thick or heavy. Of course it has mineral glass for the xtl so you need to be careful or it will scratch pretty easily but for the price.....
