An actual thriller. Loved it and cried. ( ) I always think of this novel whenever I watch Casablanca. If you've seen it, you might notice a few similarities in their plots, with the striking part being the redeeming sacrifices in their endings, done on account of love. When Rick Blaine lets Isla Lund go off with Victor Laszlo, both proponents of a problematic love triangle, I see Sydney Carton being led to the guillotine to die instead of Charles Darnay, both of whom are in love with Lucy Manette. In both cases, you could easily argue that the former loves more than the latter, and that's why that one has to be the one to die for it, because it's the only way to save the girl. "Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own", as Heinlein put it in Stranger in a Strange Land, but I would go so far as to say that love is putting another's happiness above your own, in effect, eradicating your own happiness if necessary. Would a parent do any less for her or his child? Sure, it's unfair, but love often happens that way. clásico literario que entrelaza las realidades de Londres y París durante la Revolución Francesa. Dickens presenta un panorama de personajes cuyas vidas se ven afectadas por los turbulentos eventos de la época. Con una prosa cautivadora, el autor ofrece una profunda exploración de la condición humana, la injusticia social y el sacrificio. La narrativa envolvente y los giros inesperados mantienen al lector intrigado hasta la última página, convirtiendo esta obra en un tesoro perdurable de la literatura universal.
