I chose 50 people whose experiences I lived through, whether through the interviews I conducted or the long dialogues through the “Bassat Qalam” program that I presented on Sama Dubai Channel, or through their books that I read and were influenced by. I presented to you a summary of what I read of their ideas and philosophy, and before you sail with me, I want to say that There are other strong personalities, without a doubt, and many that I did not write about, and they deserve to be written about, but I chose these personalities because I lived through their experience closely, and they were 50 Emirati personalities that I present to my dear country (the UAE is in its fiftieth year).
I decided here to write about my weakness, my strength, my surrender, my fear, my courage, my will, and life. I decided to challenge myself, between those letters, to write about my experiences, my failure, my mistakes, to ask myself a lot about all of that, about every reason that destroys me, and about every reason that makes me stronger. .
Here in this book you will find me advising myself one day, surrendering another day, accepting and satisfied, and angry and dissatisfied with everything at other times.
You will find among all of this a question that I researched in my experiences in order to answer it. I do not have the answer to it because your experience is different from my experience. Read my answer and search for your answer.
I write here because I care about me, I write here because I care about you.
When you decide to surrender, you must also decide not to, and when you decide not to, you must face some weakness until you find the strength within you.
I hope you find what you are looking for here, and I find what I want from writing.
A special kind of anxiety grips Martin Santome after he approaches retirement age. He sees that his life has passed without him achieving anything worth mentioning. However, something changes after hiring the young woman, Abeyanda, in the office where he works, as he suddenly experiences feelings of happiness. After his life had deprived him of her for many years, since the death of his wife and his having to raise his children alone.
Through Santome's diaries over the course of an entire year, Benedetti depicts for us the life of the middle class in Uruguay, expressing with great sensitivity the loneliness and lack of communication, love, happiness, and death, in a poetic narrative that qualifies this novel to be one of the most beautiful and powerful love novels. And elegance in Latin American literature.
