LA Times columnist comes upon a homeless man playing exquisite violin on a street corner. This is the story of how he helps and befriends the special person. I really liked how Mr. Lopez shared his own life struggles with career and family along with his relationship with Nathaniel Ayers. It made this a deeper, more complex relationship study. This isn't a simple feel good story, where Ayers walks away a different man. The ups and downs of Nathaniel's schizophrenia was enlightening and heartbreaking. Good book that I listened to on a borrowed library audio copy during a trip to SC. LA Journalist befriends a homeless man who turns out to have had a breakdown when he was a Julliard and now lives near Disney Hall and a Bethoven statue. The columnist eventually understands that the life he envisions for Nathaniel is not the life that Nathaniel wants or is capable of having. Cuando Steve Lopez, columnista de Los Angeles Times, escucha a Nathaniel Ayers tocar el violin en un lugubre tunel, se dice a si mismo que ese hombre tiene un don y se compromete a ayudarle. Empieza a investigar sobre su vida y muy pronto descubre que Nathaniel tuvo que abandonar la Juilliard School de Nueva York, uno de los conservatorios mas prestigiosos del mundo, por culpa de su esquizofrenia. La primera meta que se pone Steve es sacarlo de la calle y devolverle la confianza en si mismo. Entre ambos se ira forjando una solida y autentica amistad. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
