Barbara Bleisch, filósofa y divulgadora suiza, presenta un ensayo fascinante sobre la plenitud y las dudas de la mediana edad, ese momento en el que ya no somos quienes fuimos, pero aún estamos a tiempo de decidir quienes queremos ser.Hay un momento en la vida en el que todo parece estar decidido: a quien amamos, donde trabajamos, como vivimos. Algunos sienten que por fin han encontrado su lugar; otros temen haberse quedado atrapados en una rutina que ya no les inspira y se preguntan si esto es todo lo que la vida tiene por ofrecer.¿Como encontrar nuevos horizontes cuando ya se ha alcanzado tanto? ¿Como asumir que ha pasado el tiempo y que algunos trenes ya han pasado?Con una mirada filosofica y al mismo tiempo profundamente humana, Barbara Bleisch reflexiona sobre las experiencias y como tomarse la vida con ligereza y serenidad. Frente al cliche de la crisis de la mediana edad, propone una exploracion lucida y vital de las preguntas que nos acompañan en los años mas intensos de nuestra existencia.
