Pour la plupart d'entre nous, le souvenir qui restera de nous sera celui d'une personne charmante, qui laisse un grand vide dans le cœur de ses proches.

One moment can change everything — but it doesn’t have to end the story. In If You Have Five Minutes to Spare , Dominic Hurley BEM shares an honest, often funny, and deeply human memoir of life after a traumatic brain injury. After a life-altering accident at just twenty-one, Dominic was forced to rethink everything he thought he knew about normality, disability, memory, and identity. This is not a polished tale of instant triumph. It’s a real story of recovery — told with humour, frustration, warmth, and unfiltered truth.

C’est l’histoire d’une petite fille trop sensible nommée Mariana, mais aussi un touchant hommage à l’univers qui l’a définie : le quartier où elle a vécu, les familles immigrantes qu’elle a côtoyées, les enseignants qui l’ont inspirée, et aussi les lieux enchanteurs (pour une enfant) qu’elle a fréquentés, tels le Club argentin, le cinéma Langelier et le marché aux puces Cinq étoiles. Fille d’immigrante, Mariana Mazza brosse un portrait de son enfance dans le Montréal-Nord des années 1990 à la fois sombre et lumineux, chaotique et chaleureux. Sa mère s’en mêlera, comme d’habitude.

Dieses Hörbuch ist eine humorvolle, schonungslose Abrechnung mit den Versprechungen der Self-Help-Industrie. Wir greifen nur zu gern zu den Hörbüchern, die uns alles erklären: Egal, ob Depression oder Herzprobleme, ob eine Karriere oder Selbstvertrauen aufgebaut werden sollen, Kindheitstraumata überwunden oder Familienkatastrophen gemanagt werden müssen – die Lösung aller Probleme schenit nur einen Handgriff entfernt zu sein.
