Review
"In the process of revealing the human being behind the artist, Ricky Martin offers us a testimonyof exemplary honesty and greatness of soul. While I was reading, I remembered a verse from the Persian poet Hafez, ‘Not even seven thousand years of joy can justify seven years of repression.’"
—Paulo Coelho
"Ricky Martin has written an extraordinary memoir, the story of a tortured soul who healedhimself by returning to the state of innocence and authenticity. His story will speak to you,because it is, in a sense, the story of humanity—of the sacred and the profane, of forbidden lust and unconditional love. It takes courage to be so ruthlessly honest and transparent, but it is only this kind of courage and this kind of love that can heal the world. Bravo!"—Deepak Chopra, M.D.
Review
"En el proceso de revelar al ser humano detrás del artista, Ricky Martin nos ofrece un testimonio ejemplar de honestidad y grandeza de alma. Mientras leía me acordé de un verso del poeta persa Hafez, ‘Ni siquiera siete mil años de alegría pueden justificar siete días de represión"
—Paulo Coelho
"Ricky Martin ha escrito un libro de memorias extraordinario, la historia de un alma torturada que se sanó regresando a un estado de inocencia y autenticidad. Su historia te tocará porque de cierta forma es la historia de la humanidad: la historia de lo sagrado y lo profano, de lujuria prohibida y amor incondicional. Hay que ser valiente para ser tan genuinamente honesto y transparente pero sólo este tipo de valentía y de amor pueden sanar el mundo. ¡Bravo!"—Deepak Chopra, M.D.
