EL LIBRO MÁS ESPERADO DEL AÑO


Las memorias en primera persona de Su Majestad el Rey Don Juan Carlos.


«Mi padre siempre me aconsejó que no escribiera mis memorias. Los reyes no se confiesan. Y menos, públicamente. Sus secretos permanecen sepultados en la penumbra de los palacios. ¿Por qué le desobedezco hoy? ¿Por qué he cambiado de opinión? Porque siento que me roban mi historia». Esta obra, escrita en primera persona y cuya publicación es en sí un acontecimiento histórico, viene, en efecto, a reparar esa situación. Si Su Majestad ha decidido dar cuenta de su historia después de casi cuarenta años de reinado, es porque el traslado a Abu Dabi, parte de la opinión publicada y, por qué no, los propios errores han acabado por ensombrecer su trayectoria y sus aportaciones fundamentales al éxito de la democracia española.


Reconciliación relata en detalle la parte privada de una vida pública. Son unas memorias ricas en anécdotas que no eluden los episodios más significativos de nuestra historia reciente, pero tampoco las alegrías ni los malos momentos de su vida íntima y personal. Un recorrido que empieza en un país inmerso en una guerra cainita y con un joven Juan Carlos anclado a un destino que no le pertenece, pero que paso a paso, eludiendo mil complots y ganándose la confianza de unos y otros, acaba convirtiéndose en el actor principal de la transformación radical de España en el estado moderno y próspero que es hoy.


Escrita a corazón abierto y sin concesiones, la obra navega entre los dos exilios que marcan el principio y final de su vida --el obligado, en Estoril, y el voluntario, en Abu Dabi-- y por ella transitan muchos de los protagonistas más destacados de la historia contemporánea. El monarca, en el crepúsculo de su vida y lejos de su familia, se dispone a hacer su última confesión. «No tengo derecho a llorar», dice. Pero tiene derecho a buscar su anhelada reconciliación con el país que tanto ama y añora.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR


The first-person memoirs of His Majesty King Juan Carlos.


"My father always advised me not to write my memoirs. Kings do not confess. Especially not in public. Their secrets remain buried in the shadows of palaces. Why do I disobey him now? Why have I changed my mind? Because I feel my story is being stolen from me." This work, written in the first person and whose publication is itself a historic event, seeks to set the record straight. If His Majesty has chosen to tell his story after nearly forty years of reign, it is because the move to Abu Dhabi, part of the published opinion, and--why not--his own mistakes have cast a shadow over his legacy and his fundamental contributions to the success of Spanish democracy.


Reconciliación (Reconciliation) recounts in detail the private side of a public life. These memoirs are rich in anecdotes and do not shy away from the most significant episodes of recent Spanish history, nor from the joys and hardships of his personal and intimate life. It is a journey that begins in a country torn by civil war, with a young Juan Carlos bound to a destiny not of his choosing, who--step by step, dodging countless plots and earning the trust of many--ultimately becomes the central figure in Spain's transformation into the modern and prosperous state it is today.


Written with an open heart and without concessions, the book moves between the two exiles that mark the beginning and end of his life--his forced exile in Estoril and his voluntary one in Abu Dhabi--and features many of the most prominent figures in contemporary history. The monarch, in the twilight of his life and far from his family, prepares to make his final confession. "I have no right to cry," he says. But he does have the right to seek the longed-for reconciliation with the country he so deeply loves and misses.

Smell
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
The fact that there are not more comments on the smell of these pillows has me worried about some of yall. Listen, I LOVE the weight, and the firmness, it’s perfect for that. However, these pillows are RANK. They have a very strong mildew-ish smell that lingers. I took the outer cover off and washed it and let the pillow air out for a few days, the smell is still very strong when you press your face against it, which one does because it is in fact designed for that purpose. It smells so bad. It’s nauseating. I can smell it through two pillowcases and blanket that I threw on top of them hoping an extra layer would trap the smell. I’ll bake them in the Texas sun tomorrow and hope that helps, because otherwise these are the perfect pillows for someone who wants to feel like they are hugging a torso but can’t stand the sound/feel of someone else breathing. I don’t know…4 stars, if the smell goes away I’ll come back. Update: many many days later. Either they don’t really smell anymore or I got use to it. They’ve held their firmness and shape well. I like them.

Actually Cooling Pillow
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This is a really nice pillow, I was worried it would be too soft or too firm but it's just right and it's actually cooling, it feels cool every time I touch it. I've noticed an improvement in sleep since using it. Would recommend!

Repurchased in King Size – Still Love These Cooling Pillows
Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling), Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
After using the queen-size version of these pillows for over a year, we purchased the king-size set when we upgraded to a king mattress. Both my husband and I really like them. The cooling feature works well, and we like that each side feels different—when I run cold, I use the softer bamboo side, while my husband prefers the cooler side since he tends to sleep hot. They fit well in our king-size pillowcases and feel supportive in all sleeping positions, whether I’m on my stomach, side, or back. I also appreciate that you can remove some of the filling to adjust the firmness. The covers are washable, which makes them easy to maintain. Overall, we’re very happy with this repurchase and the long-lasting comfort.

Not great at cooling
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
Each pillow cover has 2 sides, one marked for cooling, and the other a different fabric. The cooling side is about the same effectiveness as having a silk or satin pillow cover. It's only cool when you first touch it. The cooling side doesn't seem to absorb or wick moisture, so if you are sweaty - it keeps the moisture in place. You'll definitely want a regular pillow case over the pillow cover. In fact, if you suffer from night sweats, the non-cooling side is actually more comfortable. The pillow fill is ample, and simple to squish around for more support for your neck, etc. Think bean bag. But it will retain your impression after use. I find I need to do as I did when I had down pillows - give it a few good shakes in the morning when I make the bed to get it evened out for the coming night. In all, it is a well-made and comfortable pillow to sleep on, but it does not excel in cooling.

excellent pillows i bought two sets!!
Size: Firm Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
I ordered these for my son who has neck issues and has gone through so many pillows trying to find one that he liked. They’re heavy, so i was worried that they might be “too” heavy to be able to sleep on comfortably, so I ordered a second set, one firmer than the other (just in case) and gave him a set for Xmas and he loved the first set so much without even trying the less firm ones.He also needs the cooling factor and these offered that, too. They are filled with pieces of memory foam (tons of it) and each pillow can be modified by removing some of the foam. The covers are beautiful, high quality fabric with a zipper so ts easy to remove or replace the foam pieces. The size is perfect and they keep their shape. I kept the second set i ordered rather than returning them and i love the pillows. I actually modified two by removing some of the foam pieces. I kept the foam pieces in a zippered pillow protector and i can always adjust mine when or if i need to. 1000% love these.
