El tiempo regalado

Life is weaved with a continuous thread of waiting and events. "Waiting is a hassle" begins the book, but it is also inevitable--it's something that we do constantly, whether waiting in line at the supermarket or for someone to respond to our texts. Waiting permits us to assess our past but also shape the future. There is no growth nor authentic development without waiting. In this essay, Andrea Köhler considers literary passages to show us how waiting is an essential part of human experience.
