El libro más personal de la última revelación literaria española. Una poderosa historia real sobre la vida, el amor, la muerte y la literatura. «Oxígeno es la confirmación de que Marta Jiménez Serrano pertenece a la misma patria literaria que Zadie Smith, Nora Ephron o Joan Didion. Un texto emocionante, preciso, literario y lleno de furia de clase, que convierte el parpadeo entre lavida y la muerte en un universo de posibilidades, en la vida misma negándose a claudicar». - Alana Portero «He aquí una frase extraña: supe qué es estar muriéndose». En noviembre de 2020, pocos meses antes de publicar su primera novela, la autora de este libro estuvo a punto de morir. Un sábado como cualquier otro, en su casa, sin saberlo, ella y su pareja se estaban muriendo. La caldera tenía una fuga y el monóxido de carbono les fue adormeciendo hasta que Marta se levantó a duras penas para ir al baño. Ahí, cayó desplomada y se golpeó la cabeza. Cinco años ha necesitado para narrar esta experiencia en una historia que conjuga la tensión narrativa, la ansiedad y la esperanza. Oxígeno es «el libro que nunca hubiera querido escribir», el relato de los minutos en los que se les escapaba la vida, el de los meses que siguieron el accidente y el de los años que lo precedieron todo, cuando se enamoraron y empezaron a construir una vida sin pensar que podría terminar en cualquier momento. Combinando con maestría la sensibilidad, el sentido del humor y la lucidez, la autora mira de frente a la muerte para celebrar el asombro diario de seguir aquí. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThe most personal book by Spain's latest literary revelation. A powerful true story about life, love, death, and literature.
"Oxygen is the confirmation that Marta Jiménez Serrano belong to the same literary homeland that Zadie Smith, Nora Ephron, and Joan Didion. An exciting, precise, literary text full of class rage, which turns the blink between life and death into a universe of possibilities, into life itself refusing to give in." --Alana Portero "Here's a strange sentence: I knew what it was like to be dying." In November 2020, a few months before publishing her first novel, the author of this book was on the verge of death. On a Saturday like any other, at home, without knowing it, she and her partner were dying. The boiler was leaking, and carbon monoxide was numbing them until Marta struggled to get up to go to the bathroom. There, she collapsed and hit her head. It took her five years to recount this experience in a story that combines narrative tension, anxiety, and hope. Oxygen is "the book I never wanted to write," the story of the minutes in which their lives were slipping away, the months following the accident, and the years that preceded it all, when they fell in love and began to build a life without thinking it could end at any moment. Masterfully combining sensitivity, humor, and lucidity, the author looks death in the face to celebrate the daily wonder of still being here.

Excellent toy for play
My dog would play all day if I threw the ball to him. He loves this even though he's 12. The scooped end allows you to pick up the ball without touching it. After a few runs it's covered in dog slobber. So that's a major plus for me! Also, some health issues affect my walking and bending at times. This helps with the bending. This is a great game to play with your favorite friend!

Your high-energy dog will love it!
Why did I wait so long to get one of these?!? I am the stereotypical throws-like-a-girl person, and my dog really needs to have an option that forces her to run far and fast. This is it. I can get that ball half a soccer field away at a minimum if I want. The ball is super bouncy, which adds an element of fun to her attempts to tame it and bring it back. Super worth the money (which wasn't much!).
I've never had one of these before, so can't compare to the non-folding version. This one is easy to carry and fits in a drawer for storrage. No way you can fit it in a pocket, especially if you have a phone in one and dog treats in the other.

Great usability
I prefer this version over the non-foldable stick, as this one I can fit into my bag and carry it out easily. Great size and has a locking feature to prevent it from folding up when throwing. Highly recommend, my dogs love fetch and it is hard to chew if they get their hands on it.

Almost Perfect
If you’ve ever seen these things, the foldable ones are just as good as the standard ones. I just wish when you folded it up there was a way to lock it into that position. When you unfold it to play, you lock it into place with the orange locking slide so it doesn’t fold up on you. But when you’re done playing and fold it up, there’s no way to lock it into that position, it can keep unfolding if you carry it around with you, plus the orange locking slide keeps sliding up and down. It’s not a huge deal, but they could’ve made it better.
