¿Por qué amarás el diario de Hendrik Groen? Porque leer cura los achaques. Porque el humor geriátrico existe. Porque la lucidez no está reñida con la vejez. Porque el médico no siempre tiene razón. Porque en este diario nada es mentira, pero no todo es verdad. Porque es toda una lección de entereza. Porque cuando seamos mayores dominaremos el mundo.
