Maggiori informazioni sul libro
At last, the pony is in the stable—a small, nimble chestnut. His new owner, a writer who found the city too confining and purchased a cottage in the countryside, recalls all the old horse-trading tricks learned from his grandfather. For it is Pedro, this bundle of energy covered in fur, who ignites the writer's long-suppressed passion for horses. They must now learn to adapt to one another, which means learning from each other. Pedro will pull the cart, tolerate a rider on his back, and perform actions that humans marvel at as cleverness. Erwin Strittmatter, who has a unique understanding of both words and horses, "translates" Pedro's behavior for us: it is about experiences. This beautiful horse story conveys not only the joy of companionship but also a profound respect for all living beings, which is one of the deepest roots of Strittmatter's poetry.
