A zombie who yearns for a better life ends up falling in love with a human, in this original debut novel. R is a zombie. He has no memories, no identity, and no pulse, but he has dreams. He doesn't enjoy killing people; he enjoys riding escalators and listening to Frank Sinatra. He is a little different from his fellow Dead. Not just another zombie novel, this is funny, scary, and deeply moving.… (altro)
I am not a fan of zombie books, shows, anything, but this was really great. It was funny and dark and gross but still happy. There is a second coming out next year. I can't wait. ( )
This book was oddly sweet. There are very few books where the zombie tells the story from his point of view, so there you go. Well written, and had me not wanting to put it down. Actually, it is one of those that I read, and the next couple books will not even compare. Oddly, after seeing a picture of the author, I pictured him as R rather easily.
R es un zombi que no recuerda nada de su vida anterior, ni siquiera su nombre. Un día todo cambia. Durante una cacería, se topa con un grupo de jóvenes armados, y logra atrapar a uno. Cuando comienza a devorarlo, una oleada de recuerdos lo invade, en los que ve a Julie por primera vez. Cuando vuelve en sí se da cuenta que ella está allí mismo, defendiéndose de los zombies. Para protegerla, la lleva a un aeropuerto abandonado. Desde que la conoce, siente que está cambiando. Vuelve a sentir. Ambientada en un mundo post apocalíptico, donde humanos y zombies se temen mutuamente, es una novela sobre el poder que tienen el amor, la compasión y la ternura para cambiar el mundo.
Warm bodies is a unique look into the mind of a zombie. Isaac has cleverly crafted a romance and horror fantasy. an enjoyable read though it had its dull moments. ( )

You have known, O Gilgamesh,/ What interests me,/ To dink form the Well of Immortality./ Which means to make the dead/ Rise from their graves/ And the prisoners from their cells/ The sinners from their sins./ I think love's kiss kills our heart of flesh./ It is the only way to eternal life,/ Which should be unbearable if lived/ Among the dying flowers/ And the shrieking farewells/ Of the outstretched arms of our spoiled hopes. - Herbert Mason Gilgamesh: A Verse Narrative

My friend 'M' says the irony of being a zombie is that everything is funny, but you can't smile, because your lips have rotted off.
