Sobre este audiolivro

What happens when the man you fall in love with knows how to tell everyone else's story, but hasn't learned which moments should remain private? At thirty-five, Alicja Brzoza has spent seven years building a life in Prague. She knows the city beyond its famous bridges, crowded squares, and picture-perfect landmarks. But what she loves most are its ordinary corners: independent workshops, quiet streets, forgotten courtyards, and the people who call them home. Determined to create something entirely her own, Alicja leaves the security of her previous job and launches Prague Without an Audience, an intimate walking-tour project designed to reveal the city's quieter side without turning its residents into attractions. Then she meets Dawid Wicher. Thirty-nine-year-old Dawid is a travel journalist from Warsaw, temporarily in Prague to write a feature about the city beyond the tourist trails. Observant, intelligent, and unexpectedly patient, he has a gift for discovering extraordinary stories in ordinary lives. He also has a dangerous professional habit: sometimes he recognizes the power of someone's personal story before stopping to ask whether he has the right to tell it. Their first encounter begins with an argument over a photograph. Their next meeting forces them to work together. Alicja needs attention for her new business. Dawid needs an authentic perspective for his assignment. They share a fascination with Prague, but their ideas about privacy, storytelling, and personal boundaries couldn't be more different. As they explore rain-soaked streets, visit small workshops, and discover hidden corners of the city, their professional partnership gradually becomes something neither anticipated. The attraction is impossible to ignore. There are lingering looks, conversations that stretch late into the evening, kisses that change the meaning of every subsequent meeting, and an intimacy that makes both of them question the lives they've carefully constructed. For Alicja, falling in love means risking the independence she fought so hard to reclaim. For Dawid, loving someone may require learning how to stay when his instincts tell him to leave. But desire isn't the same as trust. When Alicja discovers that private conversations and the emotional bond developing between them have begun shaping Dawid's feature, she faces a devastating question: can she trust a man who sees her both as the woman he wants and as the central character in a story he hopes to publish? Dawid must confront the difference between writing beautifully about human connection and protecting the person who has trusted him with her heart. As professional pressure increases and the possibility of losing each other becomes real, they must decide what love is worth when doing the right thing comes at a personal cost. Teach Me to Leave More Slowly is a passionate, emotionally layered contemporary romance about desire, independence, broken trust, and the courage it takes to build a relationship without losing yourself. Set against the atmospheric backdrop of autumn Prague, Laura Bellini's novel explores a simple but deeply unsettling truth: some of the most meaningful love stories are the ones nobody else has the right to tell. This publication was prepared using tools that support the creative process, including artificial intelligence solutions. The final concept, structure and editing are the responsibility of the author.
