·  NOVELA INSPIRADA EN LA VIDA NOCTURNA OCULTA DE BERLÍN  · 

Lo que no sé si quiero

Berlín tiene una vida nocturna que nunca aparece en las guías. A Claire le encargan descubrirla. Durante once años se ha ganado la vida haciendo preguntas. Pero hay una que nunca ha sabido responder.

¿Qué quieres?


Cuando una revista francesa la envía a explorar la faceta más íntima de la noche berlinesa, Claire comienza a cruzar puertas que antes habría observado únicamente desde fuera, clubes sex-positive, fiestas privadas y lugares sin nombre donde se habla del deseo, los límites y el consentimiento con una claridad sorprendente.


Al principio cree que observar es suficiente. Pero Berlín tiene otras reglas. Cuanto más se adentra en los secretos y deseos de los demás, más difícil le resulta ignorar los suyos. Quizás el verdadero secreto de la vida nocturna de Berlín no sea lo que ocurre tras las puertas cerradas.


Quizás sea lo que descubres sobre ti mismo cuando finalmente decides entrar.


Lo que no sé si quiero es una novela contemporánea y sensual sobre el deseo, la identidad, el consentimiento y la difícil pregunta de saber qué queremos realmente.

Walking Upright

Walking Upright  is the first book in the trilogy that bears its name. It tells the story of Gichin Funakoshi, the master who brought Tōde from Okinawa to Japan and helped transform it into Karate-Dō.


Through his life, the book opens the path for the rest of the trilogy, exploring the spirit of Budō: discipline, humility, respect, and character.


For Gichin Funakoshi, Karate was not merely a technique, but a way of walking upright through life.

Lo que no sé si quiero

Berlín está llena de contradicciones. Una de las más hermosas es la forma en que entiende la libertad, no como la posibilidad de hacer lo que quieras, sino como la posibilidad de ser tú mismo dentro de espacios seguros, respaldados por reglas claras que todos aceptan y respetan. Por eso, paradójicamente, la libertad de Berlín está llena de normas.


Y luego está la noche. Esa le pertenece únicamente a Berlín.

In many places in Berlin, you simply won’t get in. It doesn’t matter where you come from, the colour of your skin, how you dress, or how well you think you know the city. Nothing guarantees that you will understand the logic of the door, and absolutely nothing guarantees that you will be invited to cross it.


But if, one night, you do make it inside, if you cross that threshold and accept its rules, you begin to understand something that is difficult to explain from the outside. For a few hours, you are no longer simply someone visiting Berlin. You become part of its night.



That is also what Claire discovers. Because experiencing the city’s true nightlife is not simply about finding the right doors. It is about discovering who you are when they finally open.

What I'm not sure I want

Claire can cross the door. The real choice is who walks through it.

In many places in Berlin, you simply won’t get in. It doesn’t matter where you come from, the colour of your skin, how you dress, or how well you think you know the city. Nothing guarantees that you will understand the logic of the door, and absolutely nothing guarantees that you will be invited to cross it.


But if, one night, you make it past the door — if you cross that threshold and accept its rules — you begin to understand something that is almost impossible to explain from the outside. For a few hours, you are no longer simply visiting Berlin. You become part of its night.


That is what Claire begins to discover. Because entering Berlin’s hidden nightlife is not only about finding the right doors. It is about what happens when they finally open — and who you choose to become once you step through.


The question is simple: when the door opens, who will walk through it — Claire or Juliette?
