Book excerpt: Newly Reissued New York Times Bestselling Author “Beautiful and heartrending. . . . Memoir, autobiography, epicedium, perhaps even some fiction: they are all here, and they are all quite wonderful.” —Los Angeles Times When Isabel Allende’s daughter, Paula, became gravely ill and fell into a coma, the author began to write the story of her family for her unconscious child. In the telling, bizarre ancestors appear before our eyes; we hear both delightful and bitter childhood memories, amazing anecdotes of youthful years, the most intimate secrets passed along in whispers. With Paula, Allende has written a powerful autobiography whose straightforward acceptance of the magical and spiritual worlds will remind readers of her first book, The House of the Spirits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Exotic, entertaining . . . [an] exceptional first novel.”—San Francisco Chronicle The year is 1861. After two centuries of isolation, Japan has opened its doors to the West. And as foreign ships threaten to rain destruction on the Shogun’s castle in Edo, a small group of American missionaries has arrived to spread the word of their God. They have yet to realize that their future in Japan has already been foreseen. For a young nobleman has dreamt that his life will be saved by an outsider in the New Year. . . and it is said that Lord Genji has the gift of prophecy. What happens next—when the handsome lord meets an appa rently reformed gunslinger and a woman in flight from her own destructive beauty—sets the stage for a remarkable adventure. For as this unlikely band embarks on a journey through a landscape bristling with danger, East and West, flesh and spirit, past and future, collide in ways no one—least of all Genji—could have imagined. Praise for Cloud of Sparrows “The book seizes you from start to finish.”—The Washington Post “Adventure-filled.”—Entertainment Weekly “Rich . . . with an ambitious, unexpected ending that cuts deeper than a samurai sword.”—San Francisco Chronicle
Book Synopsis Plebiscito Status Personalidad Colonizada Puerto Rico 2012 by : Guillermo Gonz Lez MD
Download or read book Plebiscito Status Personalidad Colonizada Puerto Rico 2012 written by Guillermo Gonz Lez MD and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro trata sobre las observaciones del Dr. Guillermo González en relación al desarrollo de la personalidad colonizada en Puerto Rico. Este tipo de personalidad ha sido descrito anteriormente por otros psiquiatras y psicólogos ampliamente en la literatura mundial, pero nunca en Puerto Rico. Este tipo de personalidad se desarrolla en el individuo a consecuencia de vivir prolongadamente en las distintas colonias que se reconocen internacionalmente. La definición de una colonia utilizada en este libro es la que oficialmente utiliza la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU) en su Comité de Descolonización. El libro intenta corregir vacíos y deficiencias de información en relación al situación objetiva de Puerto Rico y los puertorriqueños. En relación a Puerto Rico, en 1952 la ONU sacó incorrectamente a Puerto Rico de su listado de colonias. Esta decisión fue incorrecta, pues con la creación del Estado Libre Asociado, conocido en los EEUU como "Commonwealth of Puerto Rico", el título de propiedad de Puerto Rico todavía reside en los EEUU, según el Tratado de París de 1898. Desde entonces y hasta el presente, Puerto Rico es gobernado mediante decretos de los presidentes y leyes elaboradas en el Congreso de los EEUU. Esta admisión de hechos está oficialmente descrita en el informe del presidente Obama de 2011. En Noviembre 6 del 2012 se celebrará un plebiscito sobre el "status" de las relaciones con los EEUU. El autor describe en su libro cómo la personalidad colonizada en los puertorriqueños influenciará y decidirá la elección plebiscitaria en Puerto Rico.
Download or read book Más que dos written by Eve Rickert and published by Thorntree Press LLC. This book was released on 2019-08-16 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro More Than Two se publicó en el año 2014 y pronto se convirtió en un referente del poliamor, ya que se centra en exclusiva en este tipo de relaciones y ofrece multitud de casos prácticos y consejos útiles para su buen funcionamiento. Más allá de la pareja es la guía más reciente sobre poliamor ético. En sus 25 capítulos, los autores van y vienen de la teoría a la práctica. Eve Rickert y Franklin Veaux han recogido a lo largo de 20 años sus experiencias y las de cientos de miembros de la comunidad poliamorosa norteamericana. Este manual es una herramienta útil tanto para las personas que están empezando a pensar sus relaciones de forma poliamorosa como para quienes viven el poliamor desde hace tiempo y quieren encontrar ideas, reflexiones e historias de personas que han buscado relacionarse emocionalmente de forma ética y no monógama durante años. Los autores abordan los cuidados, las negociaciones, el veto, los derechos de las personas que tienen una relación con alguien que ya tiene pareja, las jerarquías en las relaciones y si estas tienen sentido, la confianza, el empoderamiento, los celos, la honestidad y la comunicación en relaciones no monógamas. Este libro no solo derriba los mitos de la monogamia, también algunos de los mitos de las relaciones no monógamas, Eve Rickert y Franklin Veaux nos invitan a cuestionar desde dónde decidimos querernos, escriben sobre el riesgo, el miedo y el crecimiento. No es posible abrirse al poliamor si no queremos habitar nuestra vulnerabilidad y no es posible amarnos sin asomarnos radicalmente a las necesidades y deseos de aquellas personas con las que caminamos.
Book Synopsis Lord of All the Dead by : Javier Cercas
Download or read book Lord of All the Dead written by Javier Cercas and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-04-04 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord of All the Dead is a courageous journey into Javier Cercas' family history and that of a country collapsing from a fratricidal war. The author revisits Ibahernando, his parents' village in southern Spain, to research the life of Manuel Mena. This ancestor, dearly loved by Cercas' mother, died in combat at the age of nineteen during the battle of the Ebro, the bloodiest episode in Spain's history. Who was Manuel Mena? A fascist hero whose memory is an embarrassment to the author, or a young idealist who happened to fight on the wrong side? And how should we judge him, as grandchildren and great-grandchildren of that generation, interpreting history from our supposed omniscience and the misleading perspective of a present full of automatic answers, that fails to consider the particularities of each personal and family drama? Wartime epics, heroism and death are some of the underlying themes of this unclassifiable novel that combines road trips, personal confessions, war stories and historical scholarship, finally becoming an incomparable tribute to the author's mother and the incurable scars of an entire generation. Translated from the Spanish by Anne McLean
Book Synopsis Vanguardias Rusas by : Tomás Llorens Serra
Download or read book Vanguardias Rusas written by Tomás Llorens Serra and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La exposición abarca una amplia selección de obras y manifestaciones artísticas de naturaleza heterogénea, desde la pintura y la escultura, hasta la fotografía, el diseño gráfico y las artes aplicadas, y se propone ofrecer una visión sintética del periodo comprendido entre 1907 y 1935, periodo de convulsión política y cultural y de ruptura con la concepción positivista del mundo propia del siglo XIX, en el que tuvo lugar un importante renacimiento cultural manifestado tanto en las artes visuales como en la literatura y las artes escénicas. Poetas y pintores, con una postura abiertamente radical, apostaron entonces por un lenguaje totalmente innovador con el que querían abrir el camino a un mundo nuevo, la vida artística rusa se llenó de exposiciones programáticas, encendidos manifiestos y declaraciones teóricas, al tiempo que se sucedían numerosos movimientos de vanguardia, algunos derivados de las influencias foráneas, como el cubofuturismo o el rayonismo, y otros genuinos de la nueva Rusia revolucionaria, como el suprematismo o el constructivismo.

Book Synopsis The Woman from Uruguay by : Pedro Mairal
Download or read book The Woman from Uruguay written by Pedro Mairal and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-07-20 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice From acclaimed Argentine author Pedro Mairal and Man Booker International-winning translator Jennifer Croft, the unforgettable story of two would-be lovers over the course of a single day. Lucas Pereyra, an unemployed writer in his forties, embarks on a day trip from Buenos Aires to Montevideo to pick up fifteen thousand dollars in cash. An advance due to him on his upcoming novel, the small fortune might mean the solution to his problems, most importantly the tension he has with his wife. While she spends her days at work and her nights out on the town-with a lover, perhaps, he doesn't know for sure-Lucas is stuck at home all day staring at the blank page, caring for his son Maiko and fantasizing about the one thing that keeps him going: the woman from Uruguay whom he met at a conference and has been longing to see ever since. But that woman, Magalí Guerra Zabala, is a free spirit with her own relationship troubles, and the day they spend together in this beautiful city on the beach winds up being nothing like Lucas predicted. The constantly surprising, moving story of this dramatically transformative day in their lives, The Woman from Uruguay is both a gripping narrative and a tender, thought-provoking exploration of the nature of relationships. An international bestseller published in fourteen countries, it is the masterpiece of one of the most original voices in Latin American literature today.
Book Synopsis Afternoon of the Dinosaur by : Cristina Peri Rossi
Download or read book Afternoon of the Dinosaur written by Cristina Peri Rossi and published by Svenson Publishers. This book was released on 2014-01-26 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Afternoon of the Dinosaur, by Cristina Peri Rossi, one of the most important Spanish writers of our time, was first published in 1976. Due to censorship in Spain under Franco, it was initially distributed only in Latin America. Then, in 1984, it was published again by Plaza y Janés (Barcelona), and in 2008 it was reissued by Tropo Editores (Zaragoza). This volume is composed of eight lyrical and powerful short stories bound together by themes of alienation and generational conflict in the modern world. According to the author, "the stories are all connected by a sense of persecution and by the solidarity that this sometimes creates between two persons." The first, "From Brother to Sister," deals with the yearnings of love of an adolescent for his sister. In the second, "At the Beach," a young couple encounters a child who both mystifies and troubles them with her extraordinary questions. With "The Influence of Edgar A. Poe on the Poet Raimundo Arias," we find the deep-felt sense of exile of Peri Rossi herself. Two pieces of this collection that carry the title "Simulacrum" give us a science-fiction world of space travel in which human feelings are lost. As the author says, "the final word of the tale is 'mercy, ' (it is a sense of) pity that I feel for myself and for all human beings, because we are condemned to die, to suffer dictatorships, because we are condemned many times to oppression, and we need to seek out, in the midst of this suffering, our fellow men." As for the title story of this collection, "The Afternoon of the Dinosaur," the author confesses that her dreams, at the time of the military dictatorship in Montevideo when people simply disappeared," were often haunted by terrifying dinosaurs. The dinosaur, for her, symbolized fear, danger, the threat of the government. She wanted to tame the dinosaur, to change it into a loving character. It was only after she wrote this story that dinosaurs disappeared from her dreams. Julio Cortázar writes: "Cristina Peri Rossi is not only aware of the hells of this world, she understand the lures of paradise. Her exquisite prose projects her readers into a surrealistic realm that is filled with forbidden yet fascinating choices." In his introduction to the Spanish version of "La tarde del dinosaurio," he says: "In three of the stories from this book the children will lay bare the world of those who claim to control it, and will reduce it to a laughingstock of truth... Brothers and sisters, queens and slaves, false adults incapable of accepting the laws of the game, people that an Aubrey Beardsley or an Egon Schiele would have drawn with the perverse perfection of sterile desire, of a pursuit whose sole incentive is that of not catching the prey, whether it be named Patricia or Alexandra, Igor or Alina. False adults, for the simple reason that adults are false. And the adolescent turns to its past in a last, desperate act of resistance; but its sex and its hair and its voice drag it to the peak that the boy of the dinosaur contemplates in final horror. Now there are no victims or assassins in those rooms of the house; the last of its visitors is able only to utter one useless word: Mercy."
Book Synopsis Diccionario de la Democracia by : Patricio Marcos
Download or read book Diccionario de la Democracia written by Patricio Marcos and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 825 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Diccionario de la Democracia contiene la teoría y la ideología de los regímenes democráticos: sus antecedentes; orígenes; principios; modalidades de deliberación y leyes; sus instituciones clave y variedades, acorde con la clase social que los dirija y el arreglo institucional correlativo. Asimismo compara sus principios, leyes e instituciones con otros regímenes, particularmente con sus opuestos, las oligarquías o gobiernos de pocos, pero también con la república, la tiranía y la realeza; las razones de Estado que permiten su conquista, conservación y estabilidad; las fuentes internas y externas que los amenazan; las maneras de corromperse y las revoluciones que los afectan. Trata también de los usos, costumbres y caracteres democráticos; inventaría los rasgos éticos de la vida democrática, por sí mismos y comprobados con los de los ricos, las clases medias y los tiranos, hasta detallar las relaciones que sostienen entre sí dirigentes y dirigidos, hombres y mujeres, viejos, jóvenes, maestros y alumnos, ciudadanos y animales..., por el impacto que la libertad e igualdad popular tienen en la vida pública y privada de sus pueblos. Parte medular del mismo es la exposición de las doctrinas, dogmas, leyes e instituciones del modelo liberal moderno de la democracia; un credo que se analiza en calidad de justificación del nouveau régime por parte de sus ideólogos modernos más destacados y lúcidos, quienes desvían el significado de las palabras ] democracia ] y ] liberal ] atribuidas sin más a los Estados modernos.
Book Synopsis The Book of Daniel by : E.L. Doctorow
Download or read book The Book of Daniel written by E.L. Doctorow and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-11-10 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central figure of this novel is a young man whose parents were executed for conspiring to steal atomic secrets for Russia. His name is Daniel Isaacson, and as the story opens, his parents have been dead for many years. He has had a long time to adjust to their deaths. He has not adjusted. Out of the shambles of his childhood, he has constructed a new life—marriage to an adoring girl who gives him a son of his own, and a career in scholarship. It is a life that enrages him. In the silence of the library at Columbia University, where he is supposedly writing a Ph.D. dissertation, Daniel composes something quite different. It is a confession of his most intimate relationships—with his wife, his foster parents, and his kid sister Susan, whose own radicalism so reproaches him. It is a book of memories: riding a bus with his parents to the ill-fated Paul Robeson concert in Peekskill; watching the FBI take his father away; appearing with Susan at rallies protesting their parents’ innocence; visiting his mother and father in the Death House. It is a book of investigation: transcribing Daniel’s interviews with people who knew his parents, or who knew about them; and logging his strange researches and discoveries in the library stacks. It is a book of judgments of everyone involved in the case—lawyers, police, informers, friends, and the Isaacson family itself. It is a book rich in characters, from elderly grand- mothers of immigrant culture, to covert radicals of the McCarthy era, to hippie marchers on the Pen-tagon. It is a book that spans the quarter-century of American life since World War II. It is a book about the nature of Left politics in this country—its sacrificial rites, its peculiar cruelties, its humility, its bitterness. It is a book about some of the beautiful and terrible feelings of childhood. It is about the nature of guilt and innocence, and about the relations of people to nations. It is The Book of Daniel.

Book Synopsis De Cobitos, Jaibas y Lambe Ojos Sobre La Personalidad Colonizada en Puerto Rico by : Guillermo González
Download or read book De Cobitos, Jaibas y Lambe Ojos Sobre La Personalidad Colonizada en Puerto Rico written by Guillermo González and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-01-11 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historia nacional, personalidad y sus interacciones de esto trata este libro. La pregunta que les hago a través de todo el libro es ¿puede el individuo escapar fácilmente de su contexto histórico, socioeconómico y actuar como si hubiese nacido en otro país? Algunos asocian la manera der ser de los individuos con su herencia familiar. Pocos ven conexión de la personalidad con su contexto histórico e historia. Con este libro espero demostrarles a todos que 517 años de colonización han transformado a los puertorriqueños en colonizados. Este tipo de personalidad los mantiene atrapados como sumisos y subordinados colonizados; todos en una lucha fratricida. Lucha donde unos defi enden al colonizador español; otros al norteamericano. Sus luchas son irracionales y pasionales impidiendo el saludable desarrollo de la verdadera identidad individual y nacional Puertorriqueña.
