Book Synopsis Feliz Nochebuena, Feliz Navidad by : Maricel E. Presilla
Download or read book Feliz Nochebuena, Feliz Navidad written by Maricel E. Presilla and published by Henry Holt and Company (BYR). This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bittersweet memories, delicious recipes, and fabulous feasts await you in Feliz Nochebuena, Feliz Navidad, a sumptuous introduction to the history of Christmas celebrations in the Hispanic Caribbean. Beginning with her own memories of spit-roasted pork "with a garlicky Seville orange adobo" and holidays desserts such as turrones, mazapán, and buñuelos, author Maricel E. Presilla takes us on a journey through the history of Christmas in the Hispanic islands. As she describes all of the foods of Christmas Eve (Nochebuena) and Christmas Day, she tells us about the peoples from around the world who brought their ingredients and recipes to the table. We meet Arabs whose almond trees yielded the key ingredient in mazapán; Taino farmers who grew yuca; Spanish conquistadores who hunted pigs like in medieval Europe; African slaves who combined rice and peas to create flavorful new dishes. As she introduces each group of peoples and their foods, Dr. Presilla gives us carefully tested recipes that allow readers of all ages to join in on the feast. Ismael Espinosa Ferrer's vibrant, colorful paintings evoke the magic of holidays in Cuba, Puerto Rico, and now the United States.

Book Synopsis Maria Estela by : Dominique Ravelo-Napoli
Download or read book Maria Estela written by Dominique Ravelo-Napoli and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-07-11 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro se basa mayormente en la vida de mi madre. Les relato en palabras sencillas parte de su niñez, su vida con mi padre; cuando se mudó a Puerto Rico con sus hijas; y cómo murió. Aunque comienzo con una parte que es ficción, en “Morelia”, luego paso a la realidad de “María Estela”, donde encontrarás un conglomerado de amor, tristezas y muchas alegrías en la vida de mi madre y nosotras cuando pequeñas. Mi madre es de nacionalidad dominicana, igualmente mi padre. Nacimos en una hermosa isla llamada la Hispaniola, donde nuestro bello país, La República Dominicana, ocupa la tercera parte. De importancia es la realidad de la vida de mi madre; cuando se mudó a la vecina isla de Puerto Rico; donde llegó sola con tres niñas en los brazos y comenzó una vida nueva, con muy pocos ahorros. María Estela siempre sintió mucho agradecimiento por la hospitalidad que recibió de los puertorriqueños. Mami no sabía que yo estaba escribiendo un libro sobre ella. Sin embargo, poco a poco fui recopilando datos mientras la visitaba. Ella me contaba muchas cosas sobre su niñez y su vida. También obtuve mucha información sobre ella, durante conversaciones que mantuve con familiares en Santo Domingo y en los Estados Unidos. En el relato ficticio que comencé a escribir con el nombre de “Morelia”; identifiqué a mami con ese nombre; ya que a ella le gustaba todo lo que era mexicano. Además, “Morelia” es una ciudad en México muy preciosa y auténtica; de mucha historia y colorido, así como fue la vida de mamá. Cuando le dije la verdad; de que escribía sobre su vida pero en una vida “inventada” en Morelia, ella solo se sonrió y me dijo: “¡Mira muchacha, qué mucho tú inventa!”. Le dije: “Mamá es que comencé a imaginarme cosas y te cambié la vida. Todavía no he terminado, ya verás que volveré a tu realidad en el Capítulo de María Estela. Ahí relataré muchas de las cosas que me has dicho y de nuestra vida en Puerto Rico”. Ella seguía escuchándome muy pensativa y con un gran suspiro me dijo: “María Estela, ahora sí que tu historia parece realidad”. Mi madre fue una mujer ejemplar en su propia sencillez. Ella no completó sus estudios, pues comenzó a trabajar a temprana edad. Ella, con mucho esfuerzo y limitaciones, nunca dejó de proveer para sus tres hijas. Con el tiempo, sus fuerzas menguaron, pero su amor, ¡nunca! De este sentimiento surge la inspiración de muchos de mis poemas. También encontrarás algunas estrofas de un poema de mi hermana Tina; quien también es escritora. Incluyo una cronología de eventos importantes de la vida de mamá, parte de su genealogía, y documentos, cartas y fotos importantes sobre ella. Yo no esperaba publicar un libro; solo quería plasmar la vida de mi madre y cómo ella nos crio en Puerto Rico como un recuerdo de amor para mis familiares inmediatos. Escribí con las mejores intenciones de relatar las cosas como transcurrieron. Sin embargo, necesité mi mente creativa para completar algunos detalles; ya que no recuerdo todo como pasó, pero les aseguro que sí vivimos todas esas experiencias ¡y mucho más! Este relato es en memoria a María Estela y como agradecimiento a Puerto Rico, la vecina isla donde mami hizo muchos de sus sueños realidad y donde crecimos rodeadas de mucho cariño, palmeras, sol, arena y mar. Para mí y mis hermanas, la vida de mamá fue siempre un tapiz abierto y de muchas tonalidades. Mamá fue como una manta fuerte que nos cubría de amor y siempre nos protegía. Es un honor para nosotras compartir “María Estela y Sus Tres Hijas” con todos ustedes. Si tienes en tus manos una copia de este libro; espero que sientas el amor incondicional que solo una madre puede ofrecer, y que seas bendecido(a). ¡Gracias por tu interés!

Book Synopsis Before Fidel by : Francisco José Moreno
Download or read book Before Fidel written by Francisco José Moreno and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Fidel Castro seized power, Cuba was an ebullient and chaotic society in a permanent state of turmoil, combining a raucous tropical nature with the evils of arbitrary and corrupt government. Yet this fascinating period in Cuban history has been largely forgotten or misrepresented, even though it set the stage for Castro's dramatic takeover in 1959. To reclaim the Cuba that he knew—and add color and detail to the historical record—distinguished political scientist Francisco José Moreno here offers his recollections of the Cuba in which he came of age personally and politically. Moreno takes us into the little-known world of privileged, upper-middle-class, white Cubans of the 1930s through the 1950s. His vivid depictions of life in the family and on the streets capture the distinctive rhythms of Cuban society and the dynamics between parents and children, men and women, and people of different races and classes. The heart of the book describes Moreno's political awakening, which culminated during his student years at the University of Havana. Moreno gives a detailed, insider's account of the anti-Batista movement, including the Ortodoxos and the Triple A. He recaptures the idealism and naiveté of the movement, as well as its ultimate ineffectiveness as it fell before the juggernaut of the Castro Revolution. His own disillusionment and wrenching decision to leave Cuba rather than accept a commission in Castro's army poignantly closes the book.

Download or read book Salsa written by Rafael Falcón and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1998-06-18 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The daily routines, habits, beliefs, and values of the Hispanic culture that create unique human interactions in this society are revealed in this book. The book consists of 26 chapters relating to different themes that collectively provide an understanding of cultural responses. An anecdote is placed at the beginning of each chapter to assist the reader in understanding the more pedagogical information that follows. Reflected in this book is the reality that the Hispanic world covers a vast geographical area, and as such, is a mosaic of ethnic, religious, and historical backgrounds. Examples of diversity—the salsa, the taste of this culture—that makes this culture so unique are illustrated throughout the text. This book has been written with a wide range of readers in mind and will be of use to students on the secondary as well as undergraduate levels, teachers, social workers, and travelers.
