Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Looming Tower—a riveting thriller and “all-too-convincing chronicle of science, espionage, action and speculation” (The Wall Street Journal). At an internment camp in Indonesia, forty-seven people are pronounced dead with acute hemorrhagic fever. When epidemiologist Henry Parsons travels there on behalf of the World Health Organization to investigate, what he finds will have staggering repercussions. Halfway across the globe, the deputy director of U.S. Homeland Security scrambles to mount a response to the rapidly spreading pandemic leapfrogging around the world, which she believes may be the result of an act of biowarfare. And a rogue experimenter in man-made diseases is preparing his own terrifying solution. As already-fraying global relations begin to snap, the virus slashes across the United States, dismantling institutions and decimating the population. With his own wife and children facing diminishing odds of survival, Henry travels from Indonesia to Saudi Arabia to his home base at the CDC in Atlanta, searching for a cure and for the origins of this seemingly unknowable disease. The End of October is a one-of-a-kind thriller steeped in real-life political and scientific implications, filled with the insight that has been the hallmark of Wright’s acclaimed nonfiction and the full-tilt narrative suspense that only the best fiction can offer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: - Un adolescente, enardecido por la lectura de Moby Dick, aprovecha las vacaciones de verano para embarcarse, en los confines australes de América, allí donde se termina el mundo, en un ballenero que por primera vez le llevará por esos mares donde todavía navegan legendarios héroes de verdad y de mentira. Muchos años después, el joven chileno, ya convertido en adulto y residente al otro lado del planeta, periodista y miembro activo del movimiento Greenpeace, vuelve inesperadamente a los lejanos parajes de su escapada juvenil por una razón muy distinta, pero tal vez igualmente romántica : barcos piratas están depredando la fauna marítima que habita las gélidas e impolutas aguas del mundo del fin del mundo. Hay que seguir las huellas sanguinarias del feroz capitán Tanifuji, encontrar pruebas, denunciarlo, impedir la barbarie y salvar a Sarita, atrapada en una enmarañada red de oscuros intereses internacionales. La solitaria obsesión del capitán Ahab por una ballena enorme ha dado lugar al exterminio sistemático e indiscriminado de una banda de modernos corsarios.

Book excerpt: "Liliana Heker is one of the most remarkable voices of the Argentinean generation after Borges ... her fiction chronicles the small tragedies that take place within the vast tragedy of our history. A universal and indispensable writer." - Alberto Manguel When Diana Glass witnesses Leonora's abduction from a street in Buenos Aires, she despairs that her friend has joined the ranks of los desaparaecidos, the missing ones. She begins to write the story of their friendship, but certain memories, details, and whispered allegations about Leonora's fate consistently intrude. Leonora was born to drink life down to the bottom of the glass. But, Diana wonders, is that necessarily a virtue? Gripping, intelligent, and intricately structured, Liliana Heker's novel of an unstable revolutionary pasionaria has inflamed readers across Latin America. The End of the Story is a shocking study of the pyschology of torture, and a tragic portrait of Argentina's Dirty War.

This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El fundamento teórico de los cálculos catastrofistas es la teoría de Hubbert, que supone que la evolución historica de la producción de un campo petrolífero sigue una distribución gausiana. Según esta teoría, en cuanto un yacimiento alcanza un cenit, es posible prever su caída y calcular cuantos años de vida le quedan. Sin embargo eso no es asi, ya que la velocidad de disminución del rendimiento no es simétrica a la de su aumento y la producción histórica de la enorme mayoría de los yacimientos petrolíferos muestra una curva con varias mesetas de producción máxima, correspondientes a sucesivas etapas de resurrección de la producción gracias a la aplicación de modernas técnicas de Recuperación Mejorada, lo que genera un suave declive de la producción, manteniendose durante muchos más años que lo previsto por la teoría de Hubbert. Pero el principal error de esta teoria es que, aunque fuese aplicable a un determinado yacimiento, es imposible que pueda extenderse a la producción de todo un país.

Book excerpt: "Muy a menudo creemos que tanto nuestro mundo como el universo son lugares caóticos, pero lo que se necesita mejorar no es el Universo como tal, sino su modo de mirarlo" La insaciable búsqueda de respuestas y el eterno deseo por obtener el conocimiento acerca del funcionamiento de las cosas, saber de dónde venimos, adónde nos dirigimos y por qué hacemos lo que hacemos, en un anhelo por alejarse del caótico espectáculo mundano de lo monótono y lo conocido en busca de nuevas experiencias en todas y cada una de las ciudades de Bolivia; Marú termina por encontrar algo mucho más valioso e inesperado que un simple viaje turístico, termina por encontrar el mejor de los regalos, el regalo de saber quienes somos y de qué estamos hechos en realidad. Cayendo en cuenta de que sumidos en nuestros propios problemas, hemos perdido tanto, pero tanto tiempo preocupándonos por sobrevivir, que nos hemos olvidado totalmente de lo que significa vivir.

Book excerpt: Se dО pleno conocimiento que el contenido de este libro puede producir algЬn temor, o reacciones contrarias para las personas que no quieren poner sus vidas en paz con Dios el Creador, y con ellas mismas; pero tambiОn tengo claridad en saber que la mayor parte de lectores estarЗn de acuerdo por las siguientes razones: 1... En que este es el "tiempo de la verdad" y que no podemos darnos el lujo de seguir viviendo una vida engaЦada, equivocada, llena de dudas, confusiones; en oscurantismo, e ignorando el verdadero propЧsito establecido por Dios, con relaciЧn al hombre, y en especial a su iglesia. Y que en este libro encontrarЗn mucha claridad de los acontecimientos del fin, que los podrЗn sacar de los laberintos de ti nieblas elaborados por SatanЗs. Y 2...Que: tengamos claridad en lo que concierne con el propЧsito de YahvО Dios con relaciЧn al acto mЗs importante de nuestra redenciЧn, rescate y de nuestra salvaciЧn. Y Para ello tener la plena seguridad y conocimiento de lo que es, y la importancia que tiene la Iglesia de Jesucristo con relaciЧn a la iglesia del Anticristo, o gran Ramera como la apellida la palabra de Dios. 3... Y sobre todas las cosas: que anhelemos este dТa glorioso de la segunda venida de Nuestro SeЦor Jesucristo, para que terminando con la iniquidad, la maldad desaparezca por completo hasta los confines de la tierra; y que todos estemos preparados para cuando suene la final trompeta, seamos traspuestos "en un abrir y cerrar de ojos, para reunirnos con el SeЦor en el Aire".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep within the remote backlands of nineteenth-century Brazil lies Canudos, home to all the damned of the earth: prostitutes, bandits, beggars, and every kind of outcast. It is a place where history and civilization have been wiped away. There is no money, no taxation, no marriage, no census. Canudos is a cauldron for the revolutionary spirit in its purest form, a state with all the potential for a true, libertarian paradise--and one the Brazilian government is determined to crush at any cost. In perhaps his most ambitious and tragic novel, Mario Vargas Llosa tells his own version of the real story of Canudos, inhabiting characters on both sides of the massive, cataclysmic battle between the society and government troops. The resulting novel is a fable of Latin American revolutionary history, an unforgettable story of passion, violence, and the devastation that follows from fanaticism.

Book excerpt: Phenomena such as the Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, or the surge of political populism show that the current phase of accelerated globalization is over. New concepts are needed in order to respond to this exhaustion of the global project: the volume scrutinizes these responses in the aesthetic realm and under a "post-global" banner, while incorporating alternative, non-Western epistemologies and literatures of the post-colonial Global South.

Book excerpt: Why should there only be literary scholarship about authors who actually lived, and texts which exist? Where are the articles on Enoch Campion, Linus Withold, Redondo Panza, Darshan Singh, or Heidi B. Morton? That none of these are real authors should be no impediment to interpreting their invented writings. In the first collection of its kind, The Anthology of Babel publishes academic articles by scholars on authors, books, and movements that are completely invented. Blurring the lines between scholarship and creative writing, The Anthology of Babel inaugurates a completely new literary genre perfectly attuned to the era we live in, a project evocative of Jorge-Louis Borges, Umberto Eco, and Italo Calvino.

Book excerpt: VERSES OF THE SANCTUARY is the continuation of a journey of the children of the Sanctuary which started in ANAMNESIS. The children of the Sanctuary, are the creative minds, the divine souls, gods among human begins and the light of life. They live in the human society, just like everyone else but all along, they have felt something is missing, they perceive that there is something else; they try to find the inexplicable to the reason and to the senses... the truth. Understanding more the new world, behind unopened doors, between unexplored parallels, where the poetical verses of art dominates, where philosophy is a life style and where all the immortal souls belongs to... the eternal place, the Sanctuary. Here are the Poetry and Songs, experience by the divine immortal souls, fighting their own demons, in a world of dark mortal souls, a world of hate and chaos, destruction and confusion.

Book excerpt: "A tale of diversity within our damaged landscapes, The Mushroom at the End of the World follows one of the strangest commodity chains of our times to explore the unexpected corners of capitalism. Here, we witness the varied and peculiar worlds of matsutake commerce: the worlds of Japanese gourmets, capitalist traders, Hmong jungle fighters, industrial forests, Yi Chinese goat herders, Finnish nature guides, and more. These companions also lead us into fungal ecologies and forest histories to better understand the promise of cohabitation in a time of massive human destruction."--Publisher's description.
