Book Synopsis Of Death and Beauty: A Novel by : Barbara Grenfell Fairhead
Download or read book Of Death and Beauty: A Novel written by Barbara Grenfell Fairhead and published by Sunstone Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the beautiful Magdalena Chavez and her troubled, passionate son move into the small town of Las Madres, New Mexico, it doesn't take long for the discerning among the townspeople to discover that they are "other." Magdalena is a teller of stories that delight many, but also challenge the assumptions of one and all. Soon the reader is seduced into an enchanted world in which the boundary between reality and fantasy is always on the point of collapsing. The main characters must maintain a difficult balance between opposing polarities-sacred and profane, forbidden desire and ruthless power-a balance that seems to come instinctively to the simple but knowing inhabitants of Las Madres. Fairhead is utterly at home in this environment, evoking it with a mixture of precision and lyrical intensity. Whether she is describing the tumult of a bullfight, the stillness of a work of art or the vast, cinematic splendour of the New Mexico landscape, her voice is always pitch perfect. As the title suggests, it is a world of great beauty, but that same title also warns us that we cannot speak of beauty without also speaking of death. The Duende, that dark wind that blows through the world and touches the back of the neck whenever death is possible, is never far away.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lonely Planet: The world's leading travel guide publisher Lonely Planet presents Spain's most authentic dishes - direct from the kitchens where they were perfected. From family bakers to Michelin-starred chefs, Spain's best local cooks share their passion for food and their region's classic recipes - from tapas, pastries and cakes to soup, salads, stews, roasts and fresh seafood dishes. Recipes include: Escalivada - chargrilled vegetable salad Lubina a la Mallorquina - Mallorcan-style sea bream Paella Valenciana - chicken and rabbit paella Cochinillo - suckling pig Lechazo - roast lamb Churros - fried dough sticks with chocolate Pintxos - Basque tapas Fabada Asturiana - Asturian bean stew Gazpacho - chilled tomato soup Tarta de Santiago - St James cake And more! In recent years regional Spanish cuisine has won attention and praise thanks to award-winning restaurants in Catalonia and the Basque Country (some of these restaurants are featured in From the Source Spain). Food in Spain is very closely connected to the country's regions, with local specialities based on regional ingredients, whether that's seafood, meat or vegetables. As a result, there's no better way of of getting to know Spanish culture than through its food (and wine). From the Source Spain is the key that unlocks Spain's culinary secrets. With 60 recipes by leading local chefs, it takes us through this fascinating country, rich in history. We travel from Barcelona's fashionable bars for Catalan cooking to the getaway island of Mallorca (home of unique black pigs), then to the central heartlands around Madrid where tasty stews and roast lamb dominate. In the northwest regions of the Basque country, Asturias and Galicia, we discover Spain's most adventurous and contemporary cooking, as ambitious chefs conjure up new twists on classic dishes. And in the sun-drenched south of Spain we encounter interesting flavours and reminders of the Moors. Hailed as 'a future classic', this series of books connects home cooks with the traditions of each country's regions. There are dishes for every ability, from artful pintxos snacks to simple and filling stews and soups. There is no better way to recapture those travel memories than by exploring this book. Every recipe features an expertly written introduction and amazing and original on-site photography. Meet the chefs, encounter the region and history, see the food, and try the recipe!

Book Synopsis Latina Lesbian Writers and Artists by : Maria Dolores Costa
Download or read book Latina Lesbian Writers and Artists written by Maria Dolores Costa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore a little-known side of the lesbian artistic world! With this book, you’ll explore the work of the most significant contemporary Latina lesbian writers, artists, and performers in the United States, Latin America, and Spain. This book presents and analyzes literature, art, and poetry by women who, despite markedly different backgrounds and experiences, are all strongly influenced by the concept of lesbian identity. Latina Lesbian Writers and Artists begins with an essential A-to-Z overview of modern Latina lesbian authors and performers. From Cuban writer Magaly Alabau to literary critic Yvonne Yarbro-Bejarano, you’ll learn who these women are, where they’re from, and what they’ve chosen as the focus of their work. The rest of the book is structured to give you a look at the work Latina lesbians in the United States and then moves geographically outward, first to Latin America, then to Spain. “Tortilleras on the Prairie: Latina Lesbians Writing the Midwest” provides a unique look at a much-neglected component of Latina lesbian writing—that of the Latinas living far from the East and West Coast hubs of both Latino and queer cultures, exploring Latina lesbian literary production in places like Kansas and Nebraska. “The Role of Carmelita Tropicana in the Performance Art of Alina Troyano,” appraises the imaginative, hilarious, and insightful work of Cuban-American performance artist Alina Troyano (better known by her stage name, Carmelita Tropicana), examining the strategies she used (code switching, the breaking of heterosexist norms, the development of alter-egos, and more) to create a hybrid identity as an artist and performer. “Moving La Frontera Toward a Genuine Radical Democracy in Gloria Anzaldúa’s Work” shows us how Anzaldúa’s pivotal work Borderlands has revolutionized academic perceptions of the border and of identity in Latin American/U.S. Latino literature. You’ll also find passionate poetry created by Latina lesbians. “Como Sabes, Depresión” is a fragment of a passionate bilingual poem written by an English-speaking poet enamored of the Spanish language, and “To Sor Juana” is a poem dedicated to the seventeenth century poet and nun who has become an icon among Latina lesbians. “Lesbianism and Caricature in Griselda Gambaro’s Lo impenetrable” shows how lesbian characters and themes in the works of this Argentine novelist are used to satirize and undermine the perverse social values of patriarchal dictatorship. “The (In)visible Lesbian: The Contradictory Representations of Female Homoeroticism in Contemporary Spain” introduces us to some of Spain’s lesbian authors and communicates the difficulties lesbian writers in that country and around the world have had in finding a receptive audience.

Book excerpt: “Traces the intergenerational legacies of the Spanish civil war through two groups of families . . . an enthralling novel with real historical heft.” —Judith Keene, author of Treason on the Airwaves When Rose, a young English nurse with humanitarian ideals, decides to volunteer in the Spanish Civil War, she is little prepared for the experiences that await her. Working on the front line and witness to the horrors of war, she falls in love with a Republican fighter. As defeat becomes inevitable, Rose is faced with a decision that will change her life and leave her with lasting scars. Meanwhile we meet Consuelo, a girl growing up in a staunchly Catholic family on the other side of the ideological divide. When she discovers that she was adopted, her attempts to learn more about her origins come to a dead end. But years later Consuelo’s daughter, Marisol, growing up in a rapidly changing Spain, decides to investigate the dark secrets of her family and find the answers that have until now eluded her mother . . . What links Rose and Consuelo? Will Marisol uncover the truth? Sometimes the truth lies in the darkest places. “A wonderful book. It is so evocative of 1930s Britain and the generation for whom Spain was a huge issue . . . I really enjoyed reading it, with so many of the characters so brilliantly realised.” —Jeremy Corbyn, former leader of the Labour Party “The big themes of history are brought alive through the stories of a diverse cast of characters.” —John Simmons, author of Spanish Crossing

Book Synopsis Whereof One Cannot Speak by : Barbara Grenfell Fairhead
Download or read book Whereof One Cannot Speak written by Barbara Grenfell Fairhead and published by Sunstone Press. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Octavia Chavez, eighteen and fiercely passionate, has spent her life listening to the remote music of the stars, which only she seems to hear. She has a forbidden love of which she dares not speak, and a longing for wild, empty places. Her one true friend is a sanguine, seventy-seven-year-old wood-carver, Alejandro Jaramillo. Alejandro has been carving angels ever since he was summoned to do so at the age of ten. These two unlikely friends share one thing: a sense of having been called to something that lifts them towards an experience of the sacred. But when Octavia is involved in a life-threatening accident, and Alejandro begins to have dreams in which thousands of angels fall away from him into a bottomless abyss, they are both forced to question everything they have come to assume about themselves and their place in the world. So begins a voyage of discovery on which silence and dark music, new love and ancient landscapes will test their resolve to inhabit their own, inimitable lives. In prose that is both refreshingly muscular and hauntingly lyrical, Grenfell Fairhead invites us to examine what it means to grow up and truly belong, but also―even more crucially―what it could mean to grow down into one’s own center, learning the slow, fierce discipline of paying attention to each fleeting moment.
