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 en el otro extremo 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 cetáceos por parte de una banda de modernos corsarios.

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: El apocalipsis ha obsesionado a gente de tantas culturas y épocas que solo cabe decir que viene sucediendo hace demasiado tiempo. Pero pocas oportunidades fueron tan propicias para que el imaginario colectivo albergara pronósticos de una catástrofe definitiva como aquel 2012 en el que Ignacio Padilla publicó este ensayo. Hermano mayor de su otro libro consagrado al miedo (El legado de los monstruos), La industria del fin del mundo se ocupa del "combustible pánico" que nos mueve y de las tendencias milenaristas en la civilización global. Quizás lo más jugoso del periplo llegue, cómo no, en los últimos capítulos: una reflexión sobre qué ocurre cuando el final ya pasó. Ignacio Padilla (Ciudad de México 1968 - Querétaro, 2016) fue un escritor de novelas, crónicas, cuentos y ensayos. Incursionó también en la literatura infantil. Ocupó los cargos de Director de la Biblioteca Vasconcelos, miembro de la Academia Mexicana de la Lengua y diplomático. Su obra, multipremiada, abarca títulos como Arte y olvido del terremoto, La catedral de los ahogados y La industria del fin del mundo, además de otros textos que giran alrededor de autores como Paul Bowles y Miguel de Cervantes.

Sin embargo, todos estamos de acuerdo en que algo está por suceder. ¿Qué crees que sea? La imaginación humana ha dado pie a un sinfin de películas, libros y mucho más. En este libro, los personajes viven cosas diferentes: mientras que unos experimentan un inicio; otros, un fin o un cambio en su mundo. ¿Crees que pueda suceder algo así?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un viaje de crecimiento a través de los ojos de Inés, una niña de seis años en la Colombia de finales del siglo XX. "Era Inés planta ornamental. Inés mascota. Inés animal de porcelana, perdida entre los infinitos rincones de la casa y sus silencios". Inés tiene seis años, ha perdido los dientes y le teme al fin del mundo más que a nada. Una mañana estalla una bomba y en medio del caos encuentra a María, una niña con la que finalmente puede compartir el universo adulto en el que vive. Pero el principio del fin es inminente: pronto celebrará su séptimo cumpleaños y su vida está rota. La crítica ha dicho: "Para mostrar la vida desolada de Inés, esa niñita de seis años que mide el tiempo por cada uno de los dientes que va perdiendo, Gloria Susana Esquivel acude a recrear una mirada: la hiperbólica, fragmentada, fabuladora, que sólo se tiene en la infancia, irrecuperable; y un lenguaje: metafórico, profuso, deliberadamente artificioso, que salva a Animales del fin del mundo de caer en un naturalismo ingenuo o un aburrido realismo. Lo que va emergiendo es una grieta dolorosa, la que separa el mundo egoísta, triste, a menudo fracasado o patético, de los adultos, del corazón anhelante de amor de un ser humano que va perdiendo, dolorosamente y para siempre, la piel de la inocencia". Piedad Bonnett "La pequeña Inés vive con su madre y sus abuelos, temerosa de que el fin del mundo llegue en cualquier momento e irrumpa en la casa desde el exterior: con un meteorito, con el congelamiento del Sol. Ese miedo va desapareciendo mientras la niña aprende que el fin del mundo es permanente y que lo provocan una y otra vez quienes la aman: los adultos que, al verla jugar, no entienden que ahí, en esos juegos, ella está creando, fundando un mundo propio que la resguarde -y los salve a todos- de la extinción. De la mano de Inés, el lector recuerda que la revelación del mundo llega con la revelación de la tristeza. Pero en Animales del fin del mundo, esa tristeza se resignifica con el descubrimiento del lenguaje, que crece y florece de manera incesante a lo largo de las páginas. Una novela tan ocurrente como conmovedora, tan divertida y seria como los juegos de la infancia". Giuseppe Caputo

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the world is a seemingly interminable topic Ð at least, of course, until it happens. Environmental catastrophe and planetary apocalypse are subjects of enduring fascination and, as ethnographic studies show, human cultures have approached them in very different ways. Indeed, in the face of the growing perception of the dire effects of global warming, some of these visions have been given a new lease on life. Information and analyses concerning the human causes and the catastrophic consequences of the planetary ‘crisis’ have been accumulating at an ever-increasing rate, mobilising popular opinion as well as academic reflection. In this book, philosopher Déborah Danowski and anthropologist Eduardo Viveiros de Castro offer a bold overview and interpretation of these current discourses on ‘the end of the world’, reading them as thought experiments on the decline of the West’s anthropological adventure Ð that is, as attempts, though not necessarily intentional ones, at inventing a mythology that is adequate to the present. This work has important implications for the future development of ecological practices and it will appeal to a broad audience interested in contemporary anthropology, philosophy, and environmentalism.

Book excerpt: In Creature Discomfort: Fauna-criticism, Ethics, and the Representation of Animals in Spanish American Fiction and Poetry, Scott M. DeVries uncovers a tradition in Spanish American literature where animal-ethical representations anticipate many of the most pressing concerns from present debates in animal studies. The author documents moments from the corpus that articulate long-standing positions such as a defense of animal rights or advocacy for liberationism, that engage in literary philosophical meditations concerning mind theory and animal sentience, and that anticipate current ideas from Critical Animal Studies including the rejection of hierarchical differentiations between the categories human and nonhuman. Creature Discomfort innovates the notion of “fauna-criticism” as a new literary approach within animal studies; this kind of analysis emphasizes the reframing of literary history to expound animal ethical positions from literary texts, both those that have been considered canonical as well as those that have long been neglected. In this study, DeVries employs fauna-criticism to examine nonhuman sentience, animal interiority, and other ethical issues such as the livestock and pet industries, circuses, zoos, hunting, and species extinction in fictional narrative and poetry from the nineteenth century, modernista, Regional, indigenista, and contemporary periods of Spanish American literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Middles Ages, the edges of one's world could represent different meanings. On the one hand, they might have been situated in far-away regions, mainly in the east and north, that one most often only knew from hearsay and which were inhabited by strange beings: humans with their faces on their chest, without a mouth, or with dog heads. On the other hand, the edges of one's world could just mean the borders of the community where one lived and that one sometimes might not have had the possibility to cross during one's whole life.In this volume specialists from eight European countries offer their ideas about different edges of the medieval world and contribute to a discussion that has been increasing greatly in Medieval Studies in recent times.
