About this listen
Mario Jiménez, joven pescador, decide abandonar su oficio para convertirse en cartero de isla Negra, donde la única persona que recibe y envía correspondencia es el poeta Pablo Neruda. A través de esta trama tan original como seductora, el autor logra un intenso retrato de la convulsa década de los setenta en Chile, así como una cautivadora historia de amor y una poética recreación de la vida de Pablo Neruda. Esta novela, traducida a veinticinco idiomas, es ya un clásico de las letras universales, y la película basada en ella fue nominada a cinco Oscar.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help. Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year. When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 339
There's no place like home for the holidays ... especially for Lesley Carver. Life in the big city just wasn't her jam and now she's back in Hickory Falls, working at the family diner and helping her mom after she took a tumble. Lesley longs to build a life here, working at the cafe, selling her handmade ornaments and ... er, apparently reviving her high school crush on her best friend’s older brother. Only one problem, her mom wants her to leave Hickory Falls far behind.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story4 out of 5 stars 216
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Please, Mister Postman
¡Ah, pero que gusto es encontrarse con ese Skármeta más maduro, más viejo, menos aventurero en su prosa, que se siente más cómodo con su simpleza, aquella que viste también de gala para que pueda lucirse como el poema más brillante de toda la colección!
"Ardiente paciencia" (¡pero que titulazo!) es una novela que no reparada en detalles, no se interesa en los mezquinos pasos que hay que dar, sino que solamente se preocupa de trasladarnos rápidamente de un momento a otro, porque así es la vida: aunque disfrutamos esos pequeños placeres mundanos, lo que finalmente se queda con nosotros son esos grandes momentos que podemos volver a saborear como si hubieran sucedido ayer como los buenos animales de memoria que somos. Por lo mismo es que la novela no dura más que un soplido de viento, lo que se resalta gracias a los diálogos tan lúdicos que hay entre el cartero y el poeta, los que estan bañados de cierta nostalgia amistosa, esa que uno saborea del recuerdo de una conversación antigua con un amigo o un familiar. Esto mismo transforma al contexto en que se desarrolla la historia en una simple anécdota, cuando en la oscuridad se trata de algo mucho más perverso y que tiene completos efectos en los personajes; estamos ante personas que no podrían estar más alejadas del panorama político del país, pero que arrastran los efectos de este por estar "manchados" de ciertos colores. Una resumida tragedia shakespeariana contemporánea.
En cortas palabras, Una historia simple de un escritor simple con personajes simples en tiempos difíciles.
