Radiante, luminoso. El desierto es un prisma de perros, cardos, polvo y cielo. La China Iron acompaña a Liz, una inglesa que va tras su marido llevado por la leva. Ella, en cambio, no busca a Martín Fierro, ese gaucho que se la ganó en un partido de truco. La China escapa. Y es su viaje exploración: de la textura de la seda, del sabor del té, del sofoco en que estalla el sexo. Descubre palabras. Sonidos nuevos para cosas que antes no existían.

Puerto Rico, 2017. Apenas una semana después de restablecida la electricidad, las noticias alertan de la llegada de un segundo huracán, más potente que el anterior. Propensos a la inexactitud y la exageración, los reportes meteorológicos esta vez parecen ser reales. Han pasado muchos años desde que un huracán con un potencial tan destructivo azotó la Isla. Si Irma la había dejado una semana sin luz, ¿qué podrá esperarse ahora de María?

Pocas voces tienen tanta autoridad para hablar de feminismo e identidad como Najat El Hachmi. Más allá de su condición de hija de familia musulmana marroquí, su mundo narrativo es un mundo de mujeres. Con este conocimiento, se ha formado una opinión sobre lo que supone ser feminista hoy. Por eso ha escrito este ensayo que ahora nos narra ella misma en audiolibro, para hacer hincapié en la crucial importancia de alcanzar la igualdad entre sexos en todas las culturas y etnias, y nos alerta del peligro de supeditar el feminismo a otras causas.

Un individuo, encarnación pura del mal y la crueldad, que el narrador de esta historia, el alter ego de Bolaño y perenne detective salvaje Arturo Belano, se cuida de desmenuzar.

Cuando Yuri Santacruz asistió al nombramiento como canciller de Adolf Hitler, no podía imaginar lo mucho que cambiaría su vida en Berlín. Había llegado allí unos meses atrás, después de haber huido, junto con parte de su familia, de San Petersburgo, asfixiados por una revolución que los había dejado sin nada. A Yuri también lo privó de su madre y su hermano pequeño, a quienes las autoridades rusas no permitieron la salida del país. Ya en Berlín, su sentido de la justicia lo impulsará a defender a un joven comunista agredido por las tropas de asalto de Hitler.

Story
La familia de Pascual Duarte vio la luz en 1942 y tuvo un enorme impacto en el panorama literario español del momento. Primer libro de Camilo José Cela, supuso un valioso punto de partida para la narrativa española de posguerra. La vida trágica de su arquetípico protagonista, gobernada por la más salvaje violencia, era un comentario indirecto sobre la barbarie padecida por los españoles durante la recién concluida Guerra Civil, al tiempo que daba carta de naturaleza a una tendencia literaria renovadora, luego conocida como «tremendismo».

Story
"Los pazos de Ulloa" se sitúa en un recóndito y salvaje paraje de Galicia. La llegada a esta localidad de Julián, un sacerdote delicado y sensible, tendrá imprevistas consecuencias. El marqués de Ulloa, rudo y pasional, se ve obligado a contraer matrimonio con Nucha, una señorita de ciudad para quien el ambiente de los pazos es una pesadilla. Sabel, la criada de perversa belleza y que ha dado un hijo bastardo al marqués, es la figura opuesta a Nucha.
Publisher's summary
Es esta la historia de Natalia, conocida como «Colometa», representación femenina de aquellas mujeres a las que les tocó vivir un período de la historia de España especialmente duro y cruel: la Guerra Civil y la posguerra. Así, Colometa verá partir y morir a sus seres queridos, pasará hambre y miseria y se verá muchas veces incapaz de sacar adelante a sus hijos. Hundida en un matrimonio infeliz con un hombre egoísta, renuncia a su propia identidad y cede todo el protagonismo a su esposo, aceptando los convencionalismos de la época. Pero la vida y las circunstancias obligarán a Colometa y al resto de los personajes a crecer...
Crónica fiel de la Barcelona de posguerra, este libro en apariencia menudo es una joya literaria, y sin duda una de las mejores novelas españolas del siglo XX y la obra maestra, según la crítica, de la literatura femenina catalana.
La plaza del Diamante se publicó por primera vez en 1962 en Barcelona. Desde entonces se ha traducido a más de treinta idiomas, ha sido llevada al cine y al teatro y se ha convertido en un clásico contemporáneo indiscutible.
Critic reviews
«La plaza del Diamante es, a mi juicio, la más bella novela que se ha publicado en España después de la Guerra Civil. Mi deslumbramiento fue apenas comparable al que me había causado la primera lectura de Pedro Páramo, de Juan Rulfo, aunque los dos libros no tienen en común sino la transparencia de su belleza».
Gabriel García Márquez.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

They said write what you know so that's what I did. I wrote dirty, I wrote erotic, I wrote the truth. And then they called me a liar. But it's not me who's lying, it's them. Our story isn't for everyone. It's not even for us. So if you're looking for the fairy tale and the stupid prince on his dumb white horse, move along. You've got a hold of the wrong book. This is not your story, this is not your life, and this is not your opportunity to dip your frightened little toe into the dark pool of water and "try new things" and then pull it out and decide... #NotForMe.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Es una de las historias más maravillosas de la literatura.
Desde hace décadas quería escuchar “La plaza del Diamante”. La narración y la historia son extraordinarias y conmovedoras.
