About this listen
Irónica, desencantada y llena de humor, La tumba relata la vida de un adolescente extraviado.
"La tumba es una de las obras que liquidarán el pasado. Una novela extraordinaria." (Juan Rulfo)
Una de las obras esenciales de la literatura mexicana del siglo XX, publicada en 1964 y considerada la primera novela de la literatura de la Onda en Latinoamérica.
Irónica, desencantada y llena de humor, La tumba relata la vida de un adolescente extraviado. Novela de iniciación que inauguró una nueva etapa de la literatura mexicana, en la cual los jóvenes, su lenguaje y su furia tienen un peso central y decisivo.
"Un testimonio sincero, espontáneo, que ayuda a comprender el fenómeno de una adolescencia en búsqueda. Un libro que abre signos de admiración para un nuevo novelista." (Vicente Leñero)
"Un escupitajo a las buenas conciencias que inventaron rebeldes sin causa...el libro lúcido y emocionante de una generación." (Gustavo Sainz)
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Novela de amor de una intensidad sobrecogedora, aborda con su mordaz sentido del humor la distancia entre México y Estados Unidos, el amor, la ira y la complejidad de las relaciones de pareja y el antimachismo. Con una prosa ágil y desenfadada, José Agustín traza el destino de Eligio y Susana en un mundo gris, superficial, aunque capaz de torcer el rumbo de cualquiera. El retrato de los personajes, a todas luces entrañables, y la manera como la prosa se extiende sobre la geografía y la relación amorosa, hacen de Ciudades desiertas una gran novela.

De perfil es un rito de iniciación gozoso, agresivo, desenfadado, lleno de ironía pero también de rigor y de esperanza. Su lenguaje es una necesidad de contenido: como el mundo que aquí se despliega es el de la juventud, de quienes empiezan a erguirse por sus propios pies—y con la pequeña ayuda de sus amigos—ante la existencia para revolucionarla o enajenarse en ella, las formas y las palabras son jóvenes también, muestran una vitalidad feroz y un propósito firme de revitalizar el arte.

México es un país racista que niega serlo. Con argumentos como “No es racismo, sino clasismo”, “Acá somos todos mestizos” o “Nunca hubo un sistema segregacionista como en Estados Unidos” negamos que hemos perpetuado la discriminación durante generaciones. Tenoch Huerta, actor de reconocido prestigio y portavoz del debate y la lucha antirracista en México desde hace años, se encarga de rebatir estos y otros mitos acerca del racismo en Orgullo prieto.

Amanda ha tenido siempre una mirada aguda e irónica acerca de sí misma y de quienes la rodean: sabe estar sola y acompañada. Sin embargo, en este libro nos revela dos aspectos de su ser menos conocido: su destreza informal para la fabulación: sabe relatar historias breves por medio de un ritmo más seductor que acosador. Y, por otra parte, abandona la guerra cotidiana que libra a cada momento de su vida como artista popular y nos propone a un ser menos glamuroso, pero más humano.

Nos gustan las mentiras. Tenemos la facultad de mentir, la capacidad de construir mentiras y la maravillosa inclinación de creer en ellas. Ese es el inicio y la premisa de Falsificar la historia. Un recorrido de miles de años por la historia, la filosofía y la religión; una aventura a través de la psicología individual y la de las masas, un viaje que no deja de moverse entre la realidad y los mitos, y que nos lleva a cuestionarnos TODO LO QUE HEMOS CREÍDO.

A bad best man’s speech can ruin a wedding. Why do we plan every detail of a perfect day and then give the groom’s idiot best friend five minutes of total power? Enter Nate (Glen Powell), a speechwriter-for-hire who helps people write incredible best man speeches. To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

Alice's journey begins as all good journeys do: hitting on the sales guy at REI. After a tumultuous breakup, a quick career transition, family upheaval, and a sobriety journey that didn't fix her life quite as much as she expected it to, Alice decides that the only way to solve all her problems is to hike the Pacific Crest Trail. But as she begins preparing for the months-long quest, she realizes the answers she's seeking might not be on top of a snow-covered mountain. Especially since she just learned there was snow in California.

Story4 out of 5 stars 274
Alice's journey begins as all good journeys do: hitting on the sales guy at REI. After a tumultuous breakup, a quick career transition, family upheaval, and a sobriety journey that didn't fix her life quite as much as she expected it to, Alice decides that the only way to solve all her problems is to hike the Pacific Crest Trail. But as she begins preparing for the months-long quest, she realizes the answers she's seeking might not be on top of a snow-covered mountain. Especially since she just learned there was snow in California.

He is one of the longest-running cast members on Saturday Night Live, an American comedy genius renowned for his spot-on sendups of politicians and celebrities. But off-stage, Darrell Hammond’s life was anything but a joke. In CRAY, a special audio performance captured live onstage at Audible’s Minetta Lane Theatre, Hammond brings to life his acclaimed memoir, God, If You're Not Up There, I'm F*cked: Tales of Stand-Up, Saturday Night Live and Other Mind-Altering Mayhem.

Breakfast of Champions (1973) provides frantic, scattershot satire and a collage of Vonnegut's obsessions. His recurring cast of characters and American landscape was perhaps the most controversial of his canon; it was felt by many at the time to be a disappointing successor to Slaughterhouse-Five, which had made Vonnegut's literary reputation.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Gran obra
Hace años en la universidad lo había leído, al principio la voz no me atrapó lo sentí un tanto exagerado pero le di otra oportunidad y terminé disfrutandolo.
