NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A coming-of-age classic about a young girl growing up in Chicago • Acclaimed by critics, beloved by readers of all ages, taught in schools and universities alike, and translated around the world—from the winner of the 2019 PEN/Nabokov Award for Achievement in International Literature. “Cisneros draws on her rich [Latino] heritage...and seduces with precise, spare prose, creat[ing] unforgettable characters we want to lift off the page. She is not only a gifted writer, but an absolutely essential one.” —The New York Times Book Review The House on Mango Street is one of the most cherished novels of the last fifty years. Readers from all walks of life have fallen for the voice of Esperanza Cordero, growing up in Chicago and inventing for herself who and what she will become. “In English my name means hope,” she says. “In Spanish it means too many letters. It means sadness, it means waiting." Told in a series of vignettes—sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes joyous—Cisneros’s masterpiece is a classic story of childhood and self-discovery and one of the greatest neighborhood novels of all time. Like Sinclair Lewis’s Main Street or Toni Morrison’s Sula, it makes a world through people and their voices, and it does so in language that is poetic and direct. This gorgeous coming-of-age novel is a celebration of the power of telling one’s story and of being proud of where you're from.

Chilean writer Isabel Allende’s classic novel is both a richly symbolic family saga and the riveting story of an unnamed Latin American country’s turbulent history. In a triumph of magic realism, Allende constructs a spirit-ridden world and fills it with colorful and all-too-human inhabitants. The Trueba family’s passions, struggles, and secrets span three generations and a century of violent social change, culminating in a crisis that brings the proud and tyrannical patriarch and his beloved granddaughter to opposite sides of the barricades. Against a backdrop of revolution and counterrevolution, Allende brings to life a family whose private bonds of love and hatred are more complex and enduring than the political allegiances that set them at odds. The House of the Spirits not only brings another nation’s history thrillingly to life, but also makes its people’s joys and anguishes wholly our own.

Los Ensayos completos de Manuel Rojas reúnen, por primera vez y en cuatro volúmenes, todos los escritos breves del afamado escritor. Se desvelan aquí cerca de mil doscientos ensayos de su archivo personal, en su mayoría inéditos o publicados en diarios y revistas de la época. Este libro viene a complementar y enriquecer el conocimiento de su extensa y profunda obra literaria, vigente en Chile y elogiada en toda Sudamérica. En él se descubre un Rojas multifacético: polemista, crítico, ensayista, columnista, cronista e incluso reportero. En suma, un acabado periodista e intelectual, que pone su honesta y libre mirada en todos los temas que lo conmueven: sus pasiones políticas y literarias, su amor por el pueblo de Chile y su cultura, los pájaros, la naturaleza y las ciencias. Reunidos y editados por el nieto de Manuel Rojas, sus ensayos abarcan casi la totalidad del siglo xx: desde sus primeras proclamas aparecidas en el periódico anarquista La Batalla, en 1912, hasta su última columna, escrita durante el gobierno de Salvador Allende para el diario Clarín, en octubre de 1972, solo algunos meses antes de su muerte y del golpe militar de 1973. Su escritura se mueve por un universo de temas y situaciones, recuerdos –propios y ajenos–, algunas claves de su propia obra y siempre sus lecturas. Narra su formación como escritor, sus primeros cómplices en el oficio, la formación del efímero «Círculo de los Siete» y su humilde –y manuscrito– único número de la Revista Bohemia. […] Registra también sus andanzas extranjeras, su experiencia como profesor en universidades norteamericanas en las que, al cabo de un par de vistas y destinos, demuele prejuicios y absorbe la experiencia. Rojas toma la palabra, replica pullas y querellas literarias, propone salidas y llegadas éticas y estéticas; y hasta recibe una petición de bautizar con su nombre la biblioteca de la cárcel pública de San Fernando. Desmenuza obras y autores –los clásicos, los contemporáneos, los compatriotas–, a la vez que se pregunta por el futuro de la literatura nacional, por su proyección y trascendencia, y advierte: «Nos falta personalidad en la literatura, personalidad de pensamiento, personalidad de espíritu y casi personalidad de expresión». Del prólogo de Felipe Reyes F., «El oficio de la palabra».

A chilling novel about the nightmare of a corrupt and brutal dictatorship. The star of Roberto Bolano's hair-raising novel Distant Star is Alberto Ruiz-Tagle, an air force pilot who exploits the 1973 coup to launch his own version of the New Chilean Poetry, a multimedia enterprise involving sky-writing, poetry, torture, and photo exhibitions. For our unnamed narrator, who first encounters this "star" in a college poetry workshop, Ruiz-Tagle becomes the silent hand behind every evil act in the darkness of Pinochet's regime. The narrator, unable to stop himself, tries to track Ruiz-Tagle down, and sees signs of his activity over and over again. A corrosive, mocking humor sparkles within Bolano's darkest visions of Chile under Pinochet. In Bolano's world there's a big graveyard and there's a big graveyard laugh. (He once described his novel By Night in Chile as "a tale of terror, a situation comedy, and a combination pastoral-gothic novel.") Many Chilean authors have written about the "bloody events of the early Pinochet years, the abductions and murders," Richard Eder commented in the The New York Times: "None has done it in so dark and glittering a fashion as Roberto Bolano."

Realmente percibimos con claridad lo cotidiano o, precisamente, por su cotidianidad, tendemos a unificar todas nuestras sensaciones en el manto uniforme de la oscura monotonia, monocromatizando los brillantes colores del arco iris? Amor, terror, fantasia, locura, infancia, vejez, ignorancia, creencias, posesion, ilusion... cotidianidad. De esto trata este libro: de historias cotidianas, diferenciadas, valoradas en toda su riqueza. Historias sencillas, como las de su primer libro, Ellos, y otros relatos. Historias directas, escritas, una vez mas, con una sintaxis correcta y un comedimiento en el uso de adjetivos que provocan ligereza en su lectura, al estilo de los cuentos populares de tradicion oral.

A USA Today Bestseller Inspired by fascinating, true, yet little-known events during World War II, The Long Flight Home is a testament to the power of courage in our darkest hours—a moving, masterfully written story of love and sacrifice. It is September 1940—a year into the war—and as German bombs fall on Britain, fears grow of an impending invasion. Enemy fighter planes blacken the sky around the Epping Forest home of Susan Shepherd and her grandfather, Bertie. After losing her parents to influenza as a child, Susan found comfort in raising homing pigeons with Bertie. All her birds are extraordinary to Susan—loyal, intelligent, beautiful—but none more so than Duchess. Hatched from an egg that Susan incubated in a bowl under her grandfather’s desk lamp, Duchess shares a special bond with Susan and an unusual curiosity about the human world. Thousands of miles away in Buxton, Maine, young crop-duster pilot Ollie Evans decides to join Britain’s Royal Air Force. His quest brings him to Epping and the National Pigeon Service, where Susan is involved in a new, covert mission to air-drop hundreds of homing pigeons in German-occupied France. Many will not survive. Those that do will bring home crucial information. Soon a friendship between Ollie and Susan deepens, but when his plane is downed behind enemy lines, both know how remote the chances of reunion must be. Yet Duchess will become an unexpected lifeline, relaying messages between Susan and Ollie as war rages on—and proving, at last, that hope is never truly lost. “Hlad adeptly drives home the devastating civilian cost of the war.” —Booklist

Many consider ‘Anna Karenina’ to be the greatest novel of all time. A profound and exhaustive exploration of Russian life and the human condition. Tolstoy creates one of the most complex heroines in literature as he details Anna falling a conscious victim to her own passion. The dramatic scope of the story, the memorable characters, and the wealth of emotions that Tolstoy displays render ‘Anna Karenina’ much more than a novel, but rather an unmissable chronicle of the human condition that transcends both space and time. A perfect delve into Russian literature for those who enjoyed Christy Lefteri’s ‘The Beekeeper of Aleppo’. Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) was a Russian author. His focus was novels, but he also wrote many short stories, alongside essays and plays in his later life. Deemed the master of realistic fiction, his novel ‘Anna Karenina’ (1875-77) is considered to be the greatest novel of all time. Some of his other notable works include ‘War and Peace' (1865-69), ‘The Kingdom of God is Within You’ (1894), and his final novel ‘Resurrection’ (1899). His frank examinations of the world around him are unmissable for fans of Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Anton Chekhov, and Virginia Woolf, who was openly inspired by Tolstoy’s ideas about social class.
