Crea personajes que no caducarán, con historias eternas mil veces referidas. Pero no, no me malinterpretéis, no es que te parezca que son cuentos que ya han relatado otros, no. Se trata de plasmar temas como los celos, el deseo, el miedo, el hastío, la avaricia, el amor… temas que acompañan al ser humano a lo largo de su vida; temas como he dicho presentes mil veces en mil cuentos antes. Pero Alexis envuelve estos temas de una forma sutil, elegante, inteligente. Creo que esta es la palabra clave que destilan sus relatos, inteligencia. No hay exabruptos, no hay trucos, no hay prisas. Las historias se desarrollan y caen por su peso, unas con un final inesperado; otras con un devenir previsible pero no por ello exento de ingenio.

Alegóricamente, las páginas de este poemario gotean matices y texturas que confieren a la obra un carácter muy personal. En cada gota salitrosa cristalizan ideas expresadas en un lenguaje rico pero no pretencioso, que nos ofrece una visión nada complaciente del devenir de los días que conformaron un pasado que huele a brea, a anhelo y decepción, a cicatrices que engalanan el cuarteado mapa de la nostalgia. Y allá donde las barcas descansan en la arena, hay un tendedero del que cuelgan versos secándose al sol.

Héctor ha dado el paso más difícil para un padre: desprenderse de su hijo. Caían los últimos días del mes de agosto de 1937, cuando en el puerto de El Musel un barco aguardaba para poner a salvo de la guerra a unos niños, rumbo a la Unión Soviética. Lo que sería en principio aquella separación momentánea de algunos meses, acabó convirtiéndose en toda una vida. Adéntrate en una novela implacable que impone su ley a golpe de página, y en la que el autor utiliza con maestría sus dotes literarias sobre unos hechos reales, acontecidos en un espacio y tiempo muy concretos de nuestra historia más cercana, como lo fueron la guerra civil española y la segunda guerra mundial. Operación Matrioska se convierte, nunca mejor dicho, en una montaña rusa donde el lector sentirá a flor de piel la amistad, las tramas de espionaje, la fidelidad a los ideales y el amor.

A never-before-translated collection by the bestselling author of Suite Française Written between 1934 and 1942, these ten gem-like stories mine the same terrain of Némirovsky's bestselling novel Suite Française: a keen eye for the details of social class; the tensions between mothers and daughters, husbands and wives; the manners and mannerisms of the French bourgeoisie; questions of religion and personal identity. Moving from the drawing rooms of pre-war Paris to the lives of men and women in wartime France, here we find the beautiful work of a writer at the height of her tragically short career.

"Little Billee is a young English painter with great talent. He and his friends Taffy and the Laird share a studio in a Quartier Latin neighborhood full of artists and musicians, including a German-Polish music teacher named Svengali. The group become acquainted with an artists' model named Trilby, who was orphaned as a child and who works to support her little brother and herself. Trilby is lively, charming, unpretentious, and beautiful, and soon Little Billee is madly in love. When his mother learns that Little Billee intends to marry an artists' model (nude models were almost as socially unacceptable as protitutes) she travels to Paris and tells Trilby that such a marriage would mean ruin for Billee and his family. Trilby promises that she will never see Little Billee again. Soon afterward, Trilby vanishes, leaving Billee sick and distraught. Many years later, Billee and his friends hear of a singer called "La Svengali" who has astonished all of Europe. By attending one of her performances, they learn that "La Svengali" is the wife of the music teacher they knew in the Quartier Latin, trained by him to sing with more technical mastery than anyone has ever heard. When "La Svengali" appears on stage, they see that she is none other than Trilby. Her singing moves the audience to tears, though everyone notices that she moves stiffly and strangely and that her face is as blank as an automaton's. Not until Svengali dies suddenly during a concert is Trilby set free from the hypnotic spell that has controlled her for years.""--Allreaders.com.

The Polish Boxer covers a vast landscape of human experience while enfolding a search for origins: a grandson tries to make sense of his grandfather's past and the story behind his numbered tattoo; a Serbian classical pianist longs for his forbidden heritage; a Mayan poet is torn between his studies and filial obligations; a striking young Israeli woman seeks answers in Central America; a university professor yearns for knowledge that he can't find in books and discovers something unexpected at a Mark Twain conference. Drawn to what lies beyond the range of reason, they all reach for the beautiful and fleeting, whether through humour, music, poetry, or unspoken words. Across his encounters with each of them, the narrator - a Guatemalan literature professor and writer named Eduardo Halfon - pursues his most enigmatic subject: himself. Mapping the geography of identity in a world scarred by a legacy of violence and exile, The Polish Boxer marks the debut of a major new Latin American voice in English.

«Viajar puede servir para mucho o para nada. Eso depende de cómo y por qué se viaje. Yo he viajado mucho; en ocasiones, para escapar, para borrarme y tratar de rehacerme. Ese es, por ejemplo, el viaje de este libro», dice José Alejandro Adamuz. Un viaje que fue, pero que aún no ha terminado y en el que la vuelta cobra tanta importancia como la partida. José Alejandro Adamuz recorre y recuerda geografías latinoamericanas con una intención: encontrar palabras –propias y ajenas– con las que reconocerse en el espejo, combatir el olvido y poder narrar el mundo y sus historias. Inspirado por exploradores como Darwin o Humboldt y escritores como Bruce Chatwin, Julio Cortázar, Roberto Bolaño o Rebecca Solnit, el autor traza un recorrido poliédrico y fragmentado en el que se mezclan literatura, arte, antropología, confesiones, miedos y celebraciones. Un libro ágil, contemporáneo, divertido, audaz, atrevido que, a través de fragmentos, historias de otros, recuerdos y anticipaciones, nos acerca a la emoción original del viaje.

ñRemember that weÍre in the U.S.,î Dante Celestino is told when his daughter Emmita runs away. Friends and neighbors warn him that in the United States itÍs not considered so unusual for a fifteen-year-old girl to run away. But Dante had counseled Emmita to date only Spanish-speaking Hispanic boys, and never anyone who joins gangs or deals drugs. Yet she ignores her fatherÍs advice andright in the middle of her quinceaÐeraruns away with a tattooed Latino who doesnÍt speak Spanish and rides a lowrider motorcycle. And to complicate matters, Dante is in the U.S. illegally, making it difficult to report the girlÍs disappearance to the police. So begins DanteÍs odyssey. Accompanied by a lame donkey named Virgilio and the voice of his dead wife, he sets out for Las Vegas, where EmmitaÍs boyfriendor abductor, as Dante considers himsupposedly lives. On a journey filled with the joy of music and the pain of flashbacks from his small-town life and marital bliss in Mexico, Dante encounters a series of eccentric characters: Josefino and Mariana, known to radio listeners as the Noble Couple, who change their listenersÍ luck in an instant; Juan Pablo, a young man who uses his computer genius to rob a Las Vegas casino so he can pay for his college education; and the Pilgrim, a famous balladeer who has crossed the border via underground tunnels so many times that even years later he smells faintly of dirt and death. In this bittersweet tour de force originally published in Spanish as El Corrido de Dante, the First and Third Worlds join hands, and Mexican pueblo life and Internet post-modernity dance together in one of the most memorable fables to shed light on issues such as immigration, cultural assimilation, and the future of the United States with its ever-increasing Latino population.
