The largest rebellion in the history of Spain's American empire—a conflict greater in territory and costlier in lives than the contemporaneous American Revolution—began as a local revolt against colonial authorities in 1780. As an official collector of tribute for the imperial crown, José Gabriel Condorcanqui had seen firsthand what oppressive Spanish rule meant for Peru's Indian population. Adopting the Inca royal name Tupac Amaru, he set events in motion that would transform him into Latin America's most iconic revolutionary figure. Tupac Amaru's political aims were modest at first. He claimed to act on the Spanish king's behalf, expelling corrupt Spaniards and abolishing onerous taxes. But the rebellion became increasingly bloody as it spread throughout Peru and into parts of modern-day Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. By late 1780, Tupac Amaru, his wife Micaela Bastidas, and their followers had defeated the Spanish in numerous battles and gained control over a vast territory. As the rebellion swept through Indian villages to gain recruits and overthrow the Spanish corregidors, rumors spread that the Incas had returned to reclaim their kingdom. Charles Walker immerses readers in the rebellion's guerrilla campaigns, propaganda war, and brutal acts of retribution. He highlights the importance of Bastidas—the key strategist—and reassesses the role of the Catholic Church in the uprising's demise. The Tupac Amaru Rebellion examines why a revolt that began as a multiclass alliance against European-born usurpers degenerated into a vicious caste war—and left a legacy that continues to influence South American politics today.

¿Qué debe América a España y España a América? ¿Desembarcaron soldados españoles en Inglaterra? ¿Quién disparó el cañonazo que le arrancó un brazo a Nelson?... En esta apasionante obra encontrarás todo lo que nunca supiste sobre el mayor Imperio de la historia. Los españoles fueron los primeros en cruzar el Atlántico, los primeros en «descubrir» América, los primeros en circunnavegar el globo, los primeros en crear una moneda aceptada en los cinco continentes, los primeros en organizar una campaña de vacunación de ámbito mundial, los primeros en levantar Catedrales y Universidades en el nuevo mundo, los primeros en excluir de la esclavitud a poblaciones conquistadas… Proezas que han colocado a España entre la media docena de naciones imprescindibles para la historia de la humanidad. Descubra a través de las páginas de este libro acontecimientos, personajes y curiosidades con los cuales el lector puede comprender la inmensidad y fortaleza de ese Imperio cuya bandera, la Cruz de Borgoña, ondeó en barcos, ciudades y castillos situados en todos los rumbos de la rosa de los vientos. Cuando la corona del rey de España era, como dijo Baltasar Gracián, la órbita del sol. ¿Qué habría pasado en las Indias si Felipe el Hermoso no hubiera muerto? ¿Por qué los limones españoles podían vencer a la Royal Navy? ¿Imagina quién consiguió el primer permiso de trabajo por baja maternal para las mujeres en el Nuevo Mundo? ¿Y que el primer hospital fue dirigido por una mujer negra en 1502? «España, bien administrada, es un monstruo desconocido.» Abate Giulio Alberoni, ministro de Felipe V

One of the twentieth century’s enduring works, One Hundred Years of Solitude is a widely beloved and acclaimed novel known throughout the world and the ultimate achievement in a Nobel Prize–winning career. The novel tells the story of the rise and fall of the mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendía family. Rich and brilliant, it is a chronicle of life, death, and the tragicomedy of humankind. In the beautiful, ridiculous, and tawdry story of the Buendía family, one sees all of humanity, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo, one sees all of Latin America. Love and lust, war and revolution, riches and poverty, youth and senility, the variety of life, the endlessness of death, the search for peace and truth—these universal themes dominate the novel. Alternately reverential and comical, One Hundred Years of Solitude weaves the political, personal, and spiritual to bring a new consciousness to storytelling. Translated into dozens of languages, this stunning work is no less than an account of the history of the human race.

An erotic masterpiece of twentieth century fiction - a tale of sensual obsession and bloodlust in eighteenth century Paris 'An astonishing tour de force both in concept and execution' Guardian In eighteenth-century France there lived a man who was one of the most gifted and abominable personages in an era that knew no lack of gifted and abominable personages. His name was Jean-Baptiste Grenouille, and if his name has been forgotten today. It is certainly not because Grenouille fell short of those more famous blackguards when it came to arrogance, misanthropy, immorality, or, more succinctly, wickedness, but because his gifts and his sole ambition were restricted to a domain that leaves no traces in history: to the fleeting realm of scent . . . 'A fantastic tale of murder and twisted eroticism controlled by a disgusted loathing of humanity . .. Clever, stylish, absorbing and well worth reading' Literary Review 'A meditation on the nature of death, desire and decay . . . A remarkable début' Peter Ackroyd, The New York Times Book Review 'Unlike anything else one has read. A phenomenon . . . [It] will remain unique in contemporary literature' Figaro 'An ingenious and totally absorbing fantasy' Daily Telegraph 'Witty, stylish and ferociously absorbing' Observer
