George Hart sólo quiere servir a su patria y honrar a su familia. Pero eso no es fácil para un joven hijo de una actriz mulata y de un hombre del que sólo sabe que ocupa una importante posición social y que le ha puesto unas durísimas condiciones para acceder a una cuantiosa suma de dinero que le proporcionará tranquilidad tanto a él como a su madre. A pesar de los obstáculos que su origen y el color de su piel plantean, Hart consigue iniciar una prometedora carrera en el ejército. Hasta que debido a un asesinato más o menos fortuito, se ve obligado a viajar a Sudáfrica, donde pretende entrar en el negocio de las explotaciones mineras. Sin embargo, al estallar las guerras zulús, decide alistarse voluntario, sin saber que ello le obligará a luchar contra su propia familia.

De nuevo en Gran Bretaña tras su heroica intervención en las guerras zulúes, el oficial George Hart, a quien aún atormentan sus dudas acerca de quién es su padre, es convocado a una enigmática reunión en la que se encuentra con el mismísimo Primer Ministro. Pero no descubrirá todavía quién es su progenitor. Debido al color de su piel, ha sido elegido para llevar a cabo una misión secreta en Afganistán, donde los servicios secretos británicos han descubierto un plan del fundamentalismo islámico para expulsar a las fuerzas occidentales, lo que pone en serio riesgo los intereses británicos en la India, la joya de la corona. La misión de Hart consiste en robar uno de los símbolos más importantes del islamismo, la Capa del Profeta. Una vez en Afganistán, se enfrenta a una muy arriesgada aventura, pero lo que le pondrá entre la espada y la pared será empezar a pensar por sí mismo y plantearse un irresoluble dilema entre mantenerse fiel a su conciencia o ser leal la Corona.

First published in Rome in 1535, Leone Ebreo's Dialogues of Love is one of the most important texts of the European Renaissance. Well known in the Italian academies of the sixteenth century, its popularity quickly spread throughout Europe, with numerous reprintings and translations into French, Latin Spanish, and Hebrew. It attracted a diverse audience that included noblemen, courtesans, artists, poets, intellectuals, and philosophers. More than just a bestseller, the work exerted a deep influence over the centuries on figures as diverse as Giordano Bruno, John Donne, Miguelde Cervantes, and Baruch Spinoza. Leone's Dialogues consists of three conversations - 'On Love and Desire,' 'On the Universality of Love,' and 'Onthe Origin of Love' - that take place over a period of three subsequent days.They are organized in a dialogic format, much like a theatrical representation, of a conversation between a man, Philo, who plays the role of the lover andteacher, and a woman, Sophia, the beloved and pupil. The discussion covers a wide range of topics that have as their common denominator the idea of Love. Through the dialogue, the author explores many different points of view and complex philosophical ideas. Grounded in a distinctly Jewish tradition, and drawing on Neoplatonic philosophical structures and Arabic sources, the work offers a useful compendium of classical and contemporary thought, yet was not incompatible with Christian doctrine. Despite the unfinished state and somewhat controversial, enigmatic nature of Ebreo's famous text, it remains one of the most significant and influential works in the history of Western thought. This new, expertly translated and annotated English edition takes into account the latest scholarship and provides aninvaluable resource for today's readers.

From the winner of the first Lannan Prize for Cultural Freedom, a bitingly funny, kaleidoscopic vision of the first world through the eyes of the third Eduardo Galeano, author of the incomparable Memory of Fire Trilogy, combines a novelist's intensity, a poet's lyricism, a journalist's fearlessness, and the strong judgments of an engaged historian. Now his talents are richly displayed in Upside Down, an eloquent, passionate, sometimes hilarious exposé of our first-world privileges and assumptions. In a series of lesson plans and a "program of study" about our beleaguered planet, Galeano takes the reader on a wild trip through the global looking glass. From a master class in "The Impunity of Power" to a seminar on "The Sacred Car"--with tips along the way on "How to Resist Useless Vices" and a declaration of "The Right to Rave"--he surveys a world unevenly divided between abundance and deprivation, carnival and torture, power and helplessness. We have accepted a reality we should reject, Galeano teaches us, one where machines are more precious than humans, people are hungry, poverty kills, and children toil from dark to dark. A work of fire and charm, Upside Down makes us see the world anew and even glimpse how it might be set right. "Galeano's outrage is tempered by intelligence, an ineradicable sense of humor, and hope." -Los Angeles Times, front page
