En un pueblo a trescientos kilómetros de cualquier lugar, los destinos de un puñado de personajes se entrelazan en una narración magistral de odio y miedo, pero también de amor y de esperanza. Es el día de San Valentín del año 1976 y el pueblo de Odessa, Texas, está en la cúspide de un boom petrolero. En medio del campo petrolífero, pocos minutos antes del amanecer, Glory Ramírez, de catorce años, logra sacar fuerzas para escapar de su agresor. Atraviesa el campo entre alambres de púas, restos de tuberías rotas y matojos de mezquite hasta llegar a la puerta de Mary Rose Whitehead, cuya vida se ve irremediablemente trastocada no sólo por la crueldad de la que ha sido víctima la niña –bien podría ser su hija– sino por los hechos subsecuentes, que se suman a los relatos de violencia e injusticia cotidianas que por generaciones han sufrido las mujeres de su pueblo. Más allá de describir el contexto histórico de un pueblo sureño, Elizabeth Wetmore nos ofrece un potente debut literario que explora los límites del ser humano. Una novela coral extraordinariamente escrita que nos lleva por las entrañas de las mujeres que la protagonizan. Nacida y criada en West Texas, Elizabeth Wetmore vive con su esposo y su hijo en Chicago. Amor y furia es su primera novela.

Escrito con el inquietante poder emocional de Julia Alvarez, una sorprendente novela debut que explora los efectos persistentes de un brutal crimen en las mujeres de una pequeña ciudad petrolera de Texas en la década de 1970. La misericordia es dificil en un lugar como este . . . Es febrero de 1976, y Odessa, Texas, se encuentra en la cúspide del próximo gran auge petrolero. Mientras que los hombres del pueblo abrazan la prosperidad que se avecina, sus mujeres conocen y temen íntimamente la violencia que siempre parece seguir. En las primeras horas de la mañana después del Día de San Valentín, Gloria Ramírez, de catorce años, aparece en el porche de la casa del rancho de Mary Rose Whitehead, rota y apenas viva. El adolescente había sido atacado brutalmente en un campo petrolero cercano, un acto de brutalidad que se juzga en las iglesias y bares de Odessa antes de que pueda llegar a un tribunal de justicia. Cuando la justicia es evasiva, una de las mujeres de la ciudad decide tomar el asunto en sus propias manos, preparando el escenario para un enfrentamiento con consecuencias potencialmente devastadoras. Valentin es una exploración inquietante de las intersecciones de violencia y raza, clase y región en una historia que conecta las profundidades de la oscuridad y el miedo, pero ofrece una ventana a la belleza y la esperanza. Contada a través de los puntos de vista alternos de personajes indelebles que se hunden profundamente en el corazón del lector, esta novela feroz, inquebrantable, oscuramente divertida y sorprendentemente tierna ilumina la fuerza y ??la vulnerabilidad de las mujeres, y nos recuerda que son las historias que nos contamos las que nos mantienen viva.

Combining the haunting power of Toni Morrison’s Beloved with the evocative atmosphere of Phillippa Gregory’s A Respectable Trade, Dahlma Llanos-Figueroa’s groundbreaking novel illuminates a little discussed aspect of history—the Puerto Rican Atlantic Slave Trade—witnessed through the experiences of Pola, an African captive used as a breeder to bear more slaves. A Woman of Endurance, set in nineteenth-century Puerto Rican plantation society, follows Pola, a deeply spiritual African woman who is captured and later sold for the purpose of breeding future slaves. The resulting babies are taken from her as soon as they are born. Pola loses the faith that has guided her and becomes embittered and defensive. The dehumanizing violence of her life almost destroys her. But this is not a novel of defeat but rather one of survival, regeneration, and reclamation of common humanity. Readers are invited to join Pola in her journey to healing. From the sadistic barbarity of her first experiences, she moves on to receive compassion and support from a revitalizing new community. Along the way, she learns to recognize and embrace the many faces of love—a mother’s love, a daughter’s love, a sister’s love, a love of community, and the self-love that she must recover before she can offer herself to another. It is ultimately, a novel of the triumph of the human spirit even under the most brutal of conditions.

Kyle Miller is a rare breed. Though born to conservative parents and raised in small-town Oklahoma, Kyle realized young that he had to escape rural America. Now he's living in New York City, working as an ER doctor, and paying off his massive student loans. He's never been on a plane and never seen a movie, but he is worldly enough to recognize attraction when it smacks him in the forehead. Not that he knows how he managed to crack heads with Joseph, who's a good foot shorter than Kyle's six and a half feet.Joseph is Kyle's polar opposite in other ways too, well-off where Kyle is poor, and self-assured while Kyle is insecure. He's also determined to show Kyle what a great guy he is and bring the confidence Kyle shows in the ER out in his everyday life. But Kyle's hectic work schedule and inexperience with relationships won't make for an easy romance.

Ulysses is a novel by the Irish writer James Joyce. It is considered to be one of the most important works of Modernist literature, it has been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement". "Before Joyce, no writer of fiction had so foregrounded the process of thinking."However, even proponents of Ulysses such as Anthony Burgess have described the book as "inimitable, and also possibly mad". There have been at least 18 different "Ulysses" editions (Joyce's handwritten manuscripts were typed by a number of amateur typists). This eBook is a faithful reproduction of the the notable first book edition published in Paris on 2 February 1922 by Sylvia Beach at Shakespeare and Company (only 1000 copies were printed). James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (2 February 1882 – 13 January 1941) was an Irish novelist and poet, considered to be one of the most influential writers in the modernist avant-garde of the early 20th century. Joyce is best known for Ulysses (1922), a landmark work in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in an array of contrasting literary styles, perhaps most prominent among these the stream of consciousness technique he perfected. Other major works are the short-story collection Dubliners (1914), and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Finnegans Wake (1939). His complete oeuvre also includes three books of poetry, a play, occasional journalism, and his published letters.

Known for much of the nineteenth century as "the ever-faithful isle," Cuba did not earn its independence from Spain until 1898, long after most American colonies had achieved emancipation from European rule. In this groundbreaking history, David Sartorius explores the relationship between political allegiance and race in nineteenth-century Cuba. Challenging assumptions that loyalty to the Spanish empire was the exclusive province of the white Cuban elite, he examines the free and enslaved people of African descent who actively supported colonialism. By claiming loyalty, many black and mulatto Cubans attained some degree of social mobility, legal freedom, and political inclusion in a world where hierarchy and inequality were the fundamental lineaments of colonial subjectivity. Sartorius explores Cuba's battlefields, plantations, and meeting halls to consider the goals and limits of loyalty. In the process, he makes a bold call for fresh perspectives on imperial ideologies of race and on the rich political history of the African diaspora.

The tenth book in Winston Graham's classic Poldark saga, now a major TV series from Masterpiece PBS. Cornwall 1813 A silver cup lies half-forgotten in a dank cave, amongst a pile of stolen goods. Yet the tiny vessel and its inscription Amor gignit amorem haunts the lives of the still-feuding Poldark and Warleggan families, as Ross, Demelza and the ambitious and powerful Sir George Warleggan watch their children make the decisions that will shape their destinies. In the closing years of the wars against Napoleon, for Jeremy and Clowance, and for arrogant, cynical Valentine Warleggan, these are troubled and momentous times . . . In his Poldark series, Winston Graham explores the complications of love lost and the class struggle of early 19th-century England with a light comic touch. The Loving Cup is followed by the eleventh book in the series, The Twisted Sword.
