«A arte de escribir consiste en dicir moito con poucas palabras», afirmaba Chéjov, o pai do conto moderno. Un reto para quen crea e unha aventura para quen le. Nestes vinte e dous relatos de «Compostela» achegámonos á cidade dende diversas voces e olladas, mais tamén fuximos dela a arrabaldes de grandes urbes, a vilas pequenas ou a barrios con encanto. Neste paseo literario gozamos de voces consagradas no xénero e doutras que se inician, xeracións diferentes que dialogan nunha mesma lingua na que constrúen historias enraizadas en nós. Cada conto é mostra do gran momento literario do país, estas páxinas son un remuíño de bolboretas mergulladas na mesma luz, a da literatura galega. (Malores Villanueva) A cousa é que a nave foi. E con esta xa van tres... E esta, como di un amigo meu que canta moito e moi ben, «Partiu!». (Pedro Feijoo)

Hona zein den tragedia shakespearetar eta komedia txe-khovtar baten arteko alde nagusia: Shakespeareren tragedia baten amaieran agertokia gorpuz betea dagoela, pertsonaia hilez, eta beharbada justizia nagusitu da, beharbada. Txekhoven antzezlan baten bukaeran, jende guztia desilusionatua dago, guztiz joa, atsekabetua, adoregabetua, baina bizirik. Eta nik bizitza osoan sinetsi izan dut borroka egin behar genukeela, ez gatazka baten amaiera zoriontsu bat izateko –gatazken amaiera zoriontsuetan ez dut nik sinesten–, soluzio txekhovtar bat izateko baizik. ––––––––––––––––– Der grösste Unterschied zwischen der Shakespear’schen Tragödie und der Tschechow’schen Komödie liegt darin, dass am Ende der Tragödie nach Shakespeare die Bühne bedeckt ist mit Leichen, und vielleicht hat die Gerechtigkeit gesiegt, vielleicht. Am Ende eines Stückes von Tschechow sind alle enttäuscht, erschüttert, untröstlich, gebrochen – aber am Leben. Seit ich denken kann bin ich davon überzeugt, dass es nicht darum geht, für das glückliche Ende von Konflikten zu kämpfen – ich glaube bei Konflikten gibt es kein Happy End – sondern für eine Tschechowsche Lösung. ––––––––––––––––– La principal diferencia entre una tragedia de Shakespeare y una comedia de Chejov es que al finalizar una tragedia de Shakespeare el escenario está cubierto de cadáveres y quizás –solo quizás– se haya impuesto la justicia. Al término de una comedia de Chejov, todo el mundo está decepcionado, afligido, derrotado o desencantado, pero vivo. Y toda mi vida he pensado que deberíamos luchar no por un final feliz del conflicto –nunca he creído en los finales felices de los conflictos–, sino por una solución chejoviana.

This survey of great contemporary artists is the perfect introduction to the exciting world of art today. Artists working after the Second World War faced a confounding array of challenges, as stylistic barriers were broken, technology advanced, and issues of sexuality and race came to the forefront. From painters and photographers to sculptors and performance artists, fifty of the most influential contemporary artists are profiled in this colorful and engaging book that traces the various artistic movements and radical changes of the second half of the twentieth and early twentyfirst centuries. Presented chronologically, each artist is featured in 2 or 4-page spreads that include brilliant reproductions of their most important works, an illuminating biography, key dates in their career, and informative background on major developments in the art world. Throughout the volume a timeline places each artist within the context of contemporary art. As diverse and inspiring as the artists themselves, this book is a voyage of discovery into art's cutting edge.

Roger Steffens toured with Bob Marley for two weeks of his final tour of California in 1979 and the music icon was the first guest of Steffens' award-winning radio show. In So Much Things To Say, Steffens draws on a lifetime of scholarship to tell the story of Marley's childhood abandonment, his formative years in Trench Town, his seemingly meteoric rise to international fame and his tragic death at 36. Weaving together the voices of Rita Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer-as well as band members, family and friends-Steffens reveals extraordinary new details, dispels myths and highlights the most dramatic elements of Marley's life, his psychic abilities and his overriding commitment to the peace and love message of Rastafari. This landmark work will reshape our understanding of this legendary performer.

Au hasard d’une galerie de Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Frédéric Beigbeder aperçoit un tableau représentant une cabane, dans une vitrine. Au premier plan, un fauteuil couvert d’un coussin à rayures, devant un bureau d’écrivain avec encrier et carnets, sur une plage curieusement exotique. Cette toile le fait rêver, il l’achète et soudain, il se souvient : la scène représente la pointe du bassin d’Arcachon, le cap Ferret, où vit son ami Benoît Bartherotte. Sans doute fatigué, Frédéric prend cette peinture pour une invitation au voyage. Il va écrire dans cette cabane, sur ce bureau.

Entre o lume do val e as néboas da serra, algo se revolve nas entrañas da Galicia máis feroz e descarnada. Unha serie atroz de asasinatos espertará a memoria dun nome perdido no tempo e, como nun segredo que se comparte en voz baixa, un temor comezará a repetirse nos rumores: «Volveu o Sacaúntos...». «Onde nacen as bestas» é unha novela sobre o lado salvaxe do noso propio ser, onde a montaña marca as personalidades dos seus habitantes e a piedade pode desaparecer en calquera momento. Unha historia cunha atmosfera densa e inquietante, onde as fronteiras entre o cotián e o imaxinario se cruzan e mesturan ata facer imposible distinguir que é real e que lenda. Pedro Feijoo mergúllanos nunha historia de violencia ancestral, silencios familiares e identidades ocultas. Un thriller apaixonante que explora os recunchos máis escuros da natureza humana, onde todos gardamos os nosos segredos e nada é o que parece. Ou, se cadra, si.

Julio Cortázar: el cronopio fugitivo
El nombre de Julio Cortázar aún resuena en todo el mundo por su calidadliteraria y por su hondo compromiso con el ser humano. Considerado comouno de los autores más importantes del siglo XX, su vida fue tancontrovertida y apasionante como su obra. Escribió, viajó por diferentespaíses y pasó largas temporadas en ellos dejando un rastro imborrable deprofeta social, especialmente en tierras latinoamericanas. En todo esetiempo Cortázar nunca olvidó su destino y luchó por sus ideales, yafueran artísticos, políticos o metafísicos, y siempre bajo el paraguasde la literatura, su vieja amiga de la infancia que le acompañó hasta lamuerte.Pero tras este autor carismático y cosmopolita, se ocultaba un individuofuera de lo común: una persona de extraordinaria sensibilidad que viviómarcada por los traumas familiares y por una relación conflictiva con supropio país, Argentina. Cortázar fue hombre de grandes amores y deexcelentes amigos, también de oscuros secretos. Basándose en recienteshallazgos documentales, Miguel Dalmau construye una biografía rigurosa,vibrante y atrevida, un retrato que se aleja de los patrones académicosal uso para mostrarnos el lado más íntimo y desconocido de un artistaexcepcional.

Xavier Queipo, un dos narradores galegos que máis se ten prodigado na narrativa breve, celebra o seu 66 aniversario con esta colección de sesenta e seis relatos breves, aos que engade un limiar esclarecedor. A primeira parte do libro, «Relatos atópicos», recolle contos no sentido estrito, aínda que con sorpresas, «Gabinete de curiosidades» fai lembrar as prosas das súas entregas anteriores («Contornos», de 1993, e «Mundiños», de 1995), «Prosas finiseculares» é unha colección de fragmentos do seu diario na última década do século XX. Como xa acontecera en «55» (Xerais, 2014), este libro conforma un crisol de historias que pasean polo gume entre a realidade e a ficción, con moitas referencias eruditas e tamén con lembranzas de vidas que xa sucederon ou que aínda poderán suceder. Un Xavier Queipo en estado puro que explora a innovación temática e formal.

As the temperature rises in Gaborone, Precious Ramotswe, founder of the No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency, wonders whether the heat could be the reason that business is particularly slow. Luckily, a slower pace in life is her natural preference, unlike her colleague Mma Makutsi, who is alert to every passing observation and inclined to making snap decisions. With fewer cases to handle, Precious has time to contemplate her new neighbours, a couple who, by the sounds of it, have a rather volatile relationship . . .But then a distant cousin of Mma Ramotswe’s comes to the agency with a plea for help, and the ladies decide to pursue the issue together. Armed with Mma Ramotswe’s circumspection and Mma Makutsi’s sharp eye, they proceed with confidence and open hearts. What, after all, could be more straightforward than a family matter?Meanwhile, their colleague Charlie is behaving oddly, borrowing Mma Ramotswe’s van and returning it in an unusual condition. Digging a little deeper, the explanation is both strange and extraordinary, and takes Charlie, along with Mma Ramotswe’s husband, Mr J. L. B. Matekoni, on a hair-raising night-time expedition.In the end, Precious is reminded of the need to view a picture from every angle, to accept the imperfections in people and situations, and then find a solution – preferably over a delicious slice of her friend Mma Potokwani’s fruit cake.

Las mujeres, que leen, son peligrosas
Relegadas tradicionalmente a un papel secundario y a menudo pasivo en la sociedad, las mujeres encontraron muy pronto en la lectura una manera de romper las estrecheces de su mundo. La puerta abierta al conocimiento, la imaginación, el acceso a otro mundo, un mundo de libertad e independencia, les ha permitido desarrollarse y adoptar, poco a poco, nuevos roles en la sociedad. A través de un recorrido por las numerosas obras de arte que reflejan la estrecha relación entre libros y mujeres, Stefan Bollmann rinde un sentido homenaje a las mujeres y confirma el excepcional poder que confiere la lectura.

Piove. In una primavera ritardataria, il Pm Tataranni è di pessimo umore. Mentre è in corso la campagna elettorale per le Regionali si ritrova fra i piedi una ragazza troppo intraprendente, troppo ingenua, forse mitomane. Quando la giovane scompare, Imma Tataranni comincia a vedere tutto sotto un'altra luce: se stessero tentando di incastrarla? Eccola tirar fuori gli aculei, mentre si aggira per una Basilicata che sembra la Transilvania, impantanandosi in tutti i sensi. All'inseguimento di una verità che affonda le radici nel passato si spingerà fino a Roma: fra il Colosseo e piazza di Spagna sfreccerà in scooter stretta all'appuntato Calogiuri, e finirà col cadere in tentazione. Ma anche sul suo prediletto si allunga qualche ombra. Nell' indagine sembrano spuntare i fantasmi, una vecchia parla di malocchio. Dagli studi di Cinecittà in via di dismissione al petrolio della Val d'Agri, da Montecitorio ai vicoli deserti di Craco, il paese abbandonato, solo la testardaggine di una donna che non teme i chili di troppo e rifugge i buoni sentimenti potrà venire a capo dell'enigma. Dissacrante nella sua normalità, forse Imma imparerà a fidarsi un po' di più di se stessa e degli altri, forse il frutto proibito si potrebbe cogliere, forse il Belpaese non è del tutto da rottamare.
