The deer and the dragon
Avui -5% en Llibres

C. J., Piper

The deities you call aren't always the ones who answer. Marlow needs to believe she's crazy. The alternative would mean embracing the gift―or curse―shared by her mother and she can see angels and demons, including a dark and haunting entity who's been with Marlow her entire life. At least, she believes that's all he is until a fae from the Nordic pantheon strolls into her life and informs her that she's been sharing a bed with the Prince of Hell. A Prince who's now gone missing. Before she knows it, Marlow is deeply entangled in a centuries-old war, stumbling straight into a battleground between mighty beings of myth and legend from powerful pantheons around the world. And who will come out on top may just depend on her and the love she never dared to believe in.

Silver nitrate

Moreno-García, Silvia

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Daughter of Doctor Moreau and Mexican Gothic comes a fabulous meld of Mexican horror movies and Nazi occultism: a dark thriller about the curse that haunts a legendary lost film--and awakens one woman's hidden powers.Montserrat has always been overlooked. She’s a talented sound editor, but she’s left out of the boys’ club running the film industry in ’90s Mexico City. And she’s all but invisible to her best friend, Tristán, a charming if faded soap opera star, though she’s been in love with him since childhood.Then Tristán discovers his new neighbor is the cult horror director Abel Urueta, and the legendary auteur claims he can change their lives—even if his tale of a Nazi occultist imbuing magic into highly volatile silver nitrate stock sounds like sheer fantasy. The magic film was never finished, which is why, Urueta swears, his career vanished overnight. He is cursed.Now the director wants Montserrat and Tristán to help him shoot the missing scene and lift the curse . . . but Montserrat soon notices a dark presence following her, and Tristán begins seeing the ghost of his ex-girlfriend.As they work together to unravel the mystery of the film and the obscure occultist who once roamed their city, Montserrat and Tristán may find that sorcerers and magic are not only the stuff of movies.

Homenaje a Borges

Kodama, María

María Kodama presenta al gran público, por primera vez y a manera de homenaje cuando se cumplen treinta años de la muerte de Borges, una selección de las cientos de conferencias que ha dado sobre él y su obra en todo el mundo. «Nuestra decantada relación fue pasando a través del tiempo por distintas facetas hasta culminar en el amor que nos habitaba... Ese amor del que fue dejando trazas a lo largo de sus libros sin decírmelo, hasta que me lo reveló en Islandia. Ese amor protegido como la Völsunga Saga por un mágico círculo de fuego, cuyo resplandor nos ocultaba de miradas indiscretas... Desde el centro de nuestro jardín secreto se alza esa llama que pertenece a la dinastía de los amantes... Esa llama hecha de amor, de lealtad, de pasión que una vez compartimos, sigue viva en mí para usted #for ever and ever and a day#.»MK María Kodama tenía dieciséis años cuando conoció a Jorge Luis Borges. Desde ese momento fueron inseparables. Creció junto a él: compartieron estudios, lecturas, traducciones, viajes, pasiones. A treinta años de la partida de Borges, y a manera de homenaje, este libro ofrece por primera vez una selección del conjunto de cientos de conferencias que Kodama ha dado sobre el gran autor y su obra en cada rincón del mundo. Aquí está uno de los más importantes autores en lengua hispana de la historia de la literatura y su relación con los laberintos, el tiempo, los libros, los sueños, lo fantástico, y también está el amor entre Ulrica y Javier Otárola, como eligieron llamarse en la intimidad una mujer y un hombre: María Kodama y Jorge Luis Borges.

Black women taught us

Jackson, Jenn M.

A reclamation of essential history and a hopeful gesture toward a better political future, this is what listening to Black women looks like —from a professor of political science and columnist for Teen Vogue.This is my offering. My love letter to them, and to us.Jenn M. Jackson, PhD, has been known to bring historical acuity to some of the most controversial topics in America today. Now, in their first book, Jackson applies their critical analysis to the questions that have long energized their Why has Black women’s freedom fighting been so overlooked throughout history, and what has our society lost because of our refusal to engage with our forestrugglers’ lessons?A love letter to those who have been minimized and forgotten, this collection repositions Black women’s intellectual and political work at the center of today’s liberation movements.Across eleven original essays that explore the legacy of Black women writers and leaders—from Harriet Jacobs and Ida B. Wells to the Combahee River Collective and Audre Lorde—Jackson sets the record straight about Black women’s longtime movement organizing, theorizing, and coalition building in the name of racial, gender, and sexual justice in the United States and abroad. These essays show, in both critical and deeply personal terms, how Black women have been at the center of modern liberation movements despite the erasure and misrecognition of their efforts. Jackson illustrates how Black women have frequently done the work of liberation at great risk to their lives and livelihoods.For a new generation of movement organizers and co-strugglers, Black Women Taught Us serves as a reminder that Black women were the first ones to teach us how to fight racism, how to name that fight, and how to imagine a more just world for everyone.

One life
Avui -5% en Llibres

Winton, Barbara

There are around 6000 people in the world today who owe their lives to Nicholas Winton. They are the descendants of a group of refugee children rescued by him from the Nazi threat in 1939. Some of them know of his existence and the part he played in their history, many others do not. It was a short event in his life but a critical one for those whose lives were saved. For him that intervention was over in a flash and other adventures supplanted it. Only much later did this episode re-emerge in his life and ever since has brought him visitors from all over the world anxious to learn his story. This book lays out that story in detail, exploring the motivation and early experiences that led to him acting to save young lives, while others looked the other way. His motto ''If something is not impossible, then there must be a way to do it'' led him to follow his own convictions and undertake an operation others had dismissed as unnecessary or too difficult. His life thereafter was full of exploits stimulated by similar motivation which, though not so consequential, remain testimony to his character. But what was his motivation? How had his life and background led to him being ready, willing and able to conduct a successful rescue operation of 669 children from Czechoslovakia at the age of 29? His daughter has painstakingly sifted through her father's papers and talked to family and friends to construct a detailed account of his whole life. It explores the influences on his character as well as the historical events he was caught up in. Taken from his historical letters and writings, Winton's own words are introduced to convey the atmosphere of many of his diverse experiences.

Antigone, Oedipus the King and Electra
Avui -5% en Llibres

Sófocles

Love and loyalty, hatred and revenge, fear, deprivation, and political ambition: these are the motives which thrust the characters portrayed in these three Sophoclean masterpieces on to their collision course with catastrophe. Recognized in his own day as perhaps the greatest of the Greek tragedians, Sophocles's reputation has remained undimmed for two and a half thousand years. His greatest innovation in the tragic medium was his development of a central tragic figure, faced with a test of will and character, risking obloquy and death rather than compromise his or her principles: it is striking that Antigone and Electra both have a woman as their intransigent `hero'. Antigone dies rather than neglect her duty to her family, Oedipus's determination to save his city results in the horrific discovery that he has committed both incest and parricide, and Electra's unremitting anger at her mother and her lover keeps her in servitude and despair. These vivid translations combine elegance and modernity, and are equally suitable for reading or theatrical performance.

La literatura puede unir a las personas o separarlas para siempre.«Galder Reguera convierte las emociones en una fiesta de la inteligencia y demuestra que no hay campo de investigación más extenso que la propia familia», Juan Villoro. «Cuando la vida se cuenta con franqueza, nobleza y bondad indisimulable, uno queda desarmado», Juan Marqués, The Objective. «Galder Reguera lleva a altas cotas la autoficción», Carlos Sala, La Razón. «Su literatura provoca felicidad. Una felicidad contagiosa, inquietante. De las que te empujan a hacer cosas, por más intrascendentes que estas sean», Marcel Beltrán, Panenka. «Un escritor noble y bondadoso, sensible y muy inteligente», Las Librerías Recomiendan. Cuando Unai tenía diez años, su padre abandonó a la familia para trasladarse a Barcelona y convertirse en un escritor de éxito. Aquella ausencia ha marcado no solo su infancia, sino su manera de entender el amor. Tras recibir una llamada anunciando que su padre está hospitalizado, Unai se prepara por fin para un reencuentro que le ha obsesionado durante años.  Vida y obra es una novela sobre cómo entender la creación en el contexto de las relaciones familiares y cómo la idea romántica de que el autor debe tener un compromiso con la obra por encima de la vida a veces esconde un privilegio. Una fascinante historia sobre la literatura como algo que puede unir a las personas o separarlas para siempre.  Tras emocionar a los lectores con Libro de familia, elegido como uno de los mejores libros de 2020 por La Vanguardia y The Objective («un libro magnífico», David Trueba, «una excelente novela», Manuel Vilas, «valiente y conmovedor», Juan Villoro), Galder Reguera sigue explorando sus grandes temas, los conflictos familiares y la relación padre-hijo.

La comedia inmortal

Heller, Agnes

Un ensayo apasionante sobre lo cómico en el arte, la literatura y la vida de la mano de una de las pensadoras más influyentes del siglo xx.La comedia inmortal explora el papel de lo cómico en la sociedad a través de la historia del arte, la literatura y la vida cotidiana. Desde los antiguos griegos hasta la stand-up comedy, Ágnes Heller examina cómo la comedia ha sido utilizada para expresar crítica social, sátira política y reflexionar sobre la condición humana.  Del teatro clásico al cine, de la literatura a la pintura, Heller recorre en este fascinante viaje histórico y filosófico la obra de figuras como Aristófanes, Shakespeare, Charlie Chaplin, Woody Allen o Botero para reivindicar la importancia del humor a la hora de abordar temas como la religión, la política, la guerra o la sexualidad, y cómo precisamente a causa de ello ha sido silenciado y censurado a lo largo de la historia.  La intelectual húngara plantea, de forma radical, la posibilidad de concederle al fin la trascendencia merecida al fenómeno de lo cómico a través de la filosofía. Un referente irreemplazable de las ciencias sociales, Ágnes Heller «elaboró un pensamiento [...] a medio camino entre la filosofía y la sociología que logró atravesar fronteras hasta convertirla en una de las pensadoras más influyentes de la segunda mitad del siglo XX» (Guillermo Altares, El País).

Guirao, Alberto

En su lecho de muerte, la madre de Valeria le entrega una foto firmada en el reverso: ''Giuliano Emiliozzi'', el hombre que las abandonó. Años después, Valeria relee ese mismo nombre en una antigua revista publicada en la ciudad de Danmara, a donde decide viajar para encontrar a su supuesto padre. El relato de Valeria es la crónica de unas pesquisas, pero también la construcción de una memoria lejos del hogar. La voz de la protagonista terminará cediendo espacio a la de Giuliano: unos diarios escritos al final de la infancia, el testimonio de unas semanas cruciales en la vida de un niño que, de algún modo, marcará el destino de Valeria. ''Llegarás a Danmara'' trenza un relato a varias voces que tiene por tema central la identidad. En la obra hay lugar para las versiones complementarias, los cambios de registro y la vocación literaria. La narración biográfica, como artefacto en continua revisión y sostén de la vida, se pone en duda en la novela y al mismo tiempo se reivindica. El relato aparece como herramienta intuitiva y reflexiva, tapiz que el lenguaje teje para relacionarnos con ese otro que no podemos evitar ser.

From a foremost expert on the science of emotions, a ground-breaking exploration into the history, psychology and meaning of aweSocial psychologist Dacher Keltner has spent his career speaking to different groups of people, from schoolchildren to prisoners to healthcare workers, about the good life. These conversations and his pioneering research into the science of emotion have convinced him that happiness comes down to one thing: finding awe.Awe allows us to collaborate with others, open our minds to wonder, and see the deep patterns of life. In his new book, Keltner presents a radical investigation into this elusive emotion. Drawing on his own scientific research into how awe transforms our brains and bodies, alongside an examination of awe across history, culture and within his own life during a period of immense grief, Keltner shows us how cultivating wonder leads us to appreciate what is most humane in our human nature. The book includes intensely moving, deeply personal stories of awe from people all over the world - doctors and veterans, environmentalists and filmmakers, indigenous scholars and hospice workers, ministers and midwives, poets and prisoners.At turns radical and profound, Awe is our field guide for how to uncover everyday wonder as a vital force within our lives.

Pólvora mojada, además de una magnífica novela, es la mejor crónica que se haya escrito sobre la universidad durante los últimos años de la dictadura del general Franco.El relato cuenta las peripecias de un grupo de estudiantes, durante cuatro días de 1969, cuando, por las revueltas universitarias, el régimen se vio obligado a imponer el Estado de Excepción.Tal es así que Pólvora mojada, más que una narración, es casi un extraordinario reportaje de aquellos días y de su juventud, la misma que, de inmediato, empujará la Transición. Y esta edición puede considerarse íntegra, porque no solo hemos incorporado cuanto la censura retiró de su primera edición de 1972 sino también las anotaciones de puño y letra de Andrés Berlanga sobre el original. Y para cerrar el volumen, además, hemos añadido alguna de la mucha documentación que le sirvió, con sus propias vivencias como profesor de la Escuela de Periodismo, para recrear los hechos de la trama.

Espasandín, Agustina

En una época que exige productividad y progreso, la protagonista y narradora de esta novela toma una decisión a contracorriente. Con treinta y dos años, trabaja de asistenta de dirección en la industria audiovisual y vive con su perro Río en una casa alquilada en un barrio de Buenos Aires con más cuartos de los que puede habitar. Luego de ahorrar durante meses, un día deja de aceptar trabajos por un plazo indefinido. ¿Qué busca? Algo importante: averiguar a qué tiene sentido dedicarle el tiempo si está a su entera disposición. Lo que en un principio parece una fantasía introspectiva y algo individualista, que no está libre de ansiedades, se va convirtiendo en una experiencia de apertura y en el tejido de una red de lazos de afecto. En su debut literario, Agustina Espasandín ha escrito una novela involuntariamente generacional y pospandémica poniéndose en la piel de una heroína de barrio que persigue y entrega lucidez, ternura y gracia en cada encuentro. Con prosa inspiradísima y una convicción infrecuente en una primera novela, Que pase algo pronto es un grito ahogado, y también una canción feliz, contra la falta de ideas de futuro, la deshumanización y el eterno imperio de lo mismo.
