Barbery, Muriel

L'Elégance du hérisson, de Muriel Barbery (9782070464326).«Je m'appelle Renée, j'ai cinquante-quatre ans et je suis la concierge du 7 rue de Grenelle, un immeuble bourgeois. Je suis veuve, petite, laide, grassouillette, j'ai des oignons aux pieds et, à en croire certains matins auto-incommodants, une haleine de mammouth. Mais surtout, je suis si conforme à l'image que l'on se fait des concierges qu'il ne viendrait à l'idée de personne que je suis plus lettrée que tous ces riches suffisants.Je m'appelle Paloma, j'ai douze ans, j'habite au 7 rue de Grenelle dans un appartement de riches. Mais depuis très longtemps, je sais que la destination finale, c'est le bocal à poissons, la vacuité et l'ineptie de l'existence adulte. Comment est-ce que je le sais ? Il se trouve que je suis très intelligente. Exceptionnellement intelligente, même. C'est pour ça que j'ai pris ma décision : à la fin de cette année scolaire, le jour de mes treize ans, je me suiciderai.»

Mick Rock. The Rise of David Bowie. 1972-1973
Hoy -5% en Libros

Bracewell, Michael

Una retrospectiva única de Mick Rock, el fotógrafo oficial y socio creativo de David Bowie, recopilada en 2015 con el consentimiento del propio Bowie.En 1972, David Bowie publicó su revolucionario álbum The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Con él nació también el alter ego Stardust de Bowie: un ser de vestimenta reluciente, rímel en los ojos y sexualmente ambiguo que rompió las fronteras entre lo masculino y lo femenino, lo heterosexual y lo homosexual, la realidad y la ficción en un cambiante y brillante fenómeno de autoexpresión de los años setenta. Ziggy, el álbum, y Ziggy, el espectáculo, convirtieron al londinense de voz suave en una de las mayores estrellas del mundo.Uno de los pasajeros clave en ese viaje glam rumbo a la estratosfera fue Mick Rock, también de Londres. Rock estableció vínculos artísticos y personales muy estrechos con Bowie, pasó a formar parte del círculo íntimo del cantante y trabajó, en 1972 y 1973, como su fotógrafo oficial.Esta colección de fotografías reúne instantáneas espectaculares sobre el escenario y retratos íntimos en el backstage. El libro celebra la experimentación y reinvención audaz de Bowie. Una visión sin precedentes de las múltiples facetas del artista. Jugando con lo distante y lo accesible, lo divertido y lo serio, este apasionado tributo se regocija en la experimentación y la imprevisibilidad, y celebra la eterna inspiración de un artista audaz y excepcional que siempre será recordado.

The shadow of Perseus
Hoy -5% en Libros

Heywood, Claire

Nationally bestselling author of Daughters of Sparta Claire Heywood returns with an imaginative and female-centered reinterpretation of the myth of the great hero Perseus, told through the voices of three women who are sidelined in the traditional version--his mother, Danae, his trophy, Medusa, and his wife, Andromeda--but whose viewpoints reveal a man who is not, in fact, a hero at all.Danae: Banished from her homeland thanks to a prophecy foretelling that her unborn child will one day cause the death of her father, the king of Argos, Danae finds herself stranded, pregnant, and alone in a remote fishing village. It's a harsh new world for a young woman who grew up as a coddled princess, and forging a new life for herself and for her young son Perseus will be the hardest thing she's ever done.Medusa: As a member of a reclusive band of women who live deep in the woods, known as the Gorgons, Medusa has eschewed all contact with the outside world. That is, until the day she finds an injured boy named Perseus in the forest.Andromeda: When a harsh sandstorm threatens to destroy her nomadic desert tribe's way of life, Andromeda knows that a sacrifice will be required to appease the gods and end the storm. But when a forceful young Perseus interferes, Andromeda's life is set on an entirely new path.As Perseus becomes increasingly obsessed with the promise of his own destiny, his heroic journey casts a shadow of violence and destruction across all three women's lives. But even as he tries to silence them, the women may find that reclaiming their voices is their only hope for lifting themselves into a better future.

Hastings, Max

Max Hastings nos trae uno de los capítulos más dramáticos olvidados de la segunda guerra mundial.En agosto de 1942, una asediada Malta estuvo a pocas semanas de rendirse porque sus 300.000 habitantes ya no podían ser alimentados. Churchill tomó la decisión personal de salvar a toda costa la ''isla fortaleza''. No se trataba simplemente de una cuestión de estrategia, sino de prestigio nacional, cuando la fortuna y la moral de Gran Bretaña habían caído a su punto más bajo. Por las páginas de este libro veremos desfilar catastróficos hundimientos de buques, junto con luchas por rescatar a los supervivientes y salvar los barcos siniestrados. Max Hastings describe esta historia como una de las más extraordinarias que jamás haya contado. Hasta las últimas horas, ningún participante de ninguno de los dos bandos pudo saber cuál sería el resultado de una epopeya de suspense y valor en tiempos de guerra.

Paradise lost (clothbound classics)
Hoy -5% en Libros

Milton, John W.

John Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, a tale of immense drama and excitement, of rebellion and treachery, of innocence pitted against corruption, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. The struggle rages across three worlds - heaven, hell, and earth - as Satan and his band of rebel angels plot their revenge against God. At the center of the conflict are Adam and Eve, who are motivated by all too human temptations but whose ultimate downfall is unyielding love.Marked by Milton's characteristic erudition, Paradise Lost is a work epic both in scale and, notoriously, in ambition. For nearly 350 years, it has held generation upon generation of audiences in rapt attention, and its profound influence can be seen in almost every corner of Western culture.

It tells the story of the heroic Beowulf and of his battles, first with the monster Grendel, who has laid waste to the great hall of the Danish king Hrothgar, then with Grendel's avenging mother, and finally with a dragon that threatens to devastate his homeland. Through its blend of myth and history, Beowulf vividly evokes a twilight world in which men and supernatural forces live side by side. And it celebrates the endurance of the human spirit in a transient world.

This book is about stories of archives. By delving into bak.ma, a digital media archive born out of the social movements in Turkey, we are guided through a journey in which archives become sites of other kinds of stories: ones that involve solidarity, activism, and the commons. Author Özge Çelikaslan uses the concept of archives of the commons to reimagine archives as spaces of commoning in which creative, autonomous, platforms are generated collectively to perpetuate knowledge and sociopolitical relations grounded in solidarity and an ethics of care – not in some distant future, but in the here and now. With contributions by Thomas Keenan and Pelin Tan.

Verghese, Abraham

From the New York Times-bestselling author of Cutting for Stone comes a stunning and magisterial epic of love, faith, and medicine, set in Kerala, South India, following three generations of a family seeking the answers to a strange secretSpanning the years 1900 to 1977, The Covenant of Water is set in Kerala, on India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala's Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time. From this unforgettable new beginning, the young girl—and future matriarch, Big Ammachi—will witness unthinkable changes over the span of her extraordinary life, full of joy and triumph as well as hardship and loss, her faith and love the only constants.A shimmering evocation of a bygone India and of the passage of time itself, The Covenant of Water is a hymn to progress in medicine and to human understanding, and a humbling testament to the hardships undergone by past generations for the sake of those alive today. Imbued with humor, deep emotion, and the essence of life, it is one of the most masterful literary novels published in recent years.
