Encuadernación: Tapa dura Estuche que contiene dos libros de historietas encuadernados en rústica de 320 páginas interiores en blanco y negro más cubiertas que contiene la traducción de los libros originales Maus Volume I: My Father Bleeds History y Maus Volume II: And Here My Troubles Began publicados en USA en 1986 y 1991. Volumen único. UNA EDICIóN ESPECIAL- ESTUCHE PARA CONMEMORAR EL 40 ANIVERSARIO DE MAUS. La novela gráfica que ha hecho historia ganadora del premio Pulitzer. La edición íntegra con el formato original de dos tomos. Incluye un cuadernillo inédito de dieciséis páginas diseñado por el propio autor. Maus es la historia de un superviviente de Auschwitz, Vladek Spiegelman narrada a su hijo Art, el autor del libro. Pero además, en Maus el autor también realiza un retrato de su padre en la actualidad (en el momento en que se entrevista con él para que le relate sus recuerdos de la guerra) así como de su difícil y tensa relación con él. En Maus, Spiegelman va más allá del Holocausto para instalarse en la psicología del superviviente en un intento de deshacer la maraña de su relación paterno-filial, de la sombra de una madre suicida y del fantasma de un hermano santificado al que nunca conoció. Hay que mencionar que en Maus los personajes se nos muestran con rasgos faciales de animales, característica que se usa con fines narrativos; así, por ejemplo, los judíos son presentados ratones, mientras que los nazis como gatos. Maus está considerado unánimemente por la crítica como uno de los mejores cómics de la historia. Además, se trata de uno de los escasos cómics que no sólo trascendido al gran público sino que lo hizo con un reconocimiento notable: recibió uno de los prestigiosos Premios Pulitzer en 1992, una beca de la Fundación Guggenheim y dió lugar a una exposición en el Museo de Arte Moderno de Nueva York. 1

18.33 EUR
Libro: Perreo. Una Revolución / Twerk. a Revolution (979-88-909848-7-6) de Cazzu (Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial ) Comprar Libros de Tiempo Libre .Música .. Cazzu es una de las traperas más importantes de Latinoamérica. No es casual que la llamen La Jefa. No es casual que su perreo moleste a muchos, interpele a tantas, y no deje indiferente a nadie. Durante años, Cazzu se enfrentó a una pregunta: "Cómo se siente tener éxito en un género musical tan machista?". Y como le ocurre a casi cualquier mujer virtuosa y con notoriedad, le pidieron que diera explicaciones. Pero por qué se lo preguntaban más a ella que a los hombres? Y, sobre todo, es realmente machista el reggaetón? Este libro nació como respuesta y como exploración a esa dualidad que anida en el género: letras que sexualizan a las mujeres, pero también mujeres que expresan su deseo, saben lo que quieren, cómo y cuándo. Las reggaetoneras, dice Cazzu, son lamentablemente una utopía: ejercen su derecho al sexo sin correr peligro y sin preocuparse por la condena social. En Perreo, una revolución , repasa su recorrido, una trayectoria marcada por la superación de innumerables desafíos y traiciones. Armada de un gran talento y una fuerza de trabajo incansable, desde muy joven construyó una carrera notable y atrevida que la catapultó a los grandes escenarios del mundo, consolidándose como una de las traperas más importantes de Latinoamérica. La definen la delicadeza y la potencia, la ternura y la rebeldía. No es casual que la llamen La Jefa. La voz de Cazzu es única, sí, pero es el grito contenido de muchas que no tienen voz. El reggaetón incomoda, despierta la cólera en los más conservadores, porque propone otra mujer, una perra desinhibida que controla su cuerpo, sus decisiones y su sexualidad, y que con su actitud ridiculiza cualquier opinión ofensiva. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Cazzu is one of the most important trappers in Latin America. It is no coincidence she is called La Jefa. It is no coincidence her twerk bothers many, challenges many, and leaves no one indifferent. For years, Cazzu has faced one question: "How does it feel to succeed in such a misogynistic musical genre?" And as it happens to almost any famous virtuosa, she was asked to explain. But why was she asked more often than men? And above all, is reggaeton really misogynistic? This book was born as an answer to and an exploration of this duality that nests inside the genre: lyrics that sexualize women, but also women who express their desire, who know what they want, how and when. Female reggaeton artists, says Cazzu, are unfortunately utopian: they exercise their right to have sex free of danger and without worrying about social stigma. In Twerk. A Revolution , she goes over her journey, a career marked by surmounting several challenges and betrayals. Armed with great talent and a relentless strength for work, from a very young age she built a remarkable and bold career that helped catapult her to the greatest stages in the...

Cómo silenciar la voz interior que heredamos de nuestros padres A veces queremos imponer a nuestros hijos la forma de hacer las cosas porque así aprendimos, así nos educaron, o sólo porque creemos que es lo correcto, sin importar si con ello les transmitimos nuestras frustraciones, miedos o inseguridades. Este maravilloso libro, Mario Guerra nos alerta sobre el impacto profundo y duradero que las voces y expectativas de nuestros padres pueden tener en nuestra vida adulta. A través de experiencias terapéuticas y ejemplos prácticos, nos guía para reconocer y sanar esas influencias que nos afectan día a día. Ya déjame en paz, mamá (y tú también, papá) invita a los adultos a explorar las raíces de sus conflictos con las figuras parentales, a establecer límites saludables y a reconocer los errores del pasado. Este libro no solo se dirige a padres de hijos pequeños, sino principalmente a aquellos que, ya en su vida adulta, buscan liberarse de las cargas emocionales heredadas y encontrar su propia voz. El autor ofrece una guía de comunicación efectiva, ayudando a los lectores a identificar y transformar las voces internas críticas. Enseña a distinguir entre la propia voz y las críticas heredadas de los padres, y cómo convertir esas críticas en afirmaciones positivas. Destaca la importancia de poner límites claros para proteger el bienestar emocional y cómo la resiliencia puede ayudar a enfrentar los desafíos. Además, proporciona maneras de liberarse de la culpa impuesta y desarrollar la empatía necesaria para tener mejores relaciones. También presenta estrategias para manejar y resolver los conflictos que surgen debido a la influencia de los padres, presentes o ausentes, en la vida adulta. El propósito es compartir años de experiencia terapéutica para lograr una vida de amor verdadero, bienestar familiar y sanación interior. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION How do we quiet down the inner voices we inherited from our parents? Sometimes we want to impose our ways to our children because that is what we were taught, how we were raised, or simply because we think it is right, even if, by doing so, we pass on our frustrations, fears, or insecurities to them. In this wonderful book, Mario Guerra alerts us about the deep and lasting impact that our parents' voices and expectations can have in adult life. Through therapeutic experiences and practical examples, he guides us to acknowledge and heal these influences that affect us everyday. Leave Me Alone Mom (And You Too, Dad) invites grownups to explore the roots of their conflict with parental figures, establish healthy limits, and acknowledge the mistakes of the past. This book is not only meant for parents of small children, but mostly for those who already, in their adult life, seek liberation from the...

A través de relatos donde la naturaleza emerge con voz propia, los ecos de la infancia se convierten en memoria reparadora y, a la vez, en motores desencadenantes de las tramas: un arco de historias que nos confronta con la inapelable búsqueda de justicia y con las vueltas de tuerca que el azar teje frente al olvido.003cbr003e 003cbr003e Con una prosa envolvente y toques sutiles de literatura fantástica, estos cuentos de Karina Pacheco invitan a atisbar las fracturas irresueltas del pasado que, con nuevas formas y máscaras, continúan remeciendo el presente latinoamericano.003cbr003e 003cbr003e 003cb003eENGLISH DESCRIPTION003c/b003e003cbr003e 003cbr003e 003cb003eThe latest book by Nobel Prize winner from Peru Karina Pacheco.003c/b003e003cbr003e 003cbr003e Set in rural landscapes, cliffs, and exuberant rainforests, where an indigenous print can still be found, these stories reflect how the abuse of power--whether it comes from corruption; drug trade; gender, state, or insurgent violence--conditions the life of the protagonists: children exposed to all kinds of oppression and harassment. Through stories where nature emerges with a voice of its own, the echoes of childhood become restorative memory and, at the same time, plot-promoting motors: a story arch that confronts us with an indisputable search for justice and with the plot twists that fate weaves in the face of oblivion.003cbr003e 003cbr003e With an engaging prose and a subtle touch of fantasy, these short stories by Karina Pacheco invite us to glimpse at the unresolved fractures of the past, which, with new forms and masks, continue to shake the present of Latin America. 0

Libro: SPEAKING IN TONGUES (978-1-78730-513-7) de J. M. Coetzee; Mariana Dimpulos (Penguin Random House ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Otros Idiomas .Novela y Narrativa en Inglés .. This is a book about languages, what languages can and what they cannot do. In this dialogue between a Nobel Laureate and a leading translator, provocative ideas emerge about the evolution of language and the challenge of translation. Language, historically speaking, has always been slippery. Two dictionaries provide two different maps of the universe- which one is true, or are both false? Speaking in Tongues - taking the form of a dialogue between Nobel-Laureate novelist J. M. Coetzee and eminent translator Mariana Dim pulos - explores questions that have constantly plagued writers and translators, now more than ever. Among them- How can a translator liberate meanings imprisoned in the language of a text? Why is the masculine form dominant in gendered languages while the feminine is treated as a deviation? How should we counter the spread of monolingualism? Should a translator censor racist or misogynistic language? Does mathematics tell the truth about everything? In the tradition of Walter Benjamin's seminal essay 'The Task of the Translator', Speaking in Tongues emerges as an engaging and accessible work of philosophy, shining a light on some of the most important linguistic and philological issues of our time. 0

Libro: This Other Eden (978-1-80494-085-3) de Harding, Paul T. ... [et al.] (Penguin Random House ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. "In 1792, formerly enslaved Benjamin Honey and his Irish wife, Patience, discover an island where they can make a life together. Over a century later, the Honeys' descendants and a diverse group of neighbors are desperately poor, isolated, and often hungry, but nevertheless protected from the hostility awaiting them on the mainland. During the tumultuous summer of 1912, Matthew Diamond, a retired, idealistic but prejudiced schoolteacher-turned-missionary, disrupts the community's fragile balance through his efforts to educate its children. His presence attracts the attention of authorities on the mainland who, under the influence of the eugenics-thinking popular among progressives of the day, decide to forcibly evacuate the island, institutionalize its residents, and develop the island as a vacation destination. Beginning with a hurricane flood reminiscent of the story of Noah's Ark, the novel ends with yet another Ark. In prose of breathtaking beauty and power, Paul Harding brings to life an unforgettable cast of characters: Iris and Violet McDermott, sisters raising three orphaned Penobscot children; Theophilus and Candace Larks and their brood of vagabond children; the prophetic Zachary Hand to God Proverbs, a Civil War veteran who lives in a hollow tree; and more. A spellbinding story of resistance and survival, This Other Eden is an enduring testament to the struggle to preserve human dignity in the face of intolerance and injustice"-- 0

Anna Funder has written another brilliant human portrait.' - Claire Tomalin A BLAZING, GENRE-BENDING MASTERPIECE FROM ONE OF THE MOST INVENTIVE WRITERS OF OUR TIME Looking for wonder and some reprieve from the everyday, Anna Funder slips into the pages of her hero George Orwell. As she watches him create his writing self, she tries to remember her own . . . When she uncovers his forgotten wife, it's a revelation. Eileen O'Shaughnessy's literary brilliance shaped Orwell's work and her practical nous saved his life. But why - and how - was she written out of the story? Using newly discovered letters from Eileen to her best friend, Funder recreates the Orwells' marriage, through the Spanish Civil War and WW II in London. As she rolls up the screen concealing Orwell's private life she is led to question what it takes to be a writer - and what it is to be a wife. Compelling and utterly original, Wifedom speaks to the unsung work of women everywhere today, while offering a breathtakingly intimate view of one of the most important literary marriages of the 20th century. It is a book that speaks to our present moment as much as it illuminates the past. 'Simply, a masterpiece. Here, Anna Funder not only re-makes the art of biography, she resurrects a woman in full. And this in a narrative that grips the reader and unfolds through some of the most consequential moments - historical and cultural - of the twentieth century.'

Here they skilfully dissect the way in which the marketplace and the economics of publishing significantly shape the news. This book reveals how issues are framed and topics chosen, and the double standards underlying accounts of free elections, a free press, and governmental repression between Nicaragua and El Salvador; between the Russian invasion of Afghanistan and the American invasion of Vietnam; between the genocide in Cambodia under a pro-American government and genocide under Pol Pot.

The New York Times Book Review _______________________________________________________________________ #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black makes her stunning adult debut with Book of Night , a modern dark fantasy of shadowy thieves and secret societies. Charlie Hall has never found a lock she couldn't pick, a book she couldn't steal, or a bad decision she wouldn't make. She's spent half her life working for gloamists, magicians who manipulate shadows to peer into locked rooms, strangle people in their beds, or worse. Gloamists guard their secrets greedily, creating an underground economy of grimoires. And to rob their fellow magicians, they need Charlie. Now, she's trying to distance herself from past mistakes, but going straight isn't easy. Bartending at a dive, she's still entirely too close to the corrupt underbelly of the Berkshires. Not to mention that her sister Posey is desperate for magic, and that her shadowless and possibly soulless boyfriend has been keeping secrets from her. When a terrible figure from her past returns, Charlie descends back into a maelstrom of murder and lies. Determined to survive, she's up against a cast of doppelgngers, mercurial billionaires, gloamists, and the people she loves best in the world - all trying to steal a secret that will allow them control of the shadow world and more.
