Gitana mia

Pasiones sofocadas, encuentros inesperados y la lucha por alcanzar al ser amado acompañarán al lector a lo largo de Gitana mía.

Una historia de conspiraciones, venganzas, amor y odio a fines del siglo XIX en una Guatemala que pretende subir al tren del liberalismo pero que vive sometida al yugo del dictador.

Permitiéndose las licencias históricas que la ficción autoriza, Anabella Giracca mueve con estilo y comodidad a unos personajes atrapados por el deseo, la ira y la impotencia.

Reconocía, hasta con cierta gracia, que las maldiciones gitanas y los falsos presagios eran buena adarga para sobrevivir. Pero esta vez se estremeció por tener que arrinconar sus engaños y leer un destino que la incluiría...

El destino de los dos hermanos y sobrinos del presidente de la República, Julián y Leandro, parece estar marcado por el capricho del Patrón, quien dispone a su antojo de todo y todos los que están bajo su control.

El país que dirige como si fuera su finca se debate entre alcanzar una modernidad que exige el fin de siglo, o aferrarse a la tradición en la que se siente muy cómodo. El clan de gitanos del patriarca Rupa Kari, atraído por los aires de prosperidad, se instala en las afueras de la ciudad de Guatemala. Sus jóvenes están destinados a proveer la fuerza física que ayudará a construir el ferrocarril. El resto de los romaníes atenderá a la población con diversiones y prácticas adivinatorias que incidirán en el desarrollo de los acontecimientos.

Aprendiendo a decir adiós vio la luz hace diez años y empezó a iluminar a sus lectores¿Cómo enfrentar espiritualmente la muerte? ¿Qué puedes decir a los padres frente a su pequeño hijo sin vida? ¿Qué palabras son las apropiadas para la familia de una joven cuya vida es arrancada cuando no había llegado a su plenitud? ¿Qué decir a una joven viuda y sus pequeños hijos que no entienden por qué "eso" le pasó a un hombre bueno? ¿Por qué él o ella? ¿Por qué justo ahora? ¿Cómo Dios puede hacer esto a una persona noble y dejar vivir a tantos malvados? ¿Por qué él y no yo?El libro de Marcelo Rittner te dice cómo el dolor "que te ciega, te enfurece" es un sentimiento que tienes que vencer para convertirlo en un camino de liberación, para darte cuenta de que la esencia de ese ser querido, ese amigo, ese conocido, sigue acompañándote, guiándote, y de que realmente no lo has perdido. Aprenderás a agradecer a Dios, pues te enseñará que Él nunca te coloca pruebas que no puedas enfrentar; que el tiempo solo no cura; y que es la lealtad a la vida la que nos permite aprender a decir adiós.

Nosotras

Edición especial de uno de los libros fundamentales de Rosa Montero, Premio Nacional de las Letras 2017. Una obra pionera en la reivindicación del papel de la mujer en la historia a través de las biografías de sus protagonistas. Ilustrada por María Herreros.

«Este libro no es un libro solo para mujeres, de la misma manera que el feminismo no es solo cosa de chicas. Estamos cambiando el mundo, estamos destruyendo estereotipos milenarios, y es evidente que si se altera el papel social femenino, es porque también muda el papel de los hombres.»

Incluye el texto original de Historias de mujeres, publicado hace veinticuatro años, y añade noventa nuevos pequeños retratos, una ojeada rápida desde la antigüedad hasta nuestros días que nos permite atisbar la compleja riqueza de la aportación femenina a la vida común. Porque hay una historia que no está en la historia y que solo se puede rescatar aguzando el oído y escuchando el susurro de las mujeres. La porción invisible del iceberg de protagonistas silenciadas empieza a emerger ahora, y tiene unas dimensiones colosales. Ha habido mujeres en todas las épocas haciendo cosas memorables. No hay un solo campo social, artístico o del conocimiento en el que no hayamos destacado. Y se trata de un pasado que nos han robado a todos.

Los barcos se pierden en tierra

Los barcos se pierden en tierra ofrece no solo un insólito goce náutico sino una aproximación iluminadora a la personalidad y el mundo del escritor a través de la que quizá sea la mayor de sus pasiones.

«El mar restalla en las cuartillas que tengo sobre la mesa y que el viento agita blancas como penachos de espuma. Son las páginas de Los barcos se pierden en tierra, este libro que recoge textos y artículos de Arturo Pérez-Reverte sobre mares y marinos, varios de ellos bien conocidos de los que le seguimos, otros inéditos. La mayoría procedentes de ese espacio tan refrescante y contumaz que es su colaboración en el XL Semanal, "Patente de corso". Ahora todos juntos componen una poderosa y homogénea escuadra que ofrece no solo un insólito goce náutico sino una aproximación iluminadora a la personalidad y el mundo del escritor a través de la que quizá sea la mayor de sus pasiones.

»En esta gozosa travesía encuadernada hay pasajes de un conmovedor lirismo, como el relato de la primera vez que el autor observó una ballena; episodios de gran ternura, como el de su hija nadando entre delfines; melancólicas estampas de puertos; o, en el otro extremo, están los textos hilarantes del Pérez-Reverte iconoclasta, gamberro y cachondo. Las bromas a costa del brazo de Nelson, las diatribas contra los ingleses o los domingueros del mar, las motos de agua y los pijoyates.

»Pasen la página y disfruten de cómo sopla el viento en las jarcias, bajo las estrellas.»

The Last Thing He Told Me

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BLOCKBUSTER * REESE WITHERSPOON BOOK CLUB PICK * NOW AN APPLE TV+ LIMITED SERIES STARRING JENNIFER GARNER * MORE THAN 2 MILLION COPIES SOLD

The “page-turning, exhilarating” (PopSugar) and “heartfelt thriller” (Real Simple) about a woman who thinks she’s found the love of her life—until he disappears.

Before Owen Michaels disappears, he smuggles a note to his beloved wife of one year: Protect her. Despite her confusion and fear, Hannah Hall knows exactly to whom the note refers—Owen’s sixteen-year-old daughter, Bailey. Bailey, who lost her mother tragically as a child. Bailey, who wants absolutely nothing to do with her new stepmother.

As Hannah’s increasingly desperate calls to Owen go unanswered, as the FBI arrests Owen’s boss, as a US marshal and federal agents arrive at her Sausalito home unannounced, Hannah quickly realizes her husband isn’t who he said he was. And that Bailey just may hold the key to figuring out Owen’s true identity—and why he really disappeared.

Hannah and Bailey set out to discover the truth. But as they start putting together the pieces of Owen’s past, they soon realize they’re also building a new future—one neither of them could have anticipated.

With its breakneck pacing, dizzying plot twists, and evocative family drama, The Last Thing He Told Me is a “page-turning, exhilarating, and unforgettable” (PopSugar) suspense novel.

The City We Became

Three-time Hugo Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author N.K. Jemisin crafts her most incredible novel yet, a "glorious" story of culture, identity, magic, and myths in contemporary New York City.

In Manhattan, a young grad student gets off the train and realizes he doesn't remember who he is, where he's from, or even his own name. But he can sense the beating heart of the city, see its history, and feel its power.

In the Bronx, a Lenape gallery director discovers strange graffiti scattered throughout the city, so beautiful and powerful it's as if the paint is literally calling to her.

In Brooklyn, a politician and mother finds she can hear the songs of her city, pulsing to the beat of her Louboutin heels.

And they're not the only ones.

Every great city has a soul. Some are ancient as myths, and others are as new and destructive as children. New York? She's got six.

Darius the great is not okay

Darius doesn't think he'll ever be enough, in America or in Iran. Hilarious and heartbreaking, this unforgettable debut introduces a brilliant new voice in contemporary YA.

Winner of the William C. Morris Debut Award

“Heartfelt, tender, and so utterly real. I’d live in this book forever if I could.”
—Becky Albertalli, award-winning author of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda

Darius Kellner speaks better Klingon than Farsi, and he knows more about Hobbit social cues than Persian ones. He’s a Fractional Persian—half, his mom’s side—and his first-ever trip to Iran is about to change his life.

Darius has never really fit in at home, and he’s sure things are going to be the same in Iran. His clinical depression doesn’t exactly help matters, and trying to explain his medication to his grandparents only makes things harder. Then Darius meets Sohrab, the boy next door, and everything changes. Soon, they’re spending their days together, playing soccer, eating faludeh, and talking for hours on a secret rooftop overlooking the city’s skyline. Sohrab calls him Darioush—the original Persian version of his name—and Darius has never felt more like himself than he does now that he’s Darioush to Sohrab.

Faye has loved Jack since they were students at business school. Jack, the perpetual golden boy, grew up wealthy, unlike Faye, who has worked hard to bury a dark past.

When the business took off, Faye stayed home and cared for their daughter.

Now, she is wealthier than she ever imagined, but more and more removed from the excitement of the business world. And none of the perks of wealth make up for the fact that Jack has begun to treat her coldly. When Faye discovers that he's having an affair, the polished façade of their life cracks wide open. Faye is alone, emotionally shattered, and financially devastated—but hell hath no fury like a woman with a violent past bent on vengeance. Jack is about to get exactly what he deserves—and so much more. In this splashy, electrifying story of sex, betrayal, and secrets, a woman's revenge is a brutal but beautiful thing.

Tokyo Ever After

Izumi Tanaka has never really felt like she fit in—it isn’t easy being Japanese American in her small, mostly white, northern California town. Raised by a single mother, it’s always been Izumi—or Izzy, because “It’s easier this way”—and her mom against the world. But then Izumi discovers a clue to her previously unknown father’s identity…and he’s none other than the Crown Prince of Japan. Which means outspoken, irreverent Izzy is literally a princess.

In a whirlwind, Izumi travels to Japan to meet the father she never knew and discover the country she always dreamed of. But being a princess isn’t all ball gowns and tiaras. There are conniving cousins, a hungry press, a scowling but handsome bodyguard who just might be her soulmate, and thousands of years of tradition and customs to learn practically overnight.

Izumi soon finds herself caught between worlds, and between versions of herself—back home, she was never “American” enough, and in Japan, she must prove she’s “Japanese” enough. Will Izumi crumble under the weight of the crown, or will she live out her fairy tale, happily ever after?

Velvet Was the Night

Mexico in the 1970s is a dangerous country, even for Maite, a secretary who spends her life seeking the romance found in cheap comic books and ignoring the activists protesting around the city. When her next-door neighbor, the beautiful art student Leonora, disappears under suspicious circumstances, Maite finds herself searching for the missing woman—and journeying deeper into Leonora’s secret life of student radicals and dissidents.

Mexico in the 1970s is a politically fraught land, even for Elvis, a goon with a passion for rock ’n’ roll who knows more about kidney-smashing than intrigue. When Elvis is assigned to find Leonora, he begins a blood-soaked search for the woman—and his soul.

Swirling in parallel trajectories, Maite and Elvis attempt to discover the truth behind Leonora’s disappearance, encountering hitmen, government agents, and Russian spies. Because Mexico in the 1970s is a noir, where life is cheap and the price of truth is high.

Vita nova

Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature

In Vita Nova, Pulitzer-Prize winning poet Louise Glück manages the apparently impossible: a terrifying act of perspective that brings into resolution the smallest human hope and the vast forces that shape and thwart it

Since Ararat in 1990, Louise Glück has been exploring a form that is, according to the poet, Robert Hass, her invention. Vita Nova--like its immediate predecessors, a booklength sequence--combines the ecstatic utterance of The Wild Iris with the worldly dramas elaborated in Meadowlands. Vita Nova is a book that exists in the long moment of spring: a book of deaths and beginnings, resignation and hope; brutal, luminous, and far-seeing.

Like late Yeats, Vita Nova dares large statement. By turns stern interlocutor and ardent novitiate, Glück compasses the essential human paradox. In Vita Nova, Louise Glück manages the apparently impossible: a terrifying act of perspective that brings into resolution the smallest human hope and the vast forces that thwart and shape it.

The seven ages

Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature

The masterful collection from the acclaimed Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Wild Iris and Vita Nova

Louise Glück has long practiced poetry as a species of clairvoyance. She began as Cassandra, at a distance, in league with the immortal; to read her books sequentially is to chart the oracle’s metamorphosis into unwilling vessel, reckless, mortal and crude. The Seven Ages is Glück’s ninth book, her strangest and most bold. In it she stares down her own death, and, in doing do, forces endless superimpositions of the possible on the impossible—an act that simultaneously defies and embraces the inevitable, and is, finally, mimetic. over and over, at each wild leap or transformation, flames shoot up the reader’s spine.
