UNA NOVELA TOTAL SOBRE LA GUERRA CIVIL ESPAÑOLA EN CLAVE DE REALISMO MÁGICOHe aquí la historia de la descomposición total de una familia, de la deshumanización de un pueblo, de la desintegración de un territorio y de una península de casas vacías.La historia de un soldado que se raja la piel para dejar salir la ceniza acumulada, de un poeta que cose la sombra de una niña tras un bombardeo, y de un maestro que enseña a sus alumnos a hacerse los muertos; de un general que duerme junto a la mano cortada de una santa, de un niño ciego que recupera la vista durante un apagón, y de una campesina que pinta de negro todos los árboles de su huerto; de un fotógrafo extranjero que pisa una mina cerca de Brunete y no levanta el pie en cuarenta años, de un gernikarra que conduce hasta el centro de París una camioneta con los restos humeantes de un ataque aéreo, y de un perro herido cuya sangre teñirá la última franja de una bandera abandonada en Badajoz.He aquí pues la historia total de la Guerra Civil española y de una Iberia agonizante donde lo fantástico apuntala la crudeza de lo real; donde los anónimos miembros de un extenso clan de olivareros de Jándula cruzan sus destinos con los de Alberti, Lorca y Unamuno; Rodoreda, Zambrano y Kent; Hemingway, Orwell y Bernanos; Picasso y Mallo; Azaña y Foxá; donde lo épico y lo costumbrista se entrelazan para tejer un portentoso tapiz, poético y grotesco, bello y delirante.«Con una prosa imprevista, tan original como desacomplejada, David Uclés es un auténtico soplo de aire fresco en las letras españolas».Pablo Martín Sánchez

Con motivo de los 50 ańos de la aparición de la novela Pedro Páramo, del escritor mexicano Juan Rulfo (1917-1986), la Fundación que lleva su nombre ha concedido a la editorial RM Verlag los derechos editoriales para la publicación de la versión original de este clásico de la literatura latinoamericana. Desde su primera aparición en 1955 se han prodigado diversas ediciones y más de 50 traducciones, pero la presente versión es la única avalada por la Fundación Juan Rulfo, garante de la fidelidad e integridad de la obra.Desde su aparición, Pedro Páramo provocó una convulsión en el panorama literario de la época. En sus aspectos formales, la novela desorientó a los lectores acostumbrados a la unidad de estilo, espacio y tiempo de la novela decimonónica. Pedro Páramo, por el contrario, ofrecía una aparente falta de unidad del texto, una composición desordenada, la ausencia de un argumento central, la aparición de continuas elipsis y la aparición de unos personajes en ocasiones fantasmagóricos.En cuanto a su contenido, Pedro Páramo logró retratar de manera lúcida y penetrante el espíritu y la idiosincrasia del pueblo mexicano. Las principales fuentes de Rulfo para componer esta obra fueron, sin duda alguna, su formación como lector, su interés por la historia, la antropología y el estudio de las culturas y las gentes de México. Siempre dedicó gran parte de sus lecturas a este ámbito, asistió como oyente a la Universidad y dedicó gran parte de su juventud a recorrer los rincones más interesantes de su país.

This stunning special edition features a ribbon bookmark, holographic foil, designed endpapers, a printed edge design, and a naked hardcase.New York Times bestselling author Lucy Score brings you a grumpy/sunshine romance guaranteed to knock you out.

Not just from her fiancé and a church full of well-wishers, but from her entire life. Although if you ask her, Naomi's riding to the rescue of her estranged hot mess of a twin, Tina, to Knockemout, a rough-around-the-edges town where disputes are settled the old-fashioned way...with fists and beer. Usually in that order.Too bad for Naomi, her evil twin hasn't changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi's car and cash, Tina leaves behind something unexpected: the niece Naomi didn't know she had. Now she's a guardian to an eleven-year-old-going-on-thirty with no car, no money, and no plan.There's a reason this bearded, bad-boy barber doesn't get involved with high-maintenance women, especially not Type-A romantic ones. But since Naomi's life imploded right in front of him, the least Knox can do is help her out of her jam. And just as soon as she stops getting into new trouble, he can leave her alone and get back to his quiet, solitary life.At least, that's the plan.
When orphan Maria arrives at Moonacre Manor, she feels like she's come home. Her new guardian is kind, like an old friend. However, beneath the beauty and comfort lies a tragedy. Maria is determined to find out about it, change it, and give her own life story a happy ending.

Sicarias o universitarias, influencers o amas de casa, beatas o prostitutas: mujeres decididas a pelear antes que ser víctimasLas heroínas de Perras de reserva son mujeres fuertes, decididas a resolver por sí mismas sus problemas porque saben que si con algo no pueden contar es con la ayuda de Dios. Como mucho, se encomiendan al Diablo, ya que ante la perspectiva de convertirse en víctimas ?usadas, explotadas o muertas? prefieren optar por la sangre ajena. Como Yuliana, la macabramente entrañable heredera al trono de un capo del narcotráfico, que no va a aceptar que sus compa.eras de escuela se burlen de su look. O la adolescente que antes de dejarse arrinconar por la pobreza y el hambre se vuelve una malandrina de calle con principios, que solo desvalija a gente bien. O la bruja que recurre al Señor de las Tinieblas para que le ayude con la vecina cuyos perros hacen sus necesidades en su patio.Sean sicarias o universitarias, influencers o amas de casa, beatas o prostitutas, las memorables protagonistas de estos relatos comparten las dificultades y los peligros derivados de haber nacido mujer, y los enfrentan con los recursos que la vida les ofrece, obligadas una y otra vez a dirimir dónde se sitúa la frontera entre el bien y el mal. Y nos cuentan sus vidas siempre en primera persona, haciéndonos parte íntima de su forma de habitar el mundo. Con un talento desbordante para reflejar el habla de la calle y no pocas dosis de humor negro, la autora mexicana Dahlia de la Cerda nos recuerda en este genial libro que «la vida es una perra, por eso hay que patearle la jaula».«Este libro tiene la fuerza de una barranquera de agua: arrastra, ensucia y limpia a partes iguales».br>Andrea Abreu«Un pequeño monumento a la literatura transgresora, dura ysuave, romántica y dolorosa. Una concatenación narrativa deliciosa, donde lo popular, superfluo y banal se convierte en trascendente, en dolorosa crítica social».br> Gerardo Lima Molina, Tierra Adentro
* SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2024 BOOKER PRIZE * Longlisted for the 2025 Aspen Words Literary Prize - A Best Book of 2024: The New York Times, The Washington Post, Time, The Globe and Mail (Toronto), Kirkus Reviews, BookPage, The Sunday Times (London) "Remarkable...Compelling...Fine and taut...Indelible." -The New York Times - "Moving, unnerving, and deeply sexy." -Tracy Chevalier, author of Girl with the Pearl Earring - "A brilliant debut, as multi-faceted as a gem." -Kirkus Reviews A "razor-sharp, perfectly plotted" (The Sunday Times, London) tale of desire, suspicion, and obsession between two women staying in the same house in the Dutch countryside during the summer of 1961-a powerful exploration of the legacy of WWII and the darker parts of our collective past.A house is a precious thing... It is 1961 and the rural Dutch province of Overijssel is quiet. Bomb craters have been filled, buildings reconstructed, and the war is truly over. Living alone in her late mother's country home, Isabel knows her life is as it should be-led by routine and discipline. But all is upended when her brother Louis brings his graceless new girlfriend Eva, leaving her at Isabel's doorstep as a guest, to stay for the season. Eva is Isabel's antithesis: she sleeps late, walks loudly through the house, and touches things she shouldn't. In response, Isabel develops a fury-fueled obsession, and when things start disappearing around the house-a spoon, a knife, a bowl-Isabel's suspicions begin to spiral. In the sweltering peak of summer, Isabel's paranoia gives way to infatuation, leading to a discovery that unravels all Isabel has ever known. The war might not be well and truly over after all, and neither Eva-nor the house in which they live-are what they seem. Mysterious, sophisticated, sensual, and infused with intrigue, atmosphere, and sex, The Safekeep is "a brave and thrilling debut about facing up to the truth of history, and to one's own desires" (The Guardian).
