New York Times bestselling author Kay Hooper weaves a tale of secrets, seduction, and a love that will not be denied in this spellbinding Once Upon a Time novel. It’s public knowledge in Richmond that the only wife the infamous Cyrus Fortune wants is one who belongs to some other man. He has a knack for sensing an unhappy bride—and a talent for showing her what she needs to be happy. Obsessed with uncovering the circumstances of his own mysterious birth and the father he never knew, Cyrus doesn’t have the time or patience for a serious romance. Even so, an intelligent man knows when he’s at the crossroads of destiny, the moment when everything in his life changes. For Cyrus, that’s when he meets Julia Drummond. Julia Drummond is painfully aware that no red-blooded woman should be able to deny the sensual assault of Cyrus Fortune, who wears power and influence like a finely tailored suit, and whose eyes promise passionate seduction. Still, she says no. She’s got her reasons—dangerous reasons—and yet she can’t trust her own body and heart from surrendering to the astonishing pleasure Cyrus reminds her she’s capable of simply when his knowing gaze meets hers...

Afraid to admit her love life is a total disaster, Meredith blurts out that she’s seriously involved with a very special man—a boatbuilder in Maine.

Being hounded by the press about some imaginary engagement to a woman he’s only met once—and couldn’t stand—isn’t one of them. Then Meredith actually shows up at his cabin in Blue Hill, Maine, with an apology, a pot roast, and a proposal—play along until she secures her TV deal, and she’ll help him win back his ex.

En la actual República Popular China, tras el aparente abandono de la confusa utopía de la revolución maoísta por un capitalismo autoritario, el ideario de Mao Zedong sigue muy presente. Dada la actual relación entre el gigante asiático y Occidente, comprender la historia del maoísmo global y cómo se extendió por todo el mundo es clave para entender los desafíos contemporáneos. Motor decisivo en la guerra de Vietnam, talismán de la resistencia anticolonialista en África, en ocasiones germen del terrorismo en Alemania e Italia y de las guerrillas en Perú, India y Nepal, el poder y el atractivo del movimiento maoísta rebasó las fronteras de China y suscitó un fervor extraordinario en amplias zonas...

¿Estamos ante el fin de las relaciones amorosas tal y como las conocemos? Desde la época de las cavernas hasta los tiempos de Tinder, el amor ha estado presente a lo largo de toda la historia. Es el sentimiento más universal que existe y es que, aunque pueda hacernos sufrir, también puede ser el más maravilloso. Por eso, los seres humanos vivimos y nos relacionamos con un único objetivo: amar y ser amados.

In this moving story about losing and finding love again, a woman sets out to find the perfect matches for those closest to her. 48-year-old Nantucketer Dabney Kimball Beech has always had a gift for matchmaking. Some call her ability mystical, while others, her husband, celebrated economist John Boxmiller Beech, and her daughter, Agnes, who is clearly engaged to the wrong man, call it meddlesome. But there's no arguing with her results: With 42 happy couples to her credit and all of them still together, Dabney has never been wrong about romance. Never, that is, except in the case of herself and Clendenin Hughes, the green-eyed boy who took her heart with him long ago when he left the island to pursue his dream of becoming a journalist. Now, after spending 27 years on the other side of the world, Clen is back on Nantucket, and Dabney has never felt so confused, or so alive. But when tragedy threatens her own second chance, Dabney must face the choices she's made and share painful secrets with her family. Determined to make use of her gift before it's too late, she sets out to find perfect matches for those she loves most.

Insolación

Autor: Emilia Pardo Bazán (condesa De)

Número de Páginas: 764

Emilia Pardo Bazán publica "Insolación" cuando ya había sido reconocida como gran novelista tras el éxito de las narraciones de "Los Pazos de Ulloa" y "La Madre Naturaleza". Sus conocimientos sobre la novela europea la llevan entonces a la tribuna del Ateneo y comienza a enviar crónicas de su viaje a Italia a "El Imparcial". "Insolación" es, según su autora, un "estudio episódico". La inexorable premisa naturalista está ausente en esta novela, la presencia del mundo exterior es mas relevante y está subordinada al mundo íntimo de las criaturas literarias. Esto se plasmará en el empleo de una inusitada y más compleja técnica narrativa, de la que el episodio de la Marquesa de Andrade será el inicio de una fase de narración más espiritualista en el sostenido realismo de Emilia Pardo Bazán.

The Secret Sex of Money

Autor: Clara Coria

Número de Páginas: 147

The Secret Sex of Money throws the spotlight on female forms of dependence such as Money, Sex, Power and Subordination. As has always been the case, economic independence is no guarantee of a woman's autonomy. This book offers a lucid analysis of money from the Western perspective of relationships between women and men in the context of a patriarchal culture; relationships that are sometimes governed by power and domination, even in the innermost recesses of our daily lives. Clara Coria denounces the discrimination that women face in their acquisition, management and production of money. A controversial book that provides an insight as to how power relations between men and women are expressed, even in the most intimate aspects of everyday life. Indispensable for understanding the sensitive issues that profoundly affect both sexes. The Secret Sex of Money takes a fresh integrated approach to examining the relationship between women and men and demonstrates how, confined within the walls of a patriarchal model, power relations force women to bring up the rear. A book that reveals the hitherto unexplored implications of money management in the realm of the couple. Work published...

En Clemente: la pasión y el donaire del ultimo héroe del béisbol, David Maraniss revive magistralmente al extraordinario deportista valiéndose de una narración de gran vuelo y de meticulosos detalles para captar, a un tiempo, al hombre y al mito. El último día de 1972, después de dieciocho magníficas temporadas en las grandes ligas, Roberto Clemente murió como un héroe al estrellarse el avión en que llevaba alimentos y suministros médicos a Nicaragua luego de un devastador terremoto. Cualquiera que vio jugar a Clemente, nunca podría olvidarlo: era una obra de arte en un juego que con demasiada frecuencia se define por las estadísticas. Durante su carrera con los Piratas de Pittsburg, ganó cuatro títulos de bateo y llevó a su equipo a los campeonatos de 1960 y 1971. Su carrera concluyó con tres mil hits, y él y Lou Gehrig son los únicos jugadores en la historia del béisbol cuya consagración en el Pabellón de la Fama no tomó en cuenta los tradicionales cinco años de espera. Pero Roberto Clemente fue un atleta singular que transcendió el ámbito de los deportes para convertirse en un símbolo de causas mayores. Nacido en Carolina, Puerto Rico, en 1934, una...

Identidad personal y donación

Autor: Ana Álvarez Garrido

Número de Páginas: 433

"Identidad personal y donación. La configuración del yo en la acción dramática", de Ana Álvarez Garrido, relata como un deseo de verdad y una intuición genuina, unidos a la insatisfacción acerca de las corrientes dominantes en el estudio de la identidad personal, llevaron a su autora a iniciar este trabajo. Con una pregunta casi infantil, por su atrevimiento y por la esperanza que la anima de una respuesta justa, se abre esta aventura de la búsqueda del yo, a la que es invitado el lector desde la primera página: ¿Quién soy yo? Este interrogante nos conduce, atravesando el fuego positivo de la duda, a veces de tintes narrativos, hasta un espacio y un tiempo capaces de vestir al yo, de darle una voz y un gesto únicos, capaces de regalarle un nombre. Un teatro será ese lugar donde Yo puedo ser y donde vengo a ser Yo, porque en él se puede representar una acción esencial. Ésta, como el yo, se revelará al final de nuestra aventura investigadora, sorprendente y deliberadamente dramática. Como la vida misma.

Es verdad que el cine se parece a un espejo, y que lo que la pantalla recibe del proyector no es más que un juego de fulgores y destellos, pero la luz que se le devuelve a cada espectador es otra muy distinta porque pasa por el riguroso filtro de sus sueños, y probablemente no hay nada más verdadero que eso. Pero al otro lado del espejo está lo que no vemos, la carne y el hueso de esas sombras que llamamos estrellas de cine, las que se pasean por los festivales como si fueran personas de verdad con las que poder charlar y hasta comer una paella, o incluso emborracharse, para mostrarse al final tal cual son, sin peluquería ni maquillaje: los dioses y los monstruos de la historia del cine. A su lado y entre bastidores se asoma la mirada de Joan Lluís Goas, la persona que los acompaña durante muchos años en reuniones, festivales, cenas y fiestas, para destilar aquí, por fin, de cada una de ellos, estas semblanzas tan inverosímiles a veces, pero tan reales. Goas perfila una divertida crónica que no se deja cegar por la anécdota. Él sabe dónde buscar la humanidad, la modestia o la vanidad de esos dioses y monstruos que se delatan como cualquiera en cada gesto y en cada...
