About this book

Luis Velez de Guevara - como dije en otra ocasion[1] - fue tan pobre, que bien puede dudarse si en algun tiempo de su vida llego a tener dos trajes en mediano uso; pero, en cambio, a los doscientos y mas anos de su muerte tiene dos biografias diversas: la que le inventaron algunos escritores, que es la mas conocida[2], y la que despacio y a retazuelos, como de limosna, pero solidamente, le vamos escribiendo algunos investigadores de nuestra historia literaria[3].

Web of silk

Yvonne Whittal

There was no denying that Carl Ziegler was sensationally attractive, nor that he was very attracted to her — but where was that going to get her? Morgan Field wondered ruefully. For if she gave in to him he would break her heart and then walk away from her; he was emphatic that the last thing he wanted was any kind of commitment to any woman. Even so, how dared he use her as a cover-up for his affair with a married woman? Would Morgan ever manage to escape from this silken web he had woven around her?

Palafox

Eric Chevillard

"Eric Chevillard's visionary play of word and thought has been compared to the work of Beckett, Michaux, and Pinget, yet the universe he spins is utterly his own. Palafox (Editions de Minuit, 1990), Chevillard's third novel of eleven, explores the ecosystem of an unclassifiable yet enchanting protean creature, Palafox. A team of experts armed with degrees of higher learning is determined to label, train, baptize, and realize the elusive creature, while Palafox effortlessly and wordlessly defies them all."--Jacket.

Eleanor

Rhoda Lerman

In the summer of 1918, thirty-three-year-old Eleanor Roosevelt discovers a packet of love letters in her husband's chiffonier at her rented Washington home. Franklin is touring the recent battlefields of Europe and the children are staying at Hyde Park. How Eleanor changes over the course of the summer will become legendary, as she knows what she is but not what she can become.

Dear shameless death

Latife Tekin

"This is the strange, magical story of a young girl growing up in modern Turkey, from her birth in a small rural village haunted by fairies and demons to her traumatic move to the big city. Based on her own childhood experiences, Latife Tekin's literary debut marked a turning point in Turkish fiction." "Concentrating on a daughter's struggle against her overbearing mother set against the pressures of a rapidly changing society, Dear Shameless Death is a fantastic, hallucinatory novel, with strong feminist insights about what it means to be a woman growing up in Turkey today."--BOOK JACKET.
