Cover of Corazón tan blanco

Corazón tan blanco

Javier Marías

«No he querido saber, pero he sabido que una de las niñas, cuando ya no era niña y no hacía mucho que había regresado de su viaje de bodas, entró en el cuarto de baño, se puso frente al espejo, se abrió la blusa, se quitó el sostén y se buscó el corazón con la punta de la pistola...» Así comienza esta novela magistral de Javier Marías. Pero «eso fue hace mucho tiempo», según añade el narrador: ahora es él quien está recién casado, con Luisa, y en su propio viaje de novios, estando en La Habana, ve desde el balcón de su hotel a una mujer desconocida que espera en la calle y que durante unos segundos lo confundirá con la persona con quien se ha citado. A partir de entonces el narrador sentirá un creciente e inexplicable malestar («presentimientos de desastre») ante su recién inaugurado matrimonio, e intuirá que la explicación tal vez esté en el pasado y por tanto en su propio origen, ya que su padre, Ranz, hubo de casarse tres veces para que él pudiera nacer. Lejos del investigador, el narrador de esta novela es, por el contrario, un hombre que prefiere no saber, consciente de lo peligroso que resulta escuchar y de que, una vez oídas las cosas, ya no pueden olvidarse. La vigorosa e hipnótica prosa de Javier Marías configura en espiral esta extraordinaria novela en la que están presentes los grandes temas de su narrativa: el secreto y su posible conveniencia, el matrimonio, el asesinato, la instigación, la sospecha, el hablar y el callar, y los corazones que poco a poco se van tiñendo y acaban sabiendo lo que nunca quisieron saber. Editada en 44 países y traducida a 37 idiomas, con 2.300.000 ejemplares vendidos en todo el mundo, Corazón tan blanco fue premiada internacionalmente, suscitó la aclamación de la crítica más exigente y el entusiasmo de los lectores, sin distinción de lenguas, para convertirse en un clásico de nuestros días.

Cover of Untamed

Untamed

Alan Hirsch and Debra Hirsch

Discipleship is costly. Are we willing to critique and even challenge much we've been taught for the sake of the kingdom? For this is the radical nature of the discipleship to which Jesus calls us. He did not allow the outside culture to hold him captive; instead he established the kingdom of God and turned the world on its head. Jesus was untamed, and he calls his church to be the same. In this provocative and compelling book, internationally known missiologists Alan and Debra Hirsch overthrow culturized understandings of theology and culture, and cast a vision for a distinctly mission-shaped way of living the Christian life. Written for any Christian serious about issue of discipleship, Untamed covers such topics as church, humans as bearers of the image of God, family life, culture, and sexuality. Through it all they seek to answer the question, how are we to think and live day to day as followers of Jesus? Each chapter ends with suggested practices to help readers begin to live out the book's principles as well as questions for group discussion.

A better father

Kris Fletcher

"Becoming a single dad was never hockey star Sam Catalano's game plan. Now he's turning his world upside down to give his two-year-old son, Casey, the best life he can. And buying his own childhood camp seems like the perfect way to do it. At least until he comes face-to-face with his new assistant director, and old camp flame, Libby Kovak. Sam can't afford to be distracted by Libby or the constant reminders of the passion they shared. His only priority is protecting Casey and making the transition as smooth as possible. But Sam's starting to believe that the most valuable thing he can give his son, and himself, is a life with Libby in it"--Publisher.
