David Sedaris returns with his most deeply personal and darkly hilarious book.If you've ever laughed your way through David Sedaris's cheerfully misanthropic stories, you might think you know what you're getting with Calypso. You'd be wrong.When he buys a beach house on the Carolina coast, Sedaris envisions long, relaxing vacations spent playing board games and lounging in the sun with those he loves most. And life at the Sea Section, as he names the vacation home, is exactly as idyllic as he imagined, except for one tiny, vexing realization: it's impossible to take a vacation from yourself.With Calypso, Sedaris sets his formidable powers of observation toward middle age and mortality. Make no mistake: these stories are very, very funny - it's a book that can make you laugh 'til you snort, the way only family can. Sedaris's powers of observation have never been sharper, and his ability to shock readers into laughter unparalleled. But much of the comedy here is born out of that vertiginous moment when your own body betrays you and you realize that the story of your life is made up of more past than future.This is beach reading for people who detest beaches, required reading for those who loathe small talk and love a good tumor joke. Calypso is simultaneously Sedaris's darkest and warmest book yet - and it just might be his very best.

In 2014, northeastern Syria might have been the last place you would expect to find a revolution centered on women's rights. But that year, an all-female militia faced off against ISIS in a little town few had ever heard of: Kobani. By then, the Islamic State had swept across vast swathes of the country, taking town after town and spreading terror as the civil war burned all around it. From that unlikely showdown in Kobani emerged a fighting force that would wage war against ISIS across northern Syria alongside the United States. In the process, these women would spread their own political vision, determined to make women's equality a reality by fighting - house by house, street by street, city by city - the men who bought and sold women.

El reflex dÆun jove revolucionari que enfronta tot poder i que organitza als obrers georgians per viure dÆuna altra manera.Homenatge a Stalin, critica velada? Jutja tu mateix.Mikhaïl Bulgàkov (K¡iv, 1891 - Moscou, 1940) es va llicenciar en Medicina lÆany 1916 i va exercir aquesta professió fins que va decidir abandonar-la per dedicar-se a lÆescriptura. A partir del 1921, any en què es va instal·lar a Moscou, va col·laborar en diversos diaris i va començar la seva carrera dÆescriptor. Va patir una censura sistemàtica per part de Stalin, per. va continuar traduint i escrivint teatre i literatura sotmès a una gran penúria i a unes dificultats extremes fins al final dels seus dies. Entre les seves obres, destaquen La guàrdia blanca, Cor de gos i El mestre i Margarida.«Bulgàkov és un conspirador contra el llenguatge.» Boris Groys«La seva genialitat és que la seva energia sat¡rica i les seves provocacions són tan multidireccionals que, molts anys i molts canvis de règim després, encara sembla recentment desafiant.» The Guardian«Sarcàstic i mordaç, genial.» Núvoloja luz sobre nuestro mundo».ù Yolanda D¡az«Un manifiesto tiene fuerza no porque es prescriptivo de lo que deber¡a suceder, sino porque reúne una serie de elementos que, puestos en conjunto, comprueban la existencia de ese mundo novedoso, pero ya existente.»ù Veronica Gago «Mientras que la mayor¡a de los trabajos teóricos del pasado son ahora letra muerta, las vibrantes frases de Marx y Engels seguirán sacudiendo e iluminando el próximo siglo.ù Hans Magnus Enzensberger«[El manifiesto es] un texto formidable que sabe alternar tonos apocal¡pticos e iron¡a, eslóganes eficaces y explicaciones claras, y (si la sociedad capitalista quiere realmente contarse a s¡ misma los disgustos que le han causado estas pocas páginas) todav¡a hoy deber¡a analizarse rigurosamente en las escuelas de publicidad». ù Umberto EcoPero solo una obra inmensa -que aún tiene mucho que decirnos 150 años después- podr¡a invitar a este tipo de escrutinio cr¡tico. Nada podr¡a dar un testimonio más convincente de la genialidad de El manifiesto que la energ¡a que se ha gastado en atacarlo.öù Ellen Meiksins Wood

Can you live a lie?It’s a ghost town, this place that haunts me, the one that made me.It’s clear to me that I’ll never outgrow Triple Falls or outlive the time I spent here.I can still feel them all, my boys of summer.Even when I’d sensed the danger, I gave in.I didn’t heed a single warning. I let my sickness, my love, both rule and ruin me. I played my part, eyes wide open, tempting fate until it delivered.There was never going to be an escape.All of us are to blame for what happened. All of us serving our own sentences. We were careless and reckless, thinking our youth made us indestructible, exempt from our sins, and it cost us all.I’m done pretending I didn’t leave the largest part of me between these hills and valleys, between the sea of trees that hold my secrets.It’s the reason I’m back. To make peace with my fate.And if I can’t grieve enough to cure myself in my time here, I’ll remain sick. That will be my curse.But it’s time to confess, to myself more so than any other, that I’d hindered my chances because of the way I was built, and because of the men who built me.At this point, I just want to make peace with who I am, no matter what ending I get.Because I can no longer live a lie.

Espacio vital -publicado originalmente como Elbow Room en 1977- es el epítome de lo que James Alan McPherson significó para la literatura de su tiempo, que es también el nuestro. Ser un escritor negro en los Estados Unidos marcó tanto la escritura de McPherson como la percepción que de él tuvo el mundillo literario que le tocó vivir, un mundillo en el que, a golpe de codazos, supo abrirse un espacio vital donde permitirse ser auténtico. Los doce relatos que están recogidos en este volumen, con el que McPherson se convirtió en el primer autor afroamericano en recibir un premio Pulitzer en la categoría de ficción (en 1978), continúan apelando a un mundo extrañamente familiar de desigualdades e injusticias, de violencias e incomprensiones, pero también de lucha y reivindicación. Un ejemplo irrefutable de la destreza narrativa de McPherson, con un característico tono desenfadado que rebosa humor y que acerca las historias a la narrativa oral. Espacio vital sigue interpelándonos a pesar de los años transcurridos. McPherson, en su momento, asumió la responsabilidad de concebir estas inolvidables historias, nos corresponde ahora la responsabilidad de leerlas e intentar hacer del mundo que reflejan un lugar distinto y, si tenemos un poco de suerte, un lugar mejor.

Hasta la proliferación de los populismos de derechas, los regímenes que corrompían las reglas democráticas para anular a la oposición y perpetuarse en el poder tenían fundamentalmente signo marxista. Pero el nuevo antiliberalismo nacionalista y ultraconservador, bajo la bandera de la «batalla cultural», le ha arrebatado al chavismo y al socialismo el monopolio del despotismo. El conocido ensayista José Benegas, curtido en la lucha contra los populismos latinoamericanos, desarrolla en este libro la tesis de que el tradicional eje izquierda/derecha ya no permite comprender el actual momento político. Ambos bandos comparten el gusto por los caudillos que destruyen las instituciones, y que tras haber ganado el favor popular en las urnas acaban con los métodos de control a su corrupción, convierten a los poderes legislativos en amanuenses, colocan adeptos en la justicia para blindarse ante cualquier investigación y amordazan a la prensa. Benegas desmonta las trampas retóricas con las que los regímenes populistas, auténticas dictaduras del siglo xxi, instalan el reino de su propia arbitrariedad en nombre de la democracia. Y, al refutar sus presupuestos doctrinales, echa por tierra la legitimidad de los gobiernos que plantean la concentración del poder para mostrarse como salvadores del pueblo. Pero no basta simplemente con exponer estas trampas. Si las prácticas del despotismo populista están triunfando es porque las sociedades están afectadas por una anemia respecto de las ideas de la libertad, la propiedad y el gobierno limitado. Por eso, Un mundo contaminado se propone demostrar que la idea del gobierno como gran benefactor es un mantra a izquierda y derecha que contradice el principio democrático del verdadero autogobierno. Este libro es una contribución inestimable a la causa de la recuperación de la democracia liberal y la institucionalidad perdidas, y del restablecimiento de las bases jurídicas, políticas y éticas de una sociedad libre.

Cuando David Hockney descubrió el iPhone como medio artístico, se abrieron posibilidades totalmente nuevas para su arte. Hizo sus primeros dibujos digitales la primavera de 2009, describiendo el paisaje matutino con líneas anchas y deslumbrantes colores directamente en una pantalla que ofrecía matices sutiles como expresiones de pura luz sin mezclas. Después, en 2010, Hockney empezó a trabajar con un iPad. Gracias a la pantalla más grande, amplió su repertorio artístico y permitió una interacción aún más compleja de luz, línea y color.Cada imagen de este libro capta un momento fugaz visto a través de una ventana de la casa de Hockney en Yorkshire: desde el vibrante amanecer y el cielo lila de la mañana hasta las apacibles impresiones nocturnas o la repentina llegada de la primavera. Detalles fascinantes revelan gotas en los cristales de las ventanas, luces distantes en la noche, reflejos en jarrones, o una abundante y variada vegetación en el alféizar. En 120 dibujos realizados entre 2009 y 2012, seleccionados y secuenciados por el propio artista, experimentamos el paso del tiempo a través de los ojos de David Hockney.Este libro de artista, que apareció por primera vez en una exclusiva edición firmada, vuelve ahora en tirada ilimitada y con un generoso formato XL que muestra las impresiones de Hockney en brillante resolución. Así que ahora es la ocasión perfecta para hacer caso al consejo del crítico del Times sobre este libro: ''Si quiere que David Hockney le regale un ramo de flores, esta es su oportunidad.''
