Download or read book Burnt Sugar Cana Quemada written by Lori Marie Carlson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-08-07 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here are the sights, sounds, and rhythms of Cuba, revealed in the evocative works of some of the finest Cuban and Cuban American poets of the twentieth century. In Burnt Sugar, bestselling translator Lori Marie Carlson and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Oscar Hijuelos have created an intimate collection of some of their favorite modern poems, all of which are informed by cubanía -- the essence of what it means to be Cuban. "Cuban" in this sense refers neither to ideology nor to geography but rather to the distinguishing characteristics of Cuban poetry as it has developed over time: clever verbal play, overt rhythmic notes, and an intensity of longing, whether religious, political, or amorous. Many of these poems have never been translated into English before, and taken together they, as the editors say, "produce a vibrant, satisfying sound and vivid imagery. They allow for some understanding of modern-day preoccupations, contradictions, feelings, and attitudes considered to be Cuban." Stirring, immediate, and universal in its sensibility, Burnt Sugar is a luminous collection lovingly compiled by two of the world's foremost authorities on the subject.

Download or read book El a o que viene tambi n en Jerusal n written by Juan JosŽ Mateos Sol’s and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-03-17 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los judíos son probablemente el pueblo que más ha sufrido en toda la historia de la Humanidad. Durante 19 siglos han sido odiados, perseguidos, expulsados, torturados y masacrados como ninguna otra nación. El motivo: la acusación lanzada por los cristianos de que ellos habían asesinado a Jesucristo. En respuesta a semejante estupidez y sin ir dialécticamente más lejos, cabe entender que la Iglesia Católica, hasta hace pocos años, hubiera llevado también a la hoguera a Jesús de Nazaret, a los 12 apóstoles y a centenares de mártires del primitivo cristianismo; sencillamente porque todos ellos eran igualmente judíos. Un grupo de viajeros visita ese rincón del mundo, donde a duras penas dejan sobrevivir a los hebreos, al tiempo que se pregunta la verdadera razón de tanto odio por parte de musulmanes, pseudoizquierdistas y falsos progresistas hacia un pueblo que nunca hizo un daño particularmente significativo a nadie.

Si es así, usted podría ser uno de los millones de personas que padecen una afección médica grave conocida como el síndrome de nariz vacía (SNV), una complicación de la cirugía. Los síntomas del SNV incluyen dificultad para respirar, a pesar de tener una buena permeabilidad nasal,, sequedad nasal, irritación de garganta, mucosidad espesa y pegajosa, sueño superficial y, a veces, sinusitis crónica. Muchos pacientes con el SNV sufren debido a él graves depresiones e incluso algunos se suicidaron debido a los insoportables síntomas causados por el SNV. Gracias al esfuerzo y respaldo de reconocidos especialistas en SNV, Christopher Martin aporta y ofrece un mensaje genuino al lector y una esperanza para el paciente gravemente dañado por el SNV en su libro basándose en: 1.- Su propio testimonio con el que explica como él mismo viene manejando con éxito el SNV que padece desde años. 2.- Una crítica profunda y bien fundamentada de las cirugías turbinales o también conocidas como cirugías de los cornetes nasales o conchas nasales, que se expone a fin de que sea contemplada antes de que los pacientes que sufran obstrucción nasal decidan si someterse a una intervención para aliviar dicha obstrucción. 3.- Una aproximación crítica a las causas que permiten que todavía millones de personas se sometan cirugías que podrían causar el SNV. 4.- Los mejores tratamientos para SNV, muchos de los cuales también se aplican a la sinusitis, rinitis alérgica, goteo posnasal, ERGE y asma.

From underground raves and Hollywood parties to run-ins with organized crime and going toe-to-toe with the US government itself, in this unbelievable autobiography, Shaahin Cheyene tells the often-bizarre story of how one rags-to-riches teenager commandeered the rising tide of music, money, and drugs in Venice Beach, California in the 90s to become...

Download or read book El Hombre Azar o Dise o written by José Francisco Martinez Garcia and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "El hombre ¿azar o diseño?" En esta obra se hace una exposición sucinta de fenómenos y elementos materiales que conforman el universo y, por tanto, también al ser humano, como un ser que tiene cuerpo y vida, y por ello sometido a leyes físicas y biológicas, pero que se desempeña trascendiendo esta clase de leyes. El hombre no puede tener su origen sólo en la materia bruta. Los acontecimientos del cosmos que le preceden, tampoco justifican suficientemente su existencia y su naturaleza, que desborda y trasciende la materia. Siendo el hombre un ser inteligente, su existencia demanda una causa inteligente, superior a él, causa que no se encuentra ni en el azar ni en la materia. En este entramado se conjugan la filosofía, la ciencia, el arte, la historia y la religión.

Download or read book The Book of Daniel written by E.L. Doctorow and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-11-10 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central figure of this novel is a young man whose parents were executed for conspiring to steal atomic secrets for Russia. His name is Daniel Isaacson, and as the story opens, his parents have been dead for many years. He has had a long time to adjust to their deaths. He has not adjusted. Out of the shambles of his childhood, he has constructed a new life—marriage to an adoring girl who gives him a son of his own, and a career in scholarship. It is a life that enrages him. In the silence of the library at Columbia University, where he is supposedly writing a Ph.D. dissertation, Daniel composes something quite different. It is a confession of his most intimate relationships—with his wife, his foster parents, and his kid sister Susan, whose own radicalism so reproaches him. It is a book of memories: riding a bus with his parents to the ill-fated Paul Robeson concert in Peekskill; watching the FBI take his father away; appearing with Susan at rallies protesting their parents’ innocence; visiting his mother and father in the Death House. It is a book of investigation: transcribing Daniel’s interviews with people who knew his parents, or who knew about them; and logging his strange researches and discoveries in the library stacks. It is a book of judgments of everyone involved in the case—lawyers, police, informers, friends, and the Isaacson family itself. It is a book rich in characters, from elderly grand- mothers of immigrant culture, to covert radicals of the McCarthy era, to hippie marchers on the Pen-tagon. It is a book that spans the quarter-century of American life since World War II. It is a book about the nature of Left politics in this country—its sacrificial rites, its peculiar cruelties, its humility, its bitterness. It is a book about some of the beautiful and terrible feelings of childhood. It is about the nature of guilt and innocence, and about the relations of people to nations. It is The Book of Daniel.
