Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The beautiful, horrible world of Mariana Enriquez, as glimpsed in The Dangers of Smoking in Bed, with its disturbed adolescents, ghosts, decaying ghouls, the sad and angry homeless of modern Argentina, is the most exciting discovery I’ve made in fiction for some time.”—Kazuo Ishiguro, The Guardian SHORTLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE • NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS’ CHOICE • FINALIST: Los Angeles Times Book Prize, Ray Bradbury Prize, Kirkus Prize • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Oprah Daily, New York Public Library, Electric Lit, LitHub, Kirkus Reviews Mariana Enriquez has been critically lauded for her unconventional and sociopolitical stories of the macabre. Populated by unruly teenagers, crooked witches, homeless ghosts, and hungry women, they walk the uneasy line between urban realism and horror. The stories in her new collection are as terrifying as they are socially conscious, and press into being the unspoken—fetish, illness, the female body, the darkness of human history—with bracing urgency. A woman is sexually obsessed with the human heart; a lost, rotting baby crawls out of a backyard and into a bedroom; a pair of teenage girls can’t let go of their idol; an entire neighborhood is cursed to death when it fails to respond correctly to a moral dilemma. Written against the backdrop of contemporary Argentina, and with a resounding tenderness toward those in pain, in fear, and in limbo, The Dangers of Smoking in Bed is Mariana Enriquez at her most sophisticated, and most chilling.

Book excerpt: ...va pasando el tiempo en un ir y venir por el pasillo, y para el alba la tormenta ha perdido la fuerza, mientras que "la Escopetilla" ha recuperado las suyas. Recostada entre las almohadas, sorbe una infusión de contrití que Junípero ha hecho para ella. A su lado, Juan José le toma el pulso que ahora late con normalidad. Ninguno de los tres tiene explicación para lo sucedido, hasta que entre las almohadas una bolsa del tamaño de una rosquilla de San Isidro asoma junto al camisón amarillo. En su interior, un dedo de mono seco, quizá el dedo corazón, y una pequeña hoja medio marchita... Esta es la historia de la familia Camaró y "Ojos de Gato", que tras La Guerra Civil Española de 1936, y bajo el régimen del General Franco, emprenden una nueva vida en una tierra extraña y fascinante, como fue La Guinea Española -hoy Guinea Ecuatorial-. Una historia de sentimientos a flor de piel, que marcaron la vida de una niña hasta que en 1968-con la independencia- su familia, como la gran mayoría de los coloniales, dejó esa tierra bendita para no volver.

Book excerpt: Miles de millones de seres humanos alrededor del mundo, han hablado de estar esperando la segunda venida de Cristo Jesus desde hace siglos y milenios. Para ello, han ideado diferentes conceptos de como el Espiritu Santo los pueda hailitar para poder estar preparados y aprobados para cuando dicho evento tome lugar. Muchos han ignorado dichos conceptos, otros los han aceptado. Por alguna razon desconocida para ellos, e inclusive para nosotros hoy; se ha pasado por alto el magno evento que precede a dicha segunda venida. Ese hecho es: Estar preparados para el Inminente Cierre del Tiempo de Gracia! Si fue aprobado antes de dicho cierre, la segunda venida sera para usted, una maravillosa experiencia. Por eso, el mismo Dios en su misericordia a punto de ser retirada, al ver a la humanidad cristiana y a la no cristiana de hoy, errando el camino y hundida en tanta confusion al respecto; ha querido brindar un mapa unico, con puntos claves y con bases simples, solidas y precisas a traves de este libro. Mapa que nos abrira los ojos a una realidad sorprendente en la cual quieras o no, te veras envuelto. Junto al Espiritu Santo;esta sierva desea compartir ese hallazgo con usted, mi querido lector.

El diablo quiere confundirlos mediante tantos sistemas y filosofias religiosas. Ante estos dos Poderes, Solo Usted Tiene la Decision Final! Por favor, no ignore las advertencias que con tanto amor y por ultima vez Cristo Jesus les envia a traves de las paginas de este libro.
Download or read book Perrault s Stories written by Charles Perrault and published by 2Language Books. This book was released on with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PERRAULT’S STORIES: English & Spanish THIS EDITION: The dual-language text has been arranged into sub-paragraphs and paragraphs, for quick and easy cross-referencing. The Spanish translation has been modernised and amended to suit this dual language project. The revised English text is in part a translation from Spanish. Essentially, Perrault’s fairy tales have been rewritten in contemporary English from the Spanish translation. The emphasis is on attaining a high correlation between each set of text fragments. The stories were originally written in French. The reader can choose between four formats: Section 1: English to Spanish Section 2: Spanish to English Section 3: English Section 4: Spanish BRIEF SYNOPSIS: This book is a collection of eight fairy tales that were originally published in 1697. The Grimm brothers rewrote many of these stories. However, in many ways they are remarkably different versions. The full title, as translated into English, is “Tales and Stories of the Past with Morals: Tales of Mother Goose.” The Spanish subtitle is, “Los Cuentos de Mamá Ganso.” The stories include: Sleeping Beauty in the Woods Cinderella Little Finger Puss in Boots Riquet with the Tuft Blue Beard The Fairy Little Red Riding-Hood AUTHOR: Charles Perrault (1628 – 1703) is often times considered the founder of the modern fairy tale genre. Although, some of his stories follow themes from earlier authors, and he did not coin the phrase ‘fairy tale’. (A Dual-Language Book Project) 2Language Books
Download or read book Espa ol Contempor neo written by George De Mello and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1990 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text is designed for use in college 3rd-4th year Spanish language classes. Each of the fifteen chapters begins with a brief selection in Spanish from a recent Spanish-language publication. Following the reading selection a questionnaire based on the content of the reading material channels the student into using vocabulary employed in the reading. Three topics are then given, suggested by the content of the reading and designed to provoke conversation in class or to serve as themes for compositions. The second part of each chapter is a study of language difficulties often encountered by American students at the junior or senior level of Spanish language study. Each of these sections is based on a word or phrase appearing in the reading. The third section of each chapter is a grammar lesson which presents one of the principal topics of Spanish syntax, stressing those points of the topic which continue to be problematical to advanced students. Each grammar section consists of a clearly worded explanation of the basic theory underlying the topic under discussion, which is further clarified by a large number of example sentences.
