Book excerpt: „Chira Chiralina e prima mea operă şi-mi rămâne scumpă între toate... Şi poate că azi plângem amândoi pe ruinele unor năzuinţi cari ne-au fost deopotrivă de scumpe...“ (Panait ISTRATI) Tragică, romantică, exotică, fermecătoare, plină de aventuri şi de pasiuni interzise, împletind viciul şi virtutea, abjecţia şi nobleţea, Chira Chiralina este una dintre cele mai tulburătoare scrieri din literatura română şi o neobosită pledoarie pentru libertate. Tânăra Chira, ademenitoare şi naivă, îndrăzneaţă şi nesăbuită, îşi duce zilele alături de mama ei în petreceri şi răsfăţ. Seară de seară, cu o nepăsare sporită parcă de apăsarea sorţii, fata îşi primeşte oaspeţii într-un cadru sufocat de erotism, devenind, cu voie ori fără voie, idealul amăgitor al fratelui ei mai mic, Dragomir. Când, asemenea oricărei iluzii, Chira îi scapă tânărului printre degete, acesta porneşte pe urmele ei prin lumea cea mare, într-o călătorie care-i perverteşte sufletul şi-i îngenunchează spiritul. Odiseea levantină a căutării surorii iubite zugrăveşte un preţios tablou al Orientului la mijloc de secol XIX şi oferă impresionante lecţii de viaţă. La capătul drumului, hoinarul Dragomir, înţelepţit, îşi transpune experienţa pribegiei într-o poveste de o frumuseţe răscolitoare. Scutite de grijile gospodăriei, cele două femei îşi petreceau vremea cu odihna, cu baia, cu toaleta, cu siropurile, cu mâncarea, cu narghilelele şi cu primirea curtezanilor. Nu uitau nici rugăciunile, dar nu se duceau niciodată la biserică, iar timpul sacrificat lui Dumnezeu era foarte scurt... Şi, desigur, mama era mulţumită de ceea ce Dumnezeu voia ca ea să facă, fiindcă el nu vrea lucruri silnice. El voia, mai întâi, ca mama şi fiica să stea în pat dimineaţa, cât le-o plăcea – loc potrivit pentru a ronţăi pesmeţi cu unt şi miere şi pentru a bea cafeaua cu lapte. Dumnezeu le poruncea apoi să se îmbăieze şi să-şi ungă corpul cu elixir de smirnă, să-şi înfrăgezeze obrajii cu abur de lapte fierbând la foc mic; să-şi facă părul lucios cu unt de migdale parfumat cu mosc; să-şi lustruiască unghiile cu o pensulă înmuiată în esenţă de anilină de acaju. Era apoi o întreagă daraveră cu toaleta genelor, sprâncenelor, buzelor şi obrajilor. Şi când totul era gata, urmau dejunul, fumatul şi siesta. Se trezeau când soarele era la chindie, pentru a arde aromate, pentru a bea siropuri şi în sfârşit pentru a începe marea dandana a zilei: cântecele, danţurile, cheful care ţinea până la miezul nopţii.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eusebio Chacón, born in Pe-asco, New Mexico, is arguably one of the most significant and most overlooked figures in New Mexico's cultural heritage. He earned a law degree from Notre Dame and returned to practice law in Trinidad, Colorado. He served as a district attorney for Las Animas County, Colorado, and as a translator for the U.S. Court of Private Land Claims. In 1898, he began to write and edit for El Progreso, in which many of his articles exposed the unjust treatment of Hispanics in Colorado and New Mexico. He was also New Mexico's first novelist, and took pride in his pioneering efforts to establish a Nuevomexicano literary tradition. This collection of Chacón's writings brings together all published and written materials found, displaying his versatility with samples of his work as an accomplished orator, translator, essayist, historian, novelist, and poet.

Download or read book Hotel Balmori written by Francisco Pérez Arce and published by Editorial Itaca. This book was released on 2013 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta novela de trasfondo político, urdida con audacia, personajes bien construidos y lenguaje vivo, recorre tiempos conmovedores para conducir a un final sorprendente. En estas páginas resuenan las voces de quienes luchan por sus ideales; entre ellas la historia de una joven mujer, “de su empeño por recuperar la memoria que no es de ella sola sino de todos”.En este volumen entregamos la segunda edición de la primera parte de la trilogía Fin de siglo, un fresco que reconstruye la atmósfera del último tercio del siglo XX mexicano a partir de la sensibilidad de una generación, sus deseos, sus frustraciones y sus sueños.Son relatos de ficción pero inspirados en hechos reales: Hotel Balmori en el asesinato de Rubén Jaramillo, el movimiento del 68 y la guerra sucia de los años setenta; Septiembre en los terremotos del 85 y el drama de los desaparecidos políticos; Xalostoc en la insurgencia obrera y la corrupción gubernamental. Las tres novelas pueden leerse independientemente una de otra, no tienen una línea argumental común aunque comparten escenografías y contextos históricos.
