José María Ridao
República encantada
Un imprescindible ensayo sobre las raíces de la intolerancia y sus repercusiones en la política actual.
El autor explora con enorme lucidez diversos aspectos controvertidos de la historiografía española: la negación del pasado musulmán, las consecuencias de la expulsión de judíos y moriscos de nuestro país, la imposición de una ortodoxia religiosa de tintes retrógrados, las dificultades que la tolerancia ha tenido para prosperar en España...

Mario Vargas Llosa
Dos soledades. Un diálogo sobre la novela en America Latina
“In this book there are more valuable lessons on the novelist’s craft than at any faculty of literature.” Juan Gabriel Vásquez.
In September 1967, the two young authors Gabriel García Márquez and Mario Vargas Llosa met up in Lima to discuss Latin American literature. The former had already sold thousands of copies of One Hundred Years of Solitude. The latter had just won the Rómulo Gallegos Award for The Green House.

Transbordo en Moscú / Change in Moscow
The grand finale that concludes the trilogy of the Three Laws of Motion, a journey as lucid as it is hilarious through the great transformations that occurred in the second half of the 20th century.

Santiago Beruete
Aprendívoros
Our innate desire to learn defines us as a species.
What we should teach the new generations is an ongoing daily debate in many quarters, though it is rarely related to the life and society we long for. We all know, but we often forget that a philosophical approach and a critical spirit are perennial requisites for the future, however unpredictable the latter may be.

Els angles morts / Dead Angles
Packed with pitiless, corrosive humour, Els angles morts is the confirmation of the enormous talent of one of the most striking and original voices in Catalan fiction.
Sesé and Morella have been married for more than twenty years and understand each other perfectly. Her supervision of an unusual birth while on night duty prompts Sesé, an eminent gynaecologist, to begin to reconsider not only the routine in which she has been trapped for years but also the deeper meaning of medical practice and the motives underlying her own professional work.

«Contemporáneo en su estilo breve y fragmentario -donde se cruzan diario, imágenes, géneros y lenguajes diversos-, esta novela lírica y vertiginosa revoluciona la no ficción en sus formas y temas.» Gabriela Cabezón Cámara
Después de un año sin noticias, una llamada desde la Fiscalía anuncia que, finalmente, la denuncia por abuso sexual ha sido elevada a juicio...
