The exceptional correspondence between four great writers who were also great friends and allies. An invaluable testament to an incomparable epoch and generation.

Feral
The story unfolds on two timelines: a distant future where a group of archivists, narrating in a form reminiscent of a Greek chorus, investigates the lives of four friends in our near future. These friends live in a commune and possess special qualities – Diana's prophetic visions, Saratoga's musical talent, Yunuen's quest for the coherence of reality, and Eugenia's journey to Teotihuacán. Their story's turning point is “Day 0”, or “The Worst Day”, when Diana receives a devastating call: her friend Eugenia has been murdered while working on an archaeological excavation in Teotihuacán.
Miguel Delibes
Los discursos de Miguel Delibes. Naturaleza, literatura y vida / The Speeches of Miguel Delibes. Nature, Literature And Life
Los discursos del gran escritor reunidos por primera vez en un libro.
Miguel Delibes pronunció su primer discurso en el acto de su recepción en la Real Academia Española en 1975, y con el tiempo resultó una joya literaria con un mensaje más vigente que nunca y sin duda uno de los grandes temas de su obra: cómo el progreso moderno puede destruir la naturaleza y, con ella, un componente esencial de nuestra humanidad.

Lorenzo Silva
Púa
A gripping thriller that combines the fast-paced action of films like Bourne and Taken with the literary drive of Lorenzo Silva, a best-selling author in Spain.
Púa is the code name of a former agent of the Company, a secret special unit set up to fight against terrorism. Now, no one would recognize him if they saw him in his new job as a bookseller in the provinces, under a new identity after dedicating the best years of his life to the corps.
Vicente Aleixandre
Voy a decirte todavía / I am Going to Tell You Still
Prepared by the poet and journalist Antonio Lucas, this poetic anthology of Vicente Aleixandre is an excellent gateway to a work as decisive as it is influential in modern Spanish lyricism. It encompasses the amorous and existential questioning of his beginnings, spurred by the liberating example of surrealism, to the pantheistic vitalism and metaphysical exploration that characterize his later development in modern Spanish poetry.
Gisela Leal
La Soledad en tres actos / Solitude in Three Acts
Solitude and power, the two themes underlying the finest Latin American literary tradition, revisited by an extraordinary new voice.
Antonia, “the loneliest being in all the galaxies of the vast universe”, has not had what might be described as an ordinary childhood. She is an introverted girl suffering from social anxiety and eating disorders, and since her father abandoned them the relationship with her mother has been difficult – not to say tyrannical and unhealthy. But their lives seem to take a turn for the better when the mother marries a successful businessman –a self-made man who personifies the paradigm of money and power.
