Salambó es una novela histórica de gran importancia para las letras universales por tratarse de un texto escrito a partir de una minuciosa investigación por parte de Flaubert. El relato se ubica en el siglo III en la llamada Guerra de los Mercenarios (en Cartago tras la primera Guerra Púnica) e incluye, para deleite de sus lectores, personajes como Salambó y Matho que son llevados por amores, traiciones, pérdidas, vacíos y los dolores propios de una historia cruel y violenta.

Six shots. Five dead. One heartland city thrown into a state of terror. But within hours the cops have it solved: a slam-dunk case. Except for one thing. The accused man says: You got the wrong guy. Then he says: Get Reacher for me. And sure enough, ex—military investigator Jack Reacher is coming. He knows this shooter–a trained military sniper who never should have missed a shot. Reacher is certain something is not right–and soon the slam-dunk case explodes. Now Reacher is teamed with a beautiful young defense lawyer, moving closer to the unseen enemy who is pulling the strings. Reacher knows that no two opponents are created equal. This one has come to the heartland from his own kind of hell. And Reacher knows that the only way to take him down is to match his ruthlessness and cunning–and then beat him shot for shot.

Descubre al Detective Washington Poe. Oscuro, cínico, implacable; un hombre que vive en la soledad de una granja en la parte más desolada de Cumbria. Un hombre que incluso sus secretos guardan secretos. Él tiene un pasado que mantiene alejado y otro pasado que aún no conoce.

Considered a masterpiece since its first appearance on stage in 1904, Peter Pan is J. M. Barrie’s most famous work and arguably the greatest of all children’s stories. While it is a wonderful fantasy for the young, Peter Pan, particularly in the novel form Barrie published in 1911, says something important to all of us. Here “the boy who wouldn’t grow up” and his adventures with Wendy and the lost boys in the Neverland evoke a deep emotional response as they give form to our feelings about parents, boys and girls, the unknown, freedom, and responsibility. Humorous, satiric, filled with suspenseful cliff-hangers and bittersweet truths, Peter Panworks an indisputable magic on readers of all ages, making it a true classic of imaginative literature.

Cuánto quiero a las pobres palabras, que tan míseras están en lo diario: a ellas, las invisibles palabras. De mis fiestas les regalo colores: sonríen, y se ponen alegres lentamente.
