A Gaspar ya no le gusta Luca Calliveri. O eso se ha repetido cada mañana durante los últimos tres meses, desde que el rey de Santino le rompió el corazón en mil pedazos. Ha intentado rehacer su vida, más unido a su padre, ahora que solo quedan los recuerdos de un verano imposible de olvidar. Pero una sorprendente invitación al Sansere Invernale, el baile con motivo del solsticio de invierno que celebra la familia real, lo cambiará todo. ¿Está preparado Gaspar para volver a Santino, reencontrarse con Luca y descubrir los secretos que esconden los Calliveri?

Veinte poemas de amor y una canción desesperada es un libro doloroso y pastoril que contiene mis más atormentadas pasiones adolescentes, mezcladas con la naturaleza arrolladora del sur de mi patria. Es un libro de amor porque a pesar de su aguda melancolía está presente en él el goce de la existencia.» Con estas palabras definía Pablo Neruda este volumen que el lector tiene en sus manos, aparecido en abril de 1924, cuando el poeta apenas tenía diecinueve años de edad. Se iniciaba así el milagro de un texto escrito por un estudiante provinciano, bohemio, pobre y poco afortunado en el amor. Con el tiempo, el joven se convirtió en un poeta universalmente consagrado, y este libro, en uno de los poemarios más leídos, publicados y traducidos en el mundo.

Throughout your life, you’ve been slowly indoctrinated to believe that money is the only type of wealth. In reality, your wealthy life may involve money, but in the end, it will be defined by everything else. After three years of research, personal experimentation, and thousands of interviews across the globe, Sahil Bloom has created a groundbreaking blueprint to build your life around five types of wealth: Time Wealth, Social Wealth, Mental Wealth, Physical Wealth, and Financial Wealth. A life of true fulfillment engages all five types—working dynamically, in concert across the seasons of your journey.

Silicon Valley has lost its way. Our most brilliant engineering minds once collaborated with government to advance world-changing technologies. Their efforts secured the West’s dominant place in the geopolitical order. But that relationship has now eroded, with perilous repercussions. Today, the market rewards shallow engagement with the potential of technology. Engineers and founders build photo-sharing apps and marketing algorithms, unwittingly becoming vessels for the ambitions of others. This complacency has spread into academia, politics, and the boardroom. The result? An entire generation for whom the narrow-minded pursuit of the demands of a late capitalist economy has become their calling. In this groundbreaking treatise, Palantir co-founder and CEO Alexander C. Karp and Nicholas W. Zamiska offer a searing critique of our collective abandonment of ambition, arguing that in order for the U.S. and its allies to retain their global edge—and preserve the freedoms we take for granted—the software industry must renew its commitment to addressing our most urgent challenges, including the new arms race of artificial intelligence. The government, in turn, must embrace the most effective features of the engineering mindset that has propelled Silicon Valley’s success.

On a backstreet in Tokyo lies a pawnshop, but not everyone can find it. Most will see a cozy ramen restaurant. And only the chosen ones—those who are lost—will find a place to pawn their life choices and deepest regrets. Hana Ishikawa wakes on her first morning as the pawnshop’s new owner to find it ransacked, the shop’s most precious acquisition stolen, and her father missing. And then into the shop stumbles a charming stranger, quite unlike its other customers, for he offers help instead of seeking it. Together, they must journey through a mystical world to find Hana’s father and the stolen choice—by way of rain puddles, rides on paper cranes, the bridge between midnight and morning, and a night market in the clouds. But as they get closer to the truth, Hana must reveal a secret of her own—and risk making a choice that she will never be able to take back.

Lila Kennedy has a lot on her plate. A broken marriage, two wayward daughters, a house that is falling apart, and an elderly stepfather who seems to have quietly moved in. Her career is in freefall and her love life is . . . complicated. So when her real dad—a man she has barely seen since he ran off to Hollywood thirty-five years ago—suddenly appears on her doorstep, it feels like the final straw. But it turns out even the family you thought you could never forgive might have something to teach you: about love, and what it actually means to be family.
