Toby Fleishman thought he knew what to expect when he and his wife of almost fifteen years separated: weekends and every other holiday with the kids, some residual bitterness, the occasional moment of tension in their co-parenting negotiations. He could not have predicted that one day, in the middle of his summer of sexual emancipation, Rachel would just drop their two children off at his place and simply not return. He had been working so hard to find equilibrium in his single life. The winds of his optimism, long dormant, had finally begun to pick up. Now this.
As Toby tries to figure out where Rachel went, all while juggling his patients at the hospital, his never-ending parental duties, and his new app-assisted sexual popularity, his tidy narrative of the spurned husband with the too-ambitious wife is his sole consolation. But if Toby ever wants to truly understand what happened to Rachel and what happened to his marriage, he is going to have to consider that he might not have seen things all that clearly in the first place.

Como los de su primera entrega, con la que Victoria León ganó el Premio Iberoamericano de Poesía Hermanos Machado, los poemas de Flores de fuego, escritos entre 2018 y 2022, parten de una poética y unas concepciones estéticas fundamentadas en el clasicismo y la lengua natural, ensayando nuevas formas y tonos. Dividido en cuatro secciones, que dialogan entre sí o con lecturas de Cioran (a quien se debe la metáfora del título), Lucrecio, Nietzsche, Goethe, Marco Aurelio, Zweig, Keats, Breton, Foscolo o Cernuda, el libro tiene la soledad como gran tema común: la soledad como destino humano, pero también como faro desde el que nace e irradia la poesía para iluminarnos y tendernos paradójicos puentes con la vida, o como búsqueda del alma del mundo en el sentido platónico, necesaria para crear y vivir plenamente.
Floresta de Prosa y Verso fue publicada como serie cerrada coleccionable entre enero y junio de 1936 por un grupo de jóvenes estudiantes de la entonces innovadora Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de Madrid. Reunió en sus páginas la creación primeriza de un numeroso grupo de jóvenes escritores junto a la colaboración de maestros y autores consagrados que presidió cada uno de los números: Juan Ramón Jiménez en dos ocasiones, Azorín, Lorca, Aleixandre. El resultado fue un conjunto misceláneo y muy representativo de la diversidad y complejidad del panorama literario del momento. Revista de espíritu abierto e integrador, colaboraron en ella jóvenes republicanos, liberales y progresistas, junto a conservadores, monárquicos y falangistas de primera hora. Entre los que sobrevivieron y mantuvieron tras la guerra su actividad literaria, se hallan figuras destacadas del exilio, como Francisco Giner de los Ríos o Joaquín Díez-Canedo –que dirigieron en México a partir de 1945 la colección de poesía Nueva Floresta,
What is a meaningful life, and how do we make one? How do certain communities foster closeness, fulfillment, happiness, and energy?
In Flourish, bestselling author and leading culture expert Daniel Coyle trains his eye on the groups and people who demonstrate exceptional connectivity, presence, and dynamism. He draws on research and original reporting—taking us inside an unlikely brotherhood of thirty-three men who were trapped in a Chilean mine, a tiny Michigan deli that blossomed into a $90 million ecosystem of businesses, an inventive Dutch soccer team that revolutionized the sport as we know it, and a disconnected Paris district that remade itself into a tight-knit neighborhood—to reveal the principles and practices that ignite and sustain thriving. He finds that flourishing groups do two things: They make meaning (creating deep connections) and build community (forging a common good).
Through captivating real-world stories, rigorous scientific studies, and firsthand accounts, Coyle reveals what sets some groups apart—and offers you the tools and insights to flourish in your own life.
Flush es un cocker spaniel de pura raza poseedor de una extremada sensibilidad a las emociones humanas. Llega a la vida de Elizabeth Barrett, la poetisa más admirada de Inglaterra, en uno de sus momentos más difíciles. Animal y humana establecerán casi de inmediato un vínculo insólito. Flush acompañará a Elizabeth en sus días más oscuros, será afligido testigo de su romance con el poeta Robert Browning y la seguirá en su huida a Italia en pos de la felicidad que le hará recobrar la salud. Flush es una historia original, tierna y llena de humor en la que Woolf vuelve a temas recurrentes como la vida en el Londres victoriano o la diferencia de clases, esta vez a través de la inocente mirada de un perro, lo que la convierte en una de las novelas más encantadoras de la literatura contemporánea.
