NOVEDADES

La figura de la primera poeta del mundo occidental está envuelta en un misterio que ha suscitado curiosidad, admiración y rechazo a lo largo de los siglos. Su poesía pertenece a un conjunto de artes que los griegos llamaban mousike ("el arte de las Musas") y fue creada para ser cantada, acompañada de música y a veces de danza. En sus poemas se ocupa principalmente del amor y la belleza, y su estilo, natural y elegante, resulta asombrosamente actual. Cada epoca ha creído descubrir "su verdad" sobre Safo, pero el hecho de que conservemos su obra solo en forma de fragmentos hace que no deje de ser todavía un enigma.

Alain y Camille, amigos desde la infancia, contraen matrimonio con el beneplácito de sus familias. Alain está satisfecho con la unión, cuyo principal atractivo reside en la belleza idealizada de la esposa prudente y pasiva. Pero la vida en común con la Camille de carne y hueso le revelará que la imagen que tenía de ella contrasta inevitablemente con su exuberancia real. El descubrimiento de esta íntima desavenencia lo dejará a merced de otros anhelos, simbolizados por la gata Saha, sublime quimera que dominará la vida de Alain y se convertirá para Camille en una temible rival... Una novela tan sutil como mordaz en que Colette subvierte los tópicos del triángulo amoroso para indagar en las servidumbres de la devoción y en el conflicto entre fantasía y experiencia.

Madeline has always been extremely close to her family, so she is shocked when her older brother gets engaged without including them (or even giving them a heads up!). Mads has never been the biggest fan of his fiancée, Katie, so in order to remain one happy family, she is determined to bond with Katie before the big day, which includes reluctantly agreeing to be a bridesmaid. During a late-night bridesmaids-only game of "Truth or Dare" Mads is cornered into revealing she has never been kissed or even been on a date, which spurs the other girls to unite on a quest to find Mads the perfect plus-one for the wedding. Next thing she knows she's navigating a series of disastrous dates that include some major misunderstandings and mishaps. All of a sudden Mads finds her heart tugged in different directions: to Connor, the boy next door who knows her best. To Marco, the former classmate who knows how to push all her buttons. And to some of the new suitors who surprisingly aren't all bad. As the wedding draws nearer, Mads has to figure out who she wants most as a dance partner, while also making sure her brother isn't making the biggest mistake of his life.

Trip. My parents started using that word about a year ago—“one day, you’ll take a trip to be with us. Like an adventure.” Javier Zamora’s adventure is a three-thousand-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador, through Guatemala and Mexico, and across the U.S. border. He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers. Traveling alone amid a group of strangers and a “coyote” hired to lead them to safety, Javier expects his trip to last two short weeks. At nine years old, all Javier can imagine is rushing into his parents’ arms, snuggling in bed between them, and living under the same roof again. He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips, relentless desert treks, pointed guns, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside fellow migrants who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family. A memoir as gripping as it is moving, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Javier Zamora’s story, but it’s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home.
