NOVEDADES

Love and loyalty run deeper than blood. St. Vladimir’s Academy isn’t just any boarding school—it’s a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They’ve been on the run, but now they’re being dragged back to St. Vladimir’s—the very place where they’re most in danger. . . . Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy’s ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi—the world’s fiercest and most dangerous vampires—make Lissa one of them forever.

Ramona fell for Sam the moment she met him. It was like she had known him forever. He's one of the few constants in her life, and their friendship is just too important to risk for a kiss. Though she really wants to kiss him... Sam loves Ramona, but he would never expect her to feel the same way-she's too quirky and cool for someone like him. Still, they complement each other perfectly, both as best friends and as a band. Then they meet Tom. Tom makes music too, and he's the band's missing piece. The three quickly become inseparable. Except Ramona's falling in love with Tom. But she hasn't fallen out of love with Sam either. How can she be true to her feelings and herself without losing the very relationships that make her heart sing?

Tras una muerte que podría calificarse de libresca, atropellada mientras hojeaba un volumen de Emily Dickinson, una profesora de la Universidad de Cambridge es la destinataria póstuma de un ejemplar de La línea de sombra, de Joseph Conrad. El insólito libro está cubierto de cemento y va a parar a las manos del compañero argentino de departamento que ha asumido las clases de la desdichada Bluma Lennon. Intrigado por el extraño paquete, que proviene de Uruguay, el narrador inicia una pesquisa que lo llevará de vuelta a su continente para ir descubriendo poco a poco qué relaciones azarosas unen la muerte de su colega, el ejemplar encementado y la estela de un misterioso coleccionista de libros consumido por su pasión. Recuperamos esta nouvelle letraherida y encantadora –publicada por primera vez, con inmenso éxito, hace más de veinte años y traducida desde entonces a más de veinte lenguas– que atrapará a toda alma bibliófila que se precie.
