Book Description
In Cuba, on a beautiful sandy beach, surrounded by clear blue water, stood a giant castle. People would come from far away to visit the castle and explore its surroundings. One day, when doing just that, a Canadian woman discovered a puppy outside of the fence lining the castle grounds. From the moment the two locked eyes, the woman knew the puppy was meant to be a part of her family. Inspired by the author’s real-life experience, Chica, Chica, Señorita tells the story of a small dog’s triumphant journey across the sea to her furever home. The author hopes to inspire young readers and families to consider if rescuing or adopting an animal is right for them.

Papelón

Book Description
Argentina pretends to be governed as a democracy, a federal republic presided over by a president with legislative powers residing in a senate and a chamber of deputies. Supposedly, the law of the land is their constitution of 1853, a noble document emulating the ideals of the constitution of the United States of America. Constitutional documents notwithstanding, historical records suggest that something other than a democratic form of government is practiced there. For recent examples, take note that Ramon S. Castillo acceded to the presidency during 1942 when the incumbent, Presidente Roberto M. Ortiz, was compelled to give up the office due to ill health. Scarcely one year later, General Arturo Rawson removed Presidente Castillo from office. Subsequently, Rawson himself was forced out and the presidency passed to General Pedro Ramírez. Ramírez was ousted by a coup d'état in 1943 and was replaced by a junta from which Coronel Juan Domingo Perón ultimately rose to power. Perón was actually elected to the presidency three times: first, in 1946, and again in 1952; his turn to walk the plank did not come until three years later when he was deposed by the military and General Eduardo Lonardi took charge as provisional president. [Beyond the time span of our story, Perón returned to Argentina from exile in Spain in 1973 and was again elected to the presidency that same year; he died in office during 1974.] Less than two months from Perón being deposed by General Lonardi in 1955, Lonardi was shoved aside by General Pedro Eugenio Aramburu. Most recently, Arturo Frondizi succeeded Aramburu by winning the general election of 1958. Like so, the political cycles in the history of this democracy continue. The cycles always begin with the army taking over and always end or begin once again with the army taking over, it all having more or less first begun with General Juan Manuel de Rosas way back in 1829. Carlos Eduardo Pagano had always had three great passions: his beloved country, Argentina; his passion for technology; and his love for his childhood companion, Juan Ricardo Belén. As circumstance and happenstance would have it, two of these passions are violently wrested from Carlos's life when opposing political ambitions lead to bickering within the Argentine army and the result becomes the tragic death of Carlos's friend plus the destruction of the huge electrical power plant where Carlos was employed. Thus, in the political turmoil of Buenos Aires during 1962, an apolitical Carlos is unwillingly drawn into political activism to avenge the death of his best friend; and, as young love has just begun to blossom, the brash and beautiful Lucía Beatriz Blanco will not be denied playing a role at his side. Their strategy becomes to persuade the body politic to consent to a national referendum for eliminating Argentina's armed forces and this in a nation where the military has always ruled with jackboot tactics. Carlos and Lucía become lovers as well as the conscience of Argentina as they orchestrate a quixotic effort that places them squarely on the path of the steamroller that is Argentina's autistic military establishment.

Spanish National Cinema
Author: Nuria Triana-Toribio
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135124876

Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This study examines the discourses of nationalism as they intersected or clashed with Spanish film production from its inception to the present. While the book addresses the discourses around filmmakers such as Almodóvar and Medem, whose work has achieved international recognition, Spanish National Cinema is particularly novel in its treatment of a whole range of popular cinema rarely touched on in studies of Spanish cinema. Using accounts of films, popular film magazines and documents not readily available to an English-speaking audience, as well as case studies focusing on the key issues of each epoch, this volume illuminates the complex and changing relationship between cinema and Spanish national identity.
