El viajero de cercanías
Author: William Henry Hudson
Publisher: Erasmus Ediciones
ISBN: 8492806788
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Una selección de entrañables anécdotas ecológicas por el autor de la obra maestra de renombre mundial "La Tierra Púrpura". Un clásico internacional y uno de los escritores predilectos del muy selectivo J. L. Borges. Joseph Conrad detectó su gran calidad literaria alabando su naturalísimo estilo que “brotaba como la hierba”. Hudson pergeñó varias obras maestras de la novelística mundial como "La tierra púrpura" por las que es recordado primordialmente; pero, asimismo, escribió otras obras magníficas y de gran talla literaria como es la presente, en donde, sin el artificio novelístico ni la exigencia narrativa biográfica, manifiesta su categoría de gran escritor capaz de extraer interés y poesía de hechos en apariencia insignificantes: recuerdos nostálgicos de su juventud en la Pampa, conversaciones con simpáticas niñas –en curiosa vena Lewiscarroliana–, experiencias relativas a pájaros –su gran pasión–, y anécdotas ocurridas en remotas aldeas o parajes salvajes ingleses.

The Comic Book Western
Author: Christopher Conway
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 1496232232
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
One of the greatest untold stories about the globalization of the Western is the key role of comics. Few American cultural exports have been as successful globally as the Western, a phenomenon commonly attributed to the widespread circulation of fiction, film, and television. The Comic Book Western centers comics in the Western’s international success. Even as readers consumed translations of American comic book Westerns, they fell in love with local ones that became national or international sensations. These essays reveal the unexpected cross-pollinations that allowed the Western to emerge from and speak to a wide range of historical and cultural contexts, including Spanish and Italian fascism, Polish historical memory, the ideology of shōjo manga from Japan, British post-apocalypticism and the gothic, race and identity in Canada, Mexican gender politics, French critiques of manifest destiny, and gaucho nationalism in Argentina. The vibrant themes uncovered in The Comic Book Western teach us that international comic book Westerns are not hollow imitations but complex and aesthetically powerful statements about identity, culture, and politics.

Pages : 499
Book Description
Middle-aged Troy Banalia is a burned-out lawyer from South Jersey who vacations in Baja California where he is entertained by the professional women of Tijuana. The wares of many ladies of the night are sampled by him until he meets the blonde bombshell Angelita. The sexual passion between them ignites immediately, and he soon falls madly in love with her as does she for him. When he returns to his law practice, a duplicitous client sells him out by telling the assistant district attorney a bunch of lies, which implicate Troy, in exchange for leniency. The beloved barrister becomes disbarred and is imprisoned. While serving a brief sentence, the broken Banalia decides to leave his former life behind and vows to return to Angelita and free her from the evil Hector, a.k.a. Solo, Lobo, her pimp. When he finds Angelita, the struggle between Troy and his armed entourage, the fearless private investigator Gary Brody and brave Mexican guide Jose Bravo, and the brutal gang of Solo Lobo, the gargantuan bodyguard Negro and cunning assistant Bruto, begins. Fueled by the backup of Brody and apt tutelage of Jose, Troy devises a series of plans to conquer Lobo once and for all and free Angelita forever. His affection for and friendship with his amigo nuevo grows during this learning process until his crestfallen companion eventually confides in him regarding the dark secret of why this honorable Mexican hombre is called El Bravo by those who know him. The battles for Angelita between the two warring camps commence at the top of Baja in this first novel, and continue south throughout the rest of the elongated peninsula to its inevitable end at the twin capes, Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo, in the sequel, Land’s End, Cabo. Along the way from Tijuana to Los Cabos, Troy drives with Angelita always by his side in their desperate trip of escape. The surreal landscapes abound during their journey across this magical land. And all the adventure takes place against the background of beauty that prevails in this pristine peninsula. An ode to Baja so to speak. The unexpected and perilous predicaments that transpire on this spectacular sojourn will test the fullest measure of their collective resolve and spiritual union. The Baja Expatriate and Land’s End, Cabo, both speak to the indomitable human spirit and the power of love. It is a story of personal redemption and the undeniable human need for freedom. An epic allegory about the never-ending battle between good and evil bestowed upon us by the master storyteller, Edwin Paul. It will inspire the reader to fight the good fight in one’s life, and to strive for what we all need in our lives, reciprocal love.
