Book Description
La Bruja Blanca y otros cuentos que rompieron el molde reúne seis historias sorprendentes, hoy desconocidas, que fueron escritas, en su mayoría, hace más de cien años. En estos relatos, encontramos príncipes, princesas, magos, dragones y otros personajes de los cuentos de hadas que se alejan de sus roles habituales y nos divierten con sus ocurrencias y aventuras.De la pluma de autoras de enorme trayectoria como Edith Nesbit y Mary de Morgan, surgen princesas que ya no se conforman con ser la damisela en apuros del cuento. En ellas, vemos reflejados los anhelos de aquellas mujeres valientes que a principios del siglo XX, con gran convicción, lucharon por sus derechos, para poder elegir y vivir libremente. Los geniales R. E. Vernède y Philip Carmichael, en la línea de los creadores de los mundos maravillosos de Alicia y el Mago de Oz, nos regalan cuentos únicos, con personajes inolvidables y diálogos desopilantes y llenos de humor, en los que la fantasía y la imaginación no tienen límite.De un modo sorprendente, estos relatos, escritos hace tantos años, mantienen su vigencia y tienen la potencia de alimentar el gusto por las buenas historias, esas en las que abundan las ideas nuevas y un poco alocadas, que activan la mente y nos regalan otras miradas del mundo.Traducción: Susurros Chinos

Pages : 272
Book Description
From the author of The Campaign and No Rules of Engagement… Pamela Wright will never forgive her sister for dying in the Afghanistan war, or the Army for Laura’s death, or anyone else for making it okay for Laura to go halfway around the world to fight for reasons Pam has never fathomed. Numb with grief, she buries her sister but not her rage. Among the mourners is Trish Tomlinson, who loved Laura long ago and has found the news of Laura’s death sharply painful. She remembers Pam as an unwelcome third wheel, but now finds comfort in the company of the young medical resident, and in the details of Laura’s journal that Pam shares. Brought together by grief, something more grows. Guilt and anger cloud their feelings and jeopardize any chance at a future. How can love blossom in the shadow of death?
