Book Description
It seems to be a normal day for chief editor Mr. Raffel. While editing an article on Burnout he crosses out the fantasy figures that have helped a young woman to overcome her burnout. He is unaware of the upcoming change in his life: Fulna-the cheeky red dragonlady - hatches in his office. With her innocent questions she is prone to turn Mr Raffel's world "upside down". That way also his Family learns about the dragonlady's existence. At first the dragonbaby appears to be a tiresome duty to Mr. Raffel. But after a while the chief-editor realizes that he is lacking something in his successful and yet hectic life... A healing fairy tale in English and Spanish for adults and children that is worth thinking about. Video: Youtube "Fulna Renate Renate". More Information (in English) on Renate Weber's next novel "Renate- or the journey to the centre of the Self" under www.wiedergeborene.de No es ninguna coincidencia lo que le ocurre al señor Raffel. Parece un día como cualquier otro cuando el redactor jefe recorta a su merced un artículo sobre el agotamiento. Eliminia exactamentelos seres de fantasía que ayudaron a una paciente a superar su agotamiento. Pero él no sabe todavía que su vida está a punto de cambiar. Y mucho: En su oficina "Fulna", la atrevida dragona roja-rompe el cascarón y sale del huevo. Sus preguntas inocentes generarán el caos en la vide del redactor jefe- y la de su familia. Al principio el Señor Raffel considera "la bébé dragona" Como una incómoda obligación. Pero con el tiempo comprende que en su vida apresurada y aparentamente exitosa, le falte algo... Un cuento de curación en castellano e inglés para adultus y niños que lleva a la reflexión. Video: Youtube "Fulna Renate Renate".

Winter Letters (Galician Wave Book 6)
Author: Agustin Fernandez Paz
Publisher:
ISBN: 9789543840410
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
"The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown," writes H. P. Lovecraft at the start of his essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature." In real life, the author Agustin Fernandez Paz, Galicia's answer to H. P. Lovecraft, is reading the newspaper and comes across a classified ad for a haunted house. He imagines what would happen if someone answered that ad. Then what would happen if they went to see the house and liked it. Then what would happen if they had enough money and decided to buy it. And finally what would happen if they went to live there and discovered that the house was really haunted. This is the plot of "Winter Letters," one of the best-selling Galician novels of all time. The house will bring to mind, for older readers, the Bates' home in Alfred Hitchcock's film "Psycho." Inside the house is a book of prints that may remind younger readers of Tom Riddle's diary in "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." However this may be, the reader is sure to be drawn in by the force and power of the narrative, which is as smooth and sinuous as the sirens' song heard by Ulysses from the sanctuary of the mast of his ship. Agustin Fernandez Paz is the author of another novel in English, "Black Air," about a psychiatrist's race against time to save his patient from a malignant presence, the Great Beast. He was awarded the Spanish National Prize for Literature in 2008 and is Spain's nominee for the Hans Christian Andersen Award. Other titles in the series Galician Wave include: "Dragal I: The Dragon's Inheritance" and "Dragal II: The Dragon's Metamorphosis" by Elena Gallego Abad, "Dove and Cut Throat" by Fina Casalderrey, "The Painter with the Hat of Mallows" by Marcos Calveiro and "I Love You Leo A. Destination Somewhere" by Rosa Aneiros."

Latin American Poetry
Author: Gordon Brotherston
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521207638
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
This study considers the ways Spanish American and Brazilian poets differ from their European counterparts by considering 'Latin American' as more than a perfunctory epithet. It sets the orthodox Latin tradition of the subcontinent against others that have survived or grown up after the conquest then pays attention to those poets who, from Independence, have striven to express a specifically American moral and geographical identity. Dr Brotherson focuses on Modernismo, or the 'coming of age' of poetry in Spanish America and Brazil, and the importance of the movements associated with it. He considers César Vallejo and Pablo Neruda, probably the greatest of the selection, Octavio Paz, and modern poets who have reacted differently to the idea that Latin America might now be thought to have not just a geographical but a nascent political identity of its own. Poems are liberally quoted, and treated as entities in their own right.
