Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream
Par William Shakespeare, Arthur Rackham. 2003
Shakespeare's incomparable romantic comedy takes on a new and vivid life in these brilliant images by one of the 20th…
century's leading illustrators. The fairy world of A Midsummer Night's Dream is the perfect milieu for the artistry of Arthur Rackham, a popular illustrator of fairy tales who possessed a striking gift for depicting fanciful creatures. His dreamlike visions provide a series of unique portraits from the enchanted wood outside ancient Athena, where Oberon and Titania rule a kingdom of diminutive sprites. Rackham's career coincided with the era known as the Golden Age of Illustration, an age that witnessed the rise of increasingly sophisticated color printing techniques. His interpretation of A Midsummer Night's Dream, which first appeared in 1908, received the full benefit of the improved technology, and this faithful reprint offers a quality of printing and sharpness of reproduction that rivals the limited and first editions. The complete text of the play appears here, along with 40 full-color and numerous black-and-white illustrations — a splendid tribute by a master of fantasy art to an immortal play.La venganza de las cajas
Par Víctor Almazán. 2012
Un abuelo cascarrabias y una adolescente descubrirán el mayor fraude de la televisión española. Premio Jaén de Novela Juvenil 2011.…
Cuando Eva sale de su primera clase en la universidad, encuentra seis llamadas perdidas de Porto, su compañero de piso. Ella acaba de llegar a Madrid para estudiar, conocer gente y sacar partido de la gran ciudad. Él es un anciano cascarrabias obsesionado con la tele. Preocupada, Eva vuelve a casa para asegurarse de que el hombre esté bien; pero él la espera sentado tan tranquilo en el sofá y le dice que han intentado matarle. En realidad, que el mismísimo José Luis de Morterone, gran magnate de las comunicaciones, quiere deshacerse de él porque no deja que manipulen su audímetro, el aparato para registrar las audiencias televisivas. ¿Quién se creería un cuento como este? Eva, seguro que no: a ella nunca le han gustado ni las bromas pesadas ni las historias policíacas, no se las acaba de creer#Kokoschka's Doll

"A novel par excellence that is destined to become a classic' of almost byzantine splendour . . . At its…
best worthy of comparison with Gabriel García Márquez" Catherine Taylor, Irish Times"Afonso Cruz is one of the strongest voices in contemporary Portuguese literature" Antonio Saez Delgado, El PaisAt the age of forty-two, Bonifaz Vogel begins to hear a voice.But it doesn't belong to the mice or the woodworm, as he first imagines. Nor is it the voice of God, as he comes to believe. It belongs to young Isaac Dresner, who takes refuge in the cellar of Vogel's bird shop on the run from the soldier who shot his best friend. Soon Vogel comes to rely on it for advice: he cannot make a sale without first bending down to confer with the floorboards. Thus begins the story of two Dresden families, fractured and displaced by the devastating bombing of the city 1945, their fates not only intertwined, but bound also to that of a life-sized doll commissioned by the artist Oskar Kokoschka in the image of his lost lover.Based on a curious true story, Kokoschka's Doll is an imaginative and playful novel that transports the reader to Dresden, Paris, Lagos and Marrakesh, introducing them to an unforgettable cast of characters along the way.Translated from the Portuguese by Rahul Bery
