Hasta que las piedras se vuelvan más ligeras que el agua
by António Lobo AntunesAntónio Lobo Antunes, «el mejor autor vivo de Portugal», regresa a los fantasmas de la guerra de Angola con una novela vertiginosa marcada por la violencia de la colonización y el racismo. «António Lobo Antunes ha levantado otra novela-catedral. Sobre la memoria, el sufrimiento,la pérdida, el amor y todas las cosas frágiles, casi indecibles, que se nos escapan o nos faltan».José Mario Silva, ExpressoHasta que las piedras se vuelvan más ligeras que el agua es un libro vertiginoso, violento y, por momentos, duro. Maestro de la prosa introspectiva, António Lobo Antunes teje en esta novela coral un tapiz en el que las emociones fluyen en una danza hipnótica, entre pasado y presente. En las calles empedradas de Lisboa, las voces de múltiples generaciones resuenan en una desgarradora sinfonía. A través de los ojos y los corazones de personajes inolvidables, Lobo Antunes nos guía por las vidas de una familia marcada por la violencia y los secretos, los amores prohibidos y los deseos inconfesables. Hasta que las piedras se vuelvan más ligeras que el agua es una novela que desafía las convenciones literarias, y que invita al lector a explorar la naturaleza de la identidad, de la pérdida y de las relaciones personales. Lobo Antunes edifica otra obra maestra que discurre como un río melancólico, arrastrándonos en su corriente mientras nos sumerge en una experiencia de lectura que perdurará mucho después de haber vuelto la última página. Una novela, en definitiva, donde las palabras se convierten en un espejo de las almas, capturando la esencia misma del ser humano. La crítica ha dicho:«Las escenas de Lobo Antunes están animadas por la poesía de lo cotidiano y teñidas de la autoparodia más fina».J.M. Coetzee «El heredero de Conrad y Faulkner».George Steiner «Lobo Antunes muestra empatía hacialas contradicciones de los sentimientos humanos. Es un escritor de sangre caliente».The New York Times Book Review «Uno de los retratistas psicológicos más hábiles».The New Yorker «Leer la prosa del más grande escritor portugués, que es también uno de los más grandes escritores de su época, es una experiencia rara, inquietante y, al mismo tiempo, cautivadora».Bruno Corty, Le Figaro«Un autor con una facilidad prodigiosa para atrapar obras maestras que dentro de cinco mil años, en arcilla o en polvo de estrellas, continuará siendo leído con pasión».El País

Hattie Ever After
by Kirby LarsonAfter leaving Uncle Chester's homestead claim, orphan Hattie Brooks throws a lasso around a new dream, even bigger than the Montana sky. She wants to be a reporter, knowing full well that a few pieces published in the Arlington News will not suffice. Real reporters must go to Grand Places, and do Grand Things, like Hattie's hero Nellie Bly. Another girl might be stymied by this, but Hattie has faced down a hungry wolf and stood up to a mob of angry men. Nothing can squash her desire to write for a big city newspaper. A letter and love token from Uncle Chester's old flame in San Francisco fuels that desire and Hattie jumps at the opportunity to get there by working as a seamstress for a traveling acting troupe. This could be her chance to solve the mystery of her "scoundrel" uncle and, in the process, help her learn more about herself. But Hattie must first tell Charlie that she will not join him in Seattle. Even though her heart approves of Charlie's plan for their marriage, her mind fears that saying yes to him would be saying no to herself. Hattie holds her own in the big city, literally pitching her way to a byline, and a career that could be even bigger than Nellie Bly's. But can making headlines compensate for the pain of betrayal and lost love? Hattie must dig deep to find her own true place in the world. Kirby Larson once again creates a lovingly written novel about the remarkable and resilient young orphan, Hattie Inez Brooks.
