Pashazade (Arabesk #1)
by Jon Courtenay GrimwoodPart mystery, part speculative fiction, and wholly unforgettable, Jon Courtenay Grimwood’s celebrated Arabesk series portrays the dark, hard-boiled story of a man out to prove his innocence in an alternate world where the facts aren’t always the same as the truth ... and murder isn’t the worst that can happen. It’s a twenty-first century hauntingly familiar and yet startlingly different from our own. Here the United States brokered a deal that ended World War I, and the Ottoman Empire never collapsed. And lording it over all sits the complex, seductive, and bloodthirsty North African metropolis of El Iskandryia. Almost nothing is what it seems to be in El Isk, and Ashraf Bey is no exception. Neither the rich Ottoman aristocrat everyone thinks he is, nor the minor street criminal once shipped off to prison when he fell foul of his Chinese Triad employers–the fact is that Raf has as little idea who he is as anyone else. With few clues and no money, all Raf has is a surname hinting at noble heritage and an arranged marriage to a woman who hates him. But nothing Ashraf al Mansur learns about himself is as unexpected—-or as terrifying—-as the brutal murder he’s accused of committing. Now, as a hunted man with the welfare of a precocious young girl in his irresponsible hands, Raf must race after a killer through an unforgiving city as foreign to him as the truth he'll uncover about himself.

Los pasos perdidos (Literatura Alfaguara Ser. #Vol. 17)
by Alejo Carpentier&“Hace dos días que andamos sobre el armazón del planeta, olvidados de la Historia y hasta de las oscuras migraciones de las eras sin crónicas. […] Lo que se abre ante nuestros ojos es el mundo anterior al hombre.&”Huyendo de una existencia vacía y rutinaria en la ciudad de Nueva York, un compositor viaja con su amante hasta un poblado perdido en las profundidades de una selva en Sudamérica en busca de instrumentos primitivos. El protagonista remonta el río Orinoco hasta sus orígenes y va descubriendo los estratos temporales de la humanidad, mediante una regresión en el tiempo en la que al mismo tiempo irá descubriéndose a sí mismo. Allí tendrá que decidir si quiere permanecer en un mundo primitivo, carente de bienes materiales pero donde ha encontrado la felicidad, o retornar a la civilización.Los pasos perdidos es una profunda reflexión sobre el mundo moderno y el estado de la humanidad vista a través del lente del realismo mágico y narrada en un estilo barroco que Carpentier lleva al límite, como ningún otro escritor podría. Una obra maestra. &“En esencia, el protagonista de la novela ha enfrentado el drama eterno de la toma de una decisión que implica la ejercitación de su albedrío, el gran desafío que entraña la práctica de la libertad del individuo… La singularidad del valor de lo artístico radica en que esa conclusión y encrucijada sigan siendo pertinentes para los que hoy leemos la novela…&” Del prólogo de Leonardo Padura
