Los viajes de Gulliver
by Jonathan SwiftLos mejores libros jamás escritos. «La imaginación no puede concebir nada tan grande, sorprendente y asombroso.» Los viajes de Gulliver fue publicada por primera vez en 1726, y tres siglos después mantiene toda su vigencia. Esta célebre novela satírica es a la vez un relato de aventuras y una artera reflexión filosófica sobre la constitución de las sociedades modernas. Los encuentros del naufragante Lemuel Gulliver con los minúsculos liliputienses, los gigantes de Brobdingnag, los filosóficos houyhnhnms y los brutos yahoos harán que el protagonista, como el lector, abra los ojos a la cruda y verdadera naturaleza humana. Robert DeMaria, Jr., reconocido especialista en literatura inglesa de los siglos XVII y XVIII, firma la introducción que abre el volumen y da paso a una de las más prestigiosas versiones a nuestro idioma de este clásico de las letras universales, firmada por el catedrático Pedro Guardia Massó.

Losing the Plot
by Annaleise ByrdA tremendous whooshing noise started up. It sounded like a million pages being riffled at once. I caught a strong whiff of gingerbread. Then The Complete Fairytales of the Brothers Grimm flew open and a human-shaped blur came shooting out . . . Basil Beedon and Terry Clegg are neighbors, and that's all they have in common. Terry loves sport and Basil loves books—but to Basil’s absolute dismay, he’s been roped into helping Terry with his reading. Every. Single. Saturday. However, that's the least of his worries when Gretel comes shooting out of The Complete Fairytales of the Brothers Grimm. The boys are plunged into a dangerous world run by the Fairytale Alliance Network of Character Yunions (FANCY), where not everyone is what they seem, Hansel has been kidnapped, and a plot hole threatens to destroy everything. Witty, clever, with adventure at every turn, this is a fractured fairytale in a very surprising, Grimm world.
