Whether it was the scandalous Lord Byron, whose poetry sent female fans into an erotic frenzy; or the cheetah-owning, coffin-sleeping, one-legged French actress Sarah Bernhardt, who launched a violent feud with her former best friend; or Edmund Kean, the dazzling Shakespearean actor whose monstrous ego and terrible alcoholism saw him nearly murdered by his own audience....

Este libro es como un relámpago en un cielo claro. Decir que la novela heroica, espléndida, elocuente y desinhibida, ha retornado de pronto en una época de un antirromanticismo casi patológico, sería inadecuado. Para quienes vivimos en esa extraña época, el retorno —y el alivio que nos trae— es sin duda lo más importante. Pero para la historia misma de la novela —una historia que se remonta a la Odisea y a antes de la Odisea— no es un retorno, sino un paso adelante o una revolución: la conquista de un territorio nuevo. —C.S. Lewis, Time & Tide, 1954...

Meet our heroine, Mo. She’s every dyke’s dream—or so she’s been told by her kind and supportive friends. She’s shy but passionate, politically aware, as committed to her egalitarian all-womyn’s softball team as she is to her volunteer work at the Gay and Lesbian Community Center. So why can’t she find a girlfriend? Could it possibly be because she’s more judgmental than Gertrude Stein and more self-sabotaging than Bojack Horseman?

Muy pocas veces alguien se atrevió a recomendar tan fervientemente una novela. "Merece vender más ejemplares que la Biblia", afirmó Rebel Inc., una insolente revista literaria escocesa. De inmediato celebrada por los críticos más estrictos pero leída también por aquellos que raramente se acercan a los libros, "Trainspotting" se convirtió en uno de los acontecimientos literarios y también extraliterarios de la última década.

Fue rápidamente adaptada al teatro y luego llevada a la pantalla por Danny Boyle, uno de los jóvenes prodigio del cine inglés...

(Tom Holland) 'Delightful, surprising and hilarious, this is a fascinating history of the everyday objects and inventions we take for granted.'

But the Society he faithfully served was built on lies. Darrow’s kind have been betrayed and denied by their elitist masters, the Golds—and their only path to liberation is revolution.

Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media. Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again - our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness and our unconscious beliefs and fears.

The summer that Nixon resigns, six teenagers at a summer camp for the arts become inseparable. Decades later the bond remains powerful, but so much else has changed. In The Interestings, Wolitzer follows these characters from the height of youth through middle age, as their talents, fortunes, and degrees of satisfaction diverge. The kind of creativity that is rewarded at age 15 is not always enough to propel someone through life at age 30; not everyone can sustain, in adulthood, what seemed so special in adolescence.
