Libro: The Zone of Interest (978-0-09-959368-3) de Amis, Martin (Random House ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Novela y Narrativa Extranjera .. Encuadernación: Rústica 'Surely his masterpiece Intelligent, terrifying and comic Amis has tackled the biggest questions with imagination and intelligence, and the ultimate strength of this masterly novel is that he knows, and shows, that although there is no answer to the questions Auschwitz poses, we must never stop asking them. Read it, ponder it revel in it indeed then read it again.' Allan Massie, Scotsman There was an old story about a king who asked his favourite wizard to create a magic mirror. This mirror didn't show you your reflection. Instead, it showed you your soul it showed you who you really were. But the king couldn't look into the mirror without turning away, and nor could his courtiers. No one could. What happens when we discover who we really are? And how do we come to terms with it? Fearless and original, The Zone of Interest is a violently dark love story set against a backdrop of unadulterated evil, and a vivid journey into the depths and contradictions of the human soul. 0

Libro: The Ball at Versailles (978-0-593-49836-1) de Steel, Danielle (Random House ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Four American debutantes attend a renowned Paris cotillion in Danielle Steel's captivating new novel. It's the summer of 1959 and the Palace of Versailles is hosting an event that will make history. It is an exclusive dusk-to-dawn ball in which a select group of American and French debutantes will be presented to international society and royalty. Four young women, all with something to prove, receive what some see as the invitation of a lifetime. Amelia Alexander, who hopes to eventually attend law school, hesitates to participate in what she sees as an archaic and privileged tradition. But her indomitable widowed mother, Jane, who's struggled financially and sacrificed for a career, encourages her to attend. Jane would do anything for Amelia to have the chance at a happily ever after. Felicity Smith is equally uncertain about the ball. Although her family is prominent in the Dallas social scene, Felicity prefers to keep to herself, avoiding the older sister who torments her. But to get out of her sister's shadow, Felicity decides to accept. If it's a success, the tables will have turned at last. For Caroline Taylor, the beautiful ingnue and daughter of Hollywood legends, the ball is an irresistible opportunity. But an unexpected heartbreak just before she leaves for France gets things off to a bad start. Then there's Samantha Walker, an art history major with an overprotective father. Her excitement about the invitation is overshadowed by the emotional and physical effects of a past tragedy that still haunts her. For all these young women, Paris and one transcendent night will change their lives forever. Bestselling author Danielle Steel extends an invitation to all, in The Ball at Versailles . 0

Libro: Los altruistas (978-84-397-3849-7) de Ridker, Andrew (Random House ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Novela y Narrativa Extranjera .. Un extraordinario debut ( The New York Review of Books ) traducido enmás de 20 países, multipremiado y alabado por la crítica internacional. Leyendo la primera novela de Andrew Ridker pronto descubres que estás en presencia de un nuevo talento [...]. Su prosa es fresca y divertidísima. The Times Arthur Alter no está pasando por un buen momento. Profesor universitario, mediocre y sesentón, tiene harta a su jovencísima novia, nopuede pagar la hipoteca y sus hijos, Ethan y Maggie, no le dirigen la palabra. Para evitar perder la lujosa casa familiar, Arthur decide invitarles a pasar un fin de semana con la excusa de una reconciliación, pero con la intención real de hacerse con la pequeña fortuna secreta que su difunta esposa Francine les legó. Desde el fallecimiento de su madre, Ethan vive en Nueva York y se ha convertido en un ermitaño. Ha abandonado su trabajo, se ha comprado un apartamento que no se puede permitir y su parte de la herencia prácticamente ha desaparecido. Maggie, por su parte, se haconvertido en una especie de asceta voluntaria. No quiere tocar el legado de su madre, pero, al mismo tiempo, solo consigue trabajos mal pagados que no le dan ni para subsistir. Contra todo pronóstico, ambos aceptarán la invitación de su padre sin que este imagine que todos tienen una agenda oculta. Los altruistas es una oscura y divertida saga familiar que afronta la división entre los babyboomers y su descendencia millennial, que nos recuerda que todos cometemos errores y que, de alguna manera, lo importante es encontrar el camino de vuelta. La crítica ha dicho: El arrollador debut de Ridker sigue las angustias de la familia Alter, judía, de clase media, en su búsqueda de la moralidad. Ridker, con su humor, agudeza y profundidad, ha creado una novela que impactará a los lectores. Publishers Weekly El entrañable final abre la posibilidad de un futuro brillante para la familia, quees precisamente lo que parece que le depara al dotado autor de este extraordinario debut.

The Daily Mail Los altruistas es consciente de las contradicciones entre moralidad y comodidad que están presentes por todos lados bajo las estructuras globales del capitalismo y de la política. The New Yorker Con una prosa aguda y precisión de cirujano, disecciona el desmembramiento de una familia. Lo que ocultamos en las sombras nunca fue tan...

Libro: Behave (978-0-09-957506-1) de Sapolsky, Robert M. (Random House ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Técnicas .Historia de la ciencia .. A ground-breaking synthesis of the entire science of human behaviour by 'one of the best scientist-writers of our time' (Oliver Sacks) -- 'It's no exaggeration to say that Behave is one of the best nonfiction books I've ever read' Wall Street Journal Why do we do what we do? Behave is at once a dazzling tour and a majestic synthesis of the whole science of human behaviour. Brought to life through simple language, engaging stories and irreverent wit, it offers the fullest picture yet of the origins of tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, morality and free will, war and peace. Robert Sapolsky's ingenious method is to move backwards in time from the moment at which a behaviour occurs, layer by layer through the myriad influences that led to it: - We begin with the split-second reactions of the brain and nervous system... - Then we consider our response to sight, sound and smell in the minutes and seconds beforehand... - Next he explains the interactions of hormones, which prime our behaviour in the preceding hours and days... - He proceeds through the experiences of adolescence, childhood and foetal development that shape us over our lifespans... - And continues over centuries and millennia through the profound influences of genetic inheritance, cultural context and ultimately the evolutionary origins of our species. Throughout, Sapolsky considers the most important question: what causes acts of aggression or compassion? What inspires us to terrible deeds and what might help foster our best behaviour? Wise, humane, often very funny, Behave is a towering achievement, powerfully humanizing, that is unlikely to be surpassed for many years. 0
