Libro: In the Sea there are Crocodiles (978-0-09-955545-2) de Geda, Fabio (Vintage ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. I read somewhere that the decision to emigrate comes from a need to breathe.

At the age of ten, Enaiatollah Akbari was left alone to fend for himself. This is the heartbreaking, unforgettable story of his journey from Afghanistan to Italy in an attempt to find a safe place to live. 0

Libro: The Basque History of the World (978-0-09-928413-0) de Kurlansky, Mark (Vintage ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Humanas .Historia .Historia De Europa .. The Basques are Europe's oldest people, their origins a mystery, their language related to no other on Earth, and even though few in population and from a remote and rugged corner of Spain and France, they have had a profound impact on the world. Whilst inward-looking, preserving their ancient language and customs, the Basques also struck out for new horizons, pioneers of whaling and cod fishing, leading the way in exploration of the Americas and Asia, were among the first capitalists and later led Southern Europe's industrial revolution. Mark Kurlansky, the author of the acclaimed Cod , blends human stories with economic, political, literary and culinary history to paint a fascinating picture of an intriguing people. 0

Libro: Open Secrets (978-0-09-945971-2) de Munro, Alice (Vintage ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Libros de Ciencia Ficción .. These are stories in which women are central.

A heart patient on a trip to her doctor on a hot summer's day has a revelation about the lasting power of an old love. A long-hidden secret sticks in the consciousness of a young woman, who, in an outrageous but entirely satisfying act, finally rids herself of its thrall. A romantic tale of capture and escape in the wilds of central Europe may or may not be true, but it comforts the hearer who, on an adventure of her own, is fleeing her hushand. Two childhood friends resolve their lives in a madcap and unexpected way on a memorable midsummer's eve. A pioneer woman homesteading in the Canadian wilderness with her new husband and his brother devises a clever stratagem for eluding the certain and dire fate that awaits her if she remains on the farm. 0
