Soft cover. Condition: Very Good to Fine. Gary Viskupi (illustrator). Third Edition. inventory = B 182 Pages; ** Time Travel novel (Lest Darkness Fall) in which the method of time travel was rationalized and the hero's technical expertise both set at a believable level and constrained by the technological limitations of the age; ** Martin Padaway was a smart enough young man, with a scientific education, but no universal genius. He had the misfortune to be suddenly dropped back into time, and a very alarming time at that-sinth century Rome, when the Goths ruled Italy, and civilization in the west was collapsing. To make a living, and to try and shore up civilization, Padaway undertook to introduce inventions such as gunpowder, clocks, and printing.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Ana María Martínez Sagi (1907-2000) nació en Barcelona. Destacó en las más variadas disciplinas deportivas, llegando a obtener una medalla de oro en lanzamiento de jabalina en el primer campeonato nacional de atletismo femenino, en 1931. Pionera del feminismo catalán, llegaría también a ser la primera mujer directiva en Europa de un Club de Fútbol, el Barcelona, en 1934. Preocupada siempre por la promoción y la participación política de la mujer, colaboró en diversos diarios y revistas durante la Segunda República, enarbolando un periodismo en catalán y castellano del que recogemos lo más granado de su producción- que destaca por su modernidad, compromiso social y atención a las reivindicaciones feministas, sin olvidar sus crónicas en el frente de Aragón durante nuestra Guerra Civil, en la que fue herida. Sagi llegó a ser considerada heredera de Rosalía Castro, desarrollando su poesía en castellano durante más de cuarenta años desde 1929. Se exilió en Francia y más tarde en Estados Unidos, donde trabajó como profesora de español y francés en la Universidad de Illinois. A su regreso a España, en los años setenta, decidió recluirse en la localidad de Moià, desengañada de los ambientes literarios. Murió en una residencia de ancianos en Santpedor. El escritor Juan Manuel de Prada (Baracaldo, Vizcaya, 1970) realiza esta edición antológica como reivindicador de la figura de esta deportista, feminista y escritora olvidada, que recuperó hace ya dos décadas en su novela Las esquinas del aire. Recientemente, en esta misma colección, se encargó de la edición de Sinfonía en rojo, libro dedicado a Elisabeth Mulder, escritora por la que Sagi tuvo toda su vida una admiración amorosa. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
