Paperback. Condition: Good. In her exploration of the multiverse theory, Alvarez deals with several griefs created by the loss of two pregnancies, a beloved granduncle, her infant son, and finally her father, in the span of just four years, by constructing multiple alternate realities in which one or more of these people survive…d. In this process, Alvarez deals frankly and sometimes even starkly with death and its consequences on individuals and families. The book directly addresses the questions that plague many people who grieve: What if I had done this instead of that? Would it have mattered? Is there such a thing as fate?The topic of family and loss is a natural one for Alvarez, whose family emigrated from Cuba after the communist revolution, leaving all that they had ever known and loved behind, counting on the gamble of a better life in the United States. Like many immigrants at the time, they spent four years in Spain, where Alvarez was born, before moving permanently to Miami, Florida, where Alvarez still lives. This part of Alvarez's past informs a string of poems set before the main event of the book, the death of her son. The main string of the book's narrative is memoir; Alvarez suffered a miscarriage in 2016 that she explores briefly in a few poems (all the poems are titled versions numbered according to the narrative string they belong to). In 2017, she lost her beloved granduncle, Arturo, a grandfather figure. In 2018 she gave birth at just 27 1/2 weeks to twins, a boy named after her uncle and a girl. Thought it seemed at first as if her micro preemies were doing well, Arturo died of sepsis just twenty-six days after being born. She would spend another 66 days in the NICU until her daughter, Sara, was safe enough to bring home. A year later, her father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and then died unexpectedly of a heart attack. This real timeline is woven into alternate timelines where some of these people survived or never existed, begging the questions, What if? and Why?The poems are written in narrative style, bypassing the opportunity for pathos such a storyline might involve. Alvarez's language is sure-footed and unflinching, not unwilling to delve into the darkest parts of memory and desire. The narrative strains are woven in such a way as to have the poems speak to one another instead of following chronology, yet the reader could tease each narrative string out of the braid using the poems' titles, providing two ways to read the book. Whichever way the book is read, however, it reinforces the themes of the importance of family, the longing for reconciliation, and the questioning of faith. The book's darkness is tempered by its never-ending supply of hope, in the form of the alternative narratives each of which is a version of the poet's life untainted by fear and loss.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Vexel (Fani Álvarez): Mara y Gwen han contratado un Vexel, un cuerpo sintético que funciona de soporte físico para un sistema de transferencia de consciencia en tiempo real con el que quieren darle a Gwen una oportunidad para recuperar su vida anterior. Amor de espinas (Celia Añó): Nat h…a tenido un encuentro que parece de cuento. Y, sin embargo, a ella no le ha hecho ni pizca de gracia. Ahora tiene un mago en su casa que insiste en recordarle una parte de su adolescencia que ella ha enterrado para siempre. Anomalía (Isabel Collazo): Las anomalías deben ser erradicadas. En la Era de la Perfección no tienen cabida; los sentimientos se han eliminado y el ser humano por fin ha sido mejorado. Leira no ha dejado de huir desde hace demasiado tiempo. Ahora regresa a casa. Por Naren. Todo ha sido siempre por ella. La reliquia del Titán (Mar Hernández): Kaeldris ha nacido con la bendición de los Guardianes y por tradición debe formarse en la Escuela de los Elegidos. Detesta esta norma, así que no es un buen estudiante. Su actitud lo enfrentará a su verdadero destino. ¿Estará preparado para aceptarlo o abandonará al mundo? Kalasona (Patricia Macías): Kala se considera la mejor ladrona de todo Péndulo desde el legendario Chor Izo, pero, para que el resto del mundo lo vea tan claro como ella, tiene que dar un gran golpe. Con esa intención se cuela en palacio. Su plan se tuerce, sin embargo, al conocer a Sona. El precio de la inspiración (Ana Morán Infiesta): Cuando se ofrece voluntaria para probar una cibermusa, Teresa confía en romper con el bloqueo creativo y emocional en el que está sumida desde la muerte de su mujer en un atentado. El proceso tal vez no sea tan inocuo como ella espera. 99,9 % (Andrea Prieto Pérez): Octavia Rey es feliz. Al menos, eso dice la aplicación y no tiene motivos para dudar. Aunque sabe que hay algo que la haría más feliz todavía: ser la primera en escribir un buen artículo sobre la desaparición de Belle Sanz. ¿Qué le ocurrió a la celebridad del momento? Lux tenebrae (Leticia S. Murga): Cuando Belén comenzó a recibir aquellas misteriosas cartas de contenido grotesco, que le advertían de un peligro inminente, pensó que se trataba de una broma pesada. Era imposible que tuvieran ni una pizca de verdad ¿o no? Huesos de manzana (Marina Tena Tena): Carmen se ha prometido volver a estar bien: retomar el control de su vida. Por eso va a pasar unos días al pueblo de su padre, para desconectar y quizá encontrarse a sí misma. Era la idea, hasta que escucha el grito en el monte. (Y es que bajo el bosque duermen muchos secretos). *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
