Mediante un lenguaje sutil y sugerente que conjuga literatura, chats y emoticones, este nuevo libro de Maria Cristina Gonzalez nos sumerge en las vidas de ocho jovencitas que sortean situaciones cotidianas salpicadas por lo extraordinario: la nueva alumna que termina en una redada policial, un posible noviazgo que revela al mejor amigo del resto de la vida, un dialogo a modo de diario personal con la mascota amada, un repentino enamoramiento que coincide con San Valentin, un ganso en migracion que al extraviarse augura futuros maravillosos. y un inspirador relato final que abre sus paginas para la escritura de una nueva historia. Estos cuentos, entretejidos con el calendario escolar y las cuatro estaciones, pintan los retos y los suenos de ocho adolescentes actuales, un poco emproblemadas pero dispuestas a vivir sus suenos y experiencias. Un libro inolvidable.Ellas entre las estrellas nos invita a recorrer el corazon cambiante de la adolescencia, donde cada estacion guarda una leccion secreta. Entre suenos, culpas y despertares, las jovenes protagonistas buscan su voz en medio de los contrastes -entre culturas, familias y mundos que a veces no se entienden-. Del otono al verano, estas historias reflejan la vida real con la delicadeza de quien mira por primera vez el mundo y siente, entre lagrimas y esperanza, que crecer tambien es aprender a amar.Rita WirkalaMaria Cristina Gonzalez da voz a jovenes protagonistas que enfrentan la perdida, el amor, la amistad y la busqueda de identidad, con una sensibilidad que ilumina tanto lo cotidiano como lo trascendente. Cada historia revela una emocion distinta -el miedo, la esperanza, la culpa o la valentia- y muestra que crecer implica tambien aprender a reconciliarse con uno mismo.Alexandra Castrillon Gomez This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Desnuda es mas que un libro de poemas: es un acto de valentia emocional. En estas paginas, Silvia Rey transforma el dolor en palabras de resiliencia, perdon, amor y luz. A traves de una prosa poetica cargada de intimidad y belleza, la autora emprende un proceso de liberacion: se despoja -una a una- de las memorias que marcaron su alma, hasta quedar frente al lector, desnuda de mascaras y ataduras. Leer este libro es acompanar a la escritora en este viaje retrospectivo por su mundo interior, y tal vez, una invitacion a emprender el propio. Silvia Rey es una escritora ecuatoriana radicada en Nueva York. Autora de Veleta (Editorial El Conejo, 2006), una novela de amor, reencuentros y suspenso ambientada entre Ecuador y Estados Unidos, y del libro de investigacion La construccion de la noticia: corrupcion y piponazgo (Universidad Andina Simon Bolivar, 2003). Sus cuentos han sido publicados en New York en la Antologia Latinoamericana y en revistas literarias como Hybrido Literary y Enclave. Periodista de vocacion, ha trabajado como directora de prensa de la Asamblea Nacional del Ecuador, cronista parlamentaria y periodista en radio, prensa y television. Licenciada en Comunicacion Social, posee una maestria en Literatura por Queens College (City University of New York) y en Estudios Latinoamericanos (Universidad Andina Simon Bolivar). La poesia de Silvia Rey se despliega como un viaje intimo hacia la memoria, el amor y la vida cotidiana, donde lo personal se entrelaza con lo universal. Con un lenguaje claro y emotivo, sus versos transmiten la fuerza de las emociones y la belleza de lo sencillo. Este poemario invita a detenerse, a escuchar las resonancias del recuerdo y a dejarse llevar por imagenes que conmueven y liberan.Laura Sabani, poeta y narradora "Una risa contagiosa que brota del alma de un amanecer sin lluvia", asi es la poesia de Silvia Rey. Esta coleccion poetica muestra a una mujer tierna y poderosa, rebelde, duena de su destino. Hay aqui una mirada sobre la nostalgia, la naturaleza, la maternidad, la migracion, la pasion y el dolor por la vida. Sencillamente, este es un libro hermoso.Elssie Cano, escritora, editora de la revista Hybrido en New York En Desnuda, Silvia Rey utiliza la memoria y el espejo como fuente y recurso para construir su discurso poetico, emprendiendo asi un viaje hacia las profundidades del ser. Con una mirada cruda y valientemente honesta, recupera y amalgama fragmentos de vida que revelan transitos dolorosos. El lenguaje se convierte en un espacio especular y reflexivo donde la voz poetica se redefine, forja su identidad y emerge fortalecida de la ruindad y la miseria humana, aferrandose a la unica razon valida de su existencia: el amor. La poesia actua como refugio y balsamo, permitiendo a la poeta descubrir la oportunidad de "[trasladarse] en el tunel del tiempo / a los antes y despues de su existencia / para reencontrarse consigo / para abrazarse desnuda / para reinventarse como tantas veces".Margarita Drago, poeta y narradora En Desnuda, Silvia Rey se despoja de los miedos y nos invita a problematizar, sin reticencias, las ideas introyectadas y concebidas como verdades absolutas en la interaccion humana. Al hacerlo, el lector es testigo de ese laberinto en el que se dan la mano la perdida, el dolor y la fortaleza, en un frente que le procura al hablante poetico una suerte de salida en la que se vislumbra la ocasion para un nuevo comienzo. Estos poemas, como dos caras de una misma moneda, representan el desamparo y el refugio para quienes buscan entender las complejidades de la vida y el poder transformador del amor.Juana M. Ramos, poeta y narradora This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Pondering Stars on the Pond poseses a subtlety that renders it at once romantic, sensual, melancholic, and mystical. Through that mysticism, Junghwa Splendor Kim reaches beyond the reader to touch the universe it self -God, the celestial bodies, nature, philosophy, and her inner most self. Her poems, rich in musicality and orchestrated by silence, build a bridge between the universe of poetry and our shared hum an existence, iluminated by her singular sensibility." Felipe Hugueno, Asociate Profesor of Hispanic Studies, Virginia Wesleyan University. "This collection successfully blends Oriental aesthetics with Spanish sensuality, inviting readers into Junghwa Splendor Kim's rich and intricate world, where the intimate and the external engage in a compelling dialogue of discerning minds, offering a resonant feast for the senses." Alejandro Varderi, Professor of Hispanic Studies, The City University of New York (CUNY). Junghwa Splendor Kim, born in South Korea, majored in Spanish and French at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies. Captivated by Nobel laureates Pablo Neruda and Gabriela Mistral, she relocated to Chile -a land radiating with poetry- where she earned a master's degree and Ph.D. in Latin American literature at the Universidad de Chile. Now based in Santiago, she works as a KBS correspondent and translator, navigating Korean, English, Spanish, and French -the languages in which she has published poetry collections and short stories. Her recent collection, Pondering Stars on the Pond, features English poems woven with nostalgia, melancholy, and wonder at life's beauty. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In each of the six stories that make up No Loitering (Prohibido Hanguear), Esteban Escalona presents us with a gallery of endearing and disconcerting characters: from a fraternal little mouse and a ruthless real estate agent, to a disoriented immigrant in search of love and a father separated from his daughter. With agile, ironic, and sensitive prose, Escalona makes us feel the vital force that arises from the collision between what has been lost and what is longed for, between origin and destiny; that powerful force we call desire."This is a book that tells the story of New York, entering its neighborhoods with a new and refreshing sensitivity-one that resists the heavy tide of pessimism weighing down the world. And yet, it is no less profound or political for it. On the contrary: this book pulls the brightest light out of New York's darkest basements."Giovanna Rivero"The characters in No Loitering (Prohibido Hanguear) embody the distinctions that define their lives and the urban space they inhabit. In the stories that make up the collection, the perspectives transgress by revealing and re-creating aspects of reality the reader thought they already knew. These characters confront urban myths, individualism, rootlessness, and the notion of borders within the private sphere. In these tensions lie both the act of resistance and the attachment to life."Pablo Garcia Gamez This item is printed on demand.
