Un aristócrata inglés que parece extraído de una novela victoriana.Una española que no respeta las normas sociales.Un amor más profundo que el orgullo y los prejuicios.Magdalena es la reina de las malas decisiones y quiza la peor de todas sea la de irse a vivir a Cornualles para perfeccionar su ingles, trabajando como niñera. O tal vez no, porque cuando le piden que imparta clases de español a un joven aristocrata poco imagina que su vida se va a convertir en una montaña rusa de emociones.Mientras intenta que el encantador y divertido joven se tome en serio las clases, en lugar de tratar de introducirla a ella en su elegante mundo de diversiones, tendra que lidiar con el hermano mayor, un marques mas rigido que una tabla de planchar y que le recuerda a Mr. Darcy, el protagonista de su novela preferida.Ralph Marston, marques de Blackbourne, dirige los negocios familiares con absoluta precision y seriedad, del mismo modo que lo hace con su propia vida. Muy a su pesar, esa rutina se vera alterada por la presencia de la joven contratada para enseñar español a su hermano. No tiene tiempo para lidiar con mas problemas, aunque provengan de una belleza morena con una sonrisa que le altera el ritmo cardiaco.Ya escribio Jane Austen que el orgullo y los prejuicios son malos compañeros para el amor, pero ¿acaso no todas las novelas romanticas tienen un final feliz?Entonces, ¿que puede salir mal entre un ingles estirado y una española que toma el te de las cinco de la tarde a las seis?Los lectores han dicho:Es una novela con una historia de amor preciosa, un giro inesperado y unos personajes secundarios maravillosos, en especial, Oliver es un amor.

In every life there is a turning point. A moment so tremendous, so sharp and breathtaking, that one knows ones life will never be the same. For Michael Stirling, Londons most infamous rake, that moment came the first time he laid eyes on Francesca Bridgerton. After a lifetime of chasing women, of smiling slyly as they chased him, of allowing himself to be caught but never permitting his heart to become engaged, he took one look at Francesca Bridgerton and fell so fast and hard into love it was a wonder he managed to remain standing. Unfortunately for Michael, however, Francescas surname was to remain Bridgerton for only a mere thirty-six hours longerthe occasion of their meeting was, lamentably, a supper celebrating her imminent wedding to his cousin. But that was then... Now Michael is the earl and Francesca is free, but still she thinks of him as nothing other than her dear friend and confidant. Michael dares not speak to her of his love... until one dangerous night, when she steps innocently into his arms, and passion proves stronger than even the most wicked of secrets..

In 1940, after Germany invaded the Netherlands, Anne and her family couldnt leave the country, so they decided to hide in a warehouse in an attempt to escape the persecution of Jews by the Nazis. For over two years, Anne wrote in her diary with an awareness that was extremely mature for her age. She detailed her experiences and insights while she and her family were in hiding, living in a constant fear of being arrested. The Diary of Anne Frank is a record of her understanding of the war and showcases her incredible storytelling abilities in such horrific circumstances. In 1944, the Franks were found and sent to concentration camps. Anne died before she turned 16, and her father, Otto Frank, was the only family member to survive the Holocaust. After the War, Otto returned to Amsterdam, where he found his daughters diary and then published i as The Diary of a Young Girl. The Diary of Anne Frank is among the most enduring documents of the twentieth century. Since its publication in 1947, it has been read by tens of millions of peopleall over the world. It remains a beloved and deeply admired testament to the indestructible nature of the human spirit.

Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontes only novel. It was first published in 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell, and a posthumous second edition was edited by her sister Charlotte. The name of the novel comes from the Yorkshire manor on the moors on which the story centres (as an adjective, wuthering is a Yorkshire word referring to turbulent weather). The narrative tells the tale of the all-encompassing and passionate, yet thwarted, love between Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, and how this unresolved passion eventually destroys them and many around them.

Anne Brontes The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a powerful and controversial novel that shines a light on the issues of alcoholism, womens rights, and the oppressive nature of marriage in Victorian society. The book is written in a unique epistolary format, providing readers with a firsthand account of the protagonists experiences. Brontes vivid descriptions and engaging narrative style make this novel a compelling read that continues to resonate with readers today. The literary context of the novel places it alongside other works of Victorian literature that challenged societal norms and conventions. With its complex characters and thought-provoking themes, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall remains a timeless classic in the world of English literature. Anne Bronte, the youngest Bronte sister, drew upon her own observations and experiences to create this groundbreaking novel. As a governess, Anne had firsthand knowledge of the struggles faced by women of her time, which is reflected in the novels depiction of the protagonists fight for independence and self-determination. Annes bold and courageous storytelling sets her apart as a writer unafraid to address difficult and controversial topics. I highly recommend The Tenant of Wildfell Hall to readers who enjoy thought-provoking literature that delves into complex social issues. Anne Brontes masterful storytelling and insightful exploration of gender dynamics make this novel a must-read for anyone interested in Victorian literature or feminist literature.In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience:- A succinct Introduction situates the works timeless appeal and themes.- The Synopsis outlines the central plot, highlighting key developments without spoiling critical twists.- A detailed Historical Context immerses you in the eras events and influences that shaped the writing.- An Author Biography reveals milestones in the authors life, illuminating the personal insights behind the text.- A thorough Analysis dissects symbols, motifs, and character arcs to unearth underlying meanings.- Reflection questions prompt you to engage personally with the works messages, connecting them to modern life.- Handpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance.- Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.

Atef Abu Saif Gazan jaio zen, baina 2019an, Palestinako Aginte Nazionalak Kultura ministro izendatu zuenean, Zisjordaniara aldatu zen. 2023ko urriaren 7an, baina, atzera berriz Gazan zegoen. Bere karguarekin lotutako hainbat konpromiso zituen, eta pentsatu zuen konpromiso haiek eta senideak bisitatzea uztargarriak izan zitezkeela. Horregatik berekin eraman zuen Yasser, hamabost urteko semea. Egun hartan, infernuko ateak parez pare ireki ziren Gazan. Israelgo armadaren inbasioaren lehenengo momentutik kale gorrian, aita-semeak hara eta hona ibili behar izan zuten iheska, gainerako gazatarrek bezala, aterpe bila baino gehiago Gazan aterperik ez dago-eta herioari iskin egiten. Horrela, 85 egun, harik eta handik nola edo hala atera ahal izan zuten arte. Egun haietan, ikusitakoari eta oroz gain bizitakoari buruzko kronikak idatzi eta Gazatik mundura bidali zituen Abu Saifek, ahal bezala, adibidez, sakelakoaren mezu laburren bitartez. Gertatuaren lekukotasun aparta ematen duten kronika horiek, biltuta, GAZAKO EGUNEROKOA osatzen dute. Gazakoa sarraski telebisatua da, bai, baina lan honek berriz ere agerian uzten du ez dela guztiz egia irudi batek hamaika hitzek baino gehiago balio duenik.
