En el sofocante microcosmos de Vetusta, la lucha entre el deseo prohibido y la represión social alcanza dimensiones de tragedia clásica. Ana Ozores camina por el filo de la navaja, acechada por la envidia de un pueblo que no perdona la belleza ni la insatisfaccion espiritual. La novela es una radiografia perfecta de la decadencia moral y el peso asfixiante de la tradicion religiosa en una ciudad que parece una jaula de oro. Un viaje psicologico denso y fascinante que define la cumbre del realismo literario en lengua española.

Una colección de cuentos que funciona como un espejo deformante de la vanidad y la hipocresía que rigen las interacciones sociales más banales.

Son narraciones breves que golpean con la precision de un escalpelo, mostrando que bajo las apariencias siempre palpitan las mismas miserias. Una lectura deliciosa y punzante que demuestra por que Clarin es un observador inigualable de la condicion humana.

Obra fundamental de la narrativa española, La Regenta constituye una novela de una modernidad deslumbrante y de lectura inagotable. Mediante la figura central de Ana Ozores y una antológica galería de personajes, Clarin plantea el conflicto que supone el intento de satisfacer las ansias y los anhelos personales en un contexto gris y represivo. Rica en hallazgos narrativos y afinados analisis psicologicos, La Regenta es tambien una ironica e implacable mirada del autor a la sociedad durmiente de su tiempo, representada en la provinciana ciudad de Vetusta, cuyos habitantes estan inmunizados contra los intereses espirituales.Esta la literatura oficial en apremiante deuda con Leopoldo Alas.

Imagina que...* Tomas el sol en una isla creada de manera artificial con espuma helada.* Colonizas una ciudad junto a Chernóbil que jamás llegó a ser habitada.* Pernoctas en un cementerio habitado (por vivos) en el norte de Manila.* Visitas un microestado fundado en una plataforma armamentistica en mitad del oceano.* Conoces al amor de tu vida en una campiña britanica, capital del sexo al aire libre.Alastair Bonnett escribe sobre 48 lugares fuera del mapa. Una oda a la peculiaridad de un lugar frente a un mundo globalizado. A lo inesperado en un planeta mapeado (y por tanto explicado) por las nuevas grandes corporaciones. A las fronteras difusas y las fantasias reales. A la idea de que ni el hombre actual lo sabe todo ni todo esta descubierto y conquistado. Al territorio como fabrica de nuestras vidas, donde construimos nuestra identidad y memoria.
