Then, while shining shoes at King's Cross Station, Alfie unexpectedly sees his father's name -- on a sheaf of papers belonging to a military doctor.

A moving portrait of Africa from Poland's most celebrated foreign correspondent - a masterpiece from a modern master. Famous for being in the wrong places at just the right times, Ryszard Kapuscinski arrived in Africa in 1957, at the beginning of the end of colonial rule - the "sometimes dramatic and painful, sometimes enjoyable and jubilant" rebirth of a continent. The Shadow of the Sun sums up the author's experiences ("the record of a 40-year marriage") in this place that became the central obsession of his remarkable career. From the hopeful years of independence through the bloody disintegration of places like Nigeria, Rwanda and Angola, Kapuscinski recounts great social and political changes through the prism of the ordinary African. He examines the rough-and-ready physical world and identifies the true geography of Africa: a little-understood spiritual universe, an African way of being. He looks also at Africa in the wake of two epoch-making changes: the arrival of AIDS and the definitive departure of the white man. Kapuscinski's rare humanity invests his subjects with a grandeur and a dignity unmatched by any other writer on the Third World, and his unique ability to discern the universal in the particular has never been more powerfully displayed than in this work.

Genre: Fiction
ISBN: 1936932067

Surreal and gothic, The Iliac Crest is a masterful excavation of forgotten Mexican women writers, illustrating the myriad ways that gendered language can wield destructive power. On a dark and stormy night, two mysterious women invade an unnamed narrator’s house, where they proceed to ruthlessly question their host’s identity. The women are strangely intimate―even inventing together an incomprehensible, fluid language―and harass the narrator by repeatedly claiming that they know his greatest secret: that he is, in fact, a woman. As the increasingly frantic protagonist fails to defend his supposed masculinity, he eventually finds himself in a sanatorium. Published for the first time in English, this Gothic tale is “utterly weird yet deeply resonant in its portrayal of gendered violence” (The Millions). Through layered and haunting prose, Cristina Rivera Garza unravels the cultural and political histories of Mexico, probing at the misogyny that fuels the disappearance of women in literature and in real life. "Astounding and thought-provoking." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “An intelligent, beautiful story about bodies disguised as a story about language disguised as a story about night terrors. Cristina Rivera Garza does not respect what is expected of a writer, of a novel, of language. She is an agitator.” —Yuri Herrera, author of Kingdom Cons

Miles de millones de seres humanos alrededor del mundo, han hablado de estar esperando la segunda venida de Cristo Jesus desde hace siglos y milenios. Para ello, han ideado diferentes conceptos de como el Espiritu Santo los pueda hailitar para poder estar preparados y aprobados para cuando dicho evento tome lugar. Muchos han ignorado dichos conceptos, otros los han aceptado. Por alguna razon desconocida para ellos, e inclusive para nosotros hoy; se ha pasado por alto el magno evento que precede a dicha segunda venida. Ese hecho es: Estar preparados para el Inminente Cierre del Tiempo de Gracia! Si fue aprobado antes de dicho cierre, la segunda venida sera para usted, una maravillosa experiencia. Por eso, el mismo Dios en su misericordia a punto de ser retirada, al ver a la humanidad cristiana y a la no cristiana de hoy, errando el camino y hundida en tanta confusion al respecto; ha querido brindar un mapa unico, con puntos claves y con bases simples, solidas y precisas a traves de este libro. Mapa que nos abrira los ojos a una realidad sorprendente en la cual quieras o no, te veras envuelto. Junto al Espiritu Santo;esta sierva desea compartir ese hallazgo con usted, mi querido lector. Porque no queremos que el tiempo de gracia termine y pierda la vida eterna con Jesus, por seguir en la ignorancia. El Gobierno Celestial (Dios), quiere orientarlos correctamente. El diablo quiere confundirlos mediante tantos sistemas y filosofias religiosas. Ante estos dos Poderes, Solo Usted Tiene la Decision Final! Por favor, no ignore las advertencias que con tanto amor y por ultima vez Cristo Jesus les envia a traves de las paginas de este libro.
