Tres veces luz by Juan Mattio ES
Country: South America / 
Argentina
Argentina
Description:
La historia terrible que apuesta a contar Mattio arranca clásicamente con una muerte en uno de los 20 puertos de la provincia de Santa Fe, lo que da pie a la intervención de una tan brillante como amargada fiscal investigadora, impecablemente dibujada. Lejos de apostar al misterio y a la solución de una intriga, la novela juega a la simultaneidad, construyendo contexto al tiempo que se avanza el esclarecimiento. No hay sorpresa sino impacto constante en esa reconstrucción del trayecto infernal de unos polizones en la bodega del buque de carga Propp, que une Costa de... continue

Barbados
Barbados
Description:
Finally available after three decades, a lost classic of the Harlem Renaissance that Langston Hughes acclaimed for its “hard poetic beauty.” Eric Walrond (1898–1966), in his only book, injected a profound Caribbean sensibility into black literature. His work was closest to that of Jean Toomer and Zora Neale Hurston with its striking use of dialect and its insights into the daily lives of the people around him. Growing up in British Guiana, Barbados, and Panama, Walrond first published Tropic Death to great acclaim in 1926. This book of stories viscerally charts the days of men working stone qu... continue
