Mauritania
Mauritania
Description:
Está encerrado, su vida corre peligro. Y piensa, narra. Narra sus pensamientos, sus miedos, sus tímidos deseos. Sus recuerdos, sus ideas, sus opiniones.
Trata de mantener la esperanza, de no flaquear; no es un hombre valiente, ni tampoco un hombre virtuoso, salvo con las palabras. Y espera.

Ética marica : proclamas libertarias para una militancia LGTBQ by Francisco Javier Vidarte ES
SpainDescription:
Esto no es un libro. Es un interruptor. Un dispositivo que corta la corriente. Y que a la vez permite que algo se ponga en marcha, que algo se encienda. Al autor le gustaría que la lectura de este libro supusiera un 'clic', un chispazo que interrumpiera una cadencia de mierda, una bajada de tensión en el movimiento LGTBQ que debe terminar cuanto antes. Y que se encendiera otra forma de hacer las cosas y de comportarnos como maricas, lesbianas y trans frente a la sociedad y las propias tendencias involucionistas. Si esto no pasa, continúa el autor, este libro no h... continue

IsraelDescription:
All ten books of Eusebius' famous church history are presented here complete in a superb and authoritative translation. Eusebius' Ecclesiastical History is one of the first comprehensive, chronologically arranged histories ever written about the Christian church, and it is consulted by scholars and historians to this day.

Every Man Dies Alone by Hans Fallada EN
Description:
"Based on a true story, this sweeping saga tells the tale of a working class couple in Berlin who decide to take a stand against the Nazis. More than an edge-of-your-seat thriller, more than a moving romance, even more than literature of the highest order, it's a deeply moving story of two people who stand up for what's right, and for each other. Hans Fallada wrote Every Man Dies Alone in a feverish twenty-four days, soon after the end of World War II and his release from a Nazi insane asylum. He did not live to see his its publication"--Page 4 of cover.
