Description: Una novela cautivante y audaz del autor de El Alquimista, bestseller con un millón de ejemplares vendidos. En este nuevo relato, el novelista explora con gran sensibilidad la naturaleza sagrada del sexo y del amor y nos invita a enfrentar a nuestros propio prejuicios y demonios. Once Minutos relata la historia de María, una joven proveniente de una villa brasileña, cuyos primeros roces inocentes con el amor la dejan con el corazón destrozado. A su tierna edad, se convence de que jamás hallará el amor verdadero; al contrario, considera que "El amor es algo horrible que produce sufrimiento." Un encuentro casual en Río la lleva a Ginebra, donde sueña con conseguir fama y fortuna. Sin embargo, termina trabajando de prostitua. En Ginebra, la opinión desesperanzada que María tieme del amor, se pone a prueba al conocer a un apuesto joven pintor. En esta odisea de descubrimiento personal, María debe elegir entre recorrer el camino de la oscuridad, el del sexo por el sexo mismo o arriesgarlo todo para descubrir su propia "luz interior" y las posibilidad del sexo sagrado, es decir, del sexo en el contexto del amor.

Description: Look ma, no textbooks! The Learn in Your Car series treats you like a child--in the best possible way--starting with one-word phrases ("please," "good-by"), counting exercises, and simple nouns ("bus," "train") designed to imitate a child's learning process. First you hear the words in English, then they are repeated slowly in clear, unaccented pronunciations. The method is extremely effective for those who don't know a thing, or for those who want to brush up by testing themselves when the English words are spoken. The tapes emphasize the building blocks of communicating in a foreign country rather than rote phrases that only apply on the tape and not in real-life exchanges. Level 1 painlessly covers basic verb forms, essential prepositions, near future and past tenses, as well as shopping, hotel reservations, and other travel-related situations. The series includes French, German, Italian, Russian, Japanese, and Spanish in three levels that can be purchased individually or in boxed sets. Each level contains two 90-minute cassettes (or CDs) and an accompanying booklet (not for use behind the wheel) with helpful explanations and scripts for the lessons.

Description: Escrito como una serie de cartas a sus hijos, Jorge Ramos—el periodista, viajero incansable, ganador del premio Emmy y autor bestseller—nos presenta el que es, sin duda, su libro más personal e íntimo. Hay cosas que todo padre siempre quiere decirles a sus hijos. Sobre el amor. Sobre la muerte. Sobre lo que es realmente importante en la vida. Sobre el sexo. Sobre dios y la religión. Sobre sus abuelos y sus raíces. Sobre vivir en un país extranjero. Sobre cómo salir adelante. Y Jorge Ramos no se quedó con las ganas. En El Regalo del Tiempo nos recuerda que no hay que estar a punto de morirse para decirle a nuestros hijos todo lo que los queremos y enseñarles las lecciones que, esperamos, les permitan llevar una vida más plena, honesta y—¿por qué no?—alegre. Jorge comparte en este libro lo que nunca antes se había atrevido, siquiera, a sugerir en público. El Regalo del Tiempo es una mirada íntima y conmovedora del mundo en que vivimos y del rol que debe cumplir un padre. A través de su experiencia como testigo de muchos de los horrores y alegrías del mundo, Ramos le ofrece a sus hijos consejos sólidos que necesitan no solo para vivir, sino también para sobrevivir en el turbulento mundo de hoy. Sus sugerencias son universales. Este libro es de todos los tiempos y está cargado de emoción y de lecciones que sus hijos y sus lectores podrán llevar consigo para siempre. Aquí conocemos no solo la filosofía, los valores y las convicciones del conductor de televisión sino también al hermano, al hijo y, sobre todo, al padre que quiere contarles a sus hijos todas las cosas que ha aprendido en la vida. "Al final de cuentas," concluye el padre-escritor, "lo único que tenemos para regalarle a nuestros hijos es tiempo... nuestro tiempo."

Description: "When I read these notes for the first time, I was quite young myself and I immediately identified with this man who narrated his adventures in such a spontaneous manner . . . "There were moments when I literally took over Granado's place on the motorbike and clung to my dad's back, journeying with him over the mountains and around the lakes . . . "To tell you the truth, the more I read, the more I was in love with the boy my father had been . . ."- from Aleida Guevara's preface "A journey, a number of journeys. Ernesto Guevara in search of adventure, Ernesto Guevara in search of America, Ernesto Guevara in search of Che. On this journey of journeys, solitude found solidarity, 'I' turned into 'we'."-Eduardo Galeano

Description: Crime and punishment, passion and loyalty, betrayal and redemption are only a few of the ingredients in Shantaram, a massive, over-the-top, mostly autobiographical novel. Shantaram is the name given Mr. Lindsay, or Linbaba, the larger-than-life hero. It means "man of God's peace," which is what the Indian people know of Lin. What they do not know is that prior to his arrival in Bombay he escaped from an Australian prison where he had begun serving a 19-year sentence. He served two years and leaped over the wall. He was imprisoned for a string of armed robberies peformed to support his heroin addiction, which started when his marriage fell apart and he lost custody of his daughter. All of that is enough for several lifetimes, but for Greg Roberts, that's only the beginning. He arrives in Bombay with little money, an assumed name, false papers, an untellable past, and no plans for the future. Fortunately, he meets Prabaker right away, a sweet, smiling man who is a street guide. He takes to Lin immediately, eventually introducing him to his home village, where they end up living for six months. When they return to Bombay, they take up residence in a sprawling illegal slum of 25,000 people and Linbaba becomes the resident "doctor." With a prison knowledge of first aid and whatever medicines he can cadge from doing trades with the local Mafia, he sets up a practice and is regarded as heaven-sent by these poor people who have nothing but illness, rat bites, dysentery, and anemia. He also meets Karla, an enigmatic Swiss-American woman, with whom he falls in love. Theirs is a complicated relationship, and Karla’s connections are murky from the outset. Roberts is not reluctant to wax poetic; in fact, some of his prose is downright embarrassing. Throughought the novel, however, all 944 pages of it, every single sentence rings true. He is a tough guy with a tender heart, one capable of what is judged criminal behavior, but a basically decent, intelligent man who would never intentionally hurt anyone, especially anyone he knew. He is a magnet for trouble, a soldier of fortune, a picaresque hero: the rascal who lives by his wits in a corrupt society. His story is irresistible. Stay tuned for the prequel and the sequel. --Valerie Ryan
