Desde el momento en que Peter tuvo conciencia del sentido de su existencia (5 años de edad), sintió la energía única del Caribe, la magia de Cuba que moldeó su destino sin igual. Peter, un niño con genio artístico y una sensibilidad extraordinaria, es víctima de abuso físico; al saber esto de manera accidental, su abuela y confidente, acude a la santería como un recurso para liberarlo de dicho trauma y esta experiencia trae consigo predicciones que llenan esta historia de esoterismo al estilo Caribe, en la lucha de Peter por superar las debilidades del ego y su encuentro con ley de atracción. Al ser víctima del gobierno castrista, la madre de Peter decide inmigrar a Nueva York y, a pesar del increíble desafío de empezar una nueva vida en un país foráneo y con recursos, dramáticamente, limitados, la cadena de personajes que Peter conoce en el trayecto de su vida es sin igual: Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Liza Minelli, Oscar de la Renta, Mia Farrow, Truman Capote, Vidal Sassoon, Jaqueline Kennedy, Diana Ross, Whitney Houston y muchos más. Esta historia cuenta con la influencia esotérica de la cultura cubana, por medio de las predicciones de Isabel, la bruja santera, (entre ellas develar a los asesinos de Kennedy y Marilyn Monroe), y a la vez, varios enfoques como el de Neale Donald, “Conversations with God”, Abraham Hicks, “Ask and it is given”, Facundo Cabral “Este es un nuevo día”.

For public and school libraries, this resource reflects recent changes in Library of Congress subject headings and authority files, and provides bilingual information essential to reference librarians and catalogers serving Spanish speakers. Libraries must provide better access to their collections for all users, including Spanish-language materials. The American Library Association has recognized this increasing need. Subject Headings for School and Public Libraries: Bilingual Fourth Edition is the only resource available that provides both authorized and reference entries in English and Spanish. A first-check source for the most frequently used headings needed in school and public libraries, this book incorporates thousands of new and revised entries to assist in applying LCSH and CSH headings. Of the approximately 30,000 headings listed, most include cross-references, and all of the cross-reference terms are translated. MARC21 tags are included for all authorized entries to simplify entering them into computerized catalogs, while indexes to all headings and free-floating subdivisions are provided in translation from Spanish to English. This book gives librarians access to accurate translations of the subject terms printed in books published and cataloged in English-speaking countries—invaluable information in settings with Spanish-speaking patrons.

A mesmerizing debut novel for fans of Madeline Miller's Circe. Ariadne, Princess of Crete, grows up greeting the dawn from her beautiful dancing floor and listening to her nursemaid’s stories of gods and heroes. But beneath her golden palace echo the ever-present hoofbeats of her brother, the Minotaur, a monster who demands blood sacrifice. When Theseus, Prince of Athens, arrives to vanquish the beast, Ariadne sees in his green eyes not a threat but an escape. Defying the gods, betraying her family and country, and risking everything for love, Ariadne helps Theseus kill the Minotaur. But will Ariadne’s decision ensure her happy ending? And what of Phaedra, the beloved younger sister she leaves behind? Hypnotic, propulsive, and utterly transporting, Jennifer Saint's Ariadne forges a new epic, one that puts the forgotten women of Greek mythology back at the heart of the story, as they strive for a better world.
