Un libro que te lleva de la soledad, decepción e indiferencia, al deseo de encontrarse a sí mismo, volver a las raíces e invita a aventurarse y navegar por un mar de experiencias nuevas. Donde se puede experimentar encuentros desafi antes que envuelven en un suspenso muy bien manejado, a fi n de llegar a buen "Puerto", ese lugar en donde nos sentimos por fi n... nosotros mismos. Nicole, autora cubana, radicada en California, Estados Unidos, comenta que cuando llegó a Mazatlán, respiró nostalgia, raíces, sabores y colores los cuales le inspiraron a dar vida a los personajes mostrando el carácter divertido, ocurrente y temperamental de los "patasaladas" mazatlecos; características que igual nos unen a todos los latinos. La forma en que nos narra y describe la cultura y belleza de Mazatlán, Sinaloa, México; con toques de glamour y algarabía, esa que envuelve al protagonista Leonardo en una sublime historia de amor con una hermosa mujer lugareña; nos invita no solamente a amar, sino a conocer esta hermosa ciudad y sus rincones. Nicole Leónides Ferrán, autora también del libro de auto ayuda "Somos Amor" el cual ya se hace presente en Estados Unidos, México, Sudamérica y Europa.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“A Jewish man flees 1938 Germany only to find a new and unexpected nightmare” in Guatemala, in this tale of dark humor and desperate suspense (Publishers Weekly). In 1938, as Samuel Berkow’s tramp steamer from Germany approaches Puerto Barrios, Guatemala, he is full of hope that he will be able to find a family member and begin to remake his life in the new world. But in this sweltering, chaotic, and hostile port town, he will have to face down many obstacles—including himself—before he can hope to truly escape . . . “Unger’s sharp prose deftly conveys Samuel’s frustrations and confusions as he encounters characters like a troublesome dwarf, a volatile American fruit company manager, a crazed ex-priest, and a friendly telegraph operator who all offer help with one hand but uncertainty with the other.” —Publishers Weekly “Evoking both Kafka and Conrad, Unger’s character study of a broken man in a culture broken by a ravenous corporation makes compelling reading.” —Booklist “Unger’s tale utterly seduces with its mix of the exotic and the familiar.” —Toronto Star

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWritten while in exile in the United States, Time and Space were originally intended to appear together in a single volume. Not until 1986, however, did they appear so in Spanish and not until 1988 were they published together in English. By presenting them together, Jimnez had wanted them to convey the same continuity of emotion, the same philosophical intensity, that he had experienced while writing them. All My Life, he wrote in his introduction, I have toyed with the idea of writing a continuous poem...with no concrete theme, sustained only by its own surprise, its rhythm, its discoveries, its light, its successive joys; that is, its intrinsic elements, its essence. That continuous poem is Time and Space the last book Jimnez wrote. Presented here in a bilingual edition, Time and Space will take readers of both English and Spanish on the longest and most sustained ride on the crest of poetry they will ever enjoy. The greatest poem in this Century... Octavio Paz Antonio T. de Nicols, translator and editor of Time and Space is also widely known for his highly acclaimed translation of the Juan Ramn Jimnez classic, Platero and I, as well as many other works in Spanish. His first book of poetry, Remembering the God to Come, is also being published by iUniverse.com.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK&¿ Llevas una vida espiritual saludable? &¿ Qué implica superar las pruebas y tribulaciones de la vida cristiana? &¿ Con qué criterio hemos de medir nuestra rectitud?Estas son solo algunas de las t&í picas preguntas que plantean hoy los libros m&á s populares de ayuda espiritual y vida cristiana. Son preguntas que a menudo conducen a respuestas deficientes que solo causan mayor incertidumbre en los lectores respecto a la fe que se les concede por medio de Cristo crucificado.El Dr. Steven Hein les da un giro a estas preguntas, y ofrece una perspectiva radicalmente distinta sobre c&ó mo es la verdadera vida cristiana. En contra de la opini&ó n popular, el cristianismo no se trata del é xito o los logros, ni deber&í a enfocarse en el Cristo resucitado glorificado. Antes bien, el cristianismo siempre ha estado centrado primordialmente en aquella antigua y cruenta cruz, donde Cristo fue crucificado por ti en su plena humanidad y plena divinidad.

This gives students the opportunity to master the basic concepts well and to feel successful doing so.
