«El comandante Amberson había hecho una fortuna en 1873, cuando otra gente estaba perdiendo la suya, y ahí empezó la magnificencia de los Amberson». Así empieza Los magníficos Amberson, la obra maestra y segunda entrega de su aclamada trilogía Growth, que ha sido llevada al cine y a la televisión en numerosas ocasiones. La familia Amberson es la más poderosas y rica del lugar y el joven George Amberson Minafer, nieto del patriarca, es terriblemente consentido por su madre Isabel. Arrogante hasta la indecencia, seguro de su posición y valor y totalmente ignorante de los sentimientos de los demás, George se enamora en un baile de Lucy Morgan, una joven hermosa, pero también sensible e inteligente. A medida que el pueblo se convierte en una ciudad industrial, la riqueza de los Amberson mengua y crece la de los Morgan gracias al ingenio del padre de Lucy, George se enterará inevitablemente de la vieja historia de amor entre su madre y el padre de ella. Para salvar el buen nombre de su familia George decide interponerse entre ellos. Su ataque a Morgan significará renunciar a Lucy para siempre y, lo que es aún peor, la destrucción de su mundo. La historia tiene lugar en un ficticio Indianapolis y describe el crecimiento de los Estados Unidos a través del ascenso y declive de la familia Amberson durante tres generaciones, entre el final de la Guerra Civil y la primera parte del siglo XX, un período de industrialización creciente que produjo numerosos cambios en la sociedad y economía americana. El declive de los Ambersons contrasta con las nuevas fortunas de los grandes industriales y otras familias acaudaladas, cuyo poder no surge de su apellido sino de su actividad.

Alrededor del volcán Popocatépetl, los tiemperos, cuidadores del temporal o graniceros incursionan cada noche al mundo onírico para comunicarse con el volcán manteniéndolo contento, propiciando la lluvia y apaciguando el granizo que daña sus cosechas. Para los graniceros, la comunicación con el volcán es de vital importancia, sosteniendo una relación casi personal con él, considerándolo un ser vivo consciente con el cual comulgan día a día. A través de las narraciones de los sueños de Don Epifanio, el lector se adentrará en el inconsciente colectivo que permea el universo de los graniceros, en donde se manifiestan simbolísmos sincréticos a través de sus sueños arquetípicos que ayudan a comprender mejor la fusión espiritual que aun se aprecia en México.

This is the true story of eight children who started off in a normal family but had an abusive father. Eventually, constant marital fights and the father’s aggressiveness led to divorce, leaving the children to figure out how to survive on their own, with only a mother suffering from mental health issues left to look out for them. Over a five-year period each child experienced profound neglect, lack of supervision, and the breakdown of the family unit, forcing them to make choices they never would have made otherwise. But by the grace of God, and through the help of ordinary people along the way, they not only survived but developed a relationship with Christ. He transformed their lives and helped them achieve above and beyond anything they could have imagined. God has a plan for each of us, but it’s up to us to choose the right path and seek Him in the midst of our trials.
