Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Invernando

An intimate, revelatory book exploring the ways we can care for and repair ourselves when life knocks us down. Sometimes you slip through the cracks: unforeseen circumstances like an abrupt illness, the death of a loved one, a break up, or a job loss can derail a life. These periods of dislocation can be lonely and unexpected. For May, her husband fell ill, her son stopped attending school, and her own medical issues led her to leave a demanding job. Wintering explores how she not only endured this painful time, but embraced the singular opportunities it offered. A moving personal narrative shot through with lessons from literature, mythology, and the natural world, May's story offers instruction on the transformative power of rest and retreat. Illumination emerges from many sources: solstice celebrations and dormice hibernation, C.S. Lewis and Sylvia Plath, swimming in icy waters and sailing arctic seas. Ultimately Wintering invites us to change how we relate to our own fallow times. May models an active acceptance of sadness and finds nourishment in deep retreat, joy in the hushed beauty of winter, and encouragement in understanding life as cyclical, not linear. A secular mystic, May forms a guiding philosophy for transforming the hardships that arise before the ushering in of a new season.

La dificultad de ser

Libro La dificultad de ser

Cruzada la frontera de los cincuenta años, con la imagen de la muerte delante y con la guerra rozándole los talones, Jean Cocteau ha llegado a la conclusión de que «la comedia está ya muy avanzada». La dificultad de ser es el ajuste de cuentas que Cocteau hace consigo mismo, con el yo que fue en la época del esplendor social y con el yo que es en las angustias del presente. El autor de La sangre de un poeta escribe La dificultad de ser mientras rueda La bella y la bestia. Al ensalmo de esa joya del cine, el pasado emerge de un mar de sombras para acabar dando a luz un singular libro de ...

Libro A Woman's Place Is at the Top

Annie Smith Peck is one of the most accomplished women of the twentieth century that you have never heard of. Peck was a scholar, educator, writer, lecturer, mountain climber, suffragist, and political activist. She was a feminist and an independent thinker who refused to let gender stereotypes stand in her way. Peck gained fame in 1895 when she first climbed the Matterhorn at the age of forty-five – not for her daring alpine feat, but because she climbed wearing pants. Fifteen years later, she was the first climber ever to conquer Mount Huascarán (21,831 feet) in Peru. In 1911, just...
