Voces de Juncos en el pantano es la historia contada por las mujeres de una familia, historias que no se dicen, que se han guardado en secreto como un intento de ayudar al tiempo y al olvido. Pero la memoria obliga a la confesión, la confesión obliga a contar historias y a cambiarle los nombres a nuestra verdad. La fi cción es otro matiz de la realidad. Esta novela captura mis sentidos, sorprende su prosa, el recorrido de los decorados de una vida de dolor y sufrimiento profundo, de grandes abandonos, incluso de tocar las fronteras delicadas de la locura. Camila, Lotis, Iris, son el ramillete de mujeres ligadas por la sangre de la familia Juncos, que aprenden a penetrar todos los obstáculos posibles para recrearnos esta historia de libertad y superación, de supervivencia. No es sólo enfrentar los muros, es penetrarlos, o en el mejor de los casos, volar sobre ellos. Tal aprendizaje lo da una vida llena de sueños, visiones que perseguir. Lotis amó y fue amada, y la vida en su ruta escabrosa, dictó que hay amores que deben esperar llegar al cielo. Una historia que sale de los rincones más pobres de la isla de Puerto Rico, viaja a la gran ciudad de Nueva York, donde en ambas el abuso, la traición, la vida subterránea sumergen al niño en inmensas violencias. Una historia que sólo puede entenderse con el toque de magia de los milagros. Voces de Juncos en el pantano debe ser leída por todo aquel que desee desenmascarar la realidad de la pobreza, niños y mujeres en su diaria lucha por ser libres para educarse, crecer, amar, y reir. Una historia demasiado humana.

Although today Luis Palés Matos is virtually unknown to most American readers, the eminent U.S. poet and writer William Carlos Williams once praised his younger contemporary as "one of the most important poets out of Latin America." Palés Matos was a native, and lifelong resident, of Puerto Rico. Though he was not black, he became one of the Caribbeans leading advocates of poesía negra (black poetry). His landmark 1937 collection Tuntún de Pasa y Grifería: Poesía Afro-Antillana (Tom-Tom of Kinky Hair and Black Things: Afro-Caribbean Poetry) joyously celebrated the African aspects and sources of Puerto Ricos culture and influenced later generations of writers throughout the Western hemisphere. Translator Julio Marzán has selected the best of Palés Matoss poems from throughout his career, among them "Prelude in Boricua," "Danza Negra," "Buccaneer Winds," and "Elegy on the Duke of Marmalade." He also provides a helpful glossary of obscure terms and an introduction that locates Palés Matos in the broader cultural context of his contemporaries and poetic influences including such North American poets as Walt Whitman, Edgar Allan Poe, and Vachel Lindsay.

John O'Donohue won hundreds of thousands of admirers with his now classic work on Celtic spirituality, Anam Cara. Just as To Bless the Space Between Us was being published, he died suddenly at the age of fifty-two. His powerfully wise and lyrical voice is profoundly missed, but his many readers are now given a special opportunity to revisit John in his first book, a collection of poetry. O'Donohue's readers know him as both a spiritual guide and a poet. In the same spirit as his bestselling works, readers will be inspired yet again by John's depth of wisdom and artistry.

RESUMEN: El diccionario de uso del español de María Moliner define falso amigo como "Palabra o expresión de una lengua extranjera que, por ser muy similar a otra de la lengua propia, puede ser interpretada incorrectamente".

Diccionario de consulta muy recomendable para periodistas, traductores y lingüistas.

This volume offers a new reading of the Spanish-American novela de la selva genre, often interpreted as a belated imitation of European travel literature. Arguing against the commonly held opinion of the genre’s derivative nature, Colonial Tropes and Postcolonial Tricks examines how novela de la selva fiction reimagined the tropics from a Latin American perspective and redefined tropical landscape aesthetics and ethnography through parodic rewritings of European perspectives. Analyzing four emblematic novels of the genre, this book considers the crucial place of the jungle as a locus for the contestation of national and literary identity by post-independence Latin American writers.

Ernest Dichter is famous as one of the founding fathers of motivational research. In applying the social sciences to a variety of problems, Dichter emphasized new approaches to problem solving, advertising, politics, and selling, and issues of social significance such as urban renewal, productivity, and drug addiction. As an author and corporate adviser, he used psychoanalytic theory and depth interviewing to uncover unconsciously held attitudes and beliefs. He goal was to help explain why people act the way they do and how positive behavioral change might be achieved. In The Strategy of Desire, Dichter both counters the argument that motivational research amounts to manipulation, and shows how the understanding and modification of human behavior is necessary for progress. Dichter's survey and analysis of behavior ranges widely. He examines everyday matters of product choice, as well as such broad civic issues as voter participation, religious toleration, and racial understanding. He shows that in order to achieve socially constructive goals, it is necessary to move beyond theological exhortation, which takes an unrealistic view of human morality, as well as beyond the limits of empirically oriented social science research, which only deals in appearances. Dichter sees human action as rooted in irrational and often unconscious motivation, which can usually be uncovered if the correct approach is used. In his consumer research, he analyzes the nonutilitarian importance of objects in everyday life, as well as how products and materials become bound with emotional resonance or acquire different meanings from different contexts or points of view. Dichter shows that success depends on the satisfaction of desires and a movement beyond the ethic of work and saving. Arguing that in an increasingly technological world, progress and social harmony are materially based, he advocates a morality of the good life in which prosperity and leisure lead to greater h
