Sinopsis del Libro

Frank Sinatra! Marilyn Monroe! Never before teamed in a book, yet theirs was a seven-year friendship and on-and-off intimate relationship shrouded in secrecy and fraught with danger. Frank Sinatra and Marilyn Monroe—here is the first book to bring these two all-American icons together. Their friendship and on-and-off intimate relationship, kept secret because of powerful others in their lives, spanned seven tumultuous years. At one point, he even proposed marriage. In Frank & Marilyn, we follow Sinatra and Monroe from one explosive relationship to another, their marriages and love affairs eventually leading to a tangled relationship with each other, sparking a nasty rivalry between Frank and Marilyn’s ex-husband (and one-time friend of Frank), Joe DiMaggio. Frank and Marilyn’s ultimately disastrous relationship with John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert, and their often ruthless family was a fatal move for Marilyn. Her death remains a controversial topic to the present day. Dedicated biographer and entertainment world insider Edward Z. Epstein has spoken with many people who were familiar with the pair, all of whom talked about the Frank and Marilyn they knew—and the dangers they faced. It’s a fascinating, largely untold story that’s usually glossed over…until now.

Tres años de esclavitud entre los Patagones

"Three years of captivity among the Patagones" is an exceptional ethnological document, but to its documentary value it adds the attraction and intensity of an adventures novel. It narrates the extraordinary experience of Auguste Guinnard, a young French immigrant who, around 1850, gets lost in the Pampas and is captured by native tribes who considered every foreigner a foe. Bound to a cruel slavery among the last nomads of Patagonia, Guinnard, was forced to sleep in the ground, and survive naked feeding from raw meat and fresh blood. In spite of being despised, and often chastised even by...

Los Rolling Stones

Si el blues es la madre de casi todas las canciones que suenan por la radio, los Stones son, hoy por hoy el padre, de todos esos artistas; un grupo de música que lleva presente directa o indirectamente en la vida de medio mundo. Historia, discografía y sus referentes blues, son precisamente los tres pilares que reciben la carga de esta guía con el fin de transmitirla al terreno de la comprensión: una puerta de entrada a los Stones en agradecimiento al grupo que, sin pretenderlo, cambió por completo la música del siglo xx. Son sin duda un referente ineludible de la cultura popular.

La Vida de Lazarillo de Tormes Y de Sus Fortunas Y Adversidades

First published in 1554, Lazarillo de Tormes was destined to beget a whole new genre, the so-called picaresque novel. Its great popularity may be attributed largely to its daring autobiographical form, which allows the reader to observe the magnificent, conquering Spain of Charles the Fifth through the inner consciousness of a humble figure called Lazarus, whose name, perhaps, comes from the poor leper mentioned in the Gospels. The Lazarillo is the first literary expression of a feeling basic to the very existence of the Spanish people, especially since the fifteenth century: they were what...

Lady Di

Diana Frances Spencer, “Lady Di”, tuvo una breve y apasionante historia que este libro evoca en su esencia. Su trágica muerte, a los 36 años y en circunstancias dudosas, elevó a la categoría de mito a esta mujer que vivió a medias y que tuvo el coraje de desafiar los anquilosados hábitos y las hipocresías de la Corona británica.
