Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Lola Alvarez Bravo

Lola Alvarez Bravo was Mexico's first woman photographer, and her career is exceptional both for its remarkable range and for the compelling quality of her work. Approaching photography from multiple angles, she worked as a photojournalist, commercial photographer, and professional portraitist, while also creating intensely personal images of people, places, and things throughout her native Mexico. In addition, she played a vital role in the Mexican cultural scene, as an inspiring teacher of photography, as friend of innumerable artists and writers (many of whom she photographed), and as owner of a prestigious gallery that presented the first solo show by her friend Frida Kahlo, the subject of some of Alvarez Bravo's most powerful portraits. This is the first English-language book on Lola Alvarez Bravo to encompass the full range of her work, including some images never before published and several of her little-known photomontages. Elizabeth Ferrer's insightful text - based on far-ranging research, including interviews with the artist and her friends - captures the unique spirit of both the photographer and her extraordinary photographs.

Libro El Club de Los Mentirosos

The Texas refinery town of Leechfield, perched on the swampy rim of the Gulf, is famous for mosquitoes and the manufacture of Agent Orange - a place where the only bookstores are religious ones and the restaurants serve only fried food. A handful of the Leechfield oil workers gather regularly at the American Legion Bar to drink salted beer and spin long, improbable tales. They're the Liars' Club. And to the girl whose father is the club's undisputed champion mythmaker, they exude a fatal glamour - one that lifts her from ordinary life. But there are other lies. Darker, more hidden. Her...

Memorias elefantásticas

Libro Memorias elefantásticas

Nos encontramos ante un sabroso libro automemorial. El autor describe con delicadeza paisajes del alma y del mundo, a través de pintorescos viajes y entretenidas anécdotas que en algunos casos rayan en lo insólito. A ello agrega situaciones reminiscentes y pensamientos al pasar, de corte político, filosófico, o del diario y accidentado vivir. También nos traslada a ciertas añoranzas del Santiago antiguo, del campo, de las sensaciones infantiles, de las que vinieron después... a los primeros embates del amor y la ensoñación. Un compendio de experiencias de la vida de Francisco, las...

Pío de Pietrelcina

Libro Pío de Pietrelcina

Pío de Pietrelcina (1887-1968), capuchino italiano que vivió gran parte de su vida en el convento de San Giovanni Rotondo (Foggia), es un personaje extraordinario, aunque también controvertido y atacado por sus detractores. Considerado un místico, su misteriosa enfermedad, los estigmas que recibió y que le acompañaron durante cincuenta años, la obediencia que profesó a sus superiores, su carisma como confesor, su celo apostólico y caritativo, que le llevaron a la fundación de una magna obra que hoy perdura y sigue floreciendo, han hecho de él el profeta del siglo, un hombre, como...
