Story4.5 out of 5 stars 74
Junio de 1960. Un temporal mantiene aisladas en la idílica isla de Utakos, frente a Corfú, a nueve personas alojadas en el pequeño hotel local. Nada hace presagiar lo que está a punto de ocurrir: Edith Mander, una discreta turista inglesa, aparece muerta en el pabellón de la playa. Lo que parece un suicidio revela indicios imperceptibles para cualquiera salvo para Hopalong Basil, un actor en decadencia que en otro tiempo encarnó en la pantalla al más célebre detective de todos los tiempos.

Cuando Eufrasia Vela empieza a trabajar como cuidadora de ancianos, no sospecha que su oficio la llevará a una encrucijada existencial. La íntima relación que mantiene con doña Carmen, el doctor Harrison y Los Siete Magníficos—entrañables personajes que se apoderan de su pensamiento y su cariño—la obliga a replantearse su papel de madre y hermana, las vicisitudes de la longevidad, las formas de la compasión y el sorpresivo valor que los cuyes, esos conejillos de Indias tan peculiares, adquieren en su presupuesto moral.

Publisher's summary
La nueva novela de uno de los autores colombianos más importantes de la actualidad
Entre ironías, burlas, improperios, maldiciones, blasfemias, este librito sin pretensiones hará reír a muchos e iluminará a montones. Trata modestamente de apresar el cambio frenético que se ha apoderado del mundo. Su autor vive en la Luna y desde allá dispara. Es un francotirador lunático que abre fuego contra el que sea: presidentes, papas, reguetoneros, raperos, médicos... Y con especial delectación contra las reverendas madres, perpetuadoras de la especie, su blanco predilecto. Apunta desde arriba el selenita contra sus soldaditos de plomo, dispara y van cayendo allá abajo unos tras otras. ¡Qué puntería! ¡Qué masacre!
"A un paso de que la humanidad desaparezca por el exceso de gente, el derretimiento de los polos, la crecida de los mares y la gran fiesta nuclear que viene, juzgo oportuno enrostrarle al hombre lo cruel y atropellador que ha sido con los animales y enterarlo de la dicha inmensa que me causa su castigo y próxima desaparición". Eso dice, eso anuncia, oigámosle.
Margarito Ledesma

Myrna, Leonie, and Chrissy meet every Thursday to sample fine cheeses, to reminisce about their former lives as professors, and lately, to muse about murder. Decades ago, a vicious cabal of male poets contrived—quite publicly and successfully—to undermine the writing career, confidence, and health of their dear friend Fern. Now, after Fern has taken a turn for the worse, her three old friends decide that it’s finally time to strike back—in secret, of course, since Fern is far too gentle to approve of a vendetta.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

“The Heron” is the nickname a big-city accountant has attached to himself in his new home near San Diego, where he’s using the alias to avoid a hit man who may be after him. It seems a former client believes that The Heron has skipped town with several million dollars not his own. Don Winslow’s ensuing, entertaining yarn is by turns twisty, dark, and comical as we observe the delicate dance between the pursuer and the pursued.
