Story
Pese a que sus padres están convencidos de que Valentino se convertirá en un gran hombre, sus hermanas creen que no es más que un joven vanidoso, egoísta y frívolo, más preocupado por sus conquistas que por sus estudios de medicina. El repentino compromiso de Valentino con una mujer rica pero poco agraciada y diez años mayor acabará con los sueños de sus padres, quienes, escandalizados ante tan desafortunada elección, sospechan de la novia.

Story
En Memoria de chica, Annie Ernaux se sumerge en el verano de 1958, el de su primera noche con un hombre, en la colonia de S, en el Orne. Una noche que le iba a le dejar una marca indeleble, que iba a perseguirla durante años. Hasta la valiente decisión de reconstruirla escribiéndola, ayudada por fotografías y cartas recuperadas, sumida en una búsqueda: la de sus antiguos amigos y amigas, la de Él, ese primer hombre, pero sobre todo la de sí misma, aquella Annie que tanto le cuesta entender a la Annie actual, en un vaivén implacable entre el ayer y el hoy.

Story
Un hombre conduce sin un rumbo en mente, hasta que su coche queda atascado al final de una pista forestal. Es una tarde de finales de otoño, ya casi no hay luz y comienza a nevar. En lugar de volver caminando hacia atrás en busca de ayuda o quedarse en el coche, de forma imprudente y sin saber muy bien por qué, el hombre decide adentrarse en el bosque. Inevitablemente, se pierde, y la noche sigue avanzando. Cuando el agotamiento y el frío empiezan a vencerlo, vislumbra un extraño resplandor en medio de la oscuridad.

Esta es la historia de Hans Castorp, un joven y modesto ingeniero que llega a un sanatorio ubicado en los Alpes suizos para visitar a su primo. La estancia que preveía corta se dilata en el tiempo y acaba formando parte de esta nueva forma de vida en la que se relativiza el transcurso del tiempo. Sentado en el balcón del sanatorio y envuelto en una manta, Hans reflexiona acerca de la vida, la muerte y el amor. El resultado es una de las grandes obras maestras de la literatura universal.

Publisher's summary
«Ya no volveré a oír su voz... Perdí el último nexo con el mundo del que salí.»
Annie Ernaux se esfuerza aquí por reencontrar los diferentes rostros y la vida de su madre, muerta el 7 de abril de 1986, al término de una enfermedad que había destruido su memoria y su integridad intelectual y física. Ella, tan activa, tan abierta al mundo. Búsqueda de la existencia de una mujer, obrera, luego comerciante ansiosa por mantener su nuevo estatus y por aprender. Puesta al día, también, de la evolución y la ambivalencia de los sentimientos de una hija por su madre: amor, odio, ternura, culpabilidad, y, por último, apego visceral a la anciana disminuida.
«Ya no volveré a oír su voz... Perdí el último nexo con el mundo del que salí.»
Con este libro Annie ganó el Premio Gregor von Rezzori 2019.
«Como el resto de su narrativa, esta pieza, exquisita, terrible, no es ni autoficción ni novela; es una escritura que hace del yo literario un personaje colectivo: alguien que con sus palabras dice también nuestras verdades.» Begoña Méndez, El Cultural
«La característica principal de los textos de esta brillante escritora radica en que, con una violencia expresiva casi imperceptible, natural, nos fuerza a trascender el estilo para expulsarnos hacia la realidad y hacernos pensar en la vida. La depuración y la sabiduría en cada una de sus elecciones estilísticas aprieta en el foco exacto de un dolor, íntimo y personal, que, sin embargo, es común: hablar de la degradación de la madre es hablar de la proximidad de nuestra propia degradación.» Marta Sanz, Babelia

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.
