Two books for Sant Jordi,
Yes folks. Again we find the annual event. More than Sant Jordi, Book Day, to make it more international and that we all fit. And like a good blog is proudly books, needs to recommend (in this case a pair of) books.
The first is a classic that I'm rereading in these days of anti-Europeanism and xenophobia. Indeed, this is one of the most European writers who have existed: Stendhal (Henri Beyle or). The creator of the historical novel well understood. The bard of love as well you can read in Red and black . A text but its emotional chiaroscuro leaves the reader breathless. How to enjoy Stendhal of events taking place in the Arab world. Him if he was a man of commitment. They did not want books that distill life? For this, my first recommendation, it does so.
The second is more special. Take me some time ago was pleasantly surprised to find an old classmate published institute: Pablo Sánchez. In 2005 he won the Language of Cloth Black Box Novel by . Last year was the first Casavella Francisco Prize, awarded Destination with Rent world. I bought the book and liked it. Not just because he dares to put points on the ies regarding the prevailing neoliberalism as Vicente Luis Mora said in a superb post updates us on what is happening. Also by the use of economic and business formats to concoct the text. And so on. This is my second recommendation. Or that it is to vindicate the battered public school where we both agree.
And with that, i am just wish you a Happy World Book Day.
Carlos Gámez.
