Una novela cruda y desgarradora en la que el lector quedar envuelto, atrapado por las palabras y la atm sfera de terrible, aunque gozosa, fatalidad. Un grupo de ni os encuentra un cad ver flotando en las aguas turbias de un canal de riego cercano a la rancher a de La Matosa.

"Un viaje nocturno a las profundidades del alma humana con el estilo m s radical de su generaci n." -Mart n Solares "Fernanda Melchor no s lo escribe con la potencia rabiosa que le reclaman los temas que ha decidido investigar, sino que en cada p gina muestra un o do y una agudeza pocas veces vista en nuestra literatura." -Yuri Herrera ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONLONGLISTED FOR THE 2020 MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZEThe English-language debut of one of the most thrilling and accomplished young Mexican writers The Witch is dead. And the discovery of her corpse―by a group of children playing near the irrigation canals―propels the whole village into an investigation of how and why this murder occurred. Rumors and suspicions spread. As the novel unfolds in a dazzling linguistic torrent, with each unreliable narrator lingering on new details, new acts of depravity or brutality, Melchor extracts some tiny shred of humanity from these characters that most would write off as utterly irredeemable, forming a lasting portrait of a damned Mexican village. Like Roberto Bolano's 2666 or Faulkner's greatest novels, Hurricane Season takes place in a world filled with mythology and violence―real violence, the kind that seeps into the soil, poisoning everything around: it's a world that becomes more terrifying and more terrifyingly real the deeper you explore it.

Описание: "Arquitecto Tucci, a neighborhood in Buenos Aires, is a place where crushing poverty and violent crime are everyday realities. Homicides--often involving young people--continue to skyrocket, and in the emergency room there, victims of shootings or knifings are an all-too-common sight. In Harm`s Way takes a harrowing look at daily life in Arquitecto Tucci, examining the sources, uses, and forms of interpersonal violence among the urban poor at the very margins of Argentine society.Drawing on more than two years of immersive fieldwork, sociologist Javier Auyero and Maraia Berti, an elementary school teacher in the neighborhood, provide a powerful and disarmingly intimate account of what it is like to live under the constant threat of violence. They argue that being physically aggressive becomes a habitual way of acting in poor and marginalized communities, and that violence is routine and carries across various domains of public and private life. Auyero and Berti trace how different types of violence--be it criminal, drug related, sexual, or domestic--overlap, intersect, and blur together. They show how the state is complicit in the production of harm, and describe the routines and relationships that residents, particularly children, establish to cope with and respond to the constant risk that besieges them and their loved ones.Provocative, eye-opening, and extraordinarily moving, In Harm`s Way is destined to become a classic work on violence at the urban margins"--

Описание: Biodiesel is considered a viable alternative to the use of fossil fuel, as it is a renewable and biodegradable fuel, providing many environmental benefits. A Closer Look at Biodiesel Production describes new prospects of biodiesel production and updates the different researches on raw materials for the production of new sources of biofuels. The book contains thirteen chapters that are divided into five sections for a better understanding for the reader.The first section presents an extensive and profound review of the fundamentals of biodiesel production and the application of heterogeneous catalysts in this process. The second section assesses the influence of the raw material and provides insight into non-conventional raw materials that can be used for biodiesel production, such as Macroinvetebrate Larvae and Wastewater Treatment Plant Sludge. The third section aims to present an extended discussion on biodiesel production from microalgae to feedstock. The third section shows the importance of the implementation of a biorefinery, using all microalgae products to make the processes economically viable. The objective of the fourth section was to apply modeling and simulation techniques that can assist in the design and assisted development of catalysts and methods for obtaining sustainable and ecological biofuels and to develop new separators of the co-products of the biodiesel production process. The last section is about the microbial conversion of crude glycerol to bioplastics and their building-block molecules.This book aims to provide an in-depth analysis and discussion of the basics of biodiesel production, developing new value-added biofuels and their biorefineries of possible products from an improved raw material. The target audience includes researchers, engineering design and biodiesel production facilities and graduates seeking a benchmark in biodiesel production.

Описание:
Contemporary thinkers and researchers from different parts of the world involved in achieving human development employ Vygotsky’s theory in order to deal with new social challenges arising in a global but deeply divided world (Santos, 2000; Souza e Santos, 2008; Mart?n-Bar?, 1998). The chapters of this book shed light onto Vygotsky’s initial principles adding critical and social perspectives as a way of expanding his legacy to global contemporary needs such as a critical reflection from the perspective of social change, social dynamics and human development, ethical-political situations of action power, dialectic relationship of the human being with society, contradictions in an individual’s dramatic life events and awareness of the social environment to actively change the existing forms of life.

Описание: "The End, a riotous, sex-stuffed novel by Torres, which takes Technicolor pleasure in detailing the deaths of five incorrigible old beach bums of the Bossa Nova generation.... Her five men, whom she kills off in reverse chronology, are 'united by male allegiance, women, and the beach, in that order'.... With America undergoing a mass reckoning with male sexuality, a novel like this feels both taboo and gleeful, a guilty kind of reprieve." --Hermione Hoby, The New YorkerFrom Fernanda Torres, the celebrated Brazilian actress and bestselling author of The End, comes a riotous tragicomedy of a famed actor's path from national sex symbol to cult icon to raving madman after a disastrous performance as King Lear. Mario Cardoso's meteoric rise to fame begins in the early sixties, when the promise of sex and revolution permeates the Rio air. But as he conquers the stage, arthouse cinema, and primetime TV, the fever and the decadence of stardom take their toll, and middle-aged Mario finds himself with an ebbing reputation, hairline, and bank account. He needs a royal comeback. Enter King Lear. Mario's turn as Shakespeare's mad monarch goes well until he's overtaken by a fit of laughter that gets more demented with each performance. Forced to cancel the show, he's confronted with his mother's unstaged madness--she's now convinced that Mario is in fact her long-departed husband. Broke and desperate, Mario signs on for an evangelical network production: Sodoma. Yet, as low as he's fallen, Mario's final set is one he never imagined. With the wicked humor and fleet-footed pace that made her novel The End a runaway bestseller in Brazil, Fernanda Torres's Glory and its Litany of Horrors is a razor-sharp take on the uneasy marriage of Art and the marketplace, and on the profession of acting in all its horror and glory.

Автор: Canales Fernanda Название: Shared Structures, Intimate Space: Housing in Mexico ISBN: 1945150882 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781945150883 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 42300.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: A case study that analyzes the relationship between ideas and houses, this book focuses on 100 years of housing projects in Mexico: from the space that lies between bedrooms to that of streets and of society itself; from the space that first appears as a graphic representation to its ultimate role in defining our cities. This book questions the common tools used to conceive and represent housing projects. It attempts to collate the discourses of different authors in order to trace the meaning of privacy within shared structures. The global phenomenon of massive urbanization that originated in Latin America manifested itself in Mexico at an unseen scale and has since been a testing ground for novel housing and urban solutions. The geographic, social, and economic diversity of Mexico constitute a prime example of the challenges inherent to meeting individual needs in an increasingly crowded world. The drawings and essays comprise new ways of looking at theories and buildings in order to redefine the connection between housing and the city.
