Such Small Hands

Her father died instantly, her mother in the hospital. She has learned to say this flatly and without emotion, the way she says her name (Marina), her doll's name (also Marina) and her age (seven). Her parents were killed in a car crash and now she lives in the orphanage with the other little girls. But Marina is not like the other little girls. In the curious, hyperreal, feverishly serious world of childhood, Marina and the girls play games of desire and warfare. The daily rituals of playtime, lunchtime and bedtime are charged with a horror; horror is licked by the dark flames of love. When Marina introduces the girls to Marina the Doll, she sets in motion a chain of events from which there can be no release. With shades of Daphne du Maurier, Shirley Jackson, Guillermo Del Toro and Mariana Enrquez, Such Small Hands is a beautifully controlled tour-de-force, a bedtime story to keep readers awake.

Actores locales, impactos globales: aportes académicos en paradiplomacia

Este libro es representante de una corriente paulatinamente vigente en la realidad mundial y, por tanto, en los estudios de las relaciones internacionales; se convierte también en pionero de tales temas en la academia de Jalisco. Lo que propone Actores locales, impactos globales: aportes académicos en paradiplomacia, es imaginar que los estudios hechos desde las relaciones internacionales puedan tocar tierra inmediata. La tradición de análisis geopolíticos, diplomáticos, de política exterior, continúan teniendo un lugar privilegiado en el universo de esta ciencia social, pero el mundo cambia y el principal cambio es que el Estado, con mayúscula, ha venido cediendo espacio de actor global privilegiado que acaparaba la atención intelectual hacia otros espacios, los espacios inmediatos, los que directamente nos competen, en los cuales se siente el impacto de la toma de decisiones mundiales.

"San Cristóbal was an unremarkable city--small, newly prosperous, contained by rain forest and river. But then the children arrived. No one knew where they came from: thirty-two kids, seemingly born of the jungle, speaking an unknown language. At first they scavenged, stealing food and money and absconding to the trees. But their transgressions escalated to violence, and then the city's own children began defecting to join them. Facing complete collapse, municipal forces embark on a hunt to find the kids before the city falls into irreparable chaos."--

Das 4. Internationale Literaturfestival Berlin (21.9. bis 2.10.2004) stellt 100 eingeladene Autoren mit Foto, Biographie in deutscher und englischer Sprache sowie einer Auswahl ihrer wichtigsten Publikationen vor. Aufgrund der großen Resonanz wird der Katalog in ähnlicher Konzeption, wie 2003 erscheinen. Jeder Autor wurde gebeten, eine individuelle Antwort zum Motto "Make answer, Muse!" zu senden. Ihre spontanen Reaktionen - ob Foto, Collage, Gedicht oder object trouvé - wurden gestalterisch integriert. Was tun die Dichter, wenn die Musen schweigen, die Inspiration versagt, die Feder bockt, die Tinte stockt? Selbst Shakespeare litt unter dem "Schreibblock", wie seine ungeduldige Anrufung ...

A novel written as a sharp parable of American society, addressing love, purpose, discrimination, and poverty. In Jeffrey Lewis's novel of the same name, the Land of Cockaigne, once an old medieval peasants' vision of a sensual paradise on earth, is reimagined as a plot on the coast of Maine. In efforts to assuage their grief over their son's death and to make meaning of his life, Walter Rath and Catherine Gray build what they hope will be a version of paradise for a group of young men from the Bronx. As Walter and Catherine work to reinvent this land, formerly a summer resort, the surrounding town of Sneeds Harbor proves resistant. The residents' well-meaning doubts lead to well-hidden thre...
