Círculos de tiza
Círculos de tiza cuenta la historia de un niño andaluz, Julio Colinas, que llega a las cuencas mineras asturianas en los años cincuenta con siete años -es testigo atónito de un accidente de mina que mata a su padre, militante del Partido Comunista-. Cincuenta años después, y como jefe de la Policía del Nalón, vuelve a enfrentarse a la muerte. Debe resolver lo que parece un asesinato «por intereses». En el camino se encuentra a sus antiguos amigos, que, como él, ocupan cargos de relevancia: uno de ellos es alcalde y otro, jefe de la oposición. Todos vuelven, en cierto modo, a la infancia para retomar uno de sus juegos preferidos: «policías y ladrones».
Inferior
What science has gotten so shamefully wrong about women, and the fight, by both female and male scientists, to rewrite what we thought we knew For hundreds of years it was common sense: women were the inferior sex. Their bodies were weaker, their minds feebler, their role subservient. No less a scientist than Charles Darwin asserted that women were at a lower stage of evolution, and for decades, scientists—most of them male, of course—claimed to find evidence to support this.

The Caucasian Chalk Circle
This Student Edition of Brecht's classic dramatisation of the conflict over possession of a child features an extensive introduction and commentary that includes a plot summary, discussion of the context, themes, characters, style and language as well as questions for further study and notes on words and phrases in the text. It is the perfect edition for students of theatre and literature. Brecht projects an ancient Chinese story onto a realistic setting in Soviet Georgia. In a theme that echoes the Judgment of Solomon, two women argue over the possession of a child; thanks to the unruly judge, Azdak (one of Brecht's most vivid creations) natural justice is done and the peasant Grusha keeps ...
Performing Spanishness
"The analysis of Rodríguez Méndez's work from the late 1950s to the mid-70s is enriched by detailed evidence from censors' reports, providing fascinating case studies of the unpredictability of censorship under a dictatorial regime. Some of the most powerful plays banned during that time have been revived since 1975, and the book includes discussion of these influential productions. All quotations in Spanish are translated into English."--Back cover.
