Spanish Vampire Fiction since 1900
Spanish Vampire Fiction since 1900: Blood Relations, as that subtitle suggests, makes the case for considering Spanish vampire fiction an index of the complex relationship between intercultural phenomena and the specifics of a time, place, and author. Supernatural beings that drink blood are found in folklore worldwide, Spain included, and writers ranging from the most canonical to the most marginal have written vampire stories, Spanish ones included too.

Must Read: Rediscovering American Bestsellers
What is it about certain books that makes them bestsellers? Why do some of these books remain popular for centuries, and others fade gently into obscurity? And why is it that when scholars do turn their attention to bestsellers, they seem only to be interested in the same handful of blockbusters, when so many books that were once immensely popular remain under-examined? Addressing those and other equally pressing questions about popular literature, Must Read is the first scholarly collection to offer both a survey of the evolution of American bestsellers as well as critical readings of some of the key texts that have shaped the American imagination since the nation's founding. Focusing on a mix of enduring and forgotten bestsellers, the essays in this collection consider 18th and 19th century works, like Charlotte Temple or Ben-Hur, that were once considered epochal but are now virtually ignored; 20th century favorites such as The Sheik and Peyton Place; and 21st century blockbusters including the novels of Nicholas Sparks, The Kite Runner, and The Da Vinci Code.
Manicomios malditos
Lugares impregnados por la locura, por la desesperanza, por la vida que se apaga, por la falta de cuidados, por los abusos, por la sordidez, por los fantasmas que muchos decían ver y que atribuían a una locura cuando, realmente, estaba sucediendo, lo paranormal se estaba manifestando pero… ¿Quién podría creer a un loco? Muchos de los lugares de los que habla este apasionante libro tienen esa esencia, manicomios de España o del mundo, los peores, los que reúnen un mayor grado de hechos paranormales y en los que, les garantiza el autor, no les gustaría pasar una noche o quedarse solos.
