Decade II: A 20th Anniversary Anthology
Decade II: an Anniversary Anthology is a select collection from Revista Chicano-Rique–a/The Americas Review during the decade of 1983-1992, and a celebration of the Twentieth Anniversary of the founding in 1973 of the most important U.S. Hispanic literary magazine. For twenty years RCR/TAR has been a vanguard literary review. In its pages first appeared writers who would develop into our major writers. Those interested in the history and excitement of Latino literature of the past decade would do well to savor the selections of this Anniversary Anthology. An introduction by Juli‡n Olivares provides the historical and cultural context in which these works were created. Appearing alongside those writers whose works also appeared in the first anniversary Decade, are twenty-seven new and younger voices which speak of new experiences and from fresh perspectives, enriching and enlarging the horizon of U.S. Hispanic literature.
The New Dramatists of Mexico 1967–1985
In 1976 a dozen hopeful young Mexican dramatists – most of them studying with Emilio Carballido – began staging plays, primarily in small, out-of-the-way theater, and publishing them, mostly in university magazines with limited distribution. Until now, more than twenty years later, there has been no comprehensive study devoted either to this original group of writers or to those who followed in the same generation, and no central source of information about them or their production. Although they continue to produce more plays every year, they represent a lost generation. Ronald Burgess now offers the first extensive study of this group of playwrights and their work. Included is discussi...
Un Rayo de Sol Entra por la Ventana
Novela romantica en la que los personajes principales son mujeres cuyas vidas, de una u otra forma, son regidas por las reglas sociales y las decisiones que toman los hombres de su círculo familiar. Una tarde de sábado Carolina es abordada por su abuela, quien comienza a revelarle la verdad sobre sus antepasados. Esta narración se extiende por meses, y en ella se intercalan hechos que ocurrieron hace unos cien años con otros más recientes, cuando la abuela era joven. Así, se crean dos historias paralelas sobre la misma familia, separadas en el tiempo y el espacio. Cada suceso revelado, cada hecho explicado es una verdadera revelación para Carolina, quien no conocía nada del pasado de su familia. Y a la vez es como una confesión de la abuela, quien se libera de la carga de tantos secretos.

Busca incansável
Essa é a história das difíceis provações que Edward, um indivíduo do século XVIII, que estava até então sem esperança e caindo sobre o abismo da falência, passará para receber a salvação de sua vida.

A Light in the Darkness: The Music and Life of Joaquín Rodrigo
A composer of singular vision. Joaquín Rodrigo (1901–1999) is best known as the composer of one of the most popular works of music in the twentieth century—the Concierto de Aranjuez for guitar and orchestra. It’s been featured in movies and television commercials and remains a staple of concert programs for orchestras around the world. Miles Davis said, “After listening to it for a couple of weeks…I couldn’t get it out of my mind,” and he used it as inspiration for his album Sketches of Spain. But as Javier Suárez-Pajares and Walter Aaron Clark reveal in this musical biography—the first complete study in English—Rodrigo’s work and influence extend far beyond that singul...
