Many were active writers; they participated in the development of medical record-keeping and research, and they wrote self-help books, social and political essays, fiction, and poetry. Out of the Dead House rediscovers the contributions these women made to the developing practice of medicine and to a community of women in science.

The women she discusses include Ann Preston, the first woman dean o...

Tatiana (Arkady Renko 8)
Rica en personajes, humor negro y romanticismo, Tatiana es, más que una novela de misterio, la obra más ambiciosa y políticamente atrevida de Martin Cruz Smith desde Parque Gorki. Arkady Renko, uno de los investigadores icónicos de la ficción contemporánea, ha sobrevivido a la travesía cultural desde la Unión Soviética hasta la Nueva Rusia sólo para encontrarse con una nación tan obsesionadacon el secretismo y la brutalidad como durante la dic- tadura comunista. En Tatiana, desentraña un misterio tan complejo y peligroso como la Rusia moderna. La temeraria periodista Tatiana Petrova muere al caer desde la ventana de su piso en Moscú la misma sema-na en que es asesinado un multimillonario mafioso. La pista de ambos sucesos conduce a Kaliningrado, «ciudad secreta» de la guerra fría. Al ahondar en el pasado de Tatiana, Arkady encuentra un mundo surrealista de dunas viajeras, niños abandonados y una libreta escrita en el código indescifrable de un intérprete muerto.

Tatiana & Alexander
Né la guerra né i 900 giorni dell'assedio di Leningrado sono riusciti a distruggere il grande amore tra Tatiana e Alexander. Ora lei si ritrova sola in America con Anthony, il loro bambino appena nato: le hanno detto che Alexander è morto, ma nel profondo sente che non può averla abbandonata per sempre. Infatti il giovane ufficiale è vivo, anche se nella disperata condizione del prigioniero: caduto nelle mani della famigerata polizia di Stalin, sopravvive tra orribili sofferenze e torture nell'attesa di essere giustiziato come traditore e spia. Eppure Alexander non ha perso la speranza, perché sa che da qualche parte, in America, Tatiana e il figlio che non ha mai conosciuto lo stanno aspettando. Così Tatiana e Alexander continuano a vivere l'una all'insaputa dell'altro, divisi da un oceano, aggrappati al ricordo del loro amore che è riuscito a sconfiggere l'inverno russo e la fame, a sfuggire alle bombe della guerra. E che non può finire.
