Enero, la primera novela de Sara Gallardo, es una obra breve y poderosa. Nefer, su protagonista adolescente, vive y trabaja con sus padres y su hermana en el puesto de una estancia donde ordeña vacas en el tambo. Los dias rutinarios del verano se suceden en aparente calma entre la peonada, pero en Nefer crece una angustia que es como una bola negra que la abruma: ha quedado embarazada luego de una violacion. La novela registra magistralmente la imposibilidad de darle voz a esa angustia, y presenta el vinculo con el campo y con los animales como un conocimiento de otro orden capaz de funcionar como refugio ante esa falta de voz.La culpa, el miedo, el odio, y tambien la esperanza, son las emociones con las que este libro, de una potencia asombrosa, atrapa sin remedio al lector. Novela universal situada en el campo argentino, Enero es una demostracion definitiva de la contemporaneidad y la hondura de la literatura de Sara Gallardo, una de las grandes autoras argentinas.

En abril de 1849 Fiódor Dostoievski, con otros veintisiete jóvenes, era detenido y acusado de "crímenes contra la seguridad del Estado"; unos meses después, se le sometía a un simulacro de ejecución, y finalmente a una condena de ocho años de trabajos forzados en Siberia. En 1862 apareceria en forma de libro Memorias de la casa muerta, el recuento autobiografico de sus experiencias en presidio, presentado, bajo una ficticia primera persona, la del "difunto" Alexander Petrovich Gorianchikov. Este hombre, noble e instruido, que jamas ha trabajado, se encuentra de pronto privado de libertad, obligado a los esfuerzos mas penosos, rapado y encadenado, en compañia de montañeses, bandoleros, asesinos, presos politicos y mendigos.Incluso los condenados a pena perpetua soñaban con algo casi imposible. Fiodor M. Dostoievski

MIND POWER: The Secret of Mental Magic (Unabridged) presents a systematic primer in directing thought as an active force. In brisk, didactic chapters, Atkinson surveys will, attention, suggestion, "mental vibration," thoughtforms, and personal magnetism, pairing metaphysical assertions with drills in concentration, visualization, and affirmation. Rooted in New Thought and the occult revival, the unabridged text preserves his sequential lessons and ethical cautions. William Walker Atkinsonlawyer turned editor and prolific metaphysical educatorsynthesized yogic vocabulary, mesmerist lore, and popular psychology with American pragmatism. Writing also as Yogi Ramacharaka and Theron Q. Dumont, he transformed his own collapse and recovery through New Thought discipline into pedagogy, using his Chicago Yogi Publication Society as both workshop and megaphone for techniques of autosuggestion, concentration, and mental selfgovernment. Scholars of selfhelp and suggestion, as well as readers seeking a classic manual of inner discipline, will value this edition as both document and guide. Read criticallyits period vocabulary and claims show their agebut try its exercises: insights on attention, belief, and will anticipate later behavioral methods and reward patient, ethical practice.Quickie Classics summarizes timeless works with precision, preserving the authors voice and keeping the prose clear, fast, and readabledistilled, never diluted.

Thomas Mann is regarded as one of the most important writers of German and European modernism. Born in Lubeck into a prosperous merchant family, he was early shaped by the tension between bourgeois values and artistic vocation, a conflict that would become central to his literary work. After initial success as a young author, he settled in Munich and soon emerged as a leading intellectual voice of his generation. In 1929 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, primarily for his novel Buddenbrooks. During the Nazi era, Mann went into exilefirst to Switzerland, later to the United Stateswhere he became an outspoken critic of National Socialism and a defender of democratic humanism. After the Second World War, he returned to Europe. His literary legacy lies in the combination of narrative mastery, intellectual depth, and moral seriousness with which he explored cultural, political, and psychological crises of the modern world.The central themes of his works include identity, illness, art, power, and moral responsibility. Their lasting importance stems from Manns ability to illuminate universal human conflicts and historical ruptures in ways that remain compelling, relevant, and deeply engaging for readers today.This edition brings together the greatest novels and stories by Thomas Mann, offering a comprehensive view of his literary achievement. At its core are his most celebrated novels, which have become enduring classics of German literature. Buddenbrooks traces the decline of a bourgeois merchant family over several generations, combining social realism with a profound critique of cultural decay. Royal Highness presents an ironic and elegant examination of monarchy, duty, and personal fulfillment. The Magic Mountain stands as a monumental novel of ideas: set in a Swiss sanatorium, it reflects on time, illness, and the intellectual currents shaping Europe before the First World War. Lotte in Weimar revisits Goethes world to explore memory, genius, and national identity through rich dialogue and historical reflection. Doctor Faustus reinterprets the Faust myth as an allegory of Germanys cultural brilliance and moral catastrophe in the twentieth century. The Holy Sinner (The Chosen One) transforms medieval legend into a modern meditation on guilt, redemption, and grace. Confessions of Felix Krull, Confidence Man combines the picaresque tradition with sharp social satire, portraying identity as performance and illusion.Alongside these novels, the volume includes Thomas Manns most important short stories and novellasfrom early works such as Little Mr. Friedemann to internationally renowned masterpieces like Death in Venice. Together, they demonstrate the stylistic range, psychological insight, and intellectual ambition that define Manns uvre and secure its lasting place in world literature.
