Ganadora del Man Booker Prize y del National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction.Una extraordinaria novela sobre el amor, la pérdida y el desarraigo.Nueva edición con un prólogo inédito de la autora.Galardonada con los dos premios mas prestigiosos de la literatura en lengua inglesa, el Man Booker Prize y el National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction, El legado de la perdida es una novela de extraordinaria amplitud y sensibilidad. Ambientada a mediados de los años ochenta, entre el norte de la India y las calles de Nueva York, explora los deseos, conflictos y desarraigos que definen nuestro mundo contemporaneo.En una casa aislada y en ruinas, al pie del Himalaya, vive un viejo juez que anhela retirarse en paz cuando su nieta huerfana, Sai, llega a su puerta. El cocinero del juez, un hombre bondadoso a quien le fascina contar historias, la cuida con afecto, aunque sus pensamientos viajan lejos, hacia su hijo Biju, que encadena trabajos precarios en los restaurantes de Nueva York mientras intenta mantenerse un paso por delante del Servicio de Inmigracion y hallar su lugar en el mundo.En las montañas, una insurgencia nepali sacude la region y altera el incipiente amor de Sai por su joven tutor, Gyan, atraido por la rebelion y las promesas de cambio. Las vidas de todos -el juez, el cocinero, la nieta y el hijo ausente- se ven arrastradas por la misma corriente de incertidumbre y deseo, mientras la nacion entera se debate entre la esperanza y la traicion.Con una mirada lucida y compasiva, Kiran Desai explora las fracturas del amor y del exilio, las huellas del colonialismo y las ilusiones de la globalizacion. Luminosa y profunda, El legado de la perdida es una novela conmovedora sobre la condicion humana, sobre los sueños y las derrotas que conforman la vida moderna, y sobre como, a veces, lo que se pierde revela con mas fuerza quienes somos.La critica ha dicho: Serena, elegante y segura. [ ] Alcanza una belleza extraordinaria.The TimesKiran Desai logra explorar, con intimidad y lucidez, practicamente todos los grandes temas contemporaneos de alcance internacional: la globalizacion, el multiculturalismo, la desigualdad economica, el fundamentalismo y la violencia terrorista. [ ] Su novela parece iluminada por una inteligencia moral a la vez feroz y compasiva. [ ] La prosa de Desai posee una flexibilidad y un equilibrio asombrosos. Es imposible no maravillarse ante su poder artistico. Pankaj Mishra, The New York Times Book ReviewUna historia que se mueve entre dos mundos: la promesa de una vida mejor y el precio que inevitablemente hay que pagar por ella.San Francisco ChronicleAgil en su ritmo y de una prosa suntuosa, la novela reflexiona sobre la nacion, la modernidad y la clase social, de un modo tan conmovedor como revelador.The New YorkerSi las reseñas literarias fueran directas al grano, esta diria simplemente: ¡Es una novela fantastica! ¡Leanla!The Boston GlobeImpresionante. [ ] Una gran novela que se extiende desde la India hasta Nueva York; una obra ambiciosa que penetra en la vida de la clase media y de los mas pobres; una novela escrita con exuberancia, que mezcla registros coloquiales y literarios.The GuardianMaravillosa.Financial Times

En una pequeña isla existe un buzón en el que solo se admiten cartas de amor. Una historia real sobre el poder de la imaginación.Había una vez un hombre de espíritu excéntrico y bohemio que vivía en una pequeña ciudad en la isla de La Palma. Se hacia llamar El Conde de Velhoco, y muchos veneraban su reino imaginario, sus ideas y su manera fascinante de ver la vida. Un dia, harto de recibir facturas, el Conde escribio sobre su buzon las palabras Solo cartas de amor en señal de protesta por tanta burocracia. Al poco tiempo, ante la sorpresa de los habitantes de la casa, empezaron a llegar decenas de cartas de lugareños y extranjeros relatando sus pasiones y sus penas. De eso hace mas de diez años y nunca han dejado de llegar.Una historia tan real como increible y emocionante sobre un hombre, Angel Greses, que sabia mirar el mundo con ojos magicos y consiguio contagiar de su hechizo a los habitantes de una isla, a su familia y a miles de personas que, rebelandose a lo anodino, en contra de lo esperado, decidieron compartir sus emociones mas intimas con un desconocido a traves de una pequeña ranura. En estas paginas, Guadalupe Greses hace un maravilloso ejercicio narrativo que es a la vez un homenaje al hombre, al mito que queda tras la muerte y al padre que fue.El cartero pasaba, sonreia al ver el mensaje si no estaba su mente soterrada por otros menesteres, y, acto seguido, procedia a atiborrarlo de papeles sin remordimiento, cumpliendo con su deber. ¿Que otra cosa iba a hacer? La unica diferencia era que, entre tanta miseria, de vez en cuando -muy de vez en cuando- aparecia una carta de amor anonima como una flor que brota repentina en medio de un vertedero.Reseñas:Es una hermosa historia que llena de sentido las lagunas de romanticismo e inquietud literaria que uno tiene.Eldiario.es Un proyecto convertido en lugar de peregrinacion.El periodico de España

Ante los desafíos, los grandes líderes no reaccionan. Dan un paso atrás, ganan perspectiva y toman las mejores decisiones para triunfar.Una guía para pensar con claridad y aprovechar cada oportunidad, sin dejarte llevar por tu ego, tus sesgos o tus emociones.¿Y si existiera una forma de ver tu realidad con claridad, sin el peso de tus propios prejuicios y emociones?A menudo, el mayor obstaculo para tomar decisiones mas sabias y efectivas suele ser nosotros mismos. Nuestra vision limitada sesga nuestras elecciones y nos lleva a defender acciones pasadas en lugar de buscar alternativas mejores. Para avanzar, necesitamos salir de nuestro estrecho punto de vista y ganar una nueva perspectiva. En otras palabras: necesitamos distanciarnos.En Distanciate, el autor superventas y excomandante de la Marina David L. Marquet y el profesor de psicologia Michael Gillespie presentan una poderosa herramienta: el distanciamiento. Esta sencilla pero poco aprovechada capacidad nos permite salir de nosotros mismos para ver con claridad y decidir con sabiduria.A traves de tres practicas esenciales:*Distanciamiento del yo: adoptar la mirada de un observador externo.*Distanciamiento espacial: ampliar la perspectiva y vernos como parte de un todo mas amplio.*Distanciamiento temporal: tomar decisiones desde el punto de vista de nuestro yo futuro.Combinando ciencia, historias reales y herramientas practicas, Distanciate nos enseña a elevarnos por encima del ego y la emocion, superar los sesgos que nos limitan y tomar decisiones mas claras, inteligentes y conscientes: en el liderazgo, en la vida y a largo plazo.La critica ha dicho:Un analisis lucido, con numerosos ejercicios y preguntas de reflexion muy utiles, para lectores que busquen un nuevo enfoque para la toma de decisiones.PublishersWeekly Distanciate es un libro claro, riguroso y profundamente revelador: una autentica obra maestra. Ethan Kross, autor best seller de Shift y Chatter Distanciate es una poderosa herramienta de reinvencion personal. Annie Duke, autora best seller de Thinking inBets y Quit Gillespie y Marquet ofrecen herramientas concretas y aplicables para ayudarnos a usar la distancia psicologica y convertirnos en versiones mas sabias de nosotros mismos. Hal Hershfield, autor best seller de Your FutureSelf ¿Quieres mejorar tu vida tomando decisiones mas inteligentes? Empieza por este libro. Lynn Sherr, periodista de ABC News y autora superventas Si quieres decidir mejor, necesitas leer este libro. Verne Harnish, fundador de Entrepreneurs Organization y autor de Start toScale Distanciate te permite ver con claridad tus errores y mejorar tus planes y estrategias para la proxima ocasion.

NUEVA EDICIÓN REVISADA POR LA AUTORA«Una escritora magnífica que grita contra el oleaje».Alana S. Portero«Perturbadora, irreverente, sensual e intuitiva hasta el tuétano».Lorena G. Maldonado, El Espa

Nueva edición revisada de La cimbra y el arco, veinte años después de que su primera edición inaugurara y diera nombre a nuestra emblemática colección la cimbra.La teoría de la arquitectura ya no posee la solidez y la compacidad de los antiguos tratados. Su condicion actual es mas liviana y volatil y se manifiesta de un modo ocasional en articulos, debates o entrevistas. Para evitar que ese saber se pierda o se disipe, la coleccion la cimbra desea recopilar las aportaciones de algunos autores que han desarrollado un pensamiento intenso en torno a la arquitectura.Si algo he aprendido despues de tantos años de dedicacion a estos temas es que todo intento de construccion teorica en nuestro ambito debe, de entrada, asumir su papel auxiliar, su condicion secundaria, su supeditacion a las obras, que son las verdaderas depositarias del conocimiento tanto en arquitectura como en cualquier otra actividad artistica. Ese caracter auxiliar que le atribuyo a la teoria en el campo del arte no disminuye en nada su importancia ni desmiente su valor decisivo. Es, exactamente, como la cimbra que hace posible la construccion del arco: una vez cumplida su mision desaparece y, por tanto, no forma parte de la percepcion que tenemos de la obra acabada, pero, en cambio, sabemos que ha sido un paso obligado e imprescindible, un elemento necesario para erigir lo que ahora vemos y admiramos.
