As I Lay Dying
Автор: Faulkner William Жанр: Random House, Inc. Год: 1996 Страниц: 256 Дата загрузки: 20 декабря 20092001-08-23

|
The death and burial of Addie Bundren is told by members of her family, as they cart the coffin to Jefferson, Mississippi, to bury her among her people. And as the intense desires, fears and rivalries of the family are revealed in the vernacular of the Deep South, Faulkner presents a portrait of extraordinary power — as epic as the Old Testament, as American as Huckleberry Finn.

Las Valkirias

Un hombre y una mujer, motivados por una busqueda espiritual, viajan hacia la aridez y el supuesto vacio del desierto de Mojave. A lo largo de cuarenta dias, rodeados de dudas y tentaciones, entraran en contacto con sus mas intimos conflictos y cuestionamientos. Paulo Coelho advierte que este ha sido un libro dificil de escribir porque revela episodios y sentimientos de su propia vida; porque dudaba poder narrar esta historia y porque marca la fragil distancia entre la tradicion magica a la que pertenece y el hombre que realmente es. Una nueva guerra va a comenzar, de la cual nadie podra escapar. Veremos dos ejercitos. De un lado quienes todavia creen en la raza humana, en los poderes ocultos del hombre, y saben que nuestro siguiente paso esta en el crecimiento de los dones individuales. Del otro lado estaran los que creen que la vida termina en la materia.
