No one knows whether Homer was a real person, but there is no doubt that the epic poems assembled under his name are foundations of Western literature. The Iliad and the Odyssey—with their tales of the Trojan War, Achilles, Odysseus and Penelope, the Cyclops, the beautiful Helen of Troy, and the petulant gods—have inspired us for over two and a half millennia and influenced writers from Plato to Virgil, Pope to Joyce, and Dante to Margaret Atwood.

Tracing 25 centuries of human history, from the fourth century BC to the present day, Manguel dedicates each of his chapters to a single character - ranging from our best-known thinkers, scientists, and artists to seemingly minor figures of whom we know little more than one inspired utterance - in whom he identifies a particular way of asking the question "why?"

Story0
Hay escritores con manías dignas de un loquero y vidas tan asombrosas que hacen palidecer a las de sus propios personajes. Novelistas incapaces de escribir una página sin tener una copa en la mano o tan prolíficos que acabaron asfixiados en su propio ego. Un Hemingway yéndose al otro mundo en circunstancias exactas a la que eligió su padre, dos de sus hermanas y una nieta. Un Scott Fitzgerald que entraba a los casinos a cuatro patas o una Virginia Woolf que no soportaba leer sus textos.

In June 2015 Alberto Manguel prepared to leave his centuries-old village home in France's Loire Valley and reestablish himself in a one-bedroom apartment on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Packing up his enormous, 35,000 volume personal library, choosing which books to keep, store, or cast out, Manguel found himself in deep reverie on the nature of relationships between books and readers, books and collectors, order and disorder, memory and reading.

Dalle prime memorie d'infanzia alla morte della madre, Diario d'inverno è il catalogo della vita di un uomo raccontato attraverso il suo corpo. In nessun altro libro Paul Auster era stato tanto spietato e dolce. Forse perché si tratta di arrivare alla verità, la più nascosta, quella più dolorosa, ma anche quella più preziosa.

"Recuerdo la mañana en que conocí a Octavio Paz. Fue el 11 de marzo de 1976, en el Panteón Jardín, cuando un grupo de amigos despedíamos al gran ensayista Daniel Cosío Villegas [...] Me acerqué a él para proponerle la publicación en su revista Plural de un ensayo mío sobre el ilustre liberal recién desaparecido. Días después, mi nombre apareció junto al suyo, pero nunca sospeché que ese vínculo sería permanente."

Un appassionato scambio di lettere che disegna la biografia emotiva e la vita di una coppia bella e dannata, quella di Francis Scott Fitzgerald e sua moglie Zelda. Poche storie d'amore sono diventate una leggenda come questa: uno scrittore di disarmante talento che morì a quarantaquattro anni consumato dalla tubercolosi e dall'alcol, soltanto otto anni prima che l'eterna ragazza in cui aveva specchiato tutte le sue turbolente eroine bruciasse nel rogo di una clinica per malattie mentali.

Compilación de algunas de las entrevistas más célebres a personajes de la cultura, la política y el entretenimiento. La entrevista es el encuentro con lo insólito, con las distintas caras de las mujeres y los hombres que poco a poco revelan las extraordinarias contradicciones que los vuelven únicos. Desde Julio Cortázar hasta Cantinflas, de Renato Leduc a El Santo, este libro compendia los diálogos más reveladores y peculiares que la autora sostuvo con los protagonistas de la escena cultural, literaria y política de nuestro tiempo; un auténtico regocijo para el curioso que todos llevamos dentro.

"A volte i posti assomigliano semplicemente ai loro nomi", scrive Sandro Veronesi a proposito di Montevideo; a volte, invece, i luoghi, i volti, i fatti, hanno bisogno di altre parole per essere visti. È questa narrazione visiva a legare assieme, in un flusso unico eppure fatto di cose molto diverse, i reportage che compongono "Live".

Un legado invaluable que nos invita a seguir leyendo, escribiendo y soñando Este libro constituye un acto de gratitud intelectual, una muestra de deslumbramiento —producto de una fervorosa lectura de sus libros—, pero sobre todo es una invitación a acercarse al autor latinoamericano más universal. Escribió Jorge Luis Borges que él se sentía más orgulloso de las obras que había leído que de las que había escrito. Orgullo que comparte con uno de sus mejores lectores: José Emilio Pacheco.
