El descubrimiento de la lentitud (9788417376055)



En una época tan acelerada como la actual
la lentitud es más valiosa que nunca.

Desde que era niño, John Franklin soñaba con el mar, pese a que
la lentitud con que llevaba a cabo cuanto se proponía no lo hacía
la persona más adecuada para los rigores de una vida de marinero.
Franklin percibía el tiempo de una forma singular, y su capacidad
de recordar con la mayor precisión todo aquello que captaban sus
sentidos lo convirtió en uno de los navegantes más interesantes de
todos los tiempos.
Tras alistarse en la Marina, se vio obligado a tomar parte en la
guerra, aunque lo que de verdad anhelaba era surcar en paz los mares
y descubrir el legendario Paso del Noroeste. A esa búsqueda dedicaría
todos sus esfuerzos al mando de un barco?
Basada en la vida del propio Franklin, célebre por sus exploraciones
en el Polo Norte, esta extraordinaria novela es también un
estudio sobre la lentitud como el arte de dar un sentido al ritmo de
la vida.

«Nadolny nos ofrece un héroe de una estirpe nueva,
un hombre capaz de hacer historia gracias al descubrimiento
del poder y la sabiduría de su propia lentitud.»
Del prólogo de Carl Honoré

«John Franklin es el contraste personificado de la frenética
agitación del mundo contemporáneo. El descubrimiento de
la lentitud es la lentitud del descubrimiento.»
The New York Review of Books

Grey : Fifty Shades of Grey as Told by Christian (US edition) (9781101946343)

See the world of Fifty Shades of Grey anew through the eyes of Christian Grey. In Christian's own words, and through his thoughts, reflections, and dreams, E L James offers a fresh perspective on the love story that has enthralled millions of readers around the world. Christian Grey exercises control in all things; his world is neat, disciplined, and utterly empty—until the day that Anastasia Steele falls into his office, in a tangle of shapely limbs and tumbling brown hair. He tries to forget her, but instead is swept up in a storm of emotion he cannot comprehend and cannot resist. Unlike any woman he has known before, shy, unworldly Ana seems to see right through him—past the business prodigy and the penthouse lifestyle to Christian's cold, wounded heart. Will being with Ana dispel the horrors of his childhood that haunt Christian every night? Or will his dark sexual desires, his compulsion to control, and the self-loathing that fills his soul drive this girl away and destroy...

Blue Movie (9780802134660)

A hilarious, wildly erotic, and biting satire of Hollywood, Blue Movie tells the story of King B., an Oscar-winning director who's determined to shoot the dirtiest and most expensive X-rated movie ever made; Sid Krassman, a producer who's made a fortune catering to the tastes of the American public, and Angela Sterling, a misunderstood sex symbol who'd give anything (and everything) for a chance to do something serious. The set is fraught with monstrous egos and enormous libidos -- the kind of situation that could only come from the imagination of the irrepressible Terry Southern.
