"On January 16, 1983, Aubrey LaHaye's body was found floating in the Bayou Nezpique. His kidnapping ten days before sparked "the biggest manhunt in the history of Evangeline Parish." But his descendants would hear the story as lore, in whispers of the dreadful day the FBI landed a helicopter in the family's rice field and set out on horseback to search for the seventy-year-old banker. Decades later, Aubrey's great-granddaughter Jordan LaHaye Fontenot asked her father, the parish urologist, to tell the full story. He revealed that to this day, every few months, one of his patients will bring up his grandfather's murder, and the man accused of killing him, John Brady Balfa, who remains at Angola Prison serving a life sentence. They'll say, in so many words: "Dr. Marcel, I really don't think that Balfa boy killed your granddaddy." For readers of Maggie Nelson's THE RED PARTS and Emma Copley Eisenberg's THE THIRD RAINBOW GIRL, HOME OF THE HAPPY unravels the layers of suffering borne of this brutal crime-and investigates the mysteries that linger beneath generations of silence. Is it possible that an innocent man languishes in prison, still, wrongly convicted of murdering the author's great-grandfather?"--

Conocida como la “Reina del pop latino” y la “Madonna Latina”, Rubio ha vendido más de 15 millones de récords, lo que la convierte en uno de los artistas de música latina más vendidos de todos lo tiempos. Tiene más de 1.5 millones de seguidores en Instagram, 5.4 millones en Facebook y más de 11 millones en Twitter (que la colocan como la tercera mexicana más popular en Twitter). Sus giras por Norteamérica agotan sus entradas en cuestión de horas en ciudades como Miami, Los Ángeles, Chicago y Nueva York. Ésta es la autobiografía oficial de la adorada cantante mexicoestadounidense, la historia detrás de una de las más prominentes cantantes/artistas/actrices/ mujeres de negocios de Latinoamérica. Un recuento sin límites desde las alturas (giras mundiales con entradas agotadas) hasta las desgarradoras caídas (dos divorcios, ambos debidos a la infidelidad de los esposos). Por primera vez, Paulina abre su corazón y su alma en estas páginas para sus millones de seguidores y cuenta los momentos cruciales de su pasado, revela sus experiencias con los problemas sobre su apariencia física, cómo se abrió paso en una industria dominada por hombres, la crianza de sus hijos como madre soltera y cómo aprendió que sólo puede depender de ella misma.

Como adolescente, se unió al popular grupo mexicano de chicas, Timbiriche, y más tarde, como artista individual y actriz, alcanzó la cima de la industrial musical, y con frecuencia recibe el nombre de la Madonna Latina. Por su parte, muchos periodistas y críticos han asegurado que el gran éxito de Paulina también se ha visto influido por acontecimientos de su vida personal. Desde que comenzó su carrera, el publico tuvo mucho interés en explorar su vida personal. Elena Reina, periodista de El País, asegura que su éxito se ha debido a la “brillante estrategia de mercado basada en su vida privada”. También se sabe que los conciertos de Rubio son caros. Su presentación en la gala de Santa Cruz de Tenerife en España en febrero de 2020 se convirtió en la presentación más cara jamás pagada a un artista en ese evento.

A Little More of Me \ Un poco más de mí (Spanish edition)

The big-hearted, bestselling South Korean memoir co-written by two best friends flouting gender norms and societal expectations with their decision to grow old together under one roof. When most of their peers were moving in with romantic partners and having children, Kim Hana and Hwang Sunwoo chose independence—savoring solitude, quiet mornings, and the unmitigated freedom of living alone. But in their forties, something shifted, and they were met with a new, unexpected loneliness. Refusing to settle for the outdated choice between marriage or isolation, Hana and Sunwoo made a radical decision: to buy a home and live together—not as lovers, not as roommates, but as chosen family.Now a bustling household of two women and four cats, Hana and Sunwoo still value solitude, but can do so while sharing a life and its meaning with someone else. Together they navigate the challenges and comforts of cohabiting in midlife, the growing pains of interdependence and the unexpected rewards of compromise when you’ve grown set in your ways. From sick days to career wins to aging parents and beach-side retirement plans, they are redefining domestic bliss on their own terms, where love, partnership, and home are defined not by tradition, but by choice.With warmth, wit, and sharp social insight, Hana and Sunwoo share their blueprint for building a life outside the scripts of marriage and society’s expectations for women. Two Women Living Together is a quiet revolution—a celebration of female friendship, community, and the many forms that love and family can take.

It's Never Too Late

"From the author of Charles James: Portrait of an Unreasonable Man, the long-awaited biography of Gala Dalâi, whose face is known been many and whose story is known by few, until now. SURREAL presents the riveting life story of Gala, Salvador Dalâi's wife, partner, and muse. A charismatic, uninhibited, very human woman, she was a force majeure in pre-war Paris' legendary Surrealist circles where she was idolized as 'the mother of Surrealism.' As Dalâi's great love, artistic collaborator, and the genius behind his vast fortune, Gala inflected the cultural history of the twentieth century. But despite her influence on Western art and literature, very little is known about her life. Gala was a paradoxical figure, with a charisma that drew people to her but a reserved nature that kept her secrets hidden. She was a survivor of two World Wars, the Russian Revolution, and the Spanish Civil War. She was miserly, but also a brilliant promoter and marketing virtuoso who made millions for herself, her husband, and their entourage. Despite her notoriety, Gala was never properly acknowledged or understood, and records of her life story and accomplishments remain fragmented. SURREAL brings her life into focus and assembles the full picture of this fascinating and powerful woman"--

"Michele Gerber Klein—at long last—gives Gala Dalí the close-up she deserves. When Gala met Salvador, they met their destinies.&nbsp;Surreal&nbsp;takes us backstage at the endless performance piece that was the couple’s life’s work and life’s play—a salient ingredient—and reshuffles art history along the way. Pour a stiff Pernod or Absinthe, kick back, and enjoy this delightfully sparking read."—Brad Gooch, author of&nbsp;Radiant: The Life and Line of Keith Haring"Original, engaging, and fiercely intelligent, Gala Dalí has at last inspired a biography that shares her own best qualities. In this brilliant book, Klein illuminates the crucial importance that Gala held not only for her famous husbands and lovers, but for avant-garde art as a whole."—Caroline Weber, author of&nbsp;Proust’s Duchess&nbsp;and&nbsp;Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore to the RevolutionSurreal, the long-awaited, definitive biography of Gala Dalí, unmasks this famous yet little-known queen of the twentieth-century art world, who graced the canvases, inspired the poetry, and influenced the careers of her illustrious lovers and husbands with tenderness, courage, and agency.Using previously undiscovered material, Surreal tells the riveting story of Gala Dalí, (1894-1982) who broke away from her cultured but penurious background in pre-Revolutionary Russia to live in Paris with both France’s most famous poet Paul Éluard and&nbsp;Max Ernst. By the time she met the budding artist Salvador Dalí in 1929, Gala was known as the Mother of Surrealism. She rapidly became his mentor and protector, marrying him in 1934 and subsequently engineering their vast fortune. At a time when artists were celebrities, Gala acted as the ambassador of the Surrealist movement, spreading its popularity across the globe. She was the survivor of two world wars, the Russian revolution and the Spanish Civil War, and lived between France, Spain and the U.S. Gala was a heroine whose originality captivated people wherever she went, and her life story has everything: size; glamour; drama; true love, twisted love; ambition; money; art; defiance; daring and sweeping social unrest.&nbsp;In this vivid, detailed rendering,&nbsp;Michèle Gerber Klein has brought Gala out of the shadows to reveal a charismatic figure who played a pivotal role in the art world yet has never received the full recognition she deserves.
