JAMES BOND

JAMES BOND IS HOT ON THE TRAIL OF TWO STOLEN ATOM BOMBSUpon M’s insistence, James Bond takes a two-week respite in a secluded natural health spa. But amid the bland teas and tasteless yogurts Bond stumbles onto the trail of a lethal man with ties to a new secret organization called SPECTRE. When SPECTRE hijacks two A-bombs, a frantic global search for the weapons ensues, and M’s hunch that the plane containing the bombs will make a clean drop into the ocean sends Bond to the Bahamas to investigate.On the island paradise, 007 finds a wealthy pleasure seeker’s treasure hunt and meets Domino Vitali, the gorgeous mistress of Emilio Largo, otherwise known as SPECTRE’s Number 1. But as powerful as he is, Emilio works for someone else: Ernst Stavro Blofeld, a peculiar man with a deadly creative mind.

Typewriter Beach

Esta novela rescata una biografía novelada del poeta, Pedro Garfias perteneciente a la Generación del 27, su vida en España, su paso por la Residencia de Estudiantes y amistad con los miembros de dicho grupo, su participación dentro de la guerra civil, su exilio en México y su muerte en la ciudad de Monterrey, al norte de México. ¿Qué es un extravío? ¿significa algo la pérdida? El corazón extraviado es una novela sobre los que no salen en la foto, aquellos artistas mujeres y hombres de la Generación del 27 que no formaron parte de la nómina, pero cuya existencia anodina, se empecina en aparecer. Fueron parte de la Segunda República y vivieron la guerra, acabando desplazados en el exilio. ¿Quién fue Pedro Garfias? ¿Quiénes fueron las Sinsombrero? Qué fue Madrid con ellos y los demás, cómo fue su arte y la pérdida de España. Pedro Garfias, un poeta fotografiado con Lorca, Dalí y Buñuel, que luego desaparece para acabar en México, deambulando entre ciudades. Pero también es la historia de una librería y sus fantasmas, asimismo, la de un corazón desplazado de sitio desde la infancia por una extraña anomalía y un ritmo que no funciona bien. El extravío de la memoria del 27 es la misma del corazón descompasado.
