Par Leila Guerriero. 2020
"In the late 1990s, a wave of suicides rocked Las Heras, a small oil town in the province of Santa…
Cruz. Most of the dead were around twenty-five years old and were typical inhabitants of the town, children of modest but traditional families. However, the official list of these suicides was never drawn up. Leila Guerriero traveled to this desolate Patagonian spot, talked to the families and friends of the suicides, walked the same streets and visited every corner of the town. The result is this stark and precise account that not only reconstructs the tragic episodes of those years but also magnificently depicts the daily life of a community far from the big cities. Las Heras, with its wave of unemployment and lack of future for young people, is an enigma whose resolution is far from definitive: suicides, like a dismal destiny, followed one another for a long time. This is a disturbing chronicle that reads with fascination and unveils a reality marked by horror, prejudice and indifference." -- Amazon.comQuebrantamiento: cuando Díos convíerte la presión en poder

Par Leire Quintana. 2016
"Leire Quintana decided to leave her life in a big city behind, retreat to a monastery, and learn to listen…
to her own song. How did this experience change the way she saw the world? What life lessons did she learn? Leire Quintana has a lot to tell us: 'I was overwhelmed by the thought of losing my family or friends, and even the impossibility of making new friends because I was in a cloistered monastery. Later I came to recognize that without solitude, the solitude of my cell, I could not progress. [...] Little by little I discovered the causes, the hidden needs that I hadn't known how to manage, I questioned my fears, I embraced them and I knew, by offering them my attention, that that was all they needed to disappear.'" -- Translation provided by NLSA statistician and medical doctor believes most people hold mistaken ideas unsupported by facts about global issues such as poverty,…

Par Elizabeth Duval. 2020
"As a student of Modern Philosophy and Literature in Paris, the writer and activist Elizabeth Duval (Alcalá de Henares, 2000)…
starts a diary that inevitably ends up transforming her reality, mediated by a kind of fictional conception of her own existence. With an exceptional talent to make her prose converse with the history of ideas, thus proposing an interesting device for intellectual stimulation, throughout Queen numerous issues circulate that zigzag between public and private spheres. Among its themes, the following stand out: university life as an initiation to maturity, politics under late capitalism, and post-adolescent love from a perspective that goes beyond all our expectations on the subject and sublimates it in a reflection on affections and desire as universal as radically new." -- Provided by publisherIn vitro (Ensayo (Editorial Almadía))
Par Isabel Zapata. 2021
"In vitro is a pregnancy essay. On the page, the writing gropes its way through unexplored territory. In the laboratory,…
under the watchful eye of the microscope, fertilization is also rehearsed. Pregnancy and writing take place on that threshold of possibilities. In this book, Isabel Zapata shines a light--or a lens--on an experience that seems to exist in a tiny darkness. While life makes its way in a Petri dish, the author poses questions that reveal the rawness of a treatment marked by uncertainty: How is the desire to be a mother articulated? Is there really a resolved mourning? With what voice does what we keep silent speak? Who breaks in childbirth? In In vitro the hidden is revealed as a daughter begins to take shape." -- Translation provided by NLSLatinitas: una celebración de 40 soñadoras audaces

Latin America and across the United States, Juliet Menéndez explores the first small steps that set the Latinitas off on their journeys. With gorgeous, hand-painted illustrations, Menéndez shines a spotlight on the power of childhood dreams. From Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to singer Selena Quintanilla to NASA's first virtual reality engineer, Evelyn Miralles, this is a book for aspiring artists, scientists, activists, and more. These women followed their dreams-and they just might encourage you to follow yours!" -- Goodreads"Illegal, inhuman, and impervious to recession, there is one trade that continues to thrive, just out of sight. The international…
sex trade criss-crosses the entire globe, a sinister network made up of criminal masterminds, local handlers, corrupt policemen, willfully blind politicians, eager consumers, and countless hapless women and children. In this ground-breaking work of investigative reporting, the celebrated journalist Lydia Cacho follows the trail of the traffickers and their victims from Mexico to Turkey, Thailand to Iraq, Georgia to the UK, to expose the trade's hidden links with the tourist industry, internet pornography, drugs and arms smuggling, the selling of body organs, money laundering, and even terrorism. This is an underground economy in which a sex slave can be bought for the price of a gun, but Cacho's powerful first-person interviews with mafiosi, pimps, prostitutes, and those who managed to escape from captivity makes it impossible to ignore the terrible human cost of this lucrative exchange." -- GoodreadsBelleza en lugar de cenizas: cómo recibir sanidad emocional
Par Joyce Meyer. 2012
"Many people seem to have it all together outwardly, but inside they are a wreck. Their past has broken, crushed,…
and wounded them inwardly. They can be healed. God has a plan, and Isaiah 61 reveals that the Lord came to heal the brokenhearted. He wants to heal victims of abuse and emotional wounding. Joyce Meyer is a victim of the physical, mental, emotional, and sexual abuse she suffered as a child. Yet today she has a nationwide ministry of emotional healing to others like herself. In |Beauty for Ashes| she outlines major truths that brought healing in her life and describes how other victims of abuse can also experience God's healing in their lives. Joyce Meyer suffered for thirty-three years the devastating effects of abuse. Now God has exchanged her ashes for beauty and called her to help others allow Him to do the same for them." -- GoodreadsLlorando en el baño: memorias
Par Erika L Sánchez. 2022
"Growing up as the daughter of Mexican immigrants in Chicago in the '90s, Erika Sánchez was a self-described pariah, misfit,…
and disappointment-a foul-mouthed, melancholic rabble-rouser who painted her nails black but also loved comedy, often laughing so hard with her friends that she had to leave her school classroom. Twenty-five years later, she's now an award-winning novelist, poet, and essayist, but she's still got an irrepressible laugh, acerbic wit, and singular powers of perception about the world around her. In these essays, Sánchez writes about everything from sex to white feminism to debilitating depression, revealing an interior life rich with ideas, self-awareness, and perception. Raunchy, insightful, unapologetic, and brutally honest, Crying in the Bathroom is Sánchez at her best-a book that will make you feel that post-confessional high that comes from talking for hours with your best friend." -- GoodreadsIluminando: al compás del silencio
Par Luis Felipe Passalacqua. 2020
"A book that takes us beyond any paradigm, dogma or charismatic authority, directing us towards an understanding of the pure…
Self. Between stories, inspiring reflections and revelations, we are immersed in a sea of possibilities for our evolution and freedom as people, as Souls. This interesting and unique compilation of ideas, narratives and affirmations takes us down shadowy paths, where we are encouraged to confront the learned and the intuitive, to visit ourselves without being sly. Luis Felipe, anxious to "see" new seeds germinate on the fertile surface of the conscience of all those who are not afraid to evolve, offers us several paths. His firm, palpable push invites us to explore with curiosity an infinite and permanent reality. A provocative invitation to enjoy his astonishing worldview and life perspective." -- Translation provided by NLSUna vez fui tú: Cómo Encontré Mi Voz Y Hoy Paso El Micrófono

journalist and was the first Latina to found a national independent non-profit newsroom in the United States. But before all that, she was a girl with big hair and even bigger dreams. Born in Mexico and raised in the vibrant neighborhood of Hyde Park, Chicago, Maria was always looking for ways to better understand the world around her and where she fit into it. Here, she combines stories from her life, beginning with her family's indelible experience of immigration all the way through the first time she heard her own voice on national radio, with truths about the United States' long and complicated relationship with immigrants.

Par Eduardo Lalo. 2019
"In |The Invisible Countries|, Eduardo Lalo undertakes a narrative and philosophical journey through Europe. With a hybrid discourse that nimbly…
accommodates the travel diary, the chronicle and the philosophical essay, the author develops an ex-centric vision that, far from the cliché of Third World victimization, undertakes a conceptual counter-conquest of the West. Thus, 'writing from invisibility', writing from the dark side of geography enhances a unique vision of the West, that Other whose myopia prevents it from recognizing 'the fiction of its invention, its laws and its grandiloquence'. In this text, the author forges new discursive possibilities for the inhabitants of 'peripheral' geographies to assume their cultural destiny freed from the gazes that often deform or deny them." -- Translation provided by NLSCuando digo no, me siento culpable
