Embracing the full calendar year and a wide spectrum of reasons to gift knits, each project captures the season's essence through color scheme and project type, resulting in a well-rounded and unique book. Some patterns include simple non-knitting embellishments like embroidery, needle-felting, and crocheted edging options, offering additional appeal to makers. Bernard has a keen understanding of today's knitter and understands the desire to "make any project your own," and in turn, provides numerous ways to customize and personalize. |Knitted Gifts for All Seasons| is sure to be a book readers return to again and again for ideas, and to gift from continuously." -- Provided by publisherVolver a ser feliz: cambia tus pensamientos y realidad, y convierte tus intentos en triunfos

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.comBlack skin, white masks (Get political)
Par Frantz Fanon. 2008
"Few modern voices have had as profound an impact on the black identity and critical race theory as Frantz Fanon,…
and Black Skin, White Masks represents some of his most important work. Fanon's masterwork is now available in a new translation that updates its language for a new generation of readers. A major influence on civil rights, anti-colonial, and black consciousness movements around the world, Black Skin, White Masks is the unsurpassed study of the black psyche in a white world. Hailed for its scientific analysis and poetic grace when it was first published in 1952, the book remains a vital force today from one of the most important theorists of revolutionary struggle, colonialism, and racial difference in history." -- Provided by publisherQuebrantamiento: cuando Díos convíerte la presión en poder

Una canción inesperada: un testimonio bello y enriquecedor
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 publisherThe pregnancy project: a memoir
Par Gaby Rodriguez. 2012
"In this book, Rodriguez shares her experience growing up in the shadow of low expectations, reveals how she was able…
to fake her own pregnancy, and reveals all that she learned from the experience. But more than that, Gaby's story is about fighting stereotypes, and how one girl found the strength to come out from the shadow of low expectations to forge a bright future for herself." -- 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 NLSGamer girls: 25 women who built the video game industry
