We will have to wait until the end of the summer to give a good review of the new Stephen King. One of those stories that take up the old paths of the first King between paranormal and sinister events, or both things perfectly combined in an imaginary where everything has a place towards the most plausible...
If there is an author pending further follow-up by publishers in Spain, that is Jennifer Egan. It is also true that in the scoring of some of her works that have come down to us, the risk of a great writer turned at times into sophistication and ...
After the presentation of his book Casas y graves, Bernardo Atxaga announced that he was leaving the novel. As if I could do it… I'm sure more books will arrive soon. And perhaps someone will change their name to the surprise of discovering themselves once again abounding in the stages of the ...
Write about the most angular aspects of our society. Telling from the edges of a supposedly oval world to end up discovering those hurtful surfaces of our reality. Roberto Saviano combines his literary vocation with his journalistic will. And in the mix we enjoy an extremely controversial author who addresses the ...
The History of Literature houses some curious coincidences, the best known being the synchronicity in deaths (they must have been only hours away) between the two universal writers: Cervantes and Shakespeare.

The English writer Zadie Smith is an author determined to polish her plots essentially from her characters. Because each of his novels is a kind of complete theatricalization, naturalized in rich dialogues and reflections made soliloquies. Interventions that set the scene and bring reality to be exhibited, ...
Drawing on a kind of fascination, the English author Sophia Bennett makes Queen Elizabeth II a most unexpected protagonist for her police plots with an aftertaste of the sobriety of the fabrics of Agatha Christie brought to the XNUMXst century. A mix between the classic and the current...
Every time the world of indie publishing escapes me more. But it is curious how authors subscribed to the independent roll from here and there are slipping into the favorites of readers also from half the world. The Kendra Elliot thing is already outlined as a business today …
In the prose of the Peruvian Gustavo Rodríguez, recently awarded the 2023 Alfaguara Novel Award, we can find a bit of everything. A Pandora's box, a catchall or even a bazaar of lost words for second-hand lovers. Existentialism from the allegorical to the alienating. Realism…
