"This important new study will appeal to Almodovar's devotees and to film students alike, with its chronological examination of the director's career. It sheds light on each individual film, demonstrates the connections between one movie and another and examines the director's progression in terms of genre, style and cinematic technique to reveal Almodovar's growing mastery of his art."--BOOK JACKET.
It’s a book that women talk to their girlfriends about, and a book they’d like their lovers to read. It’s an “intellectually sexy experience” that lyrically, wittily and provocatively explores women’s history of romantic obsession through the telling and deconstruction of a passionate love affair.
The most handsome and rakish Viscount Lucas Merewether, wont even bother to choose his own bride to beget an heir. After all, at all costs he wishes no emotional involvement with any woman. So he sanctions his father, the Earl of Shrewsbury, to choose his bride to be. His plan for a marriage seems boring enough considering his betroth has been cloistered in a convent for ten years. However, hes about to find out that shes no angel. There is nothing boring about being married to the half Spanish Lady Isabel De Carballo. The young lady has devised her own agenda after accepting the offer of marriage. The multifarious plan calls for some desperate measures. To set herself to the task, she must go beyond seduction, a tall order for a maid untouched by man. But she must succeed, for shes after much more than his title and fortune, much more than the pleasures his body pledges to generate, shes after the very thing he fears the most, the conquest of his soul. Married to a rake brings about many twists. And the story is more than a simple romance. There is intrigue, an abduction that takes Lucas into a pirates cove and even murder. And throughout the turmoil, Isabel ignites within him a fire more intense than anything he has ever encountered before in all his experienced years. It excites him beyond words and the game of seduction he has entered, may soon render him lost in the essence of her desire.

Offering a commentary on Pedro Almodovar, who has become a preeminent force in modern cinema and by far the best known Spanish filmmaker among English-speaking audiences, this work follows Almodovar's career chronologically and understands the films' increasing complexity in terms of the director's central themes."
AlmodOvar is Spain's most successful and controversial director, representing a unique blend of art-house auteur and popular film-maker. His films, with their mix of Hollywood and European styles and of popular melodrama and comedy, have been attracting growing international audiences since the success of Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. A Spanish Labyrinth is a much needed, clear, and comprehensive introduction to the films of AlmodOvar, investigating the cultural and national contexts for his work, issues of gender, sexuality, stars, genre, visual style, music, and much more. It is the ideal companion to AlmodOvar for students of film and Hispanic Studies, as well as those generally interested in film and Spanish culture.

The long-awaited new novel from the author of the global bestseller and modern classic, The Shadow of the Wind. As a child, Daniel Sempere discovered among the passageways of the Cemetery of Forgotten Books an extraordinary novel that would change the course of his life. Now a young man in the Barcelona of the late 1950s, Daniel runs the Sempere & Sons bookshop and enjoys a seemingly fulfilling life with his loving wife and son. Yet the mystery surrounding the death of his mother continues to plague his soul despite the moving efforts of his wife Bea and his faithful friend Fermín to save him. Just when Daniel believes he is close to solving this enigma, a conspiracy more sinister than he could have imagined spreads its tentacles from the hellish regime. That is when Alicia Gris appears, a soul born out of the nightmare of the war. She is the one who will lead Daniel to the edge of the abyss and reveal the secret history of his family, although at a terrifying price. The Labyrinth of the Spirits is an electrifying tale of passion, intrigue and adventure. Within its haunting pages Carlos Ruiz Zafón masterfully weaves together plots and subplots in an intricate and intensely imagined homage to books, the art of storytelling and that magical bridge between literature and our lives. 'For the first time in 20 years or so as a book reviewer, I am tempted to dust off the old superlatives and event to employ some particularly vulgar clichés from the repertoire of publishers' blurbs. My colleagues may be shocked, but I don't care, I can't help myself, here goes. The Shadow of the Wind is a triumph of the storyteller's art. I couldn't put it down. Enchanting, hilarious and heartbreaking, this book will change your life. Carlos Ruiz Zafón has done that exceedingly rare thing - he has produced, in his first novel, a popular masterpiece, an instant classic' Daily Telegraph
