Gersam Tüchler Noguera, mi padre, fue un hombre muy diferente a todos. Y diría que nadie lo comprendía, no estaba en su grupo. Todo él, la forma de vestir, roce social, intelectual, y su religión judía, no era parte del grupo donde él residía. Nunca le interesó el dinero, no tomaba licor ni cerveza, ni siquiera vino como los europeos. Prefería estar solo leyendo, escribiendo, escuchando música clásica: Chopin, Kachaturian, Rachmaninoff, Beethoven, ect.ect. No sabía tocar piano, pero tenía un piano Wurlizter donde mi hermano, hermana y yo, aprendimos. Tenía poco amigos, solo a dos que hablaban de religión. No visita a nadie, pero él era muy visitado por personas interesadas en visitar su museo, biblioteca, discoteca y anticuario. La señora Clementina Rivas reportera del Diario La Prensa cuenta en su reporte que mi padre poseía alrededor de 600 objetos antiguos, incluyendo adornos Judíos. Unos colegas como el Dr. Zuñiga lo visitaban para consultarle sobre asuntos jurídicos. La gente de Managua decían que él era una excéntrico, raro, libre pensador, poeta, loco, y lo llamaban "El Doctor". No pudo terminar sus estudios universitarios por razones de política, Usaba un sello con el título de Dr. Inf. Gersam Tüchler Noguera. No tenía amigos, pero era muy visitado por personas para conocer su museo personal, así como su discoteca clásica, biblioteca con su selección de libros raros y revistas de toda clase; antiguos objetos judíos, sus candelabros de cristal de roca colgados del techo. Tenía una lava manos de mármol blanco en su mesa de madera Palo de Rosa. También un juego de lava manos y pichel de electroplata. Dedicado a la fotografía usando una cámara de 3 dimensiones (3 D), la única en Centro América. Según Clementina Rivas F. reportera del periódico La Prensa de Managua, mi padre vivía en una "manera envidiable con sus anticuario para olvidad su soledad". Pero después de un terremoto, y dos guerras civiles todo esto fue robado y destruido. Mi hermano Edgar, mi hermana Nena yo, nos sentimos muy orgulloso ser descendiente de él, y agradecemos todo la vida de sus enseñanzas, y consejos. A pesar de que tenía a veces mal carácter, reconocemos que a veces quizás no comprendimos sus buenas intenciones, pero nunca nos resentimos, lo amamos pues no olvidamos, que después de todo fue nuestro padre (q.e.p.d.)
Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. Maria Luisa Arroyo's GATHERING WORDS/RECOGIENDO PALABRAS gives a voice to the oppressed, the abused, and the forgotten. It speaks from battered women's shelters and from inside homes that hide domestic violence and child abuse. Laying bare the stark realities of life with phrases that are alternately elegant, blunt, and rich with vivid imagery, Arroyo writes with spine-tingling candor that does not allow us to deny the truth. Shaped by her family's background in Puerto Rican music, her poems, written mostly in English, are reminiscent of folksongs with their narrative storytelling and activist representation of the disenfranchised, disillusioned, and neglected. This is Arroyo's first full-length collection of poems.
“One of the really remarkable books of our day”—the story of the Roman emperor on which the award-winning BBC TV series was based (The New York Times). Once a rather bookish young man with a limp and a stammer, a man who spent most of his time trying to stay away from the danger and risk of the line of ascension, Claudius seemed an unlikely candidate for emperor. Yet, on the death of Caligula, Claudius finds himself next in line for the throne, and must stay alive as well as keep control. Drawing on the histories of Plutarch, Suetonius, and Tacitus, noted historian and classicist Robert Graves tells the story of the much-maligned Emperor Claudius with both skill and compassion. Weaving important themes throughout about the nature of freedom and safety possible in a monarchy, Graves’s Claudius is both more effective and more tragic than history typically remembers him. A bestselling novel and one of Graves’ most successful, I, Claudius has been adapted to television, film, theatre, and audio. “[A] legendary tale of Claudius . . . [A] gem of modern literature.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
An atmospheric and mysterious tale of lust and death, set in a crumbling Breton castle.
For more than three decades, Lucien ' one of the most notorious characters in the history of the novel ' has haunted the imaginations of readers around the world. Remarkably, the astounding protagonist of Gabrielle Wittkop's lyrical 1972 novella, The Necrophiliac, has never appeared in English until now. This new translation introduces readers to a masterpiece of French literature, striking not only for its astonishing subject matter but for the poetic beauty of the late author's subtle, intricate writing. Like the best writings of Edgar Allan Poe or Baudelaire, Wittkop's prose goes far beyond mere gothic horror to explore the melancholy in the loneliest depths of the human condition, forcing readers to confront their own mortality with an unprecedented intimacy.
The author of the international bestseller A Suitable Boy returns with a powerful and deeply romantic tale of two gifted musicians. Michael Holme is a violinist, a member of the successful Maggiore Quartet. He has long been haunted, though, by memories of the pianist he loved and left ten years earlier, Julia McNicholl. Now Julia, married and the mother of a small child, unexpectedly reenters his life and the romance flares up once more. Against the magical backdrop of Venice and Vienna, the two lovers confront the truth about themselves and their love, about the music that both unites and divides them, and about a devastating secret that Julia must finally reveal. With poetic, evocative writing and a brilliant portrait of the international music scene, An Equal Music confirms Vikram Seth as one of the world's finest and most enticing writers.

In "The Aeneid," Vergil's hero fights to claim the king's daughter, Lavinia, with whom he is destined to found an empire. Le Guin gives Lavinia a voice in a this novel set in the half-wild world of ancient Italy, when Rome was a muddy village near seven hills.
A lyrical celebration of storytelling, of childhood, and of the transformative power of music. Tracing a circular course that echoes Bach’s Goldberg Variations , Luis Sagasti’s second book to appear in English takes the guise of a musical scheherazade, recounting story after story, vibrating to celestial harmonies. From the music born of the sun to the music sent into space on the Voyager mission, from Rothko to rock music, from the composers of the concentration camps to a weeping room for Argentinian conscripts in the Falklands, A Musical Offering traverses the shifting sands of fiction and history.
