Publisher's summary
Una vez más, el autor nos hace disfrutar de la historia de México conociendo sus entresijos carnales y sus pasiones.
«Una prueba para demostrar que no me dejé impresionar por los comentarios adversos ni me importó que me llamaran irreverente, entre otros calificativos, por haberme atrevido a bajar de sus respectivos pedestales a los grandes protagonistas de la historia de México y por exhibirlos como figuras de carne y hueso con sus fortalezas y debilidades [...] Aquí está Arrebatos carnales II.»
Francisco Martín Moreno regresa con grandes hombres y mujeres de la historia y sus amores. Para abrir apetito comienza con la Güera Rodríguez, mujer hermosa y estratega audaz, en amoríos con Iturbide; también nos lleva de la mano por la alcoba de Diego Rivera y sus múltiples amantes, mientras vemos de perfil a una Frida Kahlo rompiendo moldes; otra mirada dura de las pasiones es la de Isabel Motecuhzoma, hija del gran Motecuhzoma Xocoyotzin, para seguir con la entereza de doña Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez y cerrar, como una gran cereza, con los arrebatos de don Lázaro Cárdenas.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Al publicar México negro, nunca imaginé que, a 35 años de distancia, miles de lectores seguirían leyéndolo. Tampoco supuse la catástrofe que significaría la burocratización de la energía en México: Pemex es la única compañía petrolera quebrada en el mundo. Su insolvencia financiera puede destruir el crédito público de México. Ha sido, con algunas excepciones, una cantera de bandidos. ¿De qué les ha servido la expropiación petrolera de 1938 a más de 50 millones de mexicanos sepultados, hoy en día, en la pobreza?

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

On September 26, 2020, Michael was in a great mood. He’d recently returned home to Oklahoma after years in the military. He’d bought a house and had a job teaching and coaching basketball at the local high school. But that night, Michael’s life would turn upside down. Around two o’clock in the morning, he heard people banging on the doors and windows of his home. He called 911 for help. This is the story of what happened next, and why. To understand it, we have to go back to the Trail of Tears that the Five Tribes were forced to walk.
