About this listen
Un clásico del feminismo y la lucha contra el racismo del siglo XX.
Esta es la historia de dos hermanas: Nettie, que ejerce como misionera en África, y Celie, que vive en el Sur de Estados Unidos, casada con un hombre al que odia y abrumada por la vergüenza de haber sido violada por quien cree que es su padre. A lo largo de treinta años ambas mantienen el recuerdo y la esperanza de reencontrarse y vuelcan sus sentimientos en unas cartas conmovedoras. Pero la dramática existencia de Celie cambiará cuando entre en su vida la amante de su marido, una extraordinaria mujer llama Shug Avery.
Alice Walker traza en esta ya clásica historia, narrada en formato epistolar, un crudo y sin embargo bello relato del abuso hacia las mujeres y la comunidad afroamericana en los Estados Unidos de la primera mitad del siglo XX. El relato de ambas hermanas, merecedor del Premio Pulitzery del National Book Award en 1983, se convierte en símbolo de una lucha que aún a día de hoy no hemos acabado de librar.
La crítica ha dicho...
«Una de las más talentosas escritoras estadounidenses.»

Newsweek

The New York Times Book Review
«El color púrpura sitúa a Walker a la altura de Faulkner.»

San Francisco Chronicle

La historia comienza a miles de años en el futuro, en un gran imperio galáctico dividido en cuasi-feudos controlados por familias nobles. La clave para el control del Imperio se encuentra en Arrakis, un planeta desértico también conocido como Dune. El protagonista de la historia es el joven Paul Atreides, heredero del ducado de la Casa de los Atreides. Su padre, Leto Atreides, recibe de pronto la orden de trasladarse a Arrakis, y Paul deberá enfrentarse, por un lado, al emperador y, por otro, a sus antiguos enemigos, la Casa de los Harkonnen.

Story
Todos los días friego la preciosa casa de los Winchester de arriba abajo. Recojo a su hija del colegio y preparo deliciosas comidas para toda la familia antes de subir a cenar sola en mi minúscula habitación del piso superior. Intento no prestar atención a Nina cuando lo ensucia todo simplemente para ver cómo lo limpio. A las extrañas mentiras que cuenta sobre su propia hija. A su marido, que cada día parece más abatido. Pero cuando miro a Andrew a los ojos, castaños, encantadores y llenos de dolor, no me resulta difícil imaginar cómo sería vivir en la piel de Nina.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
