About this listen
Una historia estremecedora y verídica sobre el exilio y la violencia por la autora de Delirio, la novela ganadora del Premio Alfaguara de Novela 2004.
Ésta es la historia estremecedora y verídica de un grupo de náufragos sometidos durante nueve años a las más duras pruebas de supervivencia, entre ellas una extraña guerra a muerte en la cual nunca llegan a ver la cara de sus enemigos. Ramón Arnaud, joven oficial del Ejército mexicano, acepta una misión en una isla desierta, no por casualidad llamada de la Pasión, y parte hacia allá junto a su esposa Alicia y once soldados con sus familias. Entre tanto, su país entra en el vértigo de una guerra civil, cae el Gobierno que los ha enviado y nadie vuelve a acordarse de ellos ni de la isla, donde quedan librados a su suerte.
Setenta años después de ocurridos estos hechos reales pero olvidados, Laura Restrepo rastreó su pista, entrevistando a los familiares de los supervivientes e investigando en los archivos de la Armada mexicana y de la estadounidense, en viejas cartas de amor, y en los decires y recuerdos de los vecinos de varios pueblos de México. El resultado es esta aventura fantasmagórica, surrealista y conmovedoramente heroica.
Escrita durante los años de exilio político de la autora en México, La Isla de la Pasión es una historia de lejanías y aislamiento pero también de la dulce posibilidad del regreso, y una metáfora de todas las formas posibles de exilio.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Para descubrir eso y más, aquí está Tan poca vida, una historia que recorre más de tres décadas de amistad en la vida de cuatro hombres que crecen juntos en Manhattan. Cuatro hombres que tienen que sobrevivir al fracaso y al éxito y que, a lo largo de los años, aprenden a sobreponerse a las crisis económicas, sociales y emocionales. Cuatro hombres que comparten una idea muy peculiar de la intimidad, una manera de estar juntos hecha de pocas palabras y muchos gestos. Cuatro hombres cuya relación la autora utiliza para realizar una minuciosa indagación de los límites de la naturaleza humana.

Desde una patria a punto de esfumarse, dos familias de distintas regiones de Prusia, los Schipper y los Hahlbrock, huyen, junto con su pueblo, en un éxodo suscitado por los horrores de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Prusia existía separada de Alemania aunque no de su fervor nacionalista ni de las bombas que extinguen una vida y perdonan otra.

It’s 2006. After a string of rejections from men who tell her they could never, ever, ever see her “that way,” awkward third-grade teacher Micaela Blei signs up for a mysterious course called “The Divine Feminine,” and feels like she might have found the key to the perfect life. Turns out if you’re an A student, you can get an A in anything–including men. Pretty soon she’s learning to "conjure" her desires with vision boards, flirtations, and even a daring jumbotron viewing party for her, ahem ... "divine center."
