Publisher's summary
Fernando Vallejo vuelve a la carga con una poderosa diatriba contra la clase política colombiana y lo que sucede en el mundo.
El memorialista loco de este libro sostiene que la democracia es el pernicioso sistema electoral de unos corruptos que van tras el botín del poder, pero que le permite por lo menos al ciudadano escoger entre el malo y el peor; que las patrias solo traen guerras; que las religiones han impedido el surgimiento de la moral y que por eso siguen existiendo los mataderos y nos seguimos comiendo a los animales; y que entre patrias y religiones han logrado que hoy por hoy estemos en un mundo embotellado y atestado pero eso sí, muy bien cimentado: sobre un arsenal nuclear. Tesis que el lector sensato rechazará como despropósitos, pero que le harán gracia dada la forma tan disparatada en que se han planteado.
Convertido en el más poderoso señor del país por un golpe militar que lo catapulta al mando supremo, le rebaja una buena parte de su población con una serie de happenings, como él los llama, dirigidos al fin que él considera el más noble: liberar a su patria, la empecinada Colombia, de sí misma.
De las memorias que escribió al abandonar el poder por su propia voluntad y cansancio, no quedó más que un legajo de papeluchos inconexos que le dejó a su sobrina, una editora de libros pornográficos y libertarios que medio los ordenó y les puso título.

Entre ironías, burlas, improperios, maldiciones, blasfemias, este librito sin pretensiones hará reír a muchos e iluminará a montones. Trata modestamente de apresar el cambio frenético que se ha apoderado del mundo. Su autor vive en la Luna y desde allá dispara. Es un francotirador lunático que abre fuego contra el que sea: presidentes, papas, reguetoneros, raperos, médicos... Y con especial delectación contra las reverendas madres, perpetuadoras de la especie, su blanco predilecto.

"Desconcertante, lista a inquietar a la crítica, está ya en los escaparates la primera novela de Juan Rulfo, Pedro Páramo, que transcurre en una serie de transposiciones oníricas, ahondando más allá de la muerte de sus personajes, que uno no sabe en qué momento son sueño, vida, fábula, verdad, pero a los que se les oye la voz al través de la perspicacia despiadada y certera de tan sin duda extraordinario escritor". Con estas palabras iniciaba Edmundo Valdés la primera reseña de Pedro Páramo, aparecida el 30 de marzo de 1955 y conservada por Juan Rulfo entre sus papeles.

Story
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.

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness.
