About this listen
Estos catorce relatos que Kafka publicó en 1920 reúnen narraciones visionarias cuyos protagonistas—el médico que acude al lecho de un paciente una noche de tormenta, el artesano cuya ciudad ha sido invadida por una temible tribu nómada, el mensajero imperial que jamás llegará a su destino—son hijos de una época en que la vida ha quedado entregada a una lógica impenetrable y la comprensión del mundo resulta inconcebible. Si estos relatos nos siguen atrapando y ejerciendo, como señaló Hannah Arendt, "una fascinación tan profunda y duradera que de pronto una experiencia cualquiera nos revela su sentido" es porque al cabo de un siglo aún describen nuestro tiempo.

Story
"Crimen y castigo" es un profundo análisis psicológico de su protagonista, el joven estudiante Raskólnikov, cuya firme creencia en que los fines humanitarios justifican la maldad le conduce al asesinato de una usurera. Pero, desde que comete el crimen, la culpabilidad será una pesadilla constante con la que el estudiante será incapaz de convivir. De una manera magistral relata el sufrimiento, los estados de confusión, los sueños y los delirios del protagonista. Así como la redención de un criminal a través del amor.

La novela más leída de Philip K. Dick, inspiración de Blade Runner. En el año 2021 la guerra mundial ha exterminado a millones de personas. Los supervivientes codician cualquier criatura viva, y aquellos que no pueden permitirse pagar por ellas se ven obligados a adquirir réplicas increíblemente realistas. Las empresas fabrican incluso seres humanos. Rick Deckard es un cazarrecompensas cuyo trabajo es encontrar androides rebeldes y retirarlos, pero la tarea no será tan sencilla cuando tenga que enfrentarse a los nuevos modelos Nexus-6, prácticamente indistinguibles de los seres humanos.

Partiendo de la célebre meditación de John Donne, Nuccio Ordine amplía su "biblioteca ideal" invitándonos a leer—y a releer—más páginas escogidas de la literatura universal. Convencido de que una cita brillante puede despertar la curiosidad del lector y animarlo a leer la obra de la que procede, Ordine continúa su defensa de los clásicos, demostrando que la literatura es fundamental para fomentar el entendimiento y la compasión entre las personas.

Edición revisada del clásico Silmarillion del gran J. R. R. Tolkien.

Story
"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
Francia y la poesía fueron los primeros grandes amores de Stefan Zweig, que dedicó una buena parte de su obra a sacar de su «aparente oscuridad» a los genios de la creación y contagiar así sus pasiones a los lectores. A petición de la editorial berlinesa Schuster & Loeffler, el joven escritor compuso esta breve monografía sobre Paul Verlaine, su primer ensayo biográfico. Esta pequeña joya publicada en 1 9 0 5, que incluye traducciones de algunos de los poemas más emblemáticos del poeta, inauguró en la carrera de Zweig un género literario en el que desplegaría todo su talento y sensibilidad.

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.
