Story
Ovid's sensuous and witty poetry brings together a dazzling array of mythological tales, ingeniously linked by the idea of transformation - often as a result of love or lust - where men and women find themselves magically changed into new and sometimes extraordinary beings. Beginning with the creation of the world and ending with the deification of Augustus, Ovid interweaves many of the best-known myths and legends of Ancient Greece and Rome, including Daedalus and Icarus, Pyramus and Thisbe, Pygmalion, Perseus and Andromeda, and the fall of Troy.

Story
Los dos volúmenes que componen el poema épico Martín Fierro son la culminación del género gauchesco y el máximo exponente de la literatura argentina a nivel mundial. A través de la narración de las peripecias del héroe - el gaucho Fierro, uno de los personajes más vitales, brutales y contradictorios de las letras nacionales - José Hernández pone en evidencia la cruda realidad a la que se veían enfrentados los hombres del siglo XIX enviados a la frontera a luchar contra los indios y denuncia los abusos de poder por parte de un Estado corrupto y arbitrario.

Story
Rebel Souls is the first book ever written about the colorful group of artists - regulars at Pfaff's Saloon in Manhattan - rightly considered America's original Bohemians. Besides a young Whitman, the circle included actor Edwin Booth; trailblazing stand–up comic Artemus Ward; psychedelic drug pioneer and author Fitz Hugh Ludlow; and brazen performer Adah Menken, famous for her Naked Lady routine. Central to their times, the artists managed to forge connections with Ralph Waldo Emerson, Mark Twain, and even Abraham Lincoln.

Story
When Christopher was six, the poems of Milne were always on hand to reassure him that other children were just as puzzled and naughty and silly as he was, and that grown-ups could be even sillier. When he turned 60, he decided it was high time there was an equally reassuring volume for those of his generation who were not only more confused than ever but were losing their teeth, their hair and, all too often, their car keys.

Story
Cuando el mundo retrocede, la rima asoma. Cuando la vida aprieta, los versos repuntan. Así podría definirse el legado de Gloria Fuertes, poeta necesaria del amor, la injusticia, el anhelo y la soledad. Al cumplirse el centenario de su nacimiento, en pleno auge de la poesía en las redes, reivindicamos a una mujer única. En esta antología libre se reúne una amplia muestra de su producción poética para adultos, tan perenne como injustamente olvidada, y para niños, que le valió en las últimas décadas el clamor popular pero quizá no el crítico.

Story
El gaucho es el alma de la Pampa Argentina. Noble y valiente sin comparación, el gaucho merodea por la pampa, esclavo de nadie más que su deseo por explorar y vivir plenamente en el campo argentino. Martín Fierro era un gaucho así, pero que sería pronto puesto a prueba por las vueltas de la vida. Fue forzado a luchar por la milicia argentina contra los nativos de las tierras, aguantando malos tratos, hambre y negación a su sueldo y ahora se ve desilusionado por un gobierno que no lo quiere.

Story
From the Pen of an Aquarian is a selection of poems that have been written based on personal experiences. As the cover indicates, there is love, hope and darker moments. These poems express the many and varied emotions love can deliver in our human form. There is love for the sea and the unrivaled contentment single handed sailing can bring. Hope is visited in the survival of a Twin Flame relationship, with all of its twists and turns and eventual outcome. Conquering alcohol and bouts of debilitating depression, bring out those darker moments.

Story
"El gaucho Martín Fierro" es una obra capital de la literatura argentina y de la llamada literatura gauchesca, subgénero que describe, ensalza y defiende el modo de vida de los gauchos argentinos. Escrita en verso, se articula en torno a la vida del gaucho Martín Fierro, un matrero o fuera de la ley, de carácter heroico y sacrificado. La obra, de fuerte trasfondo político, supone una dura crítica contra el gobierno de la época por sus reclutamientos forzosos a los gauchos para las luchas contra los indígenas en los terrenos fronterizos.

Story
En 1947 apareció en la revista Trabajos y Días un poema titulado "La barca nevada". Lo firmaba Carmiña Martín Gaite, y suponía el debut de quien buscaba aún su voz, e incluso su nombre. Luego se sucederían los libros en otros géneros, pero Carmen Martín Gaite mantuvo siempre su fidelidad a la poesía. Siguió escribiéndola —así lo demuestran sus cuadernos—, publicándola —con las ediciones ampliadas de A rachas— y recitándola, en cafés y centros culturales, en la grabación digirida por Alberto Pérez que aquí recuperamos.

Story
"DIE FINSTERNIS DER STERNE" ist eine Science Fiction-Buchreihe, die auf 15 Bände in 3 Staffeln angelegt ist. In jeder Staffel, die aus 5 Büchern besteht, gibt es einen Band, der ein wenig aus der Reihe fällt, andere Wege geht, sich von der Haupthandlung löst und die Perspektive wechselt, um die Galaxis von einem anderen Standpunkt zu zeigen. "Der Klon macht die Musik" ist der erste dieser Bände – und er ist gereimt. Im Rahmen der Reihe wäre dies ein Musical... oder eigentlich eher eine Oper, da es keine Dialoge gibt, die nicht gereimt sind. Oder, in dem Fall, nicht gesungen werden.

La vuelta de Martín Fierro es un audio libro gauchesco argentino, escrito en verso por José Hernández en 1879. Constituye la secuela de El Gaucho Martín Fierro, escrito en 1872. Ambos libros han sido considerados como libro nacional de la Argentina, bajo el título genérico de "Martín Fierro." En "La vuelta", Martín Fierro, quien se había mostrado rebelde en la primera parte y convertido en gaucho matrero (fuera de la ley), aparece más reflexivo y moderado, a la vez que el audio libro se vuelca a la historia de sus hijos.
