Paperback. Condición: Good. Poetic and magical . Astur's language is meticulous and vivid.--AsymptoteA breathtaking literary crime novel about family conflict in the Spanish countryside. Marcelino lives alone on his parents' farm, set deep in the beautiful but impoverished reaches of northern Spain. It's the place where he grew up, the place where he doted on his baby brother, the place where he protected his mother from their father's drunken rages. But when Marcelino's brother tricks him out of his house and land, a moment of anger sparks a chain of events that can't be reversed. Marcelino flees to the wild peaks of rural Asturias, becoming a cult hero as he evades the authorities. Into this, author Manuel Astur interweaves family tales and fables about the sun and the moon, about death and love, and offers glimpses into the lives of other villagers and the history of their community. Astur's poetic language and seamless blend of lyricism with the grotesque renders this book a treasure for the reader. Of Saints and Miracles is a sensuous portrayal of an outcast's struggle to survive in a chaotic world of both tragedy and magical splendor. …

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing.

Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. «Hay un instante en los serenos ocasos de verano en que cualquiera diría que los objetos brillan, como si devolvieran parte de la generosa luz que recibieron a lo largo del día. Era entonces cuando Marcelino dejaba lo que estuviera haciendo, se incorporaba, se pasaba el dorso de la mano por la frente y contemplaba el valle a sus pies. Todo relucía y resonaba como una campana de luz dorada. También aquel ocaso de julio Marcelino se detuvo y contempló. La casa, el hórreo, el carro, todo resplandecía recortado contra el cielo azul profundo donde el primer lucero comenzaba a anunciar la nueva era. Todo menos la gran mancha de sangre en el serrín y el cuerpo de su hermano. Pero lo cierto es que no había querido hacerle daño». Esta bella y sorprendente novela es como un espejo donde nos reflejamos todos. El lector, sea de ciudad o de campo, puede asomarse a un mundo mítico, en el que la Historia es solo otra fábula que se cuenta junto al fuego, y limpiar en ella su mirada hasta dejarla tan clara como la de su protagonista. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Un año después de la muerte de su padre, Manuel Astur emprendió un viaje que lo llevaría a recorrer Italia de norte a sur, sumándose así a la larga tradición de escritores que documentaron sus travesías por el bel paese que ofrece al viajero, al cabo de los siglos, estampas imperecederas de una belleza extraordinaria y lo enfrenta así a la fugacidad de su periplo vital. Astur usa la escritura como medio para ahondar en su pasado familiar, para aprender de los grandes maestros que recorrieron el mismo camino antes que él, para reconciliarse con su dolor y sus temores más profundos, para celebrar a su padre y, a fin de cuentas, para conciliar los instantes de mayor felicidad y asombro con la melancolía y el duelo. Un libro sobre el amor, la pérdida y el poder de la palabra como fuente de sentido profundamente conmovedor, bello y certero. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Los li?mpidos versos de Manuel Astur, reminiscentes de la obra de Walt Whitman y Mary Oliver, pero tambie?n de la poesi?a cla?sica china, son un estremecido canto a la vida en que el mundo natural ejerce a un tiempo de ca?lido refugio e inevitable recordatorio de nuestra finitud. Destellos exo?genos de una cruel belleza traen ecos del pasado al poeta, pero tambie?n vislumbres de una serenidad que lo reconcilia con la amarga cai?da del fruto siempre verde de la vida. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
