Paperback. Condición: Good. In her personal / poetic essay Arqueología de un cisne, Colombian writer Juliana Rozo traces two paths where beauty, trauma and violence intersect in works of art, family lore and historical events in Colombia. One of these paths goes historically through mythological, literary and artistic places in which the swan has had a relevance: starting with the artist Hilma Af Klint, the writer Marcel Proust, and the "Swan Lake," to Latin American musical references such as Luis Alberto Spinetta and a Colombian film, Cóndores no entierran todos los días by Francisco Norden. The other path immerses the reader in the intimate and poetic relationship that the writer finds in the figure of the swan and the porous boundary between beauty and violence. Smol Books contributed the Spanish text and illustrations for the bilingual edition of Arqueología de un cisne. Smol Books is an independent publishing house that specializes in short stories by authors who break literary, thematic, formal, and linguistic boundaries in experimental fiction. …

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. An Argentine exile living in Madrid travels to recover her lost childhood in Buenos Aires. A young man in Poland makes the voyage to the Americas, only to end up in the wrong hemisphere. A newly wed bride leaves her husband to embark on a European odyssey of her own. A mammoth cub ventures out for his first hunt, only to end up buried under the ice. In The Book of Mistaken Journeys, winner of the 2012 Premio Setenil for best short-story collection in Spain, Clara Obligado takes the reader on her own journey through time and space: from the prehistoric era to the 21st century, from Old World to New World and back again. The characters in The Book of Mistaken Journeys embark on a journey in which chance guides their individual stories as they build toward an overarching trajectory. Along an unnerving narrative spiral, these eleven intertwined stories speak to exile, migration, and the search for an alternative future. Read alone, each story conveys an individual story of love, loss and longing. Read together, they intertwine and spiral into a greater narrative, revealing the unexpected ways in which humans relate to one another. These eleven stories address exile, migration, and the search for an alternative future. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Winner, 2025 Spain-USA Foundation Translation Award, American Literary Translators AssociationManuela left Colombia a year ago for a coastal town in the Basque region of Spain with her nine-year-old son, Juan Camilo, who has not said a word since they arrived. She is now working as a housekeeper-companion to Irene, a well-known dress designer left blind as the result of an accident. Gradually, as the two women exchange their stories, cope with the boys silence, and forge a strong friendship, the traumatic events that changed all of their lives emerge, with unexpected consequences. Despite the inherent dangers, Irene continues to swim alone in the ocean each day, attached to a harness of her own making, because theres more to life than just living. Meanwhile, Manuela and her son each strive to overcome their fears and past experiences so they can begin their lives afresh in their new home, looking to the future rather than the past.Cruzar el agua / Crossing Waters is a powerful reflection on the need to avoid nostalgia, to move forward, to grow and adapt to new situations and environments. Such impetus dredges up critical elements from the past of each of the three main characters that cannot be suppressed. This adds a powerful dimension to the novel. As in other works by Luisa Etxenike, the images are haunting, and the language is poetic, starkly simple, and meticulously chosen to reflect the different voices and registers of her characters. A confrontation between human nature on the one hand and the forces of nature on the other is ever-present, and the relevant issues Etxenike explores in her prose leave her reader with much to consider, and also to relish. Luisa Etxenike's Crossing Waters depicts a Colombian woman and her son finding their way in the Spanish Basque country.
