All Fours by Miranda July

All Fours: A Novel

$14.99

All Fours: A Novel by Miranda July has been celebrated as a daring, hilarious, and deeply human exploration of a midlife awakening. Critics praise the novel for its unflinching portrayal of desire, creativity, and the reinvention of a woman’s life at 45, blending humor with profound vulnerability. With her signature wit and curiosity about human intimacy, July crafts a bold narrative about a semi-famous artist who impulsively embarks on an unconventional journey of self-discovery.

Described as «riveting» by Vogue and «possessive» by The Cut, the book captures the raw complexities of marriage, sexuality, and aging. Critics highlight its balance of absurdity and emotional depth, calling it funny, sexy, and irreverent (PureWow). The Washington Post likens it to a modern «Portnoy’s Complaint» for its fearless dive into perimenopausal experiences, while The New York Times lauds it as a cultural touchstone for discussions on freedom and desire.

Through its unapologetically intimate and boundary-pushing storytelling, All Fours has resonated widely, earning a place as a must-read for its transformative take on middle-aged womanhood.

Archipiélago GULAG: Volumen 1-2-3

¡Oferta! El precio original era: $20.99.El precio actual es: $4.99.

El libro Archipiélago GULAG de Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn se presenta como un testimonio monumental que desentraña las entrañas del sistema represivo soviético. Este trabajo combina una rigurosa investigación histórica con un relato personal que da voz a las innumerables víctimas de los campos de trabajo forzado en la URSS. La narrativa se caracteriza por su crudeza, mostrando sin filtros las inhumanas condiciones que miles soportaron durante décadas.

Por medio de un estilo literario que oscila entre el ensayo político y la crónica autobiográfica, Solzhenitsyn logra capturar la magnitud del terror. Los episodios relatados no solo denuncian el abuso del poder estatal, sino que también revelan los mecanismos de control psicológico que perpetuaron el sistema. A través de descripciones detalladas y testimonios recopilados, el autor transmite el sufrimiento de los prisioneros, al tiempo que reflexiona sobre la naturaleza del mal y la resistencia humana.

Aunque la obra puede resultar densa por su extensión y la profundidad de sus análisis, cada página aporta una perspectiva valiosa para comprender el impacto de las políticas totalitarias. La valentía del escritor al abordar un tema tan sensible en su contexto histórico es incuestionable, pues no solo expone los crímenes de su país, sino que también pone en riesgo su vida al hacerlo.

El uso magistral del lenguaje otorga a la obra una fuerza arrolladora, dejando una impresión indeleble en quienes se enfrentan a sus páginas. Archipiélago GULAG no es solo un libro de historia, sino también un llamado a la reflexión sobre los peligros de la deshumanización y la indiferencia colectiva. Sin duda, representa una contribución ineludible para aquellos interesados en entender los horrores del siglo XX desde una perspectiva profundamente humana.

City of Fallen Angels

I enjoyed this book. I particularly enjoyed the fact that it was a stand alone book and did not end with a cliff hanger like so many of today’s books do. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.
