Un legado invaluable que nos invita a seguir leyendo, escribiendo y soñando


Un papiro de tiempos de Alejandro Magno que une a un agitador serbio con un terrorista de la antigua Grecia, un semidiós que comparte sus aflicciones con las de un marido pusilánime, una cuadrilla de veteranos inválidos que se reivindican a punta de patas de palo o un gato que pasa de víctima a victimario... En el cuento cabe todo. Las posibilidades son tantas como los atributos de la vida misma, que no pierde ocasión para mostrar sus dotes ficcionales.


Desde los primeros textos influidos por Borges hasta las proezas vanguardistas y los relatos de ritmo policiaco o tono terrorífico, en La sangre de Medusa --recopilación de cuentos escritos entre 1956 y 1984 (dispersos hasta su edición corregida y definitiva publicada en 1990)-- la estela narrativa de José Emilio Pacheco brilla con fulgor universal.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


An invaluable legacy that invites us to keep reading, writing, and dreaming.


A papyrus from the time of Alexander the Great that connects a Serbian agitator with an ancient Greek terrorist, a demigod who shares his afflictions with those of a pusillanimous husband, a squad of disabled veterans who redeem themselves with their wooden legs, or a cat that goes from victim to perpetrator... In a short story, anything fits. The possibilities are as numerous as the attributes of life itself, which never misses an opportunity to showcase its fictional talents.


From the early texts influenced by Borges to the avant-garde feats and the stories with a crime rhythm or a terrifying tone, in La sangre de Medusa (The Blood of Medusa) --a collection of stories written between 1956 and 1984 (scattered until their corrected and definitive edition published in 1990)-- the narrative trail of José Emilio Pacheco shines with universal brilliance.

An excellent makeup staple to have in your collection
This is a rich, smooth, creamy SPF foundation that doesn't leave harsh lines on your face from not blending enough. It really blends in with your complexion. This product is also lovely because it has SPF in it, so you are providing sun protection to your face. A little bit goes a long way with this product, so it should last several months of normal use. An excellent makeup staple to have in your collection; one that not only protects your skin but that looks natural and soft.

if you’re a skeptic read this!
I am such a skeptic about this sort of stuff. I’ve used many different bb creams, concealers, and foundations that have fallen short of the mark and I was very very wary of purchasing this. Sometimes people overhype things and I end up spending money on things that don’t even work!! Long story short, I am 100% sold on it. As someone who has struggled with painful hormonal acne for several years now I am always scared of putting anything on my face, but this has not caused any break outs or dried me out any more than I already am from my acne topical cream. It blurs out all imperfections - and acne scars - and looks just like your skin. I can’t believe how well it works. I’ll never not purchase this as it’s now become essential for whenever I am wearing make up!! So yes, believe all the reviews because it’s the truth!!

This is not for fair / light skin
Honestly, my skin is not even that fair; it's more fair/light. This product is way too dark. I guess I will list the pros as well. It smells nice, the texture is nice, and it has good coverage. But I just can't wear it because it makes my face 3 shades darker.

Only product that doesn't settle into my pores!
I have so many liquid and powder foundations, you name it I've tried it! They all settle into the pores on my nose to the point where sometimes I almost feel it looks better without makeup. I'm not usually a bb cream person because I have quite oily skin, but this stuff is magic. It is very similar to a silicone based primer, but works better. It has surprisingly good coverage, I just add another layer to problem areas, and spot conceal if needed. However, this doesn't have the best staying power, but none of my foundations ever stay on anyway! So I set it with powder, either loose or even a light layer of a powder foundation and it looks very nice. Also sometimes if I want to wear a different foundation I'll use this just on my nose area sort of like a primer. I am 28 with oily skin, minor breakouts, and an nc20 with a lot of redness, which this evens out, for reference.

Great Substitute for Dr. Jart Dis-A-Pore
I did a ton of research after my tried and true Dr. Jart's Dis-A-Pore was discontinued. There are rumors that it will return but I'm reluctant to believe that. This product was recommended as a substitute after much research and I thought it was worth a shot. This is the real deal. I was a light-medium with dr Jart and I am the lighter version of this product. I love how it feels on my skin, it's like a matte velvet. I am definitely acne prone even as I approach 30 and redness occurs often. I'm very pleased with how natural and yet polished this product makes me feel and look. My only complaint would be that $30 is pretty steep for 1 ounce of the product. However, it works and that's what is most important to me! Update: I've had this product for almost 6 months and wear it almost every day - I would say a little goes a long way and that $30 is totally reasonable considering how long it has lasted!
