Un libro único

«La gran dibujante y contadora de historias que es Ilu Ros aborda ahora la vida y obra de Federico García Lorca. Su Federico está lleno de pasión, arte, vida y poesía. Un fino y riguroso trabajo documental que ilustra con su trazo libre, evocador, personalísimo. Una joya.»-Elvira Lindo

«Sabemos mucho de él, pero ¿cómo imaginarnos a Federico? Haciendo que las palabras de sus labios regresen al interior de sus sentimientos y sus razones. Eso es lo que hace Ilu Ros. Propone una cita con García Lorca que es un diálogo generacional, una mirada del presente al pasado y del pasado al presente. La palabra hoy lleva en su interior un mundo ilustrado.»-Luis García Montero

Federico solo hay uno. No le hacen falta apellidos. Un nombre que reconocen tanto niños como adultos, que suena a duende, a cante jondo y a romance popular, pero también a la vanguardia más rompedora. Un nombre que encarna la alegría y las sombras de España, la época más brillante de nuestra cultura desde la Edad de Oro, pero también la guerra y la vergüenza de un pueblo que nunca podrá perdonarse la muerte del poeta que más lo representaba.

En este libro escuchamos las voces de aquellos que lo conocieron, desde su familia cercana hasta la legión de amigos y amigas que lo frecuentaron en sus años granadinos, en las juergas líricas de la Residencia de Estudiantes o a lo largo de su intensa vida literaria. Y, por supuesto, la suya propia: la del poeta, la del dramaturgo, la del conferenciante, con la claridad de unas ideas que hoy tienen la misma fuerza, y, por n, la voz desnuda del hijo, del hermano y del amante enamorado. Ilu Ros fusiona voces y palabras con sus ilustraciones, que nos arrastran como la magnética personalidad de Federico García Lorca: icono de generaciones pasadas, presentes y futuras.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A unique book.

"The great artist and storyteller Ilu Ros addresses the life and work of Federico García Lorca. Her Federico is full of passion, art, life, and poetry. It is a fine and rigorous documentary work, illustrated with her free, evocative, and very personal style. It's a jewel." --Elvira Lindo

"We know much about him. But how do we create a picture of Federico? By making the words from his lips return to the depths of his emotions and motives. This is what Ilu Ros does. She schedules a date with García Lorca, a generational dialogue, an insight from the present to the past, and from the past to the present. The word 'today' carries an illustrated world inside." --Luis García Montero

There is only one Federico. He doesn't need any last names. It is a name known to both children and adults alike. A name that carries the sound of duende, of cante jondo, of a romance of the people, but that is also at the most game-changing avantgarde. A name that embodies the joys and shadows of Spain, the most brilliant time in our culture since the golden age, as well as the war and the shame of a people that will never forgive itself for the death of its most distinctive poet.

Within these pages we hear the voices of those who knew him, his closest relatives and the legion of friends that visited him during his years in Granada, in the lyric parties at the Students Residence, or throughout his intense literary life. And of course, his own voice, the voice of the poet, of the playwright, of the speaker, with ideas so clear, and just as strong today. It is the voice of the son, the brother, the lover. Ilu Ros blends voices and words with her illustrations, pulling at us just like Federico García Lorca's magnetic personality, icon of generations past, present, and future.

definitive and final statement
This is the definitive and final statement on marxian dialectical materialism. The best concise exposition that has been written on the subject.

I'd recommend it, especially at this give-away-price
As a sociologist, I was always interested as to how the USSR could morph what Marx considered communalism networked by a shallow, weak, centralized and supposedly representative government into what I would considered an extremest left-wing oligarchy (most fashionably consider it right-wing despite how it was sold and supported by the people that allowed it- so much for cultural relativity and in context social analysis!). If Stalin actually wrote these pieces (or more commonly among dictators farmed it out to a frightened academic ghostwriter) then it could help explain why Marx disassociated himself with much of the Marxist movement toward the end of his life. It is a logically written and well informed book - worth the read if you are into the sociology of politics, philosophy of politics or the history of politics. I'd recommend it, especially at this give-away-price!

Good book, mediocre edition
Format: Paperback
This review pertains to the quality of this edition's editing and construction, rather than the content of the book itself. Rest assured that the text itself remains a valuable piece of introductory theory. The book is fairly well constructed, with paper and a binding that is sturdy enough for general use. However, my copy had several manufacturing errors including folded over pages being stuck into the binding. In addition, there are several misspelled words throughout the text and some obvious typos (missing letters, incorrect capitalization and punctuation) that did not majorly impact the readability of the text, but were, nevertheless, annoying. Considering the low price of this edition the manufacturing errors are hardly a big deal, but I would have preferred the text itself to have been treated with more care and respect while being prepared for printing.

thoughts on Xi Jinping
Format: Kindle
This book was highly organized and very easy to comprehend. I have formed a much better understanding of Xi Jinping and where he is taking China. Although I feel he has been thoughtful and successful in some areas such as improving China economically, I don’t feel his autocratic approach will succeed in the long run when more Chinese people will demand to be heard. Just as Mao thought didn’t outlast Mao, Xi thought will not outlast Xi.
