El brillo de las luciérnagas

Paul Pen · 2025

<b>El fenómeno editorial del año en redes sociales. Un <i>best-seller</i> internacional con más de 250.000 ejemplares vendidos que consagran a Paul Pen como el autor de <i>thriller</i> del momento.<br> <br> «Un regalo para los amantes de las historias llenas de tensión». --</b><i>Publisher's Weekly<br> <br></i>Tengo diez años y llevo toda mi vida en este sótano.<br> <br> Vivo en la oscuridad con mis padres, mi abuela, mi hermana y mi hermano. Todos están desfigurados por el fuego. Mi hermana lleva una máscara blanca para tapar sus quemaduras, porque papá dice que su cara podría asustarme.<br> <br> Me gusta mi cactus. Me gusta leer mi libro sobre insectos. Y tocar durante horas el único rayo de sol que se filtra por una rendija del techo. Pero desde que mi hermana tuvo al bebé, todos actúan de forma extraña. Creo que mienten sobre quién es el padre, sobre el hombre grillo que acecha por las noches, sobre lo que sucedió antes de que yo naciera, sobre por qué estamos aquí encerrados.<br> <br> Por lo menos tengo las luciérnagas. Llegaron hace unos días al sótano y las he guardado en un bote. Como dice mi abuela, no existe criatura más fascinante que aquella que es capaz de crear luz por sí misma. Esa luz me anima a conocer el mundo exterior, a escapar, a descubrir qué sucedió. Lo malo es que aquí todas las puertas están cerradas. Y no sé dónde voy a encontrar una salida...<br> <br> <b>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION</b><br> <br> <b>From bestselling Spanish author Paul Pen comes a haunting and hopeful tale of discovering light in even the darkest of places.</b><br> <br> For his whole life, the boy has lived underground, in a basement with his parents, grandmother, sister, and brother. Before he was born, his family was disfigured by a fire. His sister wears a white mask to cover her burns.<br> <br> He spends his hours with his cactus, reading his book on insects, or touching the one ray of sunlight that filters in through a crack in the ceiling. Ever since his sister had a baby, everyone's been acting very strangely. The boy begins to wonder why they never say who the father is, about what happened before his own birth, about why they're shut away.<br> <br> A few days ago, some fireflies arrived in the basement. His grandma said, <i>There's no creature more amazing than one that can make its own light.</i> That light makes the boy want to escape, to know the outside world. Problem is, all the doors are locked. And he doesn't know how to get out...

Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

Yuval Harari · 2018

Official U.S. edition with full color illustrations throughout.<br/>#1 New York Times Bestseller<br/>The Summer Reading Pick for President Barack Obama, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg, now available as a beautifully packaged paperback<br/>From a renowned historian comes a groundbreaking narrative of humanity’s creation and evolution—a #1 international bestseller—that explores the ways in which biology and history have defined us and enhanced our understanding of what it means to be “human.”<br/>One hundred thousand years ago, at least six different species of humans inhabited Earth. Yet today there is only one—homo sapiens. What happened to the others? And what may happen to us?<br/>Most books about the history of humanity pursue either a historical or a biological approach, but Dr. Yuval Noah Harari breaks the mold with this highly original book that begins about 70,000 years ago with the appearance of modern cognition. From examining the role evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise of empires, Sapiens integrates history and science to reconsider accepted narratives, connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and examine specific events within the context of larger ideas.<br/>Dr. Harari also compels us to look ahead, because over the last few decades humans have begun to bend laws of natural selection that have governed life for the past four billion years. We are acquiring the ability to design not only the world around us, but also ourselves. Where is this leading us, and what do we want to become?<br/>Featuring 27 photographs, 6 maps, and 25 illustrations/diagrams, this provocative and insightful work is sure to spark debate and is essential reading for aficionados of Jared Diamond, James Gleick, Matt Ridley, Robert Wright, and Sharon Moalem.
