Crimen y Castigo
Fiódor Dostoyevski • 1866
El joven Rodión Raskólnikov, antiguo estudiante, arrastra una existencia precaria en San Petersburgo. Cuando recibe una carta anunciándole la visita de su madre y su hermana en relación con los súbitos planes de boda de esta última, las fantasías de acabar con sus problemas a través del asesinato de la vieja prestamista a la cual suele recurrir van tomando cuerpo en su voluntad...<br/>Crimen y castigo (1866) es posiblemente la obra más lograda del autor. En ella, sirviéndose de una trama y de unos personajes que reúnen los mejores ingredientes de la novela del siglo XIX, se plantea el problema de la justificación o no de los actos, de la conciencia y de la culpa.<br/>Fiódor Dostoyevski (1821-1881) es, junto con Lev Tolstói, el gran novelista ruso del siglo XIX. Su vida y su creación literaria sufrieron un cambio radical después de que en 1849 fuera detenido y condenado a muerte, pena que se le conmutó en el último instante, por sus actividades contra el zar. Alianza Editorial tiene publicada prácticamente toda su obra.<br/>CENTENARIO DOSTOYEVSKI (1821-2021)

In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.<br/><br/>But after Evangeline’s first promised kiss, she learns that bargaining with an immortal is a dangerous game ― and that the Prince of Hearts wants far more from her than she’d pledged.

Powerless
Lauren Roberts 2023
<b>A <i>New York Times</i> bestseller!</b><br> <br><b>This sparkling edition includes a special case stamping, bonus content, and a teaser to book two in this heart-pounding series! </b><br> <br><b>Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, this young adult fantasy follows the forbidden romance between a powerful prince and an ordinary girl as they try to survive their kingdom’s grueling laws pitting them against each other.</b><br><br><i>She is the very thing he’s spent his whole life hunting. </i><br> <i>He is the very thing she’s spent her whole life pretending to be.</i><br> <br>Only the extraordinary belong in the kingdom of Ilya—the exceptional, the empowered, the Elites. The powers these Elites have possessed for decades were graciously gifted to them by the Plague, though not all were fortunate enough to both survive the sickness and reap the reward. Those born Ordinary are just that—ordinary. And when the king decreed that all Ordinaries be banished to preserve his Elite society, lacking an ability suddenly became a crime—making Paedyn Gray a felon by fate and a thief by necessity.<br> <br>Surviving in the slums as an Ordinary is no simple task, and Paedyn knows this better than most. Having been trained by her father to be keenly observant since she was a child, Paedyn poses as a Psychic in the crowded city, blending in with the Elites as best she can to stay alive and out of trouble…easier said than done.<br> <br>When Paeydn unsuspectingly saves one of Ilya’s princes, she finds herself thrown into the Purging Trials. The brutal competition exists to showcase the Elites’ powers—the very thing Paedyn lacks. If the Trials and the opponents within them don’t kill her, the prince she’s fighting feelings for certainly will if he discovers what she is…completely Ordinary.

To Kill a Mockingbird
Harper Lee · 2014
<p>Look for The Land of Sweet Forever, a posthumous collection of newly discovered short stories and previously published essays and magazine pieces by Harper Lee, coming October 21, 2025.</p><p>Voted America's Best-Loved Novel in PBS's The Great American Read</p><p>Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep South—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred</p><p>One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.</p>

1984
George Orwell · 2013
<p>75th ANNIVERSARY EDITION</p><p>“Orwell saw, to his credit, that the act of falsifying reality is only secondarily a way of changing perceptions. It is, above all, a way of asserting power.”—The New Yorker</p><p>In 1984, London is a grim city in the totalitarian state of Oceania where Big Brother is always watching you and the Thought Police can practically read your mind. Winston Smith is a man in grave danger for the simple reason that his memory still functions. Drawn into a forbidden love affair, Winston finds the courage to join a secret revolutionary organization called The Brotherhood, dedicated to the destruction of the Party. Together with his beloved Julia, he hazards his life in a deadly match against the powers that be.</p><p>Lionel Trilling said of Orwell’s masterpiece, “1984 is a profound, terrifying, and wholly fascinating book. It is a fantasy of the political future, and like any such fantasy, serves its author as a magnifying device for an examination of the present.” Though the year 1984 now exists in the past, Orwell’s novel remains an urgent call for the individual willing to speak truth to power.</p>
