El Acto De Crear

Rick Rubin · 2023

Del Legendario Productor Musical, Un Maestro En El Arte De Ayudar A Los Demás A Conectar Con Las Fuentes De Su Propia Creatividad, Llega Un Libro Maravillosamente Fraguado A Lo Largo De Muchos Años Con Una Visión Profunda De La Creatividad Y De La Vida Dirigida Todo El Mundo. «me Propuse A Mí Mismo Escribir Un Libro Acerca De Cómo Crear Una Gran Obra De Arte. En Lugar De Eso, Se Reveló Como Un Libro Acerca De Cómo Ser.» Los Grandes Productores Musicales Suelen Ser Reconocidos Por Un Sonido único Que Solo Ellos Son Capaces De Lograr. Rick Rubin Es Conocido Por Eso Y Por Algo Más: Por Saber Crear Un Espacio En El Que Artistas De Diferentes Géneros Y Tradiciones Se Reencuentran Con Su Identidad Profunda Y Con Aquello Que Realmente Tienen Que Ofrecer Al Mundo. Rubin Ha Convertido En Una Práctica Su Impulso De Ayudar A Las Personas Para Que Trasciendan Expectativas Autoimpuestas Y Reconecten Con Un Estado De Inocencia En El Que Lo Sorprendente Se Convierte En Inevitable. A Lo Largo De Los Años, Rubin Ha Pensado Mucho En El Origen De La Creatividad: De Dónde Viene Y De Dónde No, Y Ha Aprendido Que Ser Artista No Depende Tanto De Un Resultado En Concreto, Sino De Cómo Nos Relacionamos Con El Mundo. La Creatividad Tiene Un Lugar En La Vida De Todas Las Personas Y Todos Podemos Hacer Ese Espacio Más Grande. De Hecho, Hay Pocas Responsabilidades Humanas Que Sean Más Importantes Que Esa. El Acto De Crear Es Un Curso Bello Y Generoso Que Ilumina El Camino Del Artista Como Una Ruta Que Todos Podemos Seguir. Este Libro Destila La Sabiduría Recogida Durante El Trabajo De Toda Una Vida Y La Convierte En Una Luminosa Experiencia De Lectura Que Tiene El Poder De Crear Momentos —y Vidas— De Gozo Y Trascendencia Al Alcance De Todo El Mundo.

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

Taylor Jenkins Reid

<b><i>NEW YORK TIMES</i></b><b> BESTSELLER</b><br> <br><b>“If you</b>’<b>re looking for a book to take on holiday this summer, <i>The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo</i> has got all the glitz and glamour to make it a perfect beach read.” —<i>Bustle</i></b><br> <br><b>From the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Daisy Jones & the Six</i>—an entrancing and “wildly addictive journey of a reclusive Hollywood starlet” (<i>PopSugar</i>) as she reflects on her relentless rise to the top and the risks she took, the loves she lost, and the long-held secrets the public could never imagine.</b><br><br>Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now?<br> <br>Monique is not exactly on top of the world. Her husband has left her, and her professional life is going nowhere. Regardless of why Evelyn has selected her to write her biography, Monique is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career.<br> <br>Summoned to Evelyn’s luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the ‘80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star, but as Evelyn’s story near its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique’s own in tragic and irreversible ways.<br> <br>“Heartbreaking, yet beautiful” (Jamie Blynn, <i>Us Weekly</i>), <i>The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo </i>is “Tinseltown drama at its finest” (<i>Redbook</i>): a mesmerizing journey through the splendor of old Hollywood into the harsh realities of the present day as two women struggle with what it means—and what it costs—to face the truth.

El Placebo Eres Tu

JOE DISPENZA

"El placebo eres tú es un auténtico manual de instrucciones para provocar milagros en tu cuerpo, en tu salud y en tu vida." Christiane Northrup La mente posee unas capacidades asombrosas. No solo es capaz de transformar la experiencia sino también de influir en la materia: tomando el control del pensamiento y las emociones podemos reprogramar nuestras células; poseemos la maquinaria biológica y neurológica necesaria para hacerlo. Esta es la premisa del nuevo libro de Joe Dispenza, el científico que saltó a la fama con el impactante documental ¿Y tú que sabes?. Un placebo es una sustancia sin ningún poder farmacológico que, sin embargo, provoca un efecto positivo en el paciente. ¿Qué pasaría, pregunta Joe Dispenza, si las personas creyeran en sí mismas en vez de confiar en algo externo? Apoyándose en los últimos hallazgos científicos, Dispenza nos ofrece infinidad de ejemplos de las posibilidades de la mente para provocar cambios. Lo que es aún más interesante: nos enseña a utilizar la denominada "ciencia de la transformación" para ejercer nuestra capacidad innata de creación en nuestro cuerpo... y en nuestra vida.

La Metamorfosis

Franz Kafka · 2015

La Metamorfosis es la famosísima novela de Kafka, que nos relata la vida de un ser humano convertido en un insecto y cómo esa transformación cambia sus costumbres y sus relaciones con el resto de su familia. Kafka mezcla con naturalidad realidad y ficción al servicio de las ideas que intenta transmitir. Es una novela existencialista, en que se nos habla constantemente de las relaciones del individuo con la sociedad, en la que la transformación en insecto, lejos de constituir el centro de la trama, pasa más bien a ser un pretexto. Esperamos que disfrute de la presente edición que le ofrece Paradimage.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation

Ottessa Moshfegh · 2019

Named a Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post, Time, NPR, Vice, Bustle, The New York Times, The Guardian, Kirkus Reviews, Entertainment Weekly, The AV Club, & Audible A New York Times Bestseller • New York Times Readers Pick: 100 Best Books of the 21st Century “One of the most compelling protagonists modern fiction has offered in years: a loopy, quietly furious pillhead whose Ambien ramblings and Xanaxed b*tcheries somehow wend their way through sad and funny and strange toward something genuinely profound.” — Entertainment Weekly “Darkly hilarious . . . [Moshfegh’s] the kind of provocateur who makes you laugh out loud while drawing blood.” —Vogue From one of our boldest, most celebrated new literary voices, a novel about a young woman's efforts to duck the ills of the world by embarking on an extended hibernation with the help of one of the worst psychiatrists in the annals of literature and the battery of medicines she prescribes. Our narrator should be happy, shouldn't she? She's young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, works an easy job at a hip art gallery, lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like the rest of her needs, by her inheritance. But there is a dark and vacuous hole in her heart, and it isn't just the loss of her parents, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her best friend, Reva. It's the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong? My Year of Rest and Relaxation is a powerful answer to that question. Through the story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs designed to heal our heroine from her alienation from this world, Moshfegh shows us how reasonable, even necessary, alienation can be. Both tender and blackly funny, merciless and compassionate, it is a showcase for the gifts of one of our major writers working at the height of her powers.
