David Mitchell’s 2014 best seller Thinking About It Only Makes It Worse must really have made people think - because everything’s got worse. We’ve gone from UKIP surge to Brexit shambles, from horsemeat in lasagne to Donald Trump in the White House, from Woolworths going under to all the other shops going under. It’s probably socially irresponsible even to try to cheer up.

Toscana parte de situaciones aparentemente absurdas—¡un ejército iluminado!—para hacernos reflexionar sobre este disparate que llamamos “mundo”, “modernidad” o “civilización” mientras no dejamos de reírnos por las más de cien páginas que componen esta novela.

El panorama de la minería en España y los graves desequilibrios sociales en nuestra sociedad actual son los temas que aborda Alberto Vázquez-Figueroa con su excelente prosa en Bimini. En este caso, el autor viste de thriller una trama que acompaña a sus dos protagonistas en su intento de revolucionar el mundo de la navegación con un nuevo sistema de construcción de barcos basado en el carbón; un intento que los llevará a enfrentarse a las mayores potencias petrolíferas y a apoderarse de mil doscientos millones de dólares sin dejar el menor rastro.

Gordy LaSure's passionate about film. He eats film, he drinks film, and sometimes he'll even watch a film.

Nessuna traccia di sorriso. Anzi, un'espressione che valeva un punto interrogativo. Il Misfatti l'aveva messa sullo scherzo, ma quello, niente, aveva preteso i dettagli invece di riderci su. "Si spieghi meglio, appuntato", disse il Maccadò. "Dicevo tanto per..." annaspò il Misfatti. "L'ascolto comunque", insisté il maresciallo.
