Es increíble, divertida y emotiva: un romance moderno con un toque de ciencia-ficción que hará que vuelvas a leerlo una y otra vez.» «Una historia maravillosa, una obra que desprende magia y originalidad, a partes iguales. Llena de ternura y muchos otros y buenos ingredientes.» «Una historia muy entretenida que engancha desde el principio y que a pesar de parecer bastante sencilla, se apoya sobre una premisa increíblemente interesante, además de que está llena de momentos adorables.» «Este es uno de esos libros de los que una vez empiezas a leerlo, ya no puedes soltarlo hasta que lo terminas. Un libro que he disfrutado muchísimo.» «Fluye sin apenas notarla, pero a cambio guarda más ingenio y corazón de lo que parece a primera vista. Aparte, el humor de los diálogos dota de un delicioso toque irónico al conjunto de la historia. Concluye de forma realista y preciosa y me ha encantado.»
Dreampad
by Jeff LatosikA hopeful, timely new collection of poems that take up our ever-evolving relationship with technology.Starting from an urge to reconcile the human need for stability with what's happening in a constantly fluid "now," Dreampad, Trillium Book Award for Poetry winner poet Jeff Latosik's startling new collection, ponders whether an ideal for living is viable when we're not sure we can say yes or no to anything in a world that's growing increasingly ephemeral and entangled with the virtual.These poems, however, are a salvo--or "protest" in the most useful sense of that word--a reminder we might already own a verbal architecture to express the difficulty of being alive in a world that can, could, and might still even be humane, loving, habitable.

Dreams
by Theodore SaboDreams is inspired by symbolist poetry and by the medieval summa which tried to encapsulate the entire world in its pages. The poems do not need to be understood but should be viewed as abstract art in which one tries, always unsuccessfully, to put infinite riches in a little room. Despite its size it is like a book of a hundred pages with miniscule paintings on the margins of every page. The longer one looks at a painting the larger it becomes and reveals more and more so that one hardly has to read the words. Dreams is a confused memory of the Gesamtkunstwerk which has had many names: the sacred book of the arts, the engulfed cathedral, the interior castle, the stone lyre.
Dreams (Classics To Go)
by Jerome K. Jerome(Excerpt): "The most extraordinary dream I ever had was one in which I fancied that, as I was going into a theater, the cloak-room attendant stopped me in the lobby and insisted on my leaving my legs behind me. I was not surprised; indeed, my acquaintanceship with theater harpies would prevent my feeling any surprise at such a demand, even in my waking moments; but I was, I must honestly confess, considerably annoyed. It was not the payment of the cloak-room fee that I so much minded—I offered to give that to the man then and there. It was the parting with my legs that I objected to."
