Letters for My Father explores grieving and making sense of a relationship between a father and son while also being so much more. Written by the influential existential psychologist Louis Hoffman, who has worked extensively with grieving throughout his career as a psychotherapist, this is also a book of love, self-exploration, relational depth, and the world and realities that shaped his relationship with his father.

The largest gathering of Union and Confederate veterans ever held was front-page news throughout the country. “[It] will be talked about and written about as long as the American people boast of the dauntless courage of Gettysburg,” declared a woman who accompanied her father to the reunion.

Nel 1507 Johannes Pfefferkorn, un ebreo convertito spalleggiato dai teologi dell’Università di Colonia, pubblica un libello ferocemente antigiudaico: tra le sue proposte, privare gli ebrei della loro identità culturale confiscandone e distruggendone i testi sacri. A contrastare lo sconsiderato disegno è Johannes Reuchlin, il maggior ebraista del tempo, che nella violentissima polemica finisce persino accusato di eresia.

Mediante veintitrés cartas dirigidas a su amigo y confidente Germán Arciniegas, Emma Reyes asumió el arduo ejercicio de narrar los giros y adversidades que vivió durante su infancia. Estos textos, escritos entre 1969 y 1997, son una conmovedora mezcla de inocencia y serenidad ante la tragedia, y articulan magistralmente un relato personal que evoca el duro contexto de la Colombia de la segunda y tercera décadas del siglo xx.

MicroDosis es un diario escrito durante los dos últimos años en el que Enrique Bunbury decide experimentar en su conciencia la ingesta de microdosis de psilocibina.

De esta forma Bunbury consolida su incursión en la literatura tras la aparición en 2021 de su primer poemario Exilio Topanga (La Bella Varsovia) sumando a los rasgos estéticos presentes en aquel una atmósfera de psicodelia y una crítica a "la norma mental" del sistema.

When newly commissioned Royal Engineers Second Lieutenant Lawrence (Tommy) Bond was ordered overseas in February 1943, he left behind his wife Millicent and their two small children. They would not be reunited for more than two and a half years. How, in those pre-internet days, did they not only hold their marriage and their family together but plan their post-war future?
