The Body Where I Was Born
Summary
The first novel to appear in English by one of the most talked-about and critically acclaimed writers of new Mexican fiction. From a psychoanalyst's couch, the narrator looks back on her bizarre childhood - in which she was born with an abnormality in her eye into a family intent on fixing it. In a world without the time and space for innocence, the narrator intimately recalls her younger self - a fierce and discerning girl open to life's pleasures and keen to its ruthless cycle of tragedy. With raw language and a brilliant sense of humor, both delicate and unafraid, Nettel strings together hard-won, unwieldy memories - taking us from Mexico City to Aix-en-Provence, France, then back home again - to create a portrait of the artist as a young girl. In this novel, Nettel's art of storytelling transforms experience into inspiration and a new startling perception of reality.

Para Ewan Campbell, aceptar a un enclenque muchacho en su castillo, uno que además pretende unirse a su tropa de soldados, es una auténtica aberración.

Sumidos en un desconcierto total de emociones, ambos se darán cuenta de que el amor se encuentra donde menos se lo esperan, y que su corazón solo se enciende ante el roce de una única piel....

The Far Shore
Summary
An oppressive world. An untested spacecraft. A perilous gamble. Can her journey preserve humanity's freedom? Cristina Flores speaks her mind. But in a totalitarian surveillance state where privacy is a thing of the past, her critical thinking and outspoken nature have marked her for death. So when rebel scientists recruit the math genius for a covert plan to start anew on Mars, she accepts the chance to control her own destiny. But space is a harsh sanctuary, and freedom is never purchased cheaply. Alongside a small band of like-minded renegades, Cristina struggles to overcome escalating failures and rising panic. She fears their most lethal threat may be a charismatic but incompetent leader determined to command the colony to its last dying breath.... Can Cristina's unstoppable determination keep their dream alive, or will the hope for freedom be lost in the void? The Far Shore is a thrilling sci-fi novel in the classic tradition. If you enjoy courageous heroes, convincing technology, and hard-edged science, you’ll love Glenn Damato’s bold odyssey. “A magnificent story - a soaring feat of imagination, highly suspenseful and utterly gripping.” (Robert Bidinotto, best-selling author of Hunter) “I give The Far Shore five stars. It rivals The Martian in accuracy, ambition and attitude. It offers hope for humanity at all levels.” (Tamara Wilhite, contributor at Liberty Island Magazine) “Gripping and immersive, The Far Shore offers a lot: Technology for the hard science fiction fans and tons of heart for all of us.” (Laura Montgomery, author of Mercenary Calling)
