The lizard cage / Connelly, Karen

Público Ubicación : 813.54/C662l Autores: Connelly, Karen, Autor Título : The lizard cage Fuente : Canadá [CA] : Vintage, 2007, 430 pag. Temas : HISTORICAL  FICTION  NOVEL Resumen : Summary : Teza once electrified the people of Burma with his protest songs against the dictatorship. Arrested by the Burmese secret police in the days of mass protest, he is seven years into a twenty-year sentence in solitary confinement. Cut off from his family and contact with other prisoners, he applies his acute intelligence, Buddhist patience, and humor to find meaning in the interminable days, and searches for news in every being and object that is grudgingly allowed into his cell. Despite his isolation, Teza has a profound influence on the people around him. His very existence challenges the brutal authority of the jailers, and his steadfast spirit inspires radical change. Even when Teza’s criminal server tries to compromise the singer for his own gain, Teza befriends him and risks falling into the trap of forbidden conversation, food, and the most dangerous contraband of all: paper and pen. Yet, it is through Teza’s relationship with Little Brother, a twelve-year-old orphan who’s grown up inside the walls, that we ultimately come to understand the importance of hope and human connection in the midst of injustice and violence. Teza and the boy are prisoners of different orders: only one of them dreams of escape and only one of them will achieve it—their extraordinary friendship frees both of them in utterly surprising ways...leer masleer menos

Temas : ENGLISH  LITERATURE,  HISTORICAL  NOVEL Resumen : Summary: He is a traveller in a time of discovery, and the greatest gardening pioneer of his day.

The farming of bones / Danticat, Edwidge

Público Ubicación : 813.54/D174f Autores: Danticat, Edwidge, Autor Título : The farming of bones Fuente : New York [US] : Penguin Books, 1998, 312 p. Temas : AMERICAN  LITERATURE,  HISTORICAL  NOVEL Resumen : The story centers on Amabelle, an orphan who has been raised by the Dominican family of Señora Valencia. As she navigates her life as a servant and midwife, Amabelle experiences love and tragedy, particularly through her relationship with Sebastien, a Haitian cane worker. Set during the politically charged atmosphere of General Trujillo's regime, the narrative sheds light on the brutal massacre of Haitians in the Dominican Republic, revealing the pervasive discrimination and violence faced by those of Haitian descent. With its rich character development and haunting imagery, the novel delves into themes of belonging, memory, and the struggle to tell one's story in the aftermath of catastrophe. As Amabelle searches for her lost loved ones and grapples with her haunting past, the narrative invites readers to reflect on the broader implications of history and the personal impact of cultural and national identities. Danticat's work is a vital exploration of the intersection of personal and collective trauma, making it a significant contribution to contemporary literature....leer masleer menos
