About this listen
En la Extremadura profunda de los años sesenta, la humilde familia de Paco el Bajo sirve en un cortijo sometida a un régimen de explotación casi feudal que parece haberse detenido en el tiempo pero sobre el que soplan ya algunos aires nuevos. Es época de caza y Paco se ha tronzado el peroné. Las presiones del señorito para que lo acompañe en las batidas a pesar de su estado sirven para retratar la crueldad y los abusos de una clase instalada en unos privilegios que considera inalienables y que los protagonistas soportan con una dignidad ejemplar.
"Tiene el lector en sus manos una de las grandes novelas de la literatura en español de todos los tiempos. Conviene decirlo ya desde el primer momento: Los santos inocentes de Miguel Delibes es una cumbre artística y literaria, una obra perfecta. La novela fue publicada en 1981 y no ha dejado desde entonces de sumar lectores y ediciones, hasta convertirse en un clásico popular de la cultura española." (Manuel Vilas)

En 1517, las tesis de Martín Lutero desencadenaron la Reforma protestante. Ese mismo año nació en Valladolid Cipriano Salcedo. En tiempos de convulsiones políticas y religiosas, esa coincidencia de fechas marcaría fatalmente su destino. Huérfano desde su nacimiento y falto del amor del padre, Cipriano contó, no obstante, con el afecto de su nodriza Minervina, una relación que le sería arrebatada y que le perseguiría el resto de su vida.

La familia de Pascual Duarte vio la luz en 1942 y tuvo un enorme impacto en el panorama literario español del momento. Primer libro de Camilo José Cela, supuso un valioso punto de partida para la narrativa española de posguerra. La vida trágica de su arquetípico protagonista, gobernada por la más salvaje violencia, era un comentario indirecto sobre la barbarie padecida por los españoles durante la recién concluida Guerra Civil, al tiempo que daba carta de naturaleza a una tendencia literaria renovadora, luego conocida como «tremendismo».

Story4 out of 5 stars 15
Una mujer acaba de perder a su marido y vela el cadáver durante la noche. Sobre la mesilla hay un libro - la Biblia - que la esposa hojea. Va leyendo los párrafos subrayados por el hombre que se ha ido para siempre. Una oleada de recuerdos le viene a la mente y empieza un lento, desordenado monólogo en el que la vida pugna por hacerse real otra vez. La pobre vida llena de errores y torpezas, de pequeños goces e incomprensiones. ¿Ha conocido Carmen alguna vez a Mario?

"Desconcertante, lista a inquietar a la crítica, está ya en los escaparates la primera novela de Juan Rulfo, Pedro Páramo, que transcurre en una serie de transposiciones oníricas, ahondando más allá de la muerte de sus personajes, que uno no sabe en qué momento son sueño, vida, fábula, verdad, pero a los que se les oye la voz al través de la perspicacia despiadada y certera de tan sin duda extraordinario escritor". Con estas palabras iniciaba Edmundo Valdés la primera reseña de Pedro Páramo, aparecida el 30 de marzo de 1955 y conservada por Juan Rulfo entre sus papeles.

En Rayuela (1963), Julio Cortázar supo condensar sus obsesiones estéticas, literarias y vitales a partir de un mosaico diverso, profundo, inagotable que, a su vez, refleja de forma maravillosa lo más esencial de su época. El amor turbulento de Oliveira y La Maga, los amigos del Club de la Serpiente, las impredecibles caminatas por París -la ciudad que promete el cielo pero puede conducir al infierno-, encuentran su contracara en la aventura protagonizada por Oliveira, Talita y Traveler en Buenos Aires.

En el Madrid de los años inmediatamente posteriores a la Guerra Civil, los destinos de numerosos individuos de varias clases sociales y con diferentes actitudes ante la vida desfilan en una secuencia de breves y fascinantes viñetas narrativas. Con la ciudad como personaje, el conjunto es el retrato de una sociedad en la que el estraperlo, el hambre, la prostitución y el miedo conviven con efímeros destellos de ternura y humor.

Critic reviews
Tiene el lector en sus manos una de las grandes novelas de la literatura en español de todos los tiempos. Conviene decirlo ya desde el primer momento: Los santos inocentes de Miguel Delibes es una cumbre artística y literaria, una obra perfecta. La novela fue publicada en 1981 y no ha dejado desde entonces de sumar lectores y ediciones, hasta convertirse en un clásico popular de la cultura española.

And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Life in the big city just wasn't her jam and now she's back in Hickory Falls, working at the family diner and helping her mom after she took a tumble. Lesley longs to build a life here, working at the cafe, selling her handmade ornaments and ... er, apparently reviving her high school crush on her best friend’s older brother. Only one problem, her mom wants her to leave Hickory Falls far behind.

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.
