About this listen
En 1518, un cuarto de siglo después de Cristóbal Colón, Magallanes convenció al rey de España, Carlos I, de que le proporcionara una flota para explorar el mar que separaba Asia de América. A sus treinta y nueve años, al mando de una flota de 5 barcos y 265 hombres, comenzaba un episodio que marcaría la historia de la navegación y de la humanidad. Regresó tres años después en un barco improvisado, con solo 18 hombres. Motín, hambre, rivalidad, errores... de nada se salvará el célebre aventurero. Cuidadosamente documentada, la reconstrucción de su hazaña es un brillante cuadro de las condiciones económicas y políticas a comienzos del siglo y rinde tributo a a la gesta de un genio apasionado, que con insignificantes barcos dio la vuelta al globo, demostrando por primera vez su redondez.

Story
Hofmiller, un oficial de la caballería austrohúngara, es invitado a una fiesta en la casa de un rico terrateniente Kekesfalva, lo que le lleva a un mundo completamente distinto del de su rutina cuartelaria habitual: se encuentra en un entorno glamuroso, donde el vino fluye libremente y acaba estimulándole, a pedir a la bella hija de su anfitrión que baile con el. Sin embargo para su horror descubre que la joven es inválida. Esta torpeza inconsciente va a ser el comienzo de la pérdida del respeto hacia sí mismo.

Story
Stefan Zweig trabajó más de veinte años en Momentos estelares de la humanidad. El libro reúne catorce momentos históricos retratados por Zweig, fundamentales desde su punto de vista para el transcurso de la historia. El asesinato de Cicerón, la expedición fallida al Polo Sur del capitán Scott y la fiebre del oro de California en 1848 son solo algunos de estos relatos que ilustran la visión del mundo que tenía Zweig, que apela a los procedimientos narrativos de sus novelas para dar vida a narraciones que siempre oscilan entre lo ficcional y lo fáctico.

Story
Publicada en 1929, "Fouché, el genio tenebroso", es una de las mayores obras maestras de Stefan Zweig. Una obra apasionante e hipnótica, que no deja indiferente a nadie. Joseph Fouché (1759 - 1820) fue uno de los personajes más controvertidos de la Revolución Francesa. Hipócrita, tenebroso y maquiavélico, votó a favor de la muerte de Luis XVI y María Antonieta y fue responsable de sangrientas represalias. Luego, sintiéndose amenazado por Robespierre, participó activamente en la conspiración termidoriana.

Junio de 1960. Un temporal mantiene aisladas en la idílica isla de Utakos, frente a Corfú, a nueve personas alojadas en el pequeño hotel local. Nada hace presagiar lo que está a punto de ocurrir: Edith Mander, una discreta turista inglesa, aparece muerta en el pabellón de la playa. Lo que parece un suicidio revela indicios imperceptibles para cualquiera salvo para Hopalong Basil, un actor en decadencia que en otro tiempo encarnó en la pantalla al más célebre detective de todos los tiempos.

Story
Crimen y castigo es una de las novelas psicológicas de Dostoievski. Su argumento gira en torno a un joven estudiante que no encuentra otra solución para aliviar su pobreza que matar y robar a una vieja usurera. La novela está estructurada sobre un tema ético: el fin no justifica los medios. Se asiste así a un complicado proceso mental durante el cual el estudiante elabora meticulosamente su crimen, sin pensar en las consecuencias directas y materiales que le pueda reportar. Únicamente al final y a través del amor, le llegará el arrepentimiento redentor.

El viaje del elefante no es un libro histórico, es una combinación de hechos reales e inventados que nos hace sentir la realidad y la ficción como una unidad indisoluble, como algo propio de la gran literatura. Una reflexión sobre la humanidad en la que el humor y la ironía, marcas de la implacable lucidez del autor, se unen a la compasión con la que José Saramago observa las flaquezas humana.

En 1939, el barco S.S. Saint Louis, con novecientos judíos que lograron huir de Alemania, estuvo fondeado varios días frente al puerto de La Habana a la espera del permiso para los refugiados. El niño Daniel Kaminsky y su tío esperaron en el muelle a que desembarcaran sus familiares, confiados en que usaran ante los funcionarios el tesoro que portaban a escondidas: un pequeño lienzo de Rembrandt que perteneció a los Kaminsky desde el siglo XVII. Pero el plan fracasó y el barco regresó a Alemania, llevándose con él toda esperanza de reencuentro.

Story
It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams - that contributed to the person I am today. This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival, and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

It places you in the middle of the action.
Outstanding. Superbly written and the use of language to describe the characters and occurrences could not be better.

Estupenda Historia de la Primera Vuelta al Mundo
Primer libro que leo ó escucho de Zweig. No será el último. Zweig lleva de la mano para conocer cómo y por qué los portugueses desarrollaron conocimientos de navegación en el siglo XV, el desarrollo de Magallanes desde juventud incipiente, las razones por las que su viaje fue auspiciado por la Corona Española en lugar de Portugal y (la parte mas jugosa) el primer viaje alrededor del mundo. Los detalles del cargamento que llevaron para el viaje son increíbles; la prosa es emocionante. Me gustó sin encantarme el narrador; le puse 4/5 un tris plano para mi gusto pero es claro y certero. No lo dudes y sumérgete en este relato.
