fascinación por la realidad y la espiritualidad.Este libro imprescindible de C. S. Lewis es una colección de relatos futuristas publicada póstumamente. En las obras se recoge su permanente fascinación por la realidad y la espiritualidad. Muchas de ellas están inacabadas, pero contienen una gran sabiduría sobre la naturaleza de la realidad. Esta colección de ficción futurista incluye una impresionante historia de ciencia ficción escrita al principio de su carrera en la que los intelectuales de Cambridge son testigos de la ruptura del espacio-tiempo a través de un &“cronoscopio&”, un telescopio que mira no solo a otro mundo, sino a otro tiempo. Tan poderosa, inventiva y profunda como sus obras teológicas y filosóficas, La torre oscura es una lectura ideal para los fanáticos de J. R. R. Tolkien, el viejo amigo y colega de Lewis.The Dark TowerPublished for the first time in Spanish, The Dark Tower reveals another side of Lewis' creative mind and his fascination with reality and spirituality.This signature book is a repackaged edition of the futuristic collection of short stories by C.S. Lewis published after his death. The works include his longtime fascination with reality and spirituality. Many pieces are unfinished yet provide great wisdom about the nature of reality. This collection of futuristic fiction includes a breathtaking science fiction story written early in his career in which Cambridge intellectuals witness the breach of space-time through a chronoscope—a telescope that looks not just into another world, but into another time. As powerful, inventive, and profound as his theological and philosophical works, The Dark Tower is an ideal read for fans of J. R. R. R. Tolkien, Lewis's longtime friend and colleague.

A Magical Tale About Forgiving Our Past and Believing in Our Future The enchanting, true story of The Valkyries begins…
in Rio de Janeiro when author Paulo Coelho gives his mysterious master J., the only manuscript for his book The Alchemist. Haunted by a devastating curse, Coelho confesses to J., "I've seen my dreams fall apart just when I seemed about to achieve them." In response, J. gives Coelho a daunting task: He must find and speak with his guardian angel. "The curse can be broken," he replies, "if you complete the task." Rising to the challenge, Paulo and his wife, Cristina, drop everything, pack their bags, and take off on a forty day adventure into the starkly beautiful and sometimes dangerous Mojave Desert -- where they encounter more than they bargained for. A masterful blend of the exotic locales, dramatic adventure, and magical storytelling, for which Coelho's fictional works are renowned, this true-life account is at once a modern-day adventure and a metaphysical odyssey.

Translating the beauty and splendor of his native Conamara into a language exquisitely attuned to the wonder of the everyday,…
John O'Donohue takes us on a moving journey through real and imagined worlds. Divided into three parts -- Approachings, Encounters, and Distances -- Conamara Blues at once reawakens a sense of intimacy with the natural world and a feeling of wonder at the mystery of our relationship to this world. Whether exploring the silent, eternal memory of Conamara or focusing on the power of language and the vagaries of human need and passion, O'Donohue tenderly reveals the fragile vulnerability of love and friendship. The result is a musical, transcendent, and deeply moving series of poems that exemplifies O'Donohue at his finest.Written with penetrating insight and distilled transparence, Conamara Blues offers a singular and lasting imaginative vision of a landscape of hope and possibility -- powerfully exhibiting the mastery of a poet at the height of his lyric powers.
