As a young boy growing up in North Carolina, Romare Bearden listened to his great-grandmother's Cherokee stories and heard the…
whistle of the train that took his people to the North people who wanted to be free. When Romare and his family, faced with Jim Crow laws, boarded that same train, he watched out the window as the world whizzed by. Later he captured those scenes in a famous painting, Watching the Good Trains Go By. Using that painting as inspiration and creating a text influenced by the blues and jazz that Bearden loved, Jeanne Walker Harvey tells the story of Bearden's children by describing the patchwork of daily southern life that Romare saw out the train's window and the story of his arrival in shimmering New York City. Artists and critics today praise Bearden's collages for their visual metaphors honoring his past, African American culture, and the human experience. 2011.

Grandes Clásicos Literatura Random House rescata una de las mejores historias sobre naufragios y supervivencia, en una edición de colección…
revisada e ilustrada. Este clásico imprescindible de la literatura alemana del siglo XIX forma parte de la larga tradición de la literatura popular y de aventuras. En ella se narra la supervivencia de toda una familia en una exótica isla desierta después de haber naufragado ante sus costas. Inspirado por el Robinson Crusoe de Daniel Defoe, el pastor suizo Johann Wyss ideó esta historia para entretener y educar a sus hijos. Precisamente fue uno de ellos, Johann Rudolf, quien en 1812 se encargó de editar y publicar la novela de su padre, y el éxito fue inmediato. Después de una infinidad de traducciones y adaptaciones, recuperamos este clásico en una nueva edición revisada e ilustrada.True Love: Nantucket Brides Book 1 (Nantucket Brides)

If that wasn't troubling enough, Alix must deal with the arrogant (and extremely good-looking) architect Jared Montgomery, who is living in the property's guesthouse and who harbours secrets of his own.As sparks fly, the ghosts of the past begin to reveal themselves. Finding their lives inextricably entwined with the turbulent fortunes of their ancestors, Alix and Jared discover that only by righting the wrongs of the past can they hope to be together.Jude Deveraux.
