Veinte poemas de amor y una canción desesperada
Veinte poemas de amor y una canción desesperada es una de las obras más célebres del poeta chileno Pablo Neruda. Publicado en junio de 1924, el poemario lanzó a su autor a la fama con apenas 19 años de edad, y es una de las obras literarias de mayor renombre del siglo XX en el idioma español.

El llano en llamas
El "Llano en llamas" es hoy un clásico de la literatura mexicana e hispanoamericana, y probablemente uno de los volúmenes de cuentos más traducido a otros idiomas en el mundo entero. Obra aparentemente sencilla resulta, sin embargo, profundamente desconcertante. En su unidad formal descansa una gran diversidad de lenguajes, registros y tonos con los que Rulfo aborda la problemática de una…

Poems
The work of Federico Garcia Lorca, Spain's greatest modern poet, has long been admired for its emotional intensity and metaphorical brilliance. Few poets take us more directly and memorably to what Lorca described as "the dark root of the scream," the terrain of the duende, where inspiration delivers a new poetic reality and "intelligence" discovers its limitations.

Revolutionist's Handbook and Pocket Companion
The French Revolution overthrew one set of rulers and substituted another with different interests and different views.

Escape, and other essays
This book is romantic story, I walked to-day down by the river side. The Cam is a stream much slighted by the lover of wild and romantic scenery; and its chief merit, in the eyes of our boys, is that it approaches more nearly to a canal in its straightness and the deliberation of its slow lapse than many more famous floods--and is therefore more adapted for the maneuvres of eight-oared boats! But…

The thread of gold
This is biographical book. I have for a great part of my life desired, perhaps more than I have desired anything else, to make a beautiful book; and I have tried, perhaps too hard and too often, to do this, without ever quite succeeding; by that I mean that my little books, when finished, were not worthy to be compared with the hope that I had had of them.
