Nightmare Abbey; Crotchet Castle
AuthorThomas Love Peacock
ISBN0140430458
Thomas Love Peacock is literature's perfect individualist.

He has points in common with Aristophanes, Plato, Rabelais, Voltaire, and even Aldous Huxley, but resembles none of them; we can talk of the satirical novel of ideas, but his satire is too cheery and good-natured, his novel too rambling,...
The Complete Works of François Rabelais
AuthorFrançois Rabelais
ISBN0520064011
Rip-roaring and rib-tickling, François Rabelais's irreverent story of the giant Gargantua, his giant son Pantagruel, and their companion Panurge is a classic of the written word. This complete translation by Donald Frame, helpfully annotated for the nonspecialist, is a masterpiece in its own...
The Changing Light at Sandover
AuthorJames Merrill
ISBN0307263215
James Merrill’s audacious and dazzling epic poem, The Changing Light at Sandover, remains as startling today as when it first emerged in separate volumes over a period of several years. Individual parts won the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award, and the entire poem, when it was collected...

Bouvard and Pécuchet with The Dictionary of Received Ideas
AuthorGustave Flaubert
ISBN0140443207
Anyone familiar with Flaubert's writing, if asked to name his best novel, would almost certainly say Madame Bovary. But Flaubert believed, or at least intended, this work, Bouvard et Pecuchet, to be his masterpiece. I say intended because it was left unfinished and unpublished at the time of his death...

Writing History, Writing Trauma

Published in 1947, Fearful Symmetry was Northrop Frye's first book and the product of over a decade of intense labour.

Meditations on Quixote
AuthorJosé Ortega y Gasset
ISBN0393052931
In Meditations on Quixote, Jose Ortega y Gasset presents a powerful case for integrating literature into experience. Through a series of "essays in intellectual love," Ortega explores the aim of philosophy: to carry a given fact (a person, a book, a landscape, an error, a sorrow) by the shortest route...
La busca
AuthorPío Baroja
ISBN8470350145
La busca es la primera novela de la trilogía . Apareció en Madrid en 1904, en vivo contraste con las obras inmediatamente anteriores de su autor, de tendencia más simbólica y romántica y que se desarrollan en un ambiente también distinto.
Pío Baroja, desde fines del siglo XIX, estaba familiarizado...
Soledades. Galerías. Otros poemas
AuthorAntonio Machado
ISBN8437604117
Uno de mis poetas favoritos, y uno de mis libros favoritos que releo a menudo.

Machado is nostalgic, a bit sad at times, but not as desperate and metal thrusting your flesh as Neruda, (I'm reading Neruda too, and I've been reading both.) In 1909, when he was 34, he married Leonor, age 14. Leonor...
Beltenebros
AuthorAntonio Muñoz Molina
ISBN8432217352
A mí el género negro siempre me ha gustado en el cine y decepcionado en la literatura. Esos narradores objetivos típicos de las novelas policíacas clásicas y ese estilo austero nunca han terminado de convencerme, mientras que la recreación cinematográfica de esos ambientes claustrofóbicos...
Love's Body
AuthorNorman O. Brown

Brown's meditation on the condition of humanity and its long fall from the grace of a natural, instinctual innocence is available once more for a new generation of readers. Love's Body is a continuation of the explorations begun...

My Unwritten Books
AuthorGeorge Steiner
ISBN0811217035
By one of the world's foremost literary critics, George Steiner's "My Unwritten Books" meditates upon seven books he had long had in mind to write, but never did. Massively erudite, the essays are also brave, unflinching, and wholly personal.
In this fiercely original and audacious work, George...
El público
AuthorFederico García Lorca
ISBN8437606721
Tal vez la más compleja creación teatral de Lorca, solo estrenada recientemente desde que se escribiera entre 1929 y 1930, supone la cima del Lorca introvertido y complejo, y una de las principales creaciones del teatro español anterior a 1936. En ella, el autor aúna el contagio de la vanguardia...
