Bodas de Sangre



Es una tragedia, escrita en prosa y verso, por el escritor español Federico Garcia Lorca en 1931.
se estreno el 8 de Mayo de 1933 en el  Teatro Beatriz de Madrid por la compañía de Josefina Diaz, y fue llevada ala cine por Carlos Saura en 1981.
El tema principal tratado en este gran drama es la vida y la muerte, pero de un modo arcano y ancestral, en la que figuran mitos, leyendas y paisajes, que nos introducen en un mundo de sombrías pasiones, que derivan en los celos, la persecución y en el trágico final: la muerte...

Deben de leerse este libro es corto re-interesante, y en serio de los mejores, llevado al teatro es lo máximo ;)

The picture of Dorian Gray




This's the picture of Dorian Gray's plot:

The novel begins on a beautiful summer day with Lord Henry Wotton, a strongly-opinionated man, observing the sensitive artist Basil Hallward painting the portrait of a handsome young man named Dorian Gray, who is Basil's ultimate muse. After hearing Lord Henry's world view, Dorian begins to think beauty is the only worthwhile aspect of life. He wishes that the portrait Basil painted would grow old in his place. Under the influence of Lord Henry (who relishes the hedonic lifestyle and is a major exponent thereof), Dorian begins to explore his senses. He discovers amazing actress Sibyl Vane, who performsShakespeare plays in a dingy theatre. Dorian approaches her and soon proposes marriage. Sibyl, who refers to him as "Prince Charming", swoons with happiness, but her protective brother James tells her that if "Prince Charming" harms her, he will certainly kill him.
Dorian invites Basil and Lord Henry to see Sibyl perform in Romeo and Juliet. Sibyl, whose only knowledge of love was love of theatre, casts aside her acting abilities through the experience of true love with Dorian. Disheartened, Dorian rejects her, saying her beauty was in her acting, and he is no longer interested in her. When he returns home, he notices that his portrait has changed. Dorian realizes his wish has come true – the portrait now bears a subtle sneer and will age with each sin he commits, while his own appearance remains unchanged.
He decides to reconcile with Sibyl, but Lord Henry later informs him that she has killed herself by swallowing prussic acid. Dorian realizes that lust and looks are where his life is headed and he needs nothing else. Over the next 18 years, he experiments with every vice, mostly under the influence of a "poisonous" French decadence novel, a present from Lord Henry. The title is never revealed in the novel, but at Oscar Wilde's trial he admitted that he had 'had in mind' Joris-Karl Huysmans's À Rebours (Against Nature).

While at dinner, Dorian sees James stalking the grounds and fears for his life. However, during a game-shooting party a few days later, a lurking James is accidentally shot and killed by one of the hunters. After returning to London, Dorian tells Lord Henry that he will be good from now on, and has started by not breaking the heart of his latest innocent conquest named Hetty Merton. Dorian wonders if the portrait has begun to change back, now that he has given up his immoral ways. He unveils the portrait to find it has become worse. Seeing this, he realizes that the motives behind his "self-sacrifice" was merely vanity, curiosity, and the quest for new emotional experiences.One night, before he leaves for Paris, Basil arrives to question Dorian about rumours of his indulgences. Dorian does not deny his debauchery. He takes Basil to the portrait, which is as hideous as Dorian's sins. In anger, Dorian blames Basil for his fate and stabs Basil to death. He then blackmails an old friend named Alan Campbell, a chemist, into destroying Basil's body. Wishing to escape the guilt of his crime, Dorian travels to an opium den. James Vane is present there and attempts to shoot Dorian after he hears someone refer to Dorian as "Prince Charming". However, he is deceived when Dorian fools James into thinking he is too young to have been involved with Sibyl 18 years earlier. James releases Dorian but is approached by a woman from the opium den who chastises him for not killing Dorian, revealing Dorian has not aged for 18 years. James attempts to run after him, only to find Dorian long gone.
Deciding that only full confession will absolve him, he decides to destroy the last vestige of his conscience. In a rage, he picks up the knife that killed Basil Hallward and plunges it into the painting. His servants wake hearing a cry from inside the locked room, and passers by on the street fetch the police. The servants find Dorian's body, stabbed in the heart and suddenly aged, withered and horrible. It is only through the rings on his hand that the corpse can be identified. Beside him, however, the portrait has reverted to its original form.

Jesper



"El 9 de abril de 1940, el ejercito alemán invadió Dinamarca y Noruega. Dinamarca se rindió el mismo día, Noruega resistió un mes. Desde ese momento, estos países se convirtieron en territorios ocupados, controlados y explotados por los alemanes, con la única posibilidad de defenderse desde los movimientos de la resistencia, que eran secreto y demasiado peligrosos. Si embargo, el joven Jesper no duda en unirse a la resistencia y desafiar a los nazis, primero colaborando con un periódico clandestino, para poco después irse implicando mas y mas, hasta participar en las operaciones mas arriesgadas. Al fin y al cabo, su mejor amigo y su novia habían tenido que huir por ser judíos, y las heridas estaban demasiado frescas..."
En serio recomiendo este libro y veo por los comentarios que algunos ya se lo han leído asi que pues, espero que lo lean.
 Después vuelvo con mas libros ;)
