“A work of art. In each of the pages, you will feel the flow of a powerful energy which will murmur to each of your cells that it is time to come out of hiding, to open the windows, to breathe freely, to dress colorfully… to fly.”—Laura Esquivel, author of Like Water for Chocolate A fable for all ages about a Mexican-American girl who transforms into a monarch butterfly and undertakes the great migration to Mexico, Monarca braids together the values of heritage, ecology, and personal transformation. On her thirteenth birthday, Inés receives a mysterious necklace from her abuela in Mexico that turns her into a monarch butterfly—the fulfilment of a prophecy linking Inés’ destiny to her family’s legacy and the butterflies’ survival. The adventure continues as Inés joins the monarchs on their long journey south to the butterfly sanctuary in Mexico—an odyssey that has become increasingly perilous due to human activity. Together, the swarm travels from the northeast to the swamps of Louisiana to the pine-filled mountain tops of the western Sierra Madre, finally alighting at the Sierra Chincua sanctuary. On this wondrous journey in the vein of Jonathan Livingston Seagull and The Little Prince, Inés discovers the connections between all living beings, and the urgent need to protect the monarchs' migration and habitats. Divided into four chapters to mirror the four stages in a monarch’s life—egg, larva, pupa and butterfly—Monarca blends Mexican folklore, environmentalism, and magical realism in an enchanting novella. This book will inspire readers to protect and cherish the sacred natural world around them.Ver livro

“Remove My Shadow From My Body” is a psychological and symbolic story that portrays the inner journey of a man seeking liberation from his past, guilt, and the shadow of his identity. Every person carries a shadow — but the protagonist of this story wants to separate that shadow from himself. Here, the shadow is not just the silhouette formed by light, but a symbol of his inner darkness, past mistakes, and suppressed emotions. As the story progresses, readers become part of a mental struggle where the lines between reality and imagination begin to blur. The desire to remove the shadow becomes a deeper echo of self-acceptance and liberation. This is a story about the voices that remain buried inside us — and sometimes scream so loudly that we stop recognizing ourselves.Ver livro

Here's a brief summary of the novel: Plot Introduction: The protagonist, Bartley Alexander, is a construction engineer and a world-renowned builder of bridges. Bartley is undergoing a mid-life crisis and is married to Winifred. Despite his marriage, Bartley resumes his acquaintance with a former lover, Hilda Burgoyne, in London.
