Sinopse

In "Monsieur De Pourceaugnac," Molière masterfully weaves a comedic tapestry that satirizes the follies of social pretension and the absurdities of love. This three-act farce, set in 17th-century France, employs rapid dialogue, mistaken identities, and clever wordplay to illustrate the tensions between the bourgeoisie and the nobility. The play encapsulates the essence of Molière's theatrical style, marked by its sharp wit and keen observations of human behavior, reflecting the societal dynamics of his time and the burgeoning middle class's ascent in the wake of the French Renaissance. Molière, born Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, was a playwright and actor whose own experiences in the theater and society profoundly shaped his works. His works often draw from his personal encounters with the upper classes and his disdain for their pretentiousness. "Monsieur De Pourceaugnac" showcases his exceptional ability to critique societal norms while entertaining audiences, a reflection of his lifelong quest to portray the absurdities of human vice. This delightful play is highly recommended for readers who appreciate sharp social commentary wrapped in humor. Molière's enduring wit and keen insights make "Monsieur De Pourceaugnac" not only a testament to the playful spirit of the age but also a timeless exploration of human folly, inviting readers to reflect on their own societal engagements.

    We present a heartfelt tribute to what many call vocation or purpose. Join me in the journey of a young man, Kadmiel, as he ventures through various trades in search of his true calling, reflecting the experiences shared by millions worldwide, as Vicki Robin eloquently conveyed in her book, "The Stock Market or Life." Some find their passion early on and follow a steady path, while others, like Kadmiel, zigzag through a dozen jobs, always moving forward. 
    However, this work serves a dual purpose. Beyond just Kadmiel's tale, it aims to awaken us from the slumber of life's vicious cycle. Most of us find ourselves trapped in the belief that work solely exists to pay the bills, inadvertently forgetting the essential question: What about our happiness? Vicki Robin's words beautifully encapsulate this scenario - if the daily grind truly brought us joy and a sense of fulfillment, the trials and inconveniences would be a minor price to pay. But increasingly, it's evident that money doesn't guarantee the happiness we seek beyond a certain level of comfort. 
    If this resonates with you in any way, this book is meant for you. It delves into the quest for meaning and happiness that many of us find ourselves on.

    The new winner of the Paz Prize for Poetry, granted by the National Poetry Series, is the author’s impressionistic homage to his hometown of Colima, Mexico.“In this remarkable bilingual debut . . . Pérez-Cortés cracks open the name of his hometown, Colima, to generate a vast mythology . . . The side-by-side presentation of the original Spanish and its English translation adds another layer to this engrossing volume.” —BooklistA Poets & Writers Page One SelectionIma and Coli Are the Tree That Was Never a Seed is Alejandro Pérez-Cortés’s personal genesis of Colima, Mexico, published here in both English and Spanish. The tree is an element/character in the book that appears and disappears throughout. Some poems are set in an ancient pre-Hispanic Colima; others reflect the reality of a modern-day Colima, sadly stigmatized and eroded by violence perpetrated by the narcos.In his introduction, preeminent Cuban poet José Kozer praises Pérez-Cortés: “Ima and Coli Are the Tree That Was Never a Seed comprises a voice that I consider poetic and that should be cared for and listened to with true interest. A voice that encompasses all, one that seeks to integrate, remake, and modify normative language when necessary, and to distort language that allows a better perception of the present and of everything that is historically behind a contemporary poet.”The Paz Prize for Poetry is presented by the National Poetry Series and Miami Book Fair at Miami Dade College and is awarded biennially. Named in the spirit of the late Nobel Prize–winning poet Octavio Paz, it honors a previously unpublished book of poetry written originally in Spanish by an American resident.

    Wherever you’re from, from whatever background or class, no one knows  what goes on behind closed doors. The trauma and abuse I was brought up
     with from a young child has made me the person that I am today. It is like a branding iron put onto a developing mind. The scars you cannot see but dictate my every moment, others of you out there will know exactly what I mean. I hold no shame for what was done to me as a child.
     It has certainly given me more tolerance for other’s situations because of it. It has certainly made me more understanding. For all my adult life, I have suffered from mental health issues as a result. This itself has made me more empathetic with others. All these poems come from deep within. Some written from very dark places, others from hope and forgiveness, I’ve written many poems when I’ve had no one to talk to. Writing has always been there for me - it has always been my friend. 
    Forgive those that hurt you for it will only harm you. Love and good luck
     
    Braveheart.
