    "I also remind you that it was us women who held strong when everything was lost to get them out, because we women are fighters. Pass this on to the other 32."
    
    Excerpt from a letter by Marta Salinas, wife of miner Jonni Barrios.
    
    "What happens in the mine, stays in the mine," said one of the 33 miners trapped in the tunnel of the San José mining site in northern Chile. But that wasn´t the case. Writer Emma Sepúlveda traveled to the scene of the accident from the very beginning and stayed for weeks, until the rescue, interviewing the wives of the trapped miners who played a decisive role in bringing them back alive. She also spoke with union leaders, government authorities, local parliamentarians, religious representatives, psychologists, miners, and dozens of temporary inhabitants of Camp Hope who were part of this unique epic.
    
    With countless testimonies and privileged access to letters sent from the depths of the mine, the author reconstructs the hidden side of the story: the causes of the accident, the intimate feelings of those trapped, the frantic search, and the maneuvered rescue. This book brings to light what was left unsaid and debates what was done without thinking. It exposes the media-political manipulation of the operation and reveals the true heroes of the story.

    Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanack, first published in 1732 under the pseudonym Richard Saunders, is a seminal work in American literature that blends practical wisdom with sharp wit. Originally serving as an annual publication, the almanac offered readers a mix of weather forecasts, household tips, puzzles, and, most notably, a collection of aphorisms and proverbs that emphasized virtues like thrift, industry, and prudence. Many of these sayings, such as "Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise," have become ingrained in American vernacular. Beyond its practical content, the almanac provided entertainment through its humor and satire, often featuring fictional narratives and characters. Franklin's creation not only reflected the values of colonial America but also played a role in shaping the nation's cultural identity. The enduring popularity of Poor Richard's Almanack underscores its significance as both a historical document and a source of timeless advice.

    An engaging new translation of a timeless masterpiece about coping with the death of a loved one 
     
     
     
    In 45 BCE, the Roman statesman Cicero fell to pieces when his beloved daughter, Tullia, died from complications of childbirth. But from the depths of despair, Cicero fought his way back. In an effort to cope with his loss, he wrote a consolation speech—not for others, as had always been done, but for himself. And it worked. Cicero's Consolation was something new in literature, equal parts philosophy and motivational speech. Drawing on the full range of Greek philosophy and Roman history, Cicero convinced himself that death and loss are part of life, and that if others have survived them, we can, too; resilience, endurance, and fortitude are the way forward. 
     
     
     
    Lost in antiquity, Cicero's Consolation was recreated in the Renaissance from hints in Cicero's other writings and the Greek and Latin consolatory tradition. The resulting masterpiece—translated here for the first time in 250 years—is infused throughout with Cicero's thought and spirit. 
     
     
     
    Complete with an inviting introduction, Michael Fontaine's engaging translation makes this searching exploration of grief available to readers once again.
