Sinopse

Esta edición incluye la siguiente introducción elaborada por el editor: Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, el impacto político e histórico de un gran literato con repercusión internacional 


Publicada en 1892, “La bodega" es una novela naturalista del escritor español Vicente Blasco Ibáñez en la que es evidente la influencia de Zola. Pertenece al grupo de las llamadas novelas sociales en las que el escritor refleja su preocupación por los problemas del país. En concreto, “La bodega” se sitúa en Jerez de la Frontera, ciudad del vino y de ricos terratenientes, y presenta al lector una fuerte crítica social a los señoritos que explotaban a los jornaleros, a la religión que ayudaba a mantener ese estatus, al propio vino que embrutece y nubla la conciencia del pueblo y al absurdo reparto de las tierras andaluzas.

“La bodega” centra la historia en Fernando Salvatierra, Fermín Montenegro, su padre, su hermana y su novio Rafael y las relaciones que mantienen con los amos y señores, los poderosos Dupont. A través de la familia protagonista, la novela describe con maestría la vida miserable de los jornaleros y gañanes de Jerez, siempre encorvados sobre la vid de sol a sol, por dos míseros reales de jornal, y tres raciones de pan al día sin ninguna esperanza de mejorar su suerte. Una esclavitud azuzada por el hambre que les agota toda su fuerza y vigor, y que debido a la mala alimentación a los treinta o treinta y cinco años parece que tuvieran cincuenta, no siendo contratados entonces, y prefiriendo los dueños de las viñas a los muchachos y muchachas muy jóvenes para seguir explotando lo único que tienen: su salud y juventud.

    Town Marshal "Bloody" Joe Mannion is back in this third high-action volume in Peter Brandvold's explosive western series! 
     
     
     
    When Jeremiah Claggett, constable of the nearby ghost town of Fury, is murdered by Frank Lord, the kill-crazy leader of a dozen wild outlaws, Bloody Joe has to come to grips with the fact that he's inadvertently to blame. Mannion had turned Frank's brother, Billy, over to Claggett for safekeeping, setting off the chain of events that end his friend's life. Mannion is the kill-crazy one now. Not realizing he's being shadowed by Clagget's beautiful, half-wild granddaughter, Justy, and an inscrutable saddle tramp, Mannion sets out on his vengeance quest. 
     
     
     
    In typical Bloody Joe style, he storms Lord's gang single-handedly, which nearly proves to be his undoing—until he's set upon by a mystery 'Man of the Lord' and given . . . something. Whether that something is good or bad Mannion has difficulty discerning. 
     
     
     
    Saints and Sinners is a crazy, dark, storm-ridden ride through the hell of the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado. Whoever manages to ride out alive—saint or sinner, or maybe a combination—will be changed forever, baptized in gun smoke and blood.

    That Dazzling Sun, Book 2 in The Tinsmith's Apprentice trilogy, continues the vivid coming-of-age story of Isaac Granger, slave to Thomas Jefferson, begun in Bechtel's marvelously adept debut novel, "A Partial Sun" in which Isaac begins his complicated apprenticeship at age fifteen as a tinsmith in Philadelphia in the fall of 1790.In this second book, Rachel Bringhouse, the tinsmith's daughter and Isaac's tutur, sails off to Englad to work alongside the famous social activist and poet, Hannah Moore, writing enthusiastic letters to Isaac and which Isaac answers back with assistance from the irrepressibly poetic cook's helper, Ovid. Meanwhile, Billey gardner, the feisty and opportunistic former slave of James Madison, pesters Isaac with notions of a business partnership; the charismatic Dr. Cornelius Sharp uses Isaac to confront Jefferson as a debt-ridden slaveowner; and the Reverend Richard Allen provides Isaac with a most surprising document.When an exuberant Rachel returns from England with a key insight and Isaac's hated nemesis Daniel Shady reappears, bent on revenge, the book rises to its crescendo, in which Isaac must rise to his own power and bargain at last with Thomas Jefferson on his own terms.
