Crisis

ISBN: 9978-84-937178-6-5

This illustrated book by Virginia Pedrero Boceta and F. J. Rico Lombardo, both secondary school teachers, is a creative and visual contribution that places the CRISIS in its context and aspires to be used as an educational tool so that young people are capable of absorbing concepts lost in the over-information that surrounds us. "CRISIS" is a reflection on this great contradiction: the hyper-consumption of some and the extreme poverty of others (the majority.) This contradiction reveals the crude reality of how the Western crisis has not brought about even the most minimal reflection on our economic system, a system whose fundamental pilar is constant and perpetual growth of production and consumption, without taking into account environmental impact or the shortages experienced by the rest of the world.

English edition

St. Domingo de la Calzada, Engineer of the Land.
At last, a Reasonable Interpretation of the Rooster and Hen Miracle

ISBN: 978-84-937178-1-0

This biographical essay about St. Domingo de la Calzada that curious and devoted readers are holding in their hands clarifies some historical contributions to the life and miracles of this saint, constructor of bridges and roads, and driving force behind other civil works all along the Way of St. James. Additionally, the author proposes a new interpretation of the rooster and hen wonder based on books of entertainment and debased alchemy. And, he presents how several great authors have included the miracle in their writing.

The book is illustrated by Saturio Alonso, with colourful images of the saint, of the rooster and his vicissitudes in life. Mr. Alonso is a sculptor with broad experience in graphical design and painting who is living in Ireland from the eighties. During his professional stage in Spain, it was a component of the group El Cubri. He is a founder member of Artcore, counselor of KCAT, in Callan, county of Kilkenny.

In situ.
Watercolor- Haikus

ISBN: 978-84-612-5238-1

This art book is a generous invitation of the watercolorist Begoña López Benito. A woman petite and silent enough to take a landscape by surprise, she traps the moment with her brushes in Los Cameros, Valvanera, Islallana, in the no longer existing vegetable patches in Madre de Dios, and in Madrid's Retiro Park.
.
The book is made up of eighty watercolors and their respective haikus which share with watercolor a lack of artifice, an immediacy, and vitality. Begoña writes how she paints, with a sharp sensibility that survives in her writing. And with synesthesia and metaphor, she finds new shades to add to her palette. Playing with the haiku, she is able to transport us with sincerity and delicacy to the moment each watercolor was created.

The Solitude of Coffee

ISBN: 978-84-609-7290-7

The story of Nístrim is a journey of initiation into the hell of precocious maturity for a post-adolescent who dares to ask the great question of all self-respecting writers:

Is an existence possible that is distanced from the creative process?

From this taking-off point, Adriana Bañares has the generous courage to emotionally strip down and reveal what is inside her head, devoid of any type of papier mâché artifice with which others dress up their personalities to create biographies based on self-deception.

Adriana delights us with an emotional striptease where we play the part of privileged confidants of her existential doubts and fears. This is an extreme act of vital and literary sincerity, worthy of respect and appreciation during these times of spiritual and economic crisis.

José Manuel Vara, prologue
