Product: Memorial de los libros naufragados: Hernando Colón y la búsqueda de una biblioteca universal (Ariel) (Spanish Edition)
Description: Cómo Hernando Colón, hijo de Cristóbal Colón, creó la primera biblioteca moderna y organizó el conocimiento al mejor estilo de la era digital.
El Memorial de los libros naufragados cuenta la historia casi increíble –pero completamente cierta– del hijo menor de Cristóbal Colón, Hernando, quien procuró igualar o incluso superar los méritos de su padre creando una biblioteca universal, la más extraña y variadísima colección de materiales impresos, desde libros, manuscritos y panfletos hasta estampas, folletos, partituras, pósteres de tabernas y un largo etcétera. Este enorme y curioso legado tenía para él un valor incalculable, porque le acercó a su objetivo de construir una biblioteca que lo abarcara todo, en un sentido nunca antes imaginado.
Conocido como el biógrafo más importante de Cristóbal Colón, así como por supervisar los primeros mapas modernos del mundo y visitar las principales capitales europeas en busca de libros, Hernando se nos revela en esta obra como uno de los primeros y más grandes visionarios, que cambió la forma de organizar el conocimiento, tanto por el carácter intuitivo con el que configuró la que fue la biblioteca privada más grande del momento como por la manera como organizó la información, con la que rompió todos los paradigmas y se acercó a lo que sería hoy, como dice Edward Wilson-Lee, el big data, la Wikipedia e internet.

In a life filled with meaning and accomplishment, Michelle Obama has emerged as one of the most iconic and compelling women of our era. As first lady of the United States of America - the first African American to serve in that role - she helped create the most welcoming and inclusive White House in history while also establishing herself as a powerful advocate for women and girls in the US and around the world, dramatically changing the ways that families pursue healthier and more active lives, and standing with her husband as he led America through some of its most harrowing moments. Along the way, she showed us a few dance moves, crushed Carpool Karaoke, and raised two down-to-earth daughters under an unforgiving media glare.

In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites listeners into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her - from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work to her time spent at the world's most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it - in her own words and on her own terms. Warm, wise, and revelatory, Becoming is the deeply personal reckoning of a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied expectations - and whose story inspires us to do the same.

Product: The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell: A Novel
Description: Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni’s coming-of-age story is, according to Booklist, “a novel that, if it doesn’t cross entirely over into John Irving territory, certainly nestles in close to the border.”

Sam Hill always saw the world through different eyes. Born with red pupils, he was called “Devil Boy” or Sam “Hell” by his classmates; “God’s will” is what his mother called his ocular albinism. Her words were of little comfort, but Sam persevered, buoyed by his mother’s devout faith, his father’s practical wisdom, and his two other misfit friends.

Sam believed it was God who sent Ernie Cantwell, the only African American kid in his class, to be the friend he so desperately needed. And that it was God’s idea for Mickie Kennedy to storm into Our Lady of Mercy like a tornado, uprooting every rule Sam had been taught about boys and girls.

Forty years later, Sam, a small-town eye doctor, is no longer certain anything was by design—especially not the tragedy that caused him to turn his back on his friends, his hometown, and the life he’d always known. Running from the pain, eyes closed, served little purpose. Now, as he looks back on his life, Sam embarks on a journey that will take him halfway around the world. This time, his eyes are wide open—bringing into clear view what changed him, defined him, and made him so afraid, until he can finally see what truly matters.
