        At Malinc Publishing House we have been publishing quality children's literature since 2012 and have strived for bigger literary diversity throughout. We are concentrated on publishing authors from the Spanish speaking countries and minority literatures' representatives connected with the Spanish culture such as Basque, Catalan and Galician writers. Books of less known literatures from Europe and elsewhere have also been published by Malinc Publishing House. Through the reading promotion projects we put academic knowledge into practice. Besides, we carry out courses for the mentors of reading and organize literary readings and visits of foreign authors. It is in this way that we raise general reading literacy, intercultural and linguistic competences and include vulnerable groups, especially people with dyslexia.

        Zwei Leben

        Gertrude und Alice

        by Janet Malcolm, Chris Hirte

        Zwei Leben ist ein höchst anregender und aufschlußreicher, ebenso unterhaltender wie eleganter biographischer Essay über Gertrude Stein und Alice B. Toklas. Unbefangen und respektvoll nähert sich Janet Malcolm ihrem Gegenstand. Während sie den bisher Stein-Fremden Lust auf Werk und Leben der legendenumwobenen Autorin und ihrer Gefährtin macht, hat ihr Buch auch den Kennern Neues mitzuteilen. So erfahren wir zum ersten Mal Genaueres über die Jahre des Zweiten Weltkriegs, die Stein und Toklas als Jüdinnen im nazibesetzten Frankreich verbrachten, nachdem sie sich bewußt gegen eine Rückkehr in die Vereinigten Staaten entschieden hatten. Stein sparte ihr Jüdischsein aus, sie verdrängte es, soweit sie nur konnte, und ließ sich von ihrem antisemitischen Freund Bernard Fay, der Zugang zu den höchsten Kreisen des Vichy-Regimes und zu Pétain selbst hatte, protegieren. Oder: Malcolm berichtet von ihren Gesprächen mit Leon Katz, dem einzigen, der Alice Toklas nach Steins Tod wirklich zum Sprechen brachte - auch über sorgsam Verschwiegenes wie eine unglückliche frühe Liebe Steins, die Eingang nicht nur in ihre Notizbücher, sondern auch in Werke wie The Making of Americans, Drei Leben und Q.E.D. (BS 1055) fand, was Alice Toklas noch viele Jahre später zu rasenden Eifersuchtsanfällen provozierte.

        Britain’s 'Mr X’

        Sir Frank Roberts and the making of British foreign policy, 1930-68

        by Jonathan Colman

        Over four decades as a diplomat, Sir Frank Roberts dealt with headline issues, including policy towards Germany during the years of appeasement, the Second World War alliance with the Soviet Union, the origins of the Cold War, NATO affairs, the Berlin and Cuban Missile Crises, European integration, and relations with the Federal Republic of Germany. Collaborating with the renowned American diplomat, George F. Kennan (the cryptonymous author 'X' of an influential 1947 article), his despatches from Moscow in 1946 shaped Britain's Cold War strategy. In 1954 he played an integral part in the diplomacy behind the rearmament of the Federal Republic and her incorporation into NATO, helping to build an enduring structure of transatlantic security. Roberts' career sheds new light on British foreign policy across an era in which Britain slipped from global pre-eminence to regional power status.

        trazando x (x times x)

        by Jill Hartley

        An intersection is an encounter, but also an unknown. The precise point where the intersection is both a here and now. Lines that randomly cross, X’s that from frameworks, Xs that warn, that structure, that trace and adjust, X’s to play or to step on, others that we twist and weave. ¿How many X’s can you find around you?
