Literary and critical perspectives about the science of getting right quick
by Luis Miguel Estrada
In 2020, amidst the whirlwind of the COVID-19 pandemic, the ideas from books about the science of becoming a millionaire returned to Luis Miguel Estrada whom, since he left a financial job, has dedicated himself fully to literature. In this book, he thinks some of the key questions raised by bestsellers from Napoleon Hill to Kiyosaki. Do we stop seeking money just because we pursue art? More importantly: regardless of what we do, how do we seek money? Why have narratives like positive thinking and the law of attraction become a universal language that gains strength during each economic crisis? Is there a link between bestsellers about the science of getting rich and great universal literature? This book attempts to answer these questions, beginning with the origins of books on becoming a millionaire, which delve into the agile 19th-century United States, transition through the fast-paced turn of the century, and explode in the years after the Great Depression. The journey continues with examples of wild successes (real-life fraudsters like Elizabeth Holmes or fictional criminals like Walter White from Breaking Bad) that prompt us to question the influence of success-at-any-cost ideas on popular culture, as well as their ethical limits. How can one reconcile readings, cultural products, and experiences that seem so distant? The broader reading audience responds more to "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill than to "The Grapes of Wrath" by John Steinbeck. Is there a way to read them alongside each other and emerge renewed from the experience? This book invites you on that adventure.

The Falling of Cardinal Points
by Luis Fayad Naffah
“The sayid Abderrahud spoke of the fortune that his son was going to seek, but warned him that he was thinking not only of the fortune of money but above all of tranquility and joy”. La caída de los puntos cardinales dares to imagine the journey of a group of Lebanese teenagers who, by chance, arrive in Colombia at the end of the 19th century. Traversed by a series of violent conflicts on both sides of the ocean, by the adaptation to life in the cities, the slow and confusing consolidation of the State, and the longing for technical and industrial progress, the novel accompanies the characters as they establish themselves in the social and commercial sphere of Bogota's middle class. In this story converge the different ways in which love matures and the friendships of those who migrate grow around the table and the game. For the characters, the learning and stumbling blocks of living in another language intermingle with the urgencies of the present, and the ties with the country of origin cool down and become knotted again in the nostalgia for the passing of time and the longing to live the best life possible. The impact of Lebanese migration to Colombia is in the language, manners and gastronomy of different parts of the country, but the stories of those who crossed the sea and made it their new home are not part of our everyday knowledge. This novel by Luis Fayad reminds us of the power of those lives, in Puerto Colombia and Teusaquillo, in Valle del Cauca and carrera séptima in Bogotá, with a subtle and sharp writing, to integrate them back into an idea of country.”

Sechs Aufgaben für Don Isidro Parodi). 1990 erhielt Bioy Casares den bedeutendsten Literaturpreis der spanischsprachigen Welt: den Premio Cervantes. Er starb 1999 in Buenos Aires.

Early learning / early learning conceptsOctober 2017Una cabeza distinta (A different head)
by Luis Panini, Chiara Carrer
This child tells us that he is not happy with the head that he has. He thinks it is a wrong head. The parents, after listening to him, take him to a specialist, who agrees with the little one. A mysterious man dressed in black supplies him with heads in exchange for his own. The child tries several, until he finds the one he was looking for. A reindeer head, a crocodile head, a whisk head: the narrator child and protagonist of this story tells us about his disagreement with the head he has and the vicissitudes that he has to go through to find the head with which he will finally agree: the head of a grown man, of a mathematician. This is a story of search for identity and growth, developed with fine fantasy and humor, with the wisdom of someone he has sought and perhaps already found.
