        Arepas colombianas: técnicas profesionales de cocina

        by Carlos Gaviria Arbeláez

        Sweet, salty or with a neutral flavor, arepas, an essential food in the diet of Colombians, are the protagonists in this book, which compiles the preparation techniques of 60 different types of arepas.   From a dough that is assembled in different ways, either freehand, with a cutter, stuffed with double dough, stuffed with double arepa, cooked on the grill, slabs, pots, ovens or fried, the arepas that are prepared in the different areas of the country are arracacha, rice, corn, fermented corn, peeled and threshed corn; yam, potato, banana, wheat and cassava. Round in shape and variable in size, arepas, too, vary according to the secondary ingredients that are added, such as milk, butter, cheese, pork fat, egg, meat or pea.   Easy to prepare, hot or cold, arepas are delicious at any time of the day; with coffee or chocolate, they always go well.

        The Analyst

        by Brandon Rolfe

        Set in Victorian London, The Analyst follows a trail of intrigue in a realistic period setting reflecting a 'modern' scientific society that still drags a dark underside of squalid desolation. It tells of a grim struggle -- a tragedy -- of a man's sanity slipping away, gradually deteriorating to the point of him eventually going over the edge with horrendous consequences. His brain screamed. The room rapidly becoming claustrophobic, with the walls crushing in on his mind. If he remained here it would suffocate him, annihilate him. Destruction now reared up in his mind, a heaving black monster held back on naught but feeble leash. The novel is directed at the psychological conscience-probing mystery section of the fiction market, the main character's mental conflict, with its hauntingly mind-searching flashbacks, putting it into the Freudian/Hyde bracket.

        Vida que resurge en las orillas" (Life that resurfaces on the shores) compiles ten years of the work of Manuel Amador and the Women, Art and Politics Workshop, which has inspired dozens of collective actions to confront violence against women in Ecatepec and the rest of Mexico. The protagonists of these actions are co-authors of the book. The voices and images gathered in this book are one of the most important experiences for the construction of peace and justice through art in recent years. In this insistence appeared a pedagogy from the bodies and the art, a pedagogy of the performance against the damage and the mistreatment; a knowledge as answer before the destruction of lives, an alternative speech of human rights before the precarization and the silencing. Actions of performance that generate, from the body, a ritual... For justice and the knowledge that is born from those bodies, for hope and memory"".
