“A ticket for an amusement park ride that enters a tunnel where we don’t know what we may find. A guessing game that traverses both worlds. A challenge for the imagination and for the encyclopedic audiophile spirit which lies dormant inside of us, waiting to come out and play at a mere snap of the fingers...” Alberto Montt

    This book-report, reveals for the first time the truth behind the assassination of Eduardo Frei Montalva, carried out on January 22, 1982, which constitutes the first assassination of a President of the Republic in Chile. The criminal conspiracy, unique in the republican history of the country, uncovered by painstaking, laborious scientific and judicial investigation, incriminating four doctors and two intelligence agents linked to the National Information Center (CNI) and the Army Intelligence Directorate (DINA). The criminals used Thallium and Mustard to slowly and dramatically poison the mega-leader who opposed the dictatorship, unlike other crimes with chemical substances of instantaneous effect – Sarin Gas, Botulinum Toxin and other neurotoxins – which were manufactured both in DINA barracks and in the Army's Bacteriological Warfare Laboratory, within the framework of the so-called ANDREA plan. to exterminate political opponents and fight invading armies. All these episodes of blood are crossed by the same common thread: The extermination brigades or "brigades of hell" – called "Lautaro", "Purén", "Mulchén", "Avispa", "Political-Union Brigade" – created and formed by the military dictatorship are active in all of them. Two clandestine central committees of the Communist Party—Victor Diaz and 23 other men and women—were poisoned with Pentothal injections by two "death nurses," hanged, asphyxiated, burned with blowtorches, dismembered, and then thrown into the sea from helicopters. The assassination attempt - according to the author of the book - took place in Operating Room No. 1 of the Santa María Clinic, where the former Head of State was reoperated on by a group of four military doctors, among which was a DINA-CNI agent belonging to the sinister "London Clinic". Several of the agents of the extermination brigades were taken out of the country by a legal-military strategy and experienced in their own flesh the murderous fury of their own comrades. As happened to the biochemist Eugenio Berríos Sagredo, creator by order of the Army of the arsenal of chemical weapons, which is why he was eliminated to prevent him from revealing crimes, such as assassination, in the framework of an operation in Argentina and Uruguay directed by two generals and financed with two million dollars.

    Missing is a hybrid novel that blurs the lines between fiction and autobiography, in which Chilean author Alberto Fuguet investigates the mysterious disappearance of his uncle Carlos, who vanished from the family decades earlier. The narrative follows Fuguet’s journey—both physical and emotional—as he pieces together fragments of memory, interviews, and speculation to reconstruct his uncle’s life and possible fate. Set between Santiago and the vast landscapes of the American Southwest, the novel explores themes of exile, identity, and the haunting presence of absence. It is a deeply personal and introspective work that reflects on how people can vanish not only from places but from memory itself

    Inspired by the life story of Palestinian artist, Tamam Al-Akhal, The Lilac Girl is the sixth book for younger readers by award-winning author, Ibtisam Barakat. The Lilac Girl is a beautifully illustrated short story relating the departure of Palestinian artist and educator, Tamam Al-Akhal, from her homeland, Jaffa. It portrays Tamam as a young girl who dreams about returning to her home, which she has been away from for 70 years, since the Palestinian exodus. Tamam discovers that she is talented in drawing, so she uses her imagination to draw her house in her mind. She decides one night to visit it, only to find another girl there, who won’t allow her inside and shuts the door in her face. Engulfed in sadness, Tamam sits outside and starts drawing her house on a piece of paper. As she does so, she notices that the colors of her house have escaped and followed her; the girl attempts to return the colors but in vain. Soon the house becomes pale and dull, like the nondescript hues of bare trees in the winter. Upon Tamam’s departure, she leaves the entire place drenched in the color of lilac. As a children’s story, The Lilac Girl works on multiple levels, educating with its heart-rending narrative but without preaching, accurately expressing the way Palestinians must have felt by not being allowed to return to their homeland. As the story’s central character, Tamam succeeds on certain levels in defeating the occupying forces and intruders through her yearning, which is made manifest through the power of imaginary artistic expression. In her mind she draws and paints a picture of hope, with colors escaping the physical realm of her former family abode, showing that they belong, not to the invaders, but the rightful occupiers of that dwelling. Far from being the only person to have lost their home and endured tremendous suffering, Tamam’s plight is representative of millions of people both then and now, emphasizing the notion that memories of our homeland live with us for eternity, no matter how far we are from them in a physical sense. The yearning to return home never subsides, never lessens with the passing of time but, with artistic expression, it is possible to find freedom and create beauty out of pain.

    Wie kaum eine andere europäische Metropole hat Barcelona in den letzten Jahrzehnten den Stadtreisenden angezogen, den Flaneur mit wachem Blick, den die Stadt als ein lebendiges Ganzes interessiert - wo der architektonische Reichtum nur ein Ausdruck des pulsierenden Drangs ist, in der Gegenwart zu leben. Barcelonas ungebrochene Vitalität, die das Alte kontinuierlich in ein Lebensgefühl für das Neue einbettet, ist am stärksten in den Zeugnissen aus der Epoche des katalanischen Modernisme zu finden, in der die Stadt regelrecht explodiert ist. Zwischen der Weltausstellung von 1888 und dem Ersten Weltkrieg erlebte die "unspanischste Stadt Spaniens" abseits der politischen Turbulenzen einen ungeheuren ökonomischen Aufschwung. Intellektuelle Widerspenstigkeit und erstarktes bürgerliches Selbstbewußtsein, Innovationen in den Künsten, radikale Änderungen im Verhaltenskodex, krasse soziale Ungleichheiten - Barcelona erfuhr den Umbruch zur Moderne früher und bewußter als manch andere europäische Großstadt. Wie diese Stadt mit der alles umfassenden Strömung des Modernisme, der stilistisch starke Parallelen zum Jugendstil hat, sich selbst "ein Bild" gab, um dieser neuen Zeit zu entsprechen, das erzählen und zeigen Cristina und Eduardo Mendoza anschaulich. Darüber hinaus ist ihr reichillustriertes Buch eine Kulturgeschichte dieser europäischen Metropole im Übergang vom 19. zum 20. Jahrhundert.

    Pablo Jofre’s Entre tanta calle (Street by Street), includes 5 different poetry collections written between 2006 and 2020: Beginning with an abecedary inspired by Flaubert's 1911 Dictionary of Received Ideas and traversing across a fragmentary travelogue recounting the poet's overland journey from Berlin to Manila, the books collected in Street by Street, represent Pablo Jofré's writers chronicle, the lived experience of the poetic nomad, heir to the grand tradition of Chile's diaspora writers, from Mistral to Wilms Montt. Praised by Will Alexander, who writes that his "condensed verbal scale" seems to have "sprung whole cloth from un-corrupted verbal ether," in these poems Jofré relishes his sexuality, explores the confines of gender, and embraces his status as a literal alien with alternating melancholy and amusement. Born in Santiago de Chile, Pablo Jofré is the most international Chilean poet of his generation and one of the most translated from Latin America.
