Estados Unidos En La Prosa de Un Inmigrante / The United States in the Prose of an Immigrant: Selección Y Prólogo de Néstor Díaz de Villegas / Selecti: Selección Y Prólogo de Néstor Díaz de Villegas / Selection and Prologue by Néstor Díaz de Villegas"Esa de racista est siendo una palabra confusa y hay que ponerla en claro. El hombre no tiene ningn derecho especial porque pertenezca a una raza o a otra: dgase hombre, y ya se dicen todos los derechos". De "Mi raza".

"Esa de racista está siendo una palabra confusa y hay que ponerla en claro. El hombre no tiene ningún derecho especial porque pertenezca a una raza o a otra: dígase hombre, y ya se dicen todos los derechos". De "Mi raza".

"Sin alarde, y como quien satisface una función natural, depone este pueblo a los ambiciosos, impone a los honrados, expresa su voluntad, resuelve en justicia, sale, sin miedo a la lluvia, a ver en los boletines de los periódicos su decisión obedecida". De "Día de elecciones".

Los quince años de destierro que José Martí pasó en Estados Unidos le proporcionaron una perspectiva que abarca tanto el norte como el sur del hemisferio, una visión reflejada en su ensayo "Nuestra América". La selección de textos de este volumen imprime a "lo nuestro" martiano, un giro contemporáneo que incluye a la comunidad hispanoamericana en los Estados Unidos, personificada en Martí durante un período migratorio --la segunda mitad del siglo XIX-- frecuentemente ignorado.
José Martí Estados Unidos en la prosa de un inmigrante recoge textos de las "Escenas Norteamericanas", despachos escritos por José Martí para los diarios La Opinión Nacional, de Caracas, La Nación, de Buenos Aires y La Pluma, de Bogotá, entre 1881 y 1886. Incluye también sesenta y cinco fragmentos de La Sección Constante, su columna diaria de variedades para La Opinión Nacional, entre 1881 y 1882.

"Tanto en las piezas mayores como en las mínimas, vemos a un Martí que aprende al mismo tiempo que instruye, que no solo enseña a pensar bien, sino a vivir una vida de autorrealización. Ese doble propósito, expresado en una de sus frases más célebres, sirve de estímulo a la lectura de Martí en nuestro siglo: "Ser culto es el único modo de ser libre". Del prólogo de Néstor Díaz de Villegas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

An exclusive collection of Jose Marti's writings curated by Cuban author, Nestor Diaz de Villegas, including Marti's thundering accounts of political imprisonment during his teens.

José Martí Estados Unidos en la Prosa de un Inmigrante is a compilation of fragments from "Scenes of North America," as well as writings by José Martí for La Opinión Nacional, a newspaper in Caracas, Venezuela, submitted between 1881 and 1886. All of these fragments are set within the historical and social context, to which they belong, and analyzed as literary texts written in Spanish while Marti was living in the United States.

Marti chronicled sociopolitical events taking place in the United States at the turn of the 19th century. His writings thus offer detailed analysis of the scientific and technical discoveries taking place at the time, as well as his insights on cultural trends such as fashion, art, and social customs of the time. The historical events described by Marti find striking resonance in issues of the present day. He delves into issues of race, immigration, patriotism, identity, slavery, police and democracy, and even queer aestheticism, as well as providing unfliching observations regarding the figure and performance of the President of the United States and the democratic institutions of his time.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Fantastic writing and non-stop action
Format: Kindle
This is a promising, fantastic beginning to what will be a 4-book series. Some readers may be content to read only the first 2 books, but I think you'll find that the story is so good that you'll want to keep reading books 3 and 4. Book 1 is about omega Elvana's introduction to the "Starling" brothers and their search for another missing person, Kelly. It's a bit of a rocky start, with deception and betrayal a key element. Hardly an auspicious beginning. Each member has their own path and purpose in the pack. Their interactions and the resulting narrative are so well-written that I found it difficult to put down. There is a cliffhanger that will have you reaching for book 2 as you finish, so make sure you have it on hand.

Fun read
Format: Kindle
I'm not really into mafia books but I love Roxy Collin's other series so I decided to give it a try. It had the same great romance, spice, swoon-worthy characters and exciting plot that are her signature. Arben was my favorite, although it was a bit sudden how quickly he changed from ignoring her to wanting to be pack. There were almost too many twists/layers of lies to keep track of but I'm looking forward to reading the other books. The only thing that detracted from the story for me was the need for a bit more proofreading. It was mentioned that Kelly is a female and male at different points, leading me to think she changed her mind at some point about the character's gender but didn't go back and edit it to align in all places. Like another reviewer pointed out, step siblings are different than half siblings. They are incorrectly referred to as step siblings because they (allegedly) share the same biological dad. There are a few other typos as well but those aren't a big deal.
