¿Dónde están mis gafas?Where Are My Glasses?

María Pascual

The scatterbrained protagonist of this wordless tale can’t find hisglasses anywhere. Not under the table, not in the refrigerator . . .not even in his dog’s mouth, a repository for all sorts of things,from butterflies to mobile phones.

The lack of text makes this a perfect book both for kids notquite old enough to read as well as older children looking tostretch their imaginations.

Menosmal, porque un año les toca un verano tan abrasador, tan tórri-do, tan sofocante y tan insoportable que dependerá de la inge-niosidad de todos para enfrentarse a las consecuencias. Tocandolos temas del trabajo en equipo, el esfuerzo y la solidaridad, estecuento imaginativo entretendrá a los lectores mientras aprendensobre valores importantes.

Jane Austen

The Netherfield estate has a new tenant: Mr. Bingley, a youngman who is attractive, rich, and single—much to the delight ofhis neighbor, Mrs. Bennett, who wants nothing more than to findsuitable husbands for her five daughters. For Elizabeth, the mostindependent and rebellious of the sisters, however, Mr. Bingley isof no interest. Nor, at first, is his friend Mr. Darcy, whom she dismisses as arrogant and cold. Her opinion of him, though, mayyet change. With its air of comedy and social satire, this novelexamines the pressure placed upon young women in 18th-centuryEngland to marry well and is rightly considered one of JaneAusten’s greatest works.

Su opinión de él, sin embargo,podría estar a punto de cambiar. Con su aire de comedia y sátirasocial, esta novela examina las presiones que vivían las jóvenesde la Inglaterra del siglo XVIII para conseguir un marido ade-cuado y es considerada con toda la razón una de las mejoresobras de Jane Austen.

PalestinaEl hilo de la memoriaPalestine: The Thread of Memory

Teresa Aranguren

The social and cultural struggles that the Palestinian people havefaced over the last 60 years fuel this mosaic of historical experi-ences and milestones. The author shares her own memories andexperiences in Palestine and presents the interviews she conductedwith the elderly who were expelled from their land when the stateof Israel was established in 1948. She argues that it is the indiffer-ence of Western powers that has allowed the gradual erosion ofthe Palestinian state, and traces the development of what sheterms the “Zionist project” that began to develop in Europe in the19th century as she unravels history one thread at a time.

Las pruebas sociales y culturales a las que los palestinos se hanenfrentando durante los últimos 60 años avivan este mosaico devivencias e hitos históricos. La autora comparte sus propiosrecuerdos y experiencias en Palestina y presenta las entrevistasque hizo a los ancianos expulsados de su tierra cuando seestableció la nación de Israel en 1948. Arguye que la indiferenciade las potencias occidentales ha permitido la erosión del estadopalestino y traza el desarrollo de lo que denomina “el proyectosionista” que comenzó en Europa en el siglo XIX mientrasdeshace la historia hilo por hilo.
