International Latino Book Awards 2025 - Mejor obra o colección de obras. MEDALLA DE ORO

«Debería estar en la lista de lectura de cualquier curso de Literatura Latinoamericana o Estudios Hispánicos.» --Comentario de los jueces del ILBA

Una selección esencial de la obra de Luis Rafael Sánchez, el escritor puertorriqueño contemporáneo más reconocido internacionalmente.

Esta "antología indócil" de Luis Rafael Sánchez, una figura clave de la literatura latinoamericana, atraviesa el cuento, la novela, la crónica periodística y el teatro de la mano de los profesores Luce López-Baralt y Aníbal González-Pérez.

Como señalan en su iluminadora introducción, además de abarcar la representación artística de la realidad nacional de Puerto Rico, Luis Rafael Sánchez opta por escribir "en puertorriqueño" cuando se lanza a traducir los complejísimos entresijos que conforman la colectividad nacional, colocando en un primer plano a los desposeídos, quienes estrenan en sus textos una "picaresca" entre la tragedia y la comedia, elevando a categoría artística el idiolecto popular de los marginados.

En estos textos, desde cuentos como "Que sabe a paraíso", novelas como La guaracha del macho Camacho, ensayos como "La guagua aérea" o una crónica de rabiosa actualidad sobre Bad Bunny, el lector encontrará razones de sobra para disfrutar.

Seeing the Creative Process for Graphic Novels
Format: Paperback
This is a fascinating look at the early creative processes writers do when they make scripts for graphic novels. The only down side to this book is it doesn't show any comparison between the scripts and the final product. I suppose that's part of the fun of this book is that you have to imagine the graphics just like the original artists did.

Great Comic
Format: Kindle
Wolverine is one of my favorite Marvel characters. He encapsulates the paradox for young adolescent boys. He’s everything we wish to be, and at the same time, everything we would be terrified to be.

A huge book that gives you the hero's beginnings.
Format: Hardcover
I own several Marvel Omnibus collections (Captain America, Miller's Daredevil run, etc) but I have to say I think this one is the biggest in terms of thickness. This has a serious page count, and is definitely worth the money you spend on it for size alone. Those coming off the Wolverine movie and interested in more of his back-story will enjoy most of this. The stories here are not put together in chronological order of publication, but rather in chronological order of when it supposedly happened in his life. That being said, it's odd that Marvel chose to leave out "Origin", since that six-part story would have made an obvious choice for the beginning of this collection. Instead, we start out with a number of "Weapon X" stories that are supposed to set the stage for his creation into a weapon. The stories are not easy to follow for a casual read, however. You'll have to invest time reading dozens of dialogue balloons over the constantly-resting pose of Logan with wires coming out of him. Not the best start they could have hoped for, but I can see the logic of it. The Wolverine/Kitty Pryde miniseries is also here for some reason. I guess its inclusion into the collection is for completist purposes, but it's not that great. Eventually, you reach the Frank Miller Wolverine mini-series that started it all and paved the way for his solo series later on. If you've read that one, you know it's a classic as we get more back story into his Samurai/Ninja training past (and it's also rumored to be the basis for the second Wolverine solo film if it gets made). This leads into the first 10 issues of his solo series as we meet Logan's "Patch" identity, his weird black "facepaint mask" costume, and the dark dealings of Madripor. The colors here are rich and vibrant. Those who were disappointed with the washed-out look of the "Essentials" collection of Wolverine stuff will find nothing but happiness here. The price is reasonable for what you're getting here. Let me say again though that this is a MONSTER of a book, so you won't be carrying this around for a casual read at the coffee shop. This is more along the lines of a serious collector book than those Essential volumes.
