About this listen
Una vez más, el autor nos hace disfrutar de la historia de México conociendo sus entresijos carnales y sus pasiones.
«Una prueba para demostrar que no me dejé impresionar por los comentarios adversos ni me importó que me llamaran irreverente, entre otros calificativos, por haberme atrevido a bajar de sus respectivos pedestales a los grandes protagonistas de la historia de México y por exhibirlos como figuras de carne y hueso con sus fortalezas y debilidades [...] Aquí está Arrebatos carnales II.»
Francisco Martín Moreno regresa con grandes hombres y mujeres de la historia y sus amores. Para abrir apetito comienza con la Güera Rodríguez, mujer hermosa y estratega audaz, en amoríos con Iturbide; también nos lleva de la mano por la alcoba de Diego Rivera y sus múltiples amantes, mientras vemos de perfil a una Frida Kahlo rompiendo moldes; otra mirada dura de las pasiones es la de Isabel Motecuhzoma, hija del gran Motecuhzoma Xocoyotzin, para seguir con la entereza de doña Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez y cerrar, como una gran cereza, con los arrebatos de don Lázaro Cárdenas.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Al publicar México negro, nunca imaginé que, a 35 años de distancia, miles de lectores seguirían leyéndolo. Tampoco supuse la catástrofe que significaría la burocratización de la energía en México: Pemex es la única compañía petrolera quebrada en el mundo. Su insolvencia financiera puede destruir el crédito público de México. Ha sido, con algunas excepciones, una cantera de bandidos. ¿De qué les ha servido la expropiación petrolera de 1938 a más de 50 millones de mexicanos sepultados, hoy en día, en la pobreza?

Christmas is the single biggest annual event on the planet, a time for merry-making, over-indulgence, peace, goodwill, and the occasional family row. It’s as comfortable and familiar as a pair of old shoes and yet still glittery and exciting. But what do you really know about it? It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.

The Roman gladiator has long been a figure of fascination.

We know that these men entertained Roman audiences by fighting in dangerous and often deadly games. But who were the gladiators? What were their lives like? And why do they continue to have such a strong hold on our imagination, centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire?
