About this listen
Irónica, desencantada y llena de humor, La tumba relata la vida de un adolescente extraviado.
"La tumba es una de las obras que liquidarán el pasado. Una novela extraordinaria." (Juan Rulfo)
Una de las obras esenciales de la literatura mexicana del siglo XX, publicada en 1964 y considerada la primera novela de la literatura de la Onda en Latinoamérica.
Irónica, desencantada y llena de humor, La tumba relata la vida de un adolescente extraviado. Novela de iniciación que inauguró una nueva etapa de la literatura mexicana, en la cual los jóvenes, su lenguaje y su furia tienen un peso central y decisivo.
"Un testimonio sincero, espontáneo, que ayuda a comprender el fenómeno de una adolescencia en búsqueda. Un libro que abre signos de admiración para un nuevo novelista." (Vicente Leñero)
"Un escupitajo a las buenas conciencias que inventaron rebeldes sin causa...el libro lúcido y emocionante de una generación." (Gustavo Sainz)
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Historia de un amor imposible, Las batallas en el desierto es un magistral audiolibro que involucra otros aspectos como la corrupción social y política, el inicio del Mexico moderno y la desaparición del país tradicional, y el rescate de las memorias individuales y colectivas de una ciudad a la que José Emilio Pacheco ama profundamente, pero recrea sin nostalgia y denuncia de manera implacable.

Story
Este libro es un clásico de la literatura mundial y posee el mérito histórico de haber iniciado la novela sobre la Revolución Mexicana de 1910; la obra muestra desde dentro las fuerzas de lo que entonces se llamó "la bola": los desposeídos levantados para la revuelta. La novela arranca con el grupo armado de Juchipila, un poblado al sur de Zacatecas, y cierra, como epílogo de la narración y un símil de la suerte misma de la Revolución, cuando la ciudad es tomada por las tropas carrancistas.

Story
La hipotética presencia de una grabadora, de un interlocutor (o de un "lector"), sirve de pauta para un largo monólogo a través del cual desfilan momentos de una vida en los bajos fondos y submundos de la ciudad de México. La adolescencia prematura, la presión social, la homosexualidad, la prostitución, la enfermedad y el hastío son las etapas, vistas retrospectivamente, de la vida de este vampiro urbano.

Story
Novela de amor de una intensidad sobrecogedora, aborda con su mordaz sentido del humor la distancia entre México y Estados Unidos, el amor, la ira y la complejidad de las relaciones de pareja y el antimachismo. Con una prosa ágil y desenfadada, José Agustín traza el destino de Eligio y Susana en un mundo gris, superficial, aunque capaz de torcer el rumbo de cualquiera. El retrato de los personajes, a todas luces entrañables, y la manera como la prosa se extiende sobre la geografía y la relación amorosa, hacen de Ciudades desiertas una gran novela.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa. It’s a story that begins with his mother throwing him from a moving van to save him from a potentially fatal dispute with gangsters, then follows the budding comedian’s path to self-discovery through episodes both poignant and comical.

Story
Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

Story
Separated by 10 years, 3,000 miles, and the unrelenting stresses of adulthood, best friends Janet and Serena plan a 40th birthday girls’ trip to reconnect. But after a massive crash, they’re the only survivors to wash ashore on an uncharted Caribbean Island. Armed with only the clothes on their backs and zero survival skills, they fight to overcome hunger, thirst, deadly wildlife—and most terrifyingly—decades of accrued resentment. Can they find their way home, or will they kill each other first?

Story
We all have things in our life that we should know by now, but don’t. Absences in our knowledge and skillset that are frankly shameful in an adult. Things that would be too embarrassing to ask anyone to explain – except our very best friend. Listen in as Mel and Sue tackle their ignorance head on, asking each other to explain something that they still don’t know - but absolutely, as adults, should - from how to parallel park to fully understanding bread (why has it got all those holes in it? What, honestly, is yeast?).
