Paperback. Condition: Good. International Latino Book Awards 2025: Libro más inspiracional no ficción en español. MEDALLA DE ORO * Mejor biografía. MEDALLA DE BRONCE «¡Bien escrito! No pude dejar de leer. Temas importantes: Parkinson y eutanasia. Recomendaré este libro.» --Comentario de los jueces del ILBA Me lo dijo sin preámbulos, pero no me tomó por sorpresa. A principios de 2022, mi padre, Carlos Alberto Montaner, me encomendó la misión más difícil y dolorosa de mi vida: «Te pido que me ayudes a morir». Más de seis años después de ser diagnosticado en Estados Unidos con Parkinson, sus capacidades físicas habían mermado considerablemente y la enfermedad comenzaba a hacer mella en sus facultades cognitivas. Carlos Alberto Montaner, que había dedicado su vida al desempeño intelectual, el activismo político y a expresar sus opiniones en una columna sindicada en América Latina, España y Estados Unidos, decidía el final de su vida antes de que la enfermedad le arrebatara del todo su autonomía física e intelectual. Él deseaba regresar a Madrid, donde había vivido más de cuarenta años y, como ciudadano español, acogerse a la Ley de Eutanasia recientemente aprobada en el Congreso. Deséenme un buen viaje es una crónica íntima de su trayectoria sin retorno, y la de su hija junto a él, con el trasfondo de la eutanasia. Se trata de un camino lleno de obstáculos e incertidumbre; pero también es un recorrido extraordinario por las emociones, la comunión íntima y la perseverancia frente a la adversidad. Cuenta un viaje del desarraigo -las señas de identidad de una familia marcada por el exilio tras el triunfo de la revolución en Cuba- hacia el arraigo que significó para ellos retornar a España, su segunda patria. «Gina Montaner ha escrito un credo imprescindible para entender la vida y valorar la muerte. Valiente, sincero y conmovedor. No dejará a nadie indiferente por sus enseñanzas y su sabiduría» --Sonsoles Ónega ENGLISH DESCRIPTION International Latino Book Awards 2025: Most Inspirational Nonfiction Book. GOLD MEDAL * Best Biography. BRONZE MEDAL «Well written! I couldn't stop reading. Important topics: Parkinson and euthanasia. I will recommend this book.» --Insight from the ILBA judges He told me without preamble, but it didn't catch me by surprise. At the beginning of 2022, my father, Carlos Alberto Montaner, gave me the hardest and most painful mission of my life: "I'm asking you to help me die." Six years after being diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, his physical and cognitive abilities had decreased considerably. Carlos Alberto Montaner, who had dedicated his life to intellectual pursuits, political activism, and to expressing his opinions through a syndicated column in newspapers throughout Latin America, Spain, and the United States, had decided to end his life before his illness took away the last of his autonomy. He hoped to return to Madrid, where he had lived for over forty years and, as a Spanish citizen, abide by the Law of Euthanasia recently approved by the Spanish Congress. Deséenme un buen viaje (Wish Me a Good Journey) is the intimate chronicle of a trip with no return. It is a journey of obstacles and uncertainties, but also an extraordinary retelling of vibrant emotions, intimate camaraderie, and perseverance in the face of adversity. This book tells a story of uprooting--the distinctive flag of a family that was exiled from Cuba after the triumph of the revolution--and of their return to Spain, their adopted homeland. «Gina Montaner has written an essential creed to understand life and value death. Brave, sincere and moving. She will not leave anyone indifferent to his teachings and his wisdom.» --Sonsoles Ónega.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Hace más de 500 años, en unas circunstancias totalmente diferentes, Maquiavelo redactó EL Príncipe para describir la conducta que debía tener la autoridad con el objeto de sujetar el poder firmemente. Este libro va dirigido a los presidentes y, muy especialmente, a quienes deben elegirlo. Está concebido para una época, la nuestra, en la que prevalece la democracia liberal y la que convencer es mucho más importante que vencer. El presidente tiene tres partes, la primera parte (Presidentes) es una reflexión sobre las características que debe tener esa persona que tiene la responsabilidad de dirigir los destinos del país y una descripción de cómo son y cómo funcionan los Estados más prósperos y felices del planeta. La segunda parte (Cómo se llega a la presidencia) es una incursión en la técnica electoral y la tercera parte, (Cómo se es un buen presidente) ofrece consejos, sugerencias y observaciones. Desde cómo y por qué elegir a los miembros del gabinete, hasta lecciones elementales de economía política. También incluye una advertencia contra los enemigos permanentes del buen gobierno: la corrupción y las supersticiones marxistas y populistas * Carlos Alberto Montaner ha escrito 30 libros y miles de artículos. Es analista político de CNN en español.* La revista Foreign Policy lo ha calificado como uno de los 50 comunicadores más influyentes de la lengua española. * Un libro dirigido a los interesados en la política y la situación actual. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION More than 500 years ago, in totally different circumstances, Machiavelli wrote The Prince to describe the ways that authority figures should behave with the objective of firmly grasping power. This book is directed to presidents, and especially to those who must elect them. It is conceived of for a time--ours--in which liberal democracy prevails and in which it is much more important to convince than to defeat. The President has three parts: the first part ("Presidents") is a reflection about the characteristics that the person responsible for directing the country's destiny should have, and a description of what the most prosperous, happiest states on the planet are like and how they work. The second part ("How one gets to the presidency") is an investigation into the electoral process, and the third part ("What a good president is like") offers advice, suggestions, and observations, from how and why to choose cabinet members to basic political economy lessons. It also includes a warning about the enemies of good government: corruption, and Marxist and populist superstitions. * Carlos Alberto Montaner has written 30 books and thousands of articles, and is a CNN en español analyst. * Foreign Policy magazine has rated him one of the 50 most influential communicators in Spanish. * A book directed at those interested in politics and the current situation.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. El amor, la traición y la muerte en la Guerra Fría Es el año 1947, y Rafael Mallo, escritor trotskista formado en Moscú, está preso en una cárcel franquista, en la agónica espera de que lo fusilen. Lleva siete años encerrado. Sorprendentemente, lo ponen en libertad y se reencuentra con una antigua amante, Sarah Vandor, con quien vivió una relación tormentosa. Es el comienzo de la Guerra Fría. La URSS y Estados Unidos se enfrentan secretamente en el terreno de las ideas, pero eso no excluye que, literalmente, rueden algunas cabezas. Tiempo de canallas es un thriller político, es el recuento de una época, y es, además, una historia de amores y traiciones con un inesperado final. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The year is 1947. Rafael Mallo, prisoner in a Francoist penitentiary, is waiting in agony for his execution. A Trotsykist writer educated in Moscow, he has been locked up for seven years. Surprisingly, though, he is freed, and he is soon reunited with a former lover, Sarah Vandor. They had--and now resume--a stormy relationship. It's the beginning of the Cold War. The USSR and the United States are secretly opposed in the land of ideas, but that doesn't mean that heads won't literally roll. Who is behind these crimes? It's difficult to know. Time of Scoundrels tells it all. It's a political.…
