Angelica the Great I Am


Book Description

I am pleased to introduce Angelica the Great I Am, an early reader book. It will inspire and introduce careers to elementary school readers, particularly those who are minority and come from low-income and first-generation families. In Angelica the Great I Am, a young girl magically discovers through her dreams her real purpose for living. So often children get lost within the information age where so much is absorbed. It often becomes difficult to find oneself, and it subsequently manifests into adulthood. At what magical point in time do children first learn to just appreciate who they are and later learn more about themselves and how their uniqueness contributes to the world? I envision this book to help children love themselves, to help children tap into their individual gifts and talents early in life, and to help children experimentally examine careers that will spark their fullest potential.

Angelica


Book Description

From the bestselling author of Prague and The Egyptologist comes a mesmerising, provocative novel. In Victorian London, lowly clerk Constance believes she has found her ultimate husband and protector in Joseph Barton. But after three miscarriages and the troubled birth of their daughter, Angelica, things begin to change. Constance starts to fear her husband’s intentions, his potentially murderous hatred of her, and his efforts to alienate her from their child. Sensing the presence of supernatural evil in the house, she calls upon a spiritualist to save them all. But is Constance right? In four sections, each taking a different character’s point of view, Angelica weaves a tapestry of parallel and sometimes conflicting interpretations of the Bartons’ tragedy. Nothing here is as it seems … Reminiscent of classic horror tales such as The Turn of the Screw and The Haunting of Hill House, Angelica is also a thoroughly modern exploration of identity, memory, and love.

Kalpa Imperial


Book Description

Ursula K. Le Guin chose to translate this novel which was on the New York Times Summer Reading list and winner of the Prix Imaginales, Más Allá, Poblet and Sigfrido Radaelli awards. This is the first of Argentinean writer Angélica Gorodischer's award-winning books to be translated into English. In eleven chapters, Kalpa Imperial's multiple storytellers relate the story of a fabled nameless empire which has risen and fallen innumerable times. Fairy tales, oral histories and political commentaries are all woven tapestry-style into Kalpa Imperial: beggars become emperors, democracies become dictatorships, and history becomes legends and stories. But this is much more than a simple political allegory or fable. It is also a celebration of the power of storytelling. Gorodischer and translator Ursula K. Le Guin are a well-matched, sly and delightful team of magician-storytellers. Rarely have author and translator been such an effortless pairing. Kalpa Imperial is a powerful introduction to the writing of Angélica Gorodischer, a novel which will enthrall readers already familiar with the worlds of Le Guin.
