A BOY NAMED TROUT (STRONGHEART, MERCY)
In 1976, in the fields of Northern New Mexico?s scrub grass and coyote fences, a twelve-year old boy named Trout searches for integrity in an increasingly volatile family that is free of moral inhibition. Trout takes it upon himself to protect his mute younger sister, Heaven, and seek out a better life for the two of them. All the while, he must avoid abusive anger of his parents. Before he can take action, a series of events fractures his family forever. Trout and his siblings are left to pick up the pieces and determine if they can ever manage to forgive their parents and each other. A Boy Named Trout is a story about inter-generational patterns of addiction and abuse, and the power of familial bonds to save us and destroy us. Set against the backdrop of the hippie movement in the 1960s and ?70s, when dictums such as ?If it feels good do it? guided personal philosophies, A Boy Named Trout examines the creation of social morality and looks at how one follows their own inner compass when it contradicts cultural norms. Ultimately an uplifting message of strength and love, A Boy Named Trout is an important s

NOCTURN. ANDANTE MORAT. SILENCI (GUAL, ADRIÀ)
El pes del simbolisme en l'obra de Gual és remarcable: el Maeterlinck llegendari, que es posa de manifest en 'drames musicals' com ara Nocturn, o el més realista, que és la base dels 'drames de món' com ara Silenci. En tots dos casos, destaca la presència del no-dit, el pes del secret i del silenci, l'expressió de les correspondències entre la natura i els 'estats d'ànima' o la intuïció de la mort. Amb la 'Teoria escènica' que precedeix Nocturn, Gual assumeix l'ideal wagnerià d'Art Total i defineix la síntesi de llenguatges com a 'conjunt escènic'. Aquest conjunt també s'aconsegueix amb el treball integrat dels actors, l'acord entre l'escenògraf i la idea global de l'espectacle o la reforma de les tendències interpretatives. Amb Gual, neix a Catalunya el concepte modern de direcció escènica.
TEATRO COMPLETO- EBOOK (GARCÍA LORCA, FEDERICO)
Dentro del monumental legado literario de Federico García Lorca (1898- 1936), el mismo que lo consolidó como un prosista de excepción y lo encumbró como uno de los poetas más relevantes del siglo xx, quizá sea en su vertiente como dramaturgo donde logró llevar más lejos su visión trágica del mundo. El suyo es un teatro descarnado y poético, tradicional y moderno al mismo tiempo. Marcada a partes iguales por la elegancia del teatro modernista y la aspereza del neopopularismo, la obra dramática de Lorca se desarrolla desde las farsas y las comedias de juventud, Mariana Pineda (1927) o La zapatera prodigiosa (1927), hasta las tragedias y los dramas de la madurez, Bodas de sangre (1933), Yerma (1934) o La casa de Bernarda Alba (1936). Todas ellas obras fundamentales de la historia de la literatura española y firmadas por un autor según el cual: 'El teatro es la poesía que se levanta del libro y se hace humana.' El presente volumen recoge toda la producción teatral de Lorca así como textos inacabados, apéndices, versiones alternativas y canciones.

UNA PARTE DEL MAL (DE LA VEGA, RAMÓN)
Dos parejas cuyos destinos se entrecruzan en una obra rápida, de diálogos afilados y con la ambición de dejar un mensaje. Una obra de estructura clásica, pero de tema profundamente moderno, de esa modernidad en la que se reconoce que nuestros placeres y tragedias se mantienen hoy como un eco inagotable de lo que vivieron, muchas veces con sorpresa o estupor, otros hombres y mujeres de otras épocas. El mal es el protagonista de la obra o, más exactamente, «el pequeño mal», por utilizar las palabras de uno de los protagonistas; en este caso Carmen, una joven comprometida y necesitada de justificaciones más altas, pero que, en el momento de concluir el libro, está a punto de quedar atrapada por aquel al que se opuso, por el único personaje que, en la obra, representa abiertamente la manifestación cotidiana del mal.
