¿Qué pasaría si se reuniesen bajo un mismo techo el Amor, la Cultura y el Poder?

Un autor «imparable de verdad» (Sergio Vila-Sanjuán, La Vanguardia) que «avanza a pasos agigantados hacia el pedestal de los escritores catalanes más leídos de todos los tiempos» (El Periódico).

UNO DE LOS TREINTA LIBROS IMPRESCINDIBLES PARA LEER EN 2022 SEGÚN LA VANGUARDIA

«¡Ese hombre es el horror! ¡Más que eso! Un infierno le habita, una vanidad criminal le guía».
Nadie ha estado jamás recluido en una prisión tan segura, tan lejana y tan inexpugnable como la que habita Napoleón Bonaparte tras su derrota en Waterloo. Todo el mundo sabe lo que ha ocurrido. Quienes lo rodeaban, hartos de su ambición sin fin y de los desastres sucesivos, han decidido tratarlo como lo que realmente es: un genio del mal. El lugar donde lo encierran se llama Santa Elena, un islote a miles de kilómetros de la costa más cercana, infestado de ratas y vigilado por la armada británica.

En la primavera de 1819, François-René de Chateaubriand y su amante, Delphine Sabran, se embarcan rumbo a esta isla perdida en mitad del océano. El gran escritor de su época y la marquesa de Custine quieren poner a prueba su amor como las parejas más famosas de la historia, como Marco Antonio y Cleopatra, como Romeo y Julieta, superando dos obstáculos enormes: una gran distancia y un gran adversario. Tras meses de navegación, ¿puede que haya un enemigo más temible para estos dos hijos de la aristocracia francesa? Tras su encuentro con el emperador que causó estragos por toda Europa, Chauteabriand y Delphine descubrirán aterrorizados que los monstruos pueden tener múltiples caras.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

What would happen if we were to find Love, Culture, and Power under the same roof?

A "truly unstoppable" (Sergio Vila-Sanjuán, La Vanguardia) author that "walks with giant strides towards the perch of the most-widely read Catalan writers of all time" (El Periódico).

ONE OF THE THIRTY MOST INDISPENSABLE READS IN 2022, ACCORDING TO LA VANGUARDIA

"This man is horrible! More than that! Hell resides within him; a criminal vanity guides him."

Nobody has ever been secluded in such a safe prison, so very far away and inexpugnable, like that of Napoleon Bonaparte after his defeat at Waterloo. Everybody knows what has happened. Those around him, tired of his endless ambitions and successive disasters, have decided to treat him for what he is: an evil genius. The place where he is locked up is called Santa Elena, a small island thousands of miles away from the nearest coast, infested by rats and guarded by the British navy.

In spring 1819, François-René de Chateaubriand and his lover, Delphine Sabran, embark on their way to this island, lost in the middle of the ocean. The great writer of his time and the Marquise de Custine want to put their love to the test like the most famous couples in history, like Mark Antony and Cleopatra, like Romeo and Juliet, overcoming two immense obstacles: a great distance and a great adversary. After three months of sailing, can there be a more fearsome enemy for these two descendants of French aristocracy? After their encounter with the emperor that wreaked havoc all over Europe, Chateaubriand and Delphine will discover, terrified, that monsters may have many, many faces.

Good product, brand new condition works as it should, feels sturdy, perfectly fine for watching content and gameplay. Battery lssts basically all day. Easy setup Color kind of shifts depending on lighting. Friendly advice, get a screen protector with a notch or pinhole cutout so your front mic isn't obstructed :).

Great ipad
Style: Wi-Fi, Size: 128GB, Color: Blue, Configuration: Without AppleCare+
I recently purchased the Apple iPad 11-inch with the A16 chip, and I couldn’t be happier with the performance. The speed and responsiveness are outstanding, whether I’m browsing the internet, streaming videos, handling work tasks, or using multiple apps at once. The 11-inch display is bright, crisp, and provides excellent color quality, making it perfect for watching movies, reviewing documents, and viewing photos. The battery life easily lasts throughout the day, even with heavy use. The A16 chip delivers smooth performance with virtually no lag, making multitasking effortless. Apps open quickly, and everything runs seamlessly. The lightweight design makes it easy to carry around, whether for business, school, or travel. The camera quality is impressive for video calls and document scanning, and the overall build quality feels premium, as expected from Apple. Overall, the Apple iPad 11-inch with the A16 chip is an excellent investment for anyone looking for a powerful, reliable, and versatile tablet. It combines speed, portability, and ease of use into one outstanding device. Highly recommended!

I got this to replace an old iPad Pro. It does everything my old pro did, except for having a smaller screen. Good value and set up and migration from old iPad was super easy. Good battery life and so far playing games on it haven't been an issue

Nice size with a nice clear picture. Replaced a very old iPad. Not all apps and things transferred like the iPhone. But very manageable with a little time. So far I am pleased with this iPad.
