Between the World and Me
Ta-Nehisi Coates - 2015-07-14
Рейтинг Goodreads
This thought-provoking work delves into American history and presents a powerful new framework for understanding the nation's current crisis. Through personal narratives and reimagined history, the author addresses the falsehood of "race" and its damaging effects on black men and women.

Сто лет одиночества
Gabriel Garcia Marquez - 2003-06-24 (впервые опубликовано в 1967)
Рейтинг Goodreads
Одна из величайших книг ХХ века. Странная, поэтичная, причудливая история города Макондо, затерянного где-то в джунглях, – от сотворения до упадка. История рода Буэндиа – семьи, в которой чудеса столь повседневны, что на них даже не обращают внимания. Клан Буэндиа порождает святых и грешников, революционеров, героев и предателей, лихих авантюристов – и женщин, слишком прекрасных для обычной жизни. В нем кипят необычайные страсти – и происходят невероятные события. Однако эти невероятные события снова и снова становятся своеобразным "волшебным зеркалом", сквозь которое читателю является подлинная история Латинской Америки…
