"Cosas que no se dicen en voz alta" es un entretenido compendio de diez relatos bastante únicos en su originalidad y presentación. Estos relatos no solamente nos envuelven en situaciones amorosas singulares, sino que las retratan de una manera auténticamente mexicana, dentro de su picardía y sus dosis de tragicomedia. Así nos encontramos con un gordo que decide bajar de peso por amor, con una secuestrada que se enamora de su captor y una despechada esposa que encuentra el mejor castigo para su oponente. Cargadas de erotismo, estos relatos también retratan a los cazadores y sus hábiles presas, lo cual nos lleva a preguntarnos quién es en realidad el hacedor de las situaciones amorosas; si él, que cree ser el que lanza el anzuelo, o ella, quien maneja la mano del pescador. En "Cosas que no se dicen en voz alta" somos partícipes de amores prohibidos y nos deleitamos con la imaginación de personajes que se atreven a ir más allá de lo que la sociedad permite, adentrándonos bajo las sábanas de tríos amorosos o en la imaginación de un escuincle y su primer amor. "Cosas que no se dicen en voz alta" es pues uno de esos libros que nos permiten experimentar lo que pocos se atreven a vivir, mostrando a través de algunos hechos que en realidad sucedieron, segun explica el autor, las consecuencias de los amoríos atrevidos y deducir con una sonrisa las ironías aprendidas entre susurros.--Ani Palacios, autora multipremiada y directora de Pukiyari Editores

Now they must deal with one such creature. A horror from the vocal histories of the First Nations People.

"'God made sex and He made it good.' This is a statement that would shock most people but not Laila - her candid approach to the topic is refreshing and much needed in this generation. If you want a biblical understanding of sex and a view of how God really sees things, buy this book." Pastor Marco Jacobs "Finally - a book that does not presume to teach us how we should have sex and how to become sex prodigies, but one that offers a good opportunity to learn about the cultural relationships and perceptions of other people like us. Their experiences push us to confront and reflect on what sex is for ourselves." Enrico Caporello - Doctor "The book scrutinizes the most crucial issues humans face with regards to sex and provides insight and deep knowledge around the subject. This is a perfect book for our time, and for both youngsters and adults: readers will definitely be captivated. It is doubtful many books have dealt as honestly and as enthusiastically with the complexity of sex as Laila Benzel has through this work." Mulalo Madula - Economist

A mediados de junio de 1720, una expedición integrada por dragones de cuera partía desde Santa Fe (Nuevo México) hacia el norte, para confirmar la presencia francesa en territorios de la corona española. Tras varias semanas de marcha, contactó con la tribu de los indios Pawnees en el centro de la actual Nebraska en los EEUU. El jefe de la expedición decidió retirarse y acampar a escasos kilómetros de la tribu, en la confluencia de dos ríos. Al amanecer del 14 de agosto, los nativos atacaron el campamento español. Tras los primeros disparos y andanada de flechas, los supervivientes formaron en círculo para defenderse de la agresión. Uno tras otro, como se espera de soldados españoles, vendieron caras sus vidas.Por primera vez se publican en español las páginas conservadas del diario del cronista de la expedición, el cabo Felipe Tamariz, uno de los pocos supervivientes.

They sold their house and everything in it to move into a truck camper. And they were not small people. Laura began her memoir in the summer of 1995, when she walked into a summer party and met the love of her life, Sasha. Their whirlwind courtship started them on an adventurous journey. Along the way, Laura created six careers and used frugalness and thrift to find financial freedom while battling anxiety. They looked at what they wanted before marriage and chose a path. That meant pooling their finances, paying off debt, and ultimately deciding to work half the year while traveling in a recreational vehicle (RV). There were a few distress signals along the way. The self-doubt and anxiety of job jumping as an environmental geologist, computer trainer, and small business owner gave Laura insomnia. Yet those experiences allowed her to follow her dream job: to work as a Park Ranger for the National Park Service. When she retired from the rat race of full-time work, she was 38. They lived in the truck camper of 24 square feet before the season of the bugs forced a change of RV. With a new-to-them fifth-wheel toyhauler, they found a togetherness few married couples find. There were still bumps in the road, no matter who was driving. So, Laura created a website and blogged about their travels, finances, and full-time living in an RV: Laura & Sasha's Excellent Adventure. It was her way of being creative in a small space. It allowed friends and family to see the beauty of national parks and remote nature areas few saw. This memoir presents their adventures to their twentieth wedding anniversary. Come along for the ride and learn how to do this lifestyle too.
