At the end of the Victorian era, a handful of public intellectuals advocated for tolerance of the 'Uranian'-a man who loved other men. Some went so far as to propose that these 'intermediate sexes' might, in fact, constitute a totally different species, even serve as intrepid guides in our march toward an uncertain future. The five speculative stories in Theodore McCombs's kaleidoscopic collection span several possible worlds, teasing the boundaries between coexisting realities and taking up the question of queer difference from one surprising vantage after another. Each story unfolds with the depth and complexity of an entire universe; each is inhabited by characters learning to divest from a society that has marked and rejected them. Discerning which dreams of Western civilization to hold fast to and which to leave behind, these outsiders set their gazes on new horizons and prepare for the changes to come. Arch but tender, clear-eyed and compassionate, Uranians brilliantly illustrates the vital role that queerness plays in every possible version of our world.

[Spanish] - La mula y el buey: Un cuento de navidad

'La mula y el buey' es un conmovedor cuento navideño de Benito Pérez Galdós en el que el autor juega con el contraste entre la felicidad de esas fechas, sobre todo para los más pequeños, y el dolor de una familia por la pérdida de su pequeña hija. Una historia triste pero impregnada de ilusión y esperanza cristianas que nos propone acercarnos a quienes viven la Navidad desde la pérdida y la ausencia. El autor combina también con maestría y originalidad un realismo naturalista con elementos sobrenaturales y fantásticos. 'La mula y el buey' es un cuento de Navidad y, a la vez, mucho más que un cuento de Navidad. Diseño de portada: David Rubiales 'La mula y el buey' is a touching Christmas story by Benito Pérez Galdós in which the author plays with the contrast between the happiness of these dates, especially for the little ones, and the pain of a family for the loss of their little daughter. A sad story but impregnated with Christian illusion and hope that proposes us to approach those who live Christmas from the loss and absence. The author also combines with mastery and originality a naturalistic realism with supernatural and fantastic elements. 'La mula y el buey' is a Christmas tale and, at the same time, much more than a Christmas tale. Cover art design: David Rubiales

[Spanish] - El viejo del Paseo de los Ingleses

'El viejo del paseo de los ingleses' es una emotiva novela breve de Vicente Blasco Ibáñez que cuenta, a su vez, muchas historias. Con la capacidad del autor para describir ambientes y caracteres, asistimos a una historia de amor, a la vida de la alta sociedad europea de principios del siglo XX, a la desaparición de la Rusia zarista con todos sus excesos e injusticias, a los primeros años de la revolución bolchevique, y a los ecos que todo ello tiene en las orillas del Mediterráneo, en la Costa Azul. A través de Fedor Ipatief, un personaje frívolo y tierno al que la historia ha dejado varado como un verdadero fósil de épocas pasadas, la narración nos deja melancólico testimonio, con una cierta ironía, de un mundo que quizá no nos resulte tan extraño, y de las vidas de muchas personas tan anónimas como reales, que encuentran su eco en la ficción de Blasco Ibáñez. Diseño de portada: David Rubiales Suárez. 'El viejo del paseo de los ingleses' is an emotional short novel by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez with many stories inside. With the author's ability to describe environments and characters, we witness a love story, the life of European high society in the early twentieth century, the demise of Tsarist Russia with all its excesses and injustices, the early years of the Bolshevik revolution, and the echoes that all this has on the shores of the Mediterranean, on the Côte d'Azur. Through Fedor Ipatief, a frivolous and tender character whom history has left stranded as a true fossil of past times, the narration leaves us a melancholic testimony, with a certain irony, of a world that perhaps is not so alien to us, and of the lives of many people as anonymous as they are real, who find their echo in Blasco Ibáñez's fiction.
