By: Murray Hill Records
Apparently, Murray Hill records was a subsidiary of Random House, and mainly re-released excellent material. Other sources claim this boxed set was released in 1970. Gorgeously recorded. My pressing is quite good — I can not remark on the condition of those at this library. Interesting academic material in the liner notes.

I think this book gives a great view into the life of an impressionable teenage girl suddenly immersed in the world of illegal drugs. Kristina starts using meth after a short stay at her estranged father’s home. She continues to use it for recreation purposes but soon develops a dependency on it and what was left of her previous life disappears. Make sure to read the sequel, “Glass”. Kristina’s life get’s even worse.

Fantastic resource for those entering into the field of electrochemistry, and for those who are in need of a quick refresher on specific topics. A nice compliment to Electrochemical Methods by Bard.

I was assigned this book as a class assignment, and I must thank my professor heartily for it. This book has quickly become a favorite, and I have encouraged several people to read it, including my husband. He read it in a week and agreed that it was an extraordinary book.

By: Gonzlez Nohra, Fernando
La primera publicación de Fernando González Nohra se compone de seis relatos. Lo curioso es que puede funcionar como una novela elíptica, plagada de silencios en los que el lector es envuelto y las respuestas le son concedidas en pequeñas referencias que interconectan temporalmente los cuentos. Así, vemos una evolución temporal de la obra como un sucedáneo de capítulos que no traicionan el sentido de ninguno de ellos. Por ello, a diferencia de otros libros de estilo semejante, es preferible leerlo en el orden trazado por el autor y no adelantarse «… para no perder el paso».
En Por favor, no empujen el humor ácido es el pretexto para mostrar la verdadera soledad de Gonzalo, personaje principal y narrador de sus desencuentros, que vive en una ciudad como Lima, donde es testigo a diario de «cómo la neblina que subía por el acantilado se iba tragando de a pocos la ciudad». Un lugar en el cual todos parecen caminar en su contra: «Los pocos que caminan en mi dirección lo hacen tan lento que se convierten también en un estorbo, tengo que esquivarlos para no perder el paso». Un reflejo vital de lo que significa vivir en un país divorciado de sí mismo. Donde los conflictos no sólo habitan en lo hondo de la pobreza, sino que se presentan a cada esquina como reiterando, una y otra vez, que permanecerás «vivo y vacío» (paráfrasis usada por Gonzalo con respecto a Henry Miller).
El estilo narrativo del autor es frugal; no ahonda en extravagancias. Su lenguaje transmite el habla limeña sin ambages. Para el autor es vital que se deje hablar a los personajes, y esto se logra en Por favor, no empujen. Gonzalo jamás deja de ser él, jamás permite que la vida y los personajes estrafalarios —sátiras de una sociedad exagerada como la limeña— mellen en él. Seguirá intentando escribir, que en este caso es lo mismo que intentar sobrevivir.

To say that diversity in sexual identity is caused by a disorder is wrong and offensive. The author should reconsider the implications of his syntax.
