¿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.

Great sunscreen
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the creamiest best sunscreen ever. It's not greasy and it feels like it's definitely moisturizing and goes on super smoothly.

Great all around sunscreen
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Love this product. I have dry skin and this is emollient but not greasy. Floats over my fave and feels just right while softening my fine lines. Light fragrance that’s not too much. I definitely recommend this for all skin types.

Itchy, red rash
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I suspect that they are lying about the ingredients in this product. I have never reacted to any skincare products except for chemical sunscreens. This product claims to be a mineral based sunscreen but I had a terrible reaction to it. I have an itchy, red rash all over my face and arms that's been taking days to improve. I can't help but wonder if they are not disclosing all of the components of this product. I will be returning this product and requesting a refund.

It really worked for me
I'm a cancer survivor am 56 years old, can't use fragrances or harsh chemicals and had a bad rash on my face for a long time. No medication worked. Tallow and Honey balm cleared my rash that was all over my face. It was very depressing because for a while I could not go out. Right now, as long as they don't change the formula and it continues to works I will be a repeat customer. I find the smell and texture great, it does not interfere with my allergies etc. I would reccomend it. I tried it first on a small section for about a week , then since I had no bad reactions I use it all over face. Morning and night. It is a great product, it has worked for me and I pray it works for you all as well. Good luck!!! Blessings and prayers.

Found the solution to my rashes
This cream is the best for skin rashes or dryness. It’s so easy to apply and your skin feels nourished immediately after applying it. It’s fragrance is gentle and not strong at all. It has helped my skin recover from the multiple rashes I had. I highly recommend it. It’s so gentle that can be used on a baby.
