Mi peor enemigo es mi compañero de apartamento ¿y ahora también mi novio? ¡Socorro! ¡El enemies to lovers con fake dating que estabas esperando! Si a algo está acostumbrada Martina Avellaneda es a convivir con Víctor Pardo, hijo de una de las familias más influyentes de Madrid. Lleva dos años compartiendo apartamento con él a pesar de no soportarlo porque la habitación gratis que le ofrecieron los padres de Víctor es mejor que pagar un alquiler desorbitado en la capital. Pero todo en esta vida tiene un precio. Víctor es insoportable, adora sacarla de quicio y fue el primer chico del que se enamoró por más que ella se niegue a admitirlo. Sin embargo, a lo que Martina no está acostumbrada es a que Víctor le pida favores. Especialmente, favores que impliquen fingir que son pareja. Víctor tampoco la soporta, pero es consciente de que no hay nadie mejor que ella para ayudarlo, por más que lo deteste. Todo se complica cuando la línea entre lo fingido y lo real comienza a desdibujarse. Sobre todo, cuando las cenizas de un amor adolescente resurgen. Entre Víctor y Martina nunca ha habido nada claro, pero ahora todo parece estar más confuso que nunca. Lo único que ambos tienen claro es que del odio al amor solo hay un favor. Concretamente, ese favor.

El autor apuesta a motivar y dar continuidad al diálogo. Da valor al inagotable recurso de la entrevista. Conocedor cabal como lo es de trayectorias y poéticas en el panorama de la literatura de su país, en su rol de entrevistador, actúa como fino cirujano que explora el centro álgido de algunos tópicos substantivos mediante una batería de preguntas concienzudamente establecidas para aumentar, constructivamente, la tensión del diálogo entre los poetas participantes, además de invitar al lector a pensar y crear juntos. Esta doble y noble intención la enfatiza con su afirmación de que este libro no se trata solo de una antología o un cuestionario sobre el quehacer poético, sino que, son las dos cosas interactuando, convencido como lo está, de lo que acá se resume y realza: “en el arte no hay linealidad" y “hay que interrogar lo ya dicho" Edda Armas

Spanning more than six decades and crossing continents, Norman Foster’s career is among the most influential in modern architecture. Distinguished by restless innovation and a holistic approach to design, his work has reshaped skylines and redefined how buildings respond to technology, society, and the environment. This monograph presents his complete body of work, from early collaborations with Richard Rogers and Richard Buckminster Fuller to the global superprojects that established his star status from the 1980s onwards. It also offers rare and fascinating glimpses into the evolving working environments of Foster + Partners, from a modest Hampstead flat in the 1960s to today’s vast, light-filled studio overlooking the Thames. Foster’s architecture is marked by inventive modernity and a long-standing commitment to sustainability.
