Reseñas
El Oct 27 2014, un lector dijo:
A modest little volume of only 122 pages, "Memorial" is just what its title suggests--a memorial to a simple peasant woman, the mother of the narrator. The narration is so moving and personal that it obviously has biographical roots. The life of northern Italian peasants in the mid-20th century is vividly portrayed, as is the life of the woman who, at the start of the book, has already died. As her deathly-ill husband struggles through his pain to complete an altar in her memory, the narrator comes to the realization that "only he who maintains the existence of death present before him proceeds in truth." With his words, the author has created his own memorial to his mother, just as his father struggled to memorialize her with the altar he creates out of copper and wood. The book may be difficult to get into because of its poetic and non-linear style, but the attentive reader who masters the rhythm of the narrative will be rewarded with a reading experience that will long give pleasure in remembrance.

Sobre Wonder Book
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children\'s paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost \"in the stacks\" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as \"1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores\", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan.
