Five Book Friday: In Memoriam
(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are.

Plot How To Build Short Stories & Novels
by
Ansen Dibell
Rafael Juarez
, March 13, 2007
This book is really good if you are a beginner or a medium experienced writer. Dibell explanations of the plot mechanisms are extremelly clear. With this book most readers could understand that stories are constructed considering the effects that the author wants to produce in the reader, such effects are predetermined and skillfulled organized to work as a whole in the readers mind. The book includes clear, good examples that anybody can know easily.

The Catcher in the Rye
by
J. D. Salinger
Rafael Juarez
, April 09, 2006
Nobody can deny the influence of this book in the history of the literature. In M?xico a complete generation of writers was identified as Salinger's followers. The fresh style of this novel is really enjoyable. I remember that this book was voted within the 10 best books of the past century. Salinger's short stories are very recommendable too.

Ecce Homo Clasicos De La Literatura
by
Friedrich Nietzsche
Rafael Juarez
, April 09, 2006
Nietzsche always invites to think. You can coincide with him or not, but you will think. Ecce Homo is the summary of all Nietzsche's works prepared by himself. Who will be better than him to explain his ideas? A year later of Ecce Homo's elaboration he became crazy.

Writers Mind Crafting Fiction
by
Richard Cohen
Rafael Juarez
, April 09, 2006
I have read several books regarding the writing processes and, by far, this is the best. The presentation of the themes, the examples, exercises and biblography are excellent. Furthermore, the book is very amicable to read.
