Uno de los mejores libros del año, según Time, NPR, y The New Yorker

Las radiantes memorias definitivas de uno de los más grandes iconos de nuestro tiempo, ganadora del National Book Award: un canto a la creación, el amor y la esperanza

«No solo es una gran artista, es una maga, es decir, alguien en contacto con otros niveles de realidad». --William S. Burroughs

«Patti Smith es una diosa intergeneracional». --Montserrat Domínguez

«Dios susurra a través de una arruga en el papel pintado», escribe Patti Smith en estas extraordinarias memorias en las que, desde su primer recuerdo hasta sus actuales inquietudes, teje un inolvidable relato de una vida consagrada a la belleza, la música, la poesía y el amor.

Nacida en el seno de una familia de clase trabajadora poco después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, su infancia dickensiana transcurre entre desahucios y enfermedades, alternados con juegos y libros de cuentos que le abrirán las puertas de un mundo lleno de magia y sueños de libertad. Pronto descubre en Arthur Rimbaud y Bob Dylan los modelos para sus propios poemas y canciones, y en Nueva York, un nuevo territorio artístico donde formar una banda y componer discos tan legendarios como Horses y Because the Night. Amor y familia, pérdida y reconstrucción y, siempre, la escritura serán las constantes de una trayectoria vital impulsada por la libertad artística y el poder de la imaginación para transformar lo cotidiano en sagrado, lo común en mágico y el dolor en esperanza.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: TIME, NPR, THE NEW YORKER

The radiant definitive memoirs of one of the greatest icons of our time, winner of the National Book Award: a song to creation, love, and hope.

"Not only is she a great artist, she is a magician, that is, someone in touch with other levels of reality." --William S. Burroughs

"Patti Smith is an intergenerational goddess." --Montserrat Domínguez

"God whispers through a wrinkle in the wallpaper," writes Patti Smith in these extraordinary memoirs in which, from her first memory to her current concerns, she weaves an unforgettable tale of a life devoted to beauty, music, poetry, and love.

Born into a working-class family shortly after World War II, her Dickensian childhood was spent between evictions and illnesses, interspersed with games and storybooks that opened the doors to a world full of magic and dreams of freedom. She soon discovered in Arthur Rimbaud and Bob Dylan the models for her own poems and songs, and in New York, a new artistic territory where she formed a band and composed legendary albums such as Horses and Because the Night. Love and family, loss and reconstruction, and always writing will be the constants of a life driven by artistic freedom and the power of imagination to transform the everyday into the sacred, the common into the magical, and pain into hope.

A great volume with great Tarkin/Vader relationships
Format: Paperback
I am continuing to enjoy this ongoing series showing Darth Vader shortly after Episode 3. It's cool seeing Mon Cala prior to Imperial control. I like how there's a bit of a tie-in with the ongoing Star Wars comic series. There are also flashbacks to the Clone Wars era. I like this time period. Each jedi that evaded Order 66 is dealing with the new world in a different way. I also really enjoyed seeing a young Ackbar. There are two standalone issues included in this volume. First, there's a story that shows the relationship between Darth Vader and Tarkin developing into what we see in the original trilogy. The other is an Annual written by Chuck Wendig. This shows another interesting Vader/Tarkin dynamic. There are a bunch of great references that I love in this issue! Project Stardust. Geonosis. Krennic. Galen Erso. Overall, it's a really cool tie-in to Rogue One. Yet again, I give this volume of the ongoing Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith a 5/5.

A superb addition to the Marvel Darth Vader canon
Format: Paperback
An almost perfect run of comic books, focused around the Imperial assault on Mon Cala post-Episode III. Many familiar faces are here: Vader, of course; Tarkin; Ackbar; Palpatine; Rogue One’s Admiral Raddus; and many more, including Sith, Jedi, and clones (there’s a nice nod to Order 66). Charles Soule deftly weaves an intriguing narrative, fast-paced but also with plenty of depth. The art is also excellent. In addition to the main stretch of the story, the trade also contains the Darth Vader annual, an outstanding Rogue One story that caps things off nicely. Highly recommended reading for Star Wars fans.

Good for Darth vader fans.
Format: Paperback
This book was amazing. I prefribly like vol.4 more than vol.3. The writers of this book have outdone themselves again, another one of Vaders archaic stories and the book was in perfect condition. I highly recommend it.

Charles Soule's Series Continues to Impress and is Arguably the Best of Marvel's New Canon
Format: Paperback
Darth Vader leads the invasion of Mon Cala. With the Empire tightening its grip across the galaxy, Vader is dispatched by his master to the aquatic world of Mon Cala to track down a rogue Jedi who may be advising the planet's king. With the Inquisitors in tow, Vader and Grand Moff Tarkin face off with one of the first open acts of rebellion in their new Empire. Soule is at his absolute best with this series as he continues to explore a version of Vader haunted by his own inner goodness and memories of the past (the book does contain some references to events of the Clone Wars television show, but you don't need to have seen it to grasp the story). Likewise, his exploration of the seduction of the dark side is fantastic with a new Jedi target willing to use deception and war in order to light the sparks of a future rebellion. The final issue of the book may be one of the best Star Wars comics of the entire new canon with Tarkin hunting Vader for sport (on the latter's request oddly enough) across a desolate and hostile planet. The issue isn't what one expects but makes a great deal of sense when exploring the relationship between these two characters (while also explaining why Vader is so deferential to Tarkin during A New Hope). The final addition is a decent annual that sees Vader investigating the Death Star and sabotage of its construction. The annual isn't the best addition to the series (the artwork isn't up to the standards of the rest of the series), but it does introduce some intriguing ideas about Tarkin and Vader's relationship and the events that set up the Rogue One movie.
