Raff Minzer

From early age, Raff Minzer showed a particular inclination toward lasagna and books in the same proportion. On a typical day, you might find him with a good novel in one hand and a mug of black coffee (honey-sweetened) in the other, or imagining playing tug-of-war with the puppy he dreams of adopting (eventually).

---------------------------------------

Raff Minzer mostró desde pequeño una inclinación especial por degustar lasañas y libros en similar proporción.
En un día normal, es posible encontrarlo con una buena novela en la mano y un tazón de medio litro de café negro en la otra (endulzado con miel), o imaginando que juega al tira y afloja con el cachorro de perro que sueña con adoptar (eventualmente).

Edith Wharton

Edith Wharton emerged as one of America’s most insightful novelists, deftly exposing the tensions between societal expectation and personal desire through her vivid portrayals of upper-class life. Drawing from her deep familiarity with New York’s privileged “aristocracy,” she offered readers a keenly observed and piercingly honest vision of Gilded Age society.
Her work reached a milestone when she became the first woman to receive the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, awarded for The Age of Innocence. This novel highlights the constraining rituals of 1870s New York society and remains a defining portrait of elegance laced with regret.
Wharton’s literary achievements span a wide canvas. The House of Mirth presents a tragic, vividly drawn character s

A native daughter of Mississippi, she grew up and came of age during the height of the Civil Rights Movement and the Women’s Liberation Movement. Born and reared on a small cotton farm, she was influenced by two converging forces that would set the course of her life.

She became determined to take a stand and not accept the limits of that farm life nor the strictures of oppressive racial segregation and gender inequality. She aspired to have and achieve a different kind of life—not only for hersel
