Shelfology Book Pairing

by Markus Zusak

The extraordinary #1 New York Times bestseller that is now a major motion picture, Markus Zusak's unforgettable story is about the ability of books to feed the soul. It is 1939. Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier, and will become busier still. Liesel Meminger is a foster girl living outside of Munich, who scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can't resist–books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement. In superbly crafted writing that burns with intensity, award-winning author Markus Zusak, author of I Am the Messenger, has given us one of the most enduring stories of our time. From the Hardcover edition.

Dune relata la historia del planeta desértico Arrakis, única fuente de melange, la especia necesaria para el viaje interestelar y que además garantiza longevidad y poderes psíquicos. La administración de Arrakis es transferida por el emperador de la noble Casa de Harkonnen a la Casa Atreides. Los primeros no quieren abandonar sus privilegios, y a través de traiciones y sabotajes, destierran al joven duque Paul Atreides al duro entorno del planeta para que muera. Pero Paul podría resultar ser mucho más que un duque al que han usurpado su puesto... Su lucha se encuentra en el epicentro de un nexo de poderosas personas e importantes sucesos, y las repercusiones se dejarán sentir a través del Imperio.
