Un retrato estremecedor, empujado por una autenticidad feroz, acerca de la vida matrimonial, la vejez y los vínculos familiares.«En la escritura de Piedad Bonnett se concentran las virtudes que más admiro en la literatura: profundidad y concisión [...]. Lectores del mundo, lean este libro.» --Margarita García Robayo A sus sesenta y cuatro años, Emilia se enfrenta a la remodelación de su cocina. Su marido lo ha decidido por su cuenta y ella, que solo quiere estar tranquila con sus libros, se siente incapaz de oponer resistencia. Bonnett parte de este hecho cotidiano y aparentemente banal para construir una semblanza de la plácida y peligrosa insatisfacción, y de mujeres arrinconadas por muy distintos tipos de maltratos y silencios. El paso del tiempo, su acumulación y su peso, el aburguesamiento y la vejez (propia y ajena), y la imposibilidad de conocer realmente a quienes nos rodean empapan esta novela para obligarnos a mirar donde, a menudo, no queremos mirar: a lo que de verdad somos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A shocking portrayal, displayed with a fierce authenticity, about married life, old age, and family ties. "In Piedad Bonnett's writing I find all the virtues that I most admire in literature: depth and conciseness [...]. Readers of the world, you must read this book." 3/4Margarita Garcia Robayo At sixty-four years old, Emilia is facing the remodeling of her kitchen. Her husband has decided this on his own, and she, who just wants to be left alone with her books, feels unable to resist. Bonnett starts with this casual, mundane, and banal event to build a facade of docile and dangerous dissatisfaction, and of women cornered by different types of abuse and silence. The passage of time, the weight that it holds, gentrification, and old age (ours and others), and the inability of really knowing those around us, infuse this novel and forces us to look where we don't often want to look: to what we really are.

Amazing book, but unnecessary
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I would give this book 5 stars, but at the end of the day I don't think I can. I love flipping through it and looking at the color palettes and seeing the ways the artists communicated ideas through their limited palettes and spaces. There are also little 3D paper arts you can do of some of the sprites, like the fountain pictured above. It has helped me in my pixel art journey and it could 100% help you. The only reason I would say not to buy it is because all of the sprites are accessible online. If you want to understand the art on a deeper level and develop an appreciation for the passion that pixel art contains, buy it. If you want to look at them quickly as references and are an experienced pixel artist, it is not as useful, you could learn the rules just by looking at the sprites online, but you would miss the explanations and writings that help explain the art.

Great for my Quilting!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I bought this book at launch and it has pretty much become my “bible” for Final Fantasy pixel art. I sew and love making nerdy quilts so when I saw this, it was a total insta-buy. It showcases so much original art as well as newly designed sprites (for both older and newer games). I honestly didn’t know about the newer games being designed as sprites so when I saw this, I immediately got to creating.
Beyond this being a great pattern book for pixel quilting, I loved seeing a piece of FF history we don’t get to know about. Also loved the interview showcased.
A good book for any Final Fantasy lover collection!

A great book for a fan of the early final fantasy series.
Format: Hardcover
I love this book!
I grew up with the NES and this brought back a lot of memories of how as a kid I would get lost in the creativity of what developers of these games made with only some blocks.
I love pixel art and this book is great if you enjoy making your own and admiring the work of someone else's and seeing their imagination from some truly great games.
This book is small in size but is perfect size to show blown up images of final fantasy pixel characters and creatures, also of places from the games.
Also having final fantasy characters from beyond the Nintendo/SNES was a really cool surprise to see if they had been made in that era.
