Little, Brown Book Group The Bad Beekeepers Club: How I stumbled into the Curious World of Bees - and became (perhaps) a Better Person
'A must-read' Daily Mail "'Hello. My name is Bill and I'm a bad beekeeper. A really bad beekeeper." So begins the charming and often hilarious account of how Bill Turnbull - the much-loved and much-missed TV presenter - stumbled into the world of beekeeping (sometimes literally). Despite many setbacks - including being stung (twice) on his first day of training - beekeeping somehow taught Bill a great deal about himself, and the world around him. The Bad Beekeeper's Club also highlights the very real threats to Britain's bee population. One in every three tablespoons of food derives directly from the pollinating process of the humble bumble bee. But hives are collapsing at an accelerating rate with significant environmental consequences. Fascinating and extremely funny, The Bad Beekeeper's Club is a universally appealing story about a very singular passion.

Inspirada en las cosmologías del mundo andino y sus violencias profundas, Moscoso hace magia con las palabras, inventa ritmos y trae referencias de la cultura popular junto a otra cultura pop ancestral. Rompecabezas de referencias tan reconocible en el imaginario de Moscoso y en tantísimos puntos de América. Pósters de Chayanne y Hello Kitty entre viviendas precarias, vegetación random, terrenos vacíos, casas hechas con ladrillos sin pintar ni revocar, ciuda
