New York: Bantam Books, 1984-11-01. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. light edge wear to boards and jacket; He's an American legend, a straight-shooting businessman who brought Chrysler back from the brink and in the process became a media celebrity, newsmaker, and a man many had urged to run for president. The son of Italian immigrants, Lee Iacocca rose spectacularly through the ranks of Ford Motor Company to become its president, only to be toppled eight years later in a power play that should have shattered him. But Lee Iacocca didn't get mad, he got even. He led a battle for Chrysler's survival that made his name a symbol of integrity, know-how, and guts for millions of Americans. In his classic hard-hitting style, he tells us how he changed the automobile industry in the 1960s by creating the phenomenal Mustang. He goes behind the scenes for a look at Henry Ford's reign of intimidation and manipulation. He recounts the miraculous rebirth of Chrysler from near bankruptcy to repayment of its $1.2 billion government loan so early that Washington didn't know how to cash the check., Bantam Books, 1984-11-01, 3, Random House Audio, 1985-09-01.

A Biography by David Abodaher. ''...Here is the inspiring true story of how the son of humble Italian immigrants rose to become one of the most powerful men in the country. As president of Ford and father of the Mustang, Iacocca stood the automobile industry on its ear for two decades. Yet it was after his world-rocking fall from grace with Henry Ford that Iacocca took on the greatest challenge of all: reviving the dying Chrysler beast and pulling in the biggest profits in the company's history..., Random House Audio, 1985-09-01, 6, Warner Home Video, 1998-09-14.

After displaying his easygoing charm in a number of television appearances and a showy supporting role in The Electric Horseman, Willie Nelson scored his first leading role in this romantic comedy-drama in which he (appropriately enough) plays a musician. Buck Bonham (Nelson) is a country singer/songwriter with a loyal following in his native Texas and the neighboring Western states. However, Buck hasn't yet had the hit record that would make him a star nationwide; in the meantime, Buck and his band keep up a busy tour schedule, much to the annoyance of his wife, Viv (Dyan Cannon), and son, Jamie (Joey Floyd), who would like to see Buck at home every once in a while. As Buck wonders if he should press on with his musical career or call it quits, his close friend and longtime guitarist Garland Ramsey (Slim Pickens) announces he's retiring, and suggests a good replacement -- his daughter, Lily (Amy Irving). Lily had a crush on Buck as a child, and now as a full-grown and very beautiful woman, her infatuation has only increased with time. Consequently, Buck must choose between Viv and Lily as well as his home and his career. Honeysuckle Rose was written specifically for Nelson, and his character bears more than a passing similarity to Willie and his life before the album Red Headed Stranger made him a star; the film also earned Nelson an Academy Award nomination for the film's theme song, "On the Road Again."

El Colegio de México, 1998. Soft Cover. New. El presente libro se originó de unas mesas redondas sobre la escritora y filósofa española que se llevaron a cabo en la Capilla Alfonsina en 1994. El volumen se divide en tres secciones: la primera está conformada por un ensayo de María Zambrano sobre El laberinto de la soledad, y un texto que Octavio Paz escribió con motivo de la muerte de la filósofa. La segunda sección presenta cinco de las ocho ponencias presentadas en las mesas redondas, cuyos autores son: Adolfo Castañón, Rose Corral, Angelina Muñiz-Huberman, Anthony Stanton y Ramón Xirau. En la tercera sección se recoge la correspondencia de María Zambrano durante los primeros veinticinco años de exilio. Entre sus corresponsales destaca Alfonso Reyes., El Colegio de México, 1998, 6, El Colegio de México, 2012. Soft Cover. New. Este libro se organiza en tres apartados -"Visiones de conjunto: los territorios onettianos revisitados", "Los primeros textos: de Tiempo de abrazar a Tierra de nadie" y "Sobre novelas y nouvelles posteriores a La vida breve"- que se detienen en distintos momentos de la trayectoria literaria de Onetti, desde sus inicios en los años treinta en Buenos Aires y en Montevideo hasta las novelas y novelas cortas de madurez que escribe a partir de los cincuenta. Con enfoques y herramientas críticas plurales, los autores de este volumen ensayan nuevas miradas sobre el mundo complejo, denso, de Onetti: miradas abarcadoras que exploran procedimientos, temas y "obsesiones" onettianas a lo largo del tiempo alternan con calas que ahondan en un solo texto, sin que se pierda por ello de vista el contexto mayor de su obra. Las lecturas de Onetti que se ofrecen en este volumen, ejercicios renovados de comprensión, son también un homenaje al escritor que supo ser fiel a ese "creador de verdad" del que habla el joven Onetti en las crónicas publicadas en Marcha en 1939, el que avanza, "entre nieblas y actos desnudos", en el terreno "claro y misterioso donde tiene lugar la aventura humana y su absurdo"., El Colegio de México, 2012, 6, London, East Sussex, United Kingdom: Harvill Press, 2000.
