Tune In

By Jenny Acosta-Horta

At Your Leisure
Three great entertainment options for your spare time in May.

Claraboya
José Saramago
Sixty years after it was written, a novel by the Portuguese Nobel Laureate finally sees the light after it was rejected by a publisher in 1953. Saramago decided not to publish the book during his lifetime, although he left the decision on what to do with the novel after his death to his heirs. The book validates that the author we’ve come to know has always been the same: a genius.

The Adventures of Tintin
Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig
Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson team up as the formidable creative force that brings to life the famous character created by author Hergé. With its tremendous special effects and copious adventure sequences, it will delight the whole family.

Pecados y Milagros
Lila Downs
With songs inspired by traditional votive pictures of Mexico and her young son, Lila Downs, the singer of Mexican-American origins and universal talent, is back with her trademark spirit, sensibility and art.

Men of Action
These guys know how to play for their fans.

Rafa, mi historia
John Carlin, Rafael Nadal
Sports fans, and tennis fans in particular, will enjoy this book that documents how a champion is forged. It also reveals details of Rafael Nadal’s childhood, the importance and influence of his family, his evolution as a player and the triumphs and disappointments of his incredible career.

Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol
Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner
Unstoppable action, fascinating technological gadgetry and electrifying sequences (like the climb to the top of the tallest building in the world) guarantee 133 minutes of pure entertainment.

A solas con Chayanne
Chayanne
This CD/DVD combo is a gift from the singer to his fans, who will be able to relive the best moments of his tour, No hay imposibles (Nothing is impossible). Recorded in Mexico City, it includes hit songs like “Provócame,” “Me enamoré de ti” and “Torero.”
