Although largely unknown in the West, the 73 stories in this volume are just as beguiling as the more familiar Grimms’ Fairy Tales or Arabian Nights. They were collected in the early 20th century by Richard Wilhelm and first translated into English by Frederick H Martens.

The Snakehead is a panoramic tale of international intrigue and a dramatic portrait of the underground economy in which America's 12 million illegal immigrants live. Based on hundreds of interviews, Patrick Radden Keefe's sweeping narrative tells the story not only of Sister Ping, but of the gangland gunslingers who worked for her, the immigration and law enforcement officials who pursued her, and the generation of penniless immigrants who risked death and braved a 17,000 mile odyssey so that they could realize their own version of the American dream.

At first, Victor is scared not only of the disease, but of the confinement, and wants nothing more than to flee.

No cabe duda de que la sociedad se rige por normas con frecuencia caprichosas que poco tienen que ver con las leyes naturales. Sólo así se explicaba el matemático David Hilbert la condescendencia con la que sus compañeros de la prestigiosa Universidad de Gotinga trataban a la brillante Emmy Noether, madre del álgebra abstracta, por el hecho de ser mujer.

TEN WORDS HAD SEALED MY FATE. It wasn’t until the waves had begun crashing into the stern of the ship, not until the salt spray was covering the decks and the hull was grinding and tearing itself upon the coral reef, not until the killing had started and terror had taken hold that I heard those ten words once more, flung at me by the wind. I cursed George for uttering them, and cursed Cheh Wah Tek for agreeing with him, and cursed myself for believing that smuggling fifty tonnes of marijuana from Australia to Singapore could be done so easily.
