La Federación de Sociedades Gallegas, nacida en 1921, no es una institución más de la colectividad galaica afincada en la Argentina. Durante varias décadas fue el principal referente político no sólo para la comunidad emigrada -actuando como un ambito de definicion ideologica de cara a la patria de origen- sino tambien para la propia Galicia, ya que sus dirigentes influian con sus textos, sus ideas y su presencia en la evolucion de las corrientes nacionalistas y de izquierda en lucha contra las dictaduras y el atraso social y economico gallego. Pero no presentamos aqui una historia institucional, donde se glorifique un pasado inmaculado y se rinda homenaje a los dirigentes como heroes indiscutibles, sino que se toma la historia de la Federacion de Sociedades Gallegas como el ambito de confrontacion y de redefinicion de las identidades politicas e ideologicas de la colectividad. El objetivo de este trabajo es delimitar, en cada momento particular, la red especifica de opciones politicas que se ponen en juego y como cada una actua en funcion del mosaico particular de agentes al que se enfrenta. Por otro lado, se van desgranando tambien algunas de las formas especificas que fue adoptando la practica militante, las costumbres societarias, los habitos de los federados. Se evalua asi con que tipo de lideres conto la Federacion, como se desarrollaba la burocracia interna, el rol de la mujer, las practicas electorales internas, entre otros varios items. El conjunto intenta ser un punto de partida para la revalorizacion historiografica de la institucion politica mas influyente en el seno de la colectividad gallega de la Argentina.

FINALIST FOR THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR FICTION 2018Like Huckleberry Finn written by Cormac McCarthy. -- Sunday TimesHkan Soderstrom is a man who has become a legend. Giant in size, rumoured to be bloodthirsty and fearless, he is known simply as the Hawk.But behind this myth is a tale of loss and survival. As a young man Hkan is sent from Gothenburg with his brother Linus to seek their fortunes in New York. In the chaos of the port, he is separated from Linus and finds himself instead on a ship bound for California. He speaks no English and has no money but determined to find his brother, Hkan sets out on a journey east. As he travels on foot he moves against the tide of history, experiencing the Gold Rush and its effects, encountering capitalists and colonialists, explorers and early scientists, and witnessing the formation of America and the betrayal of its dream.In the Distance is a novel about radical foreignness about being lost in a country that does not yet exist. As Hkan confronts desert and mountains, he is thrown between the threat of violence and devastating loneliness, all the while keeping the image of his brother, and the hope of companionship, in the distance.Singular and deeply affecting In the Distance is a brutal, sad, tender coming-of-age story, set in a historical past that feels both familiar and at the same time like nothing weve ever encountered before. -- GuardianRichly drawn and something like Huckleberry Finn written by Cormac McCarthy: an adventure story as well as a meditation on the meaning of home.-- Sunday TimesAn extraordinary epic tale of a lone mans journey into the heart of the American frontier Ultimately it is not his quest to be reunited with his brother that impels the novel: it is a good old-fashioned yearning of the human spirit, and a beautifully commodious meditation on its absolute unknowability. -- Financial TimesExquisite: assured, moving and masterful, as profound and precise an evocation of loneliness as any book Ive ever read. -- Lauren Groff, author of Fates and Furies

The Pulitzer Prizewinning author of Trust turns to the future with a novel that examines the place of technology in the American imaginationCenturies from now, at the dawn of a historical epoch filled with both uncertainty and promise, an orphan is adrift in a city on the brink of a great transformation. The state has been dismantled, and humans are reinventing social bonds and learning new ways to coexist with nature. Following a childhood defined by loss, survival, and found family, the orphan grows up to become a pincher, someone who steals electricity from the grid to sell it on the black market. Its a high-risk life, one that brings her into a rich art and music scene where she powers underground concerts. It also leads her to a colossal scientific invention that could change the very fabric of reality.After rewriting Americas past with his two previous novels, Hernan Diaz defies expectations with his third and gives us a breathtaking glimpse into the future. A major achievement from a major contemporary writer, Ply questions the place of technology in the American experiment with a plot that grabs both heart and mind. It is a novel of ideas built from a story of people. Combining Dickensian odyssey, family drama, and scientific thriller, Ply poignantly charts the tenuous boundaries of selfhood and the distance that inevitably stands between us and those we love.

Centuries from now, an orphan adrift in an American city grows up to become a pincher.
