Nominada para el PEN / Jean Stein Award

De la pluma de la aclamada autora de Cantoras llega una novela incandescente --política, mística, actual y alentadora-- sobre el poder de la memoria y la búsqueda de la justicia.

En su casa modesta a las afueras de la ciudad, el expresidente de un país latinoamericano anónimo recibe a una periodista en su famoso jardín, para discutir su legado y las circunstancias funestas que amenazan a la democracia en todo el mundo. A él lo conocían como el Presidente Más Pobre del Mundo, y su reputación es mítica: fue guerrillero y lo encarcelaron por incitar a la revolución antes de convertirse en la imagen de la justicia, los derechos humanos y el altruismo para su país. Ahora, mientras habla con la periodista, se pregunta si debería revelarle el extraño secreto de su encarcelamiento: mientras lo tenían en un confinamiento solitario brutal, sobrevivió, en parte, discutiendo sobre la revolución, la búsqueda de la dignidad y qué significa amar a un país con la única criatura que le contestaba: una rana insolente.

Tan cautivadora como innovadora, vívida, conmovedora y llena de ingenio y humor, El presidente y la rana explora la resiliencia de la naturaleza humana y lo que es posible cuando el peligro se cierne sobre nosotros. Mientras nos transporta entre una lúgubre celda y el exuberante jardín del presidente, el relato atraviesa todas las fronteras y nos invita a pensar desde cero qué significa gobernar, atreverse a hacer las cosas y soñar.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

PEN/JEAN STEIN BOOK AWARD NOMINEE

An incandescent novel--political, mystical, timely, and heartening--about the power of memory, and the pursuit of justice, from the acclaimed author of Cantoras.

"A joy to read. Playful and profound, unearthly yet deeply rooted, this sublime and gripping novel is above all about hope: that within the world's messy pain there is still room for transformation and healing."--Madeline Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Circe

At his modest home on the edge of town, the former president of an unnamed Latin American country receives a journalist in his famed gardens to discuss his legacy and the dire circumstances that threaten democracy around the globe. Once known as the Poorest President in the World, his reputation is the stuff of myth: a former guerilla who was jailed for inciting revolution before becoming the face of justice, human rights, and selflessness for his nation. Now, as he talks to the journalist, he wonders if he should reveal the strange secret of his imprisonment: while held in brutal solitary confinement, he survived, in part, by discussing revolution, the quest for dignity, and what it means to love a country, with the only creature who ever spoke back--a loud-mouth frog.

As engrossing as it is innovative, vivid, moving, and full of wit and humor, The President and the Frog explores the resilience of the human spirit and what is possible when danger looms. Ferrying us between a grim jail cell and the president's lush gardens, the tale reaches beyond all borders and invites us to reimagine what it means to lead, to dare, and to dream.

Play fetch in the dark! My dog loves these balls!
Size: 2.5in Medium Treat
My dog loves these glow in the dark balls! The squeak is an added bonus! They get glowing very fast, in just seconds, and they bounce erratically making the dog go even more crazy chasing them! They are also indestructible. She is a strong chewer and none of these balls even has a scratch yet.

Fun Durable and My Dog Loves Them
Size: 3.5in Large
I bought these glow squeaky balls for my dog and they have been a huge hit. The size is perfect for medium to large dogs and the material feels sturdy enough to handle plenty of playtime. My dog usually destroys toys within a few days but these have held up really well and still squeak loudly which keeps him interested. The glow feature is surprisingly useful. We play fetch in the evenings and being able to spot the ball in the grass makes it so much easier. It also adds a fun element to nighttime play. The squeak is loud but not annoying and it really grabs my dog’s attention. Having four in a pack is a great value. I can keep one inside the house one outside and still have extras ready. The texture is also easy to clean which is important because they definitely get muddy after outdoor play. Pros: durable material fun squeak glows in the dark easy to clean and great value for the price. Cons: my dog loves them so much that he insists on carrying one everywhere. Overall this is an excellent set of dog toys. They are durable fun and practical. I would recommend them to anyone who has an active dog that loves to fetch and squeak.

Awesome but a tiny bit small
Size: 2.5in Medium
They’re a little smaller than my chuck it stick, but still works well. They hold a glow-charge well, my dog loves them and the squeaker

Little glow that does not last
Size: 2.5in Medium, Size: 2.5in Medium
Total waste of money. These sat all day in Texas sun then were under a 60 watt lamp until I took them outside at night. There was barely any glow to the balls and the littl glow they had didn't last 10 minutes. I thought they were same size as a chuck it ball but they are slightly smaller. The 3x5 card in photo should sit evenly on top of all 3 balls. It doesn't because these are smaller. I have a 70 pound Malinois and these were just too small for me to feel comfortable using as I had concerns of them going down his throat. If you are looking for a fun night time toy you need to look elsewhere. I'd give zero stars if I could.
