Voices from Two Worlds: A Bilingual Journey Through History and Culture (English-Spanish Edition)
By Dr. Glenn P. Wood
Discover the past through the voices of the objects that lived it.
In Voices from Two Worlds, historian and storyteller Dr. Glenn P. Wood animates eight fascinating tales told by antiques from his own collection. Each artifact speaks across time-sharing memories of empires, faiths, and encounters that shaped Latin America, Spain, and beyond.
Presented in facing-page English and Latin American Spanish, this illustrated edition bridges language and culture. Written for CEFR B1-B2 / ACTFL Intermediate High-Advanced Low levels, it's ideal for:
English speakers exploring authentic Spanish,
Spanish speakers strengthening their English, and
Curious readers drawn to art, history, and human spirit.
Blending magical realism with Wood's unique animistic realism, these stories let art itself become the narrator. From colonial silver coins to a pre-Columbian chocolate bowl, each object reveals its craftsmanship-and the emotions carried through centuries.
With full-color photographs of every piece, Voices from Two Worlds is both a language-learning companion and a collector's treasure-a bridge between peoples, past and present.
Step into the conversation between artifacts and humanity-and hear what history has been waiting to tell you.
