Én, Mátyás király
Gáspár Ferenc legújabb könyvében különleges utazásra invitálja az olvasót: egyes szám első személyben beszélteti hősét, a mindmáig legnépszerűbb magyar uralkodót, Mátyás királyt, mégpedig úgy, hogy időnként magunk sem tudjuk Mátyás-e az, aki mesél nekünk, vagy Lebersit, a király udvari bolondja. Ők ketten ugyanis – akárcsak Arany János vígballadájában, a Pázmán lovagban –, gyakran kicserélik egymást ebben a bűnügyi regényre is hajazó műben.
A szerző megidézi a haldokló Mátyás lelkivilágát, ahogyan cselekedeteinek, döntéseinek mozgatórugóit felfedi, és amikből kiviláglik a nagy király stratégiája, életfilozófiája és életszeretete.
Mindezzel együtt egy izzig-vérig mai történetet olvashatunk, egy olyan regényt, melyben a főhős ugyanolyan magányos döntéseiben, akárcsak a ma embere.
Az Én, Mátyás király nem folytatása a korábbi műveknek – Janus, Galeotto –, ám azoknak a regényeknek a szereplői szintén feltűnnek a regényben.
S ha a Galeotto, Berka Attila, a könyv szerkesztője szerint a szerző lírai ars poeticája, akkor az Én, Mátyás király annál inkább az.

As one man’s mysterious dream moves towards its ultimately tragic conclusion, Midwesterner Nick Carraway is drawn into the dark world of Gatsby’s past and present – a world of hidden frustrations and superficial relationships which perfectly illustrates the “careless and confused” nature of America’s Jazz Age.

Petepite - Az apu én vagyok
A tizenegy és fél éves Pete Péter arra ébred, hogy alig fér el az ágyon. A takarója alól két szőrös láb kandikál ki, a keze óriási, a hangja mély és reszelős. Úgy tűnik, Pete Péter, azaz Pite egyetlen éjszaka alatt felnőtt, és pont olyan lett, mint az apja. Ráadásul apukája, dr. Pete Ádám is áváltozott, és a megszólalásig hasonlít a fiára. Sőt a megszólalás után is. Így aztán apa és fia egy cipőben járnak. Illetve egymás cipőjében. Pite suli helyett munkába indul. Ádámot pedig várja az iskolapad. De vajon helyet tud-e állni Pite egy komoly munkahelyen? És hogyan boldogul Ádám a gyerekekek között? Egyszer majd jót nevetnek ezen az egészen, ha már visszaváltoztak. De vajon visszaváltoznak-e valaha?
