Girl in a Box


In early twentieth century Japan, women have few rights. Yet one precocious poet—a brooding daughter, locked in her room at night by protective parents—runs away from home to live a life of her choosing. She falls in love with a fellow poet and follows him across Siberia to Paris, where they witness the last days of the Belle Epoque. She perseveres through poverty, back-to-back pregnancies, infidelity, earthquake and fire, to become a name every Japanese schoolchild knows today as a pioneering feminist poet and the first person to translate the classical Tale of Genji into modern Japanese. In her single-minded dedication to her art, she inflicts wounds on a daughter that echo from her own childhood. She sets out to make amends, knowing it may be too late. Based on the life of poet Yosano Akiko (1878-1942) and filled with original translations of her poetry, Girl in a Box will ignite the discussion about the female artist’s challenge to create while juggling family, career, and personal freedom. Historical fiction at its best.

A coach stops in the main square of Lizzanello, a tight-knit village where everyone knows each other.

Az áruló Boleyn


VIII. Henrik udvarában a király szeszélyének és a hatalmi játszmáknak kiszolgáltatott udvaroncok között a titkok a legértékesebb árucikkek. Minden döntés veszélyes lehet, és a leghalkabb suttogás is megpecsételheti a királynők sorsát. Jane Boleyn a Tudor-udvar egyik háttérembere, aki nagyon is jól eligazodik a politika labirintusában. Túlélésének záloga, hogy eljátssza a neki rendelt szerepeket: a kételyeit elrejtő feleséget, Boleyn Anna odaadó sógornőjét, a szavait okosan és óvatosan válogató kémet. Ám egy olyan udvarban, ahol a hatalom egy zsarnok király kardjának élén nyugszik, Jane csak a csavaros eszére és az ügyes manővereire támaszkodhat, mert tudja, hogy egyetlen rossz lépés, és összeomlik az egész élete. Philippa Gregory, a történelmi regények koronázatlan királynője ezúttal a Tudor-kor egyik kevésbé ismert szereplőjét, Jane Boleynt teszi meg a könyve főszereplőjének. Valóban áruló volt, vagy őrült, ahogy az utókor megbélyegezte őt? Vagy éppen egy hihetetlenül művelt és okos nő, aki semmilyen eszköztől nem riadt vissza a túlélése érdekében? Az áruló Boleyn izgalmas és fordulatos történelmi dráma, amely a 16. századi, intrikákkal átszőtt Angliába kalauzol bennünket, miközben kirajzolja egy rendkívüli nő lenyűgöző portréját.

Meghasadt félhold - Hunyadi János utolsó évei


Az Őfelsége lovagja című, Hunyadi Jánost gyermekkorától királyi lovaggá éréséig követő regény után a szerző most a nagy hadvezér életének utolsó nyolc esztendejét tárja az olvasók elé. Hunyadinak nem jut osztályrészül szinte egyetlen békés év sem. A jellemzően önös érdekek mentén mozgó korabeli politika rendre átnéz az országot fenyegető veszélyek felett, és nyomában eluralkodik a nemtörődömség. Az ország szekértáborokra szakad, az árkok betemetésére nem mutatkozik esély. A gyenge akaratú gyermek király, V. László képtelen függetleníteni magát nevelőjétől, aki kezdettől Hunyadi ádáz ellenfele. Délről az Oszmán Birodalom szorongatja a gyepűt, a Felvidéket Giskra János huszita zsoldosai sanyargatják. A szerb Brankovics György despotára - örökös hintapolitikája miatt - a szultán féken tartásában a Magyar Királyság nem számíthat. A német-római császár továbbra sem szolgáltatja vissza a magyar koronázási jelvényeket. Közben pedig az 1451-ben másodszor is trónra lépő II. Mehmed szultán elhatározza: előbb elfoglalja Nándorfehérvárt, aztán meg sem áll Budáig... A kötet történelmi hűséggel mutatja az 1448 és 1456 közötti esztendőket. Mehmed, Cillei Ulrik, Újlaki Miklós, Brankovics György, Kapisztránói János és a többi történelmi személy a maga valójában jelenik meg a regényben, amely emléket állít a magyarság egyik legnagyobb hősének, és azoknak, akik vele az emberpróbáló viszontagságok közepette sorsközösséget vállaltak.

Millenniumi napló


Az Ónody család legkisebb gyermeke, Blanka éppen a Millennium évében, 1896-ban végzi el a Felsőbb Lányiskolát, és lépi át a felnőttkor küszöbét. Ebben nagy segítségére van egy napló, amit a dédanyja, Zsini mama - aki nem más, mint a sorozatot elindító Cholera-napló Georginája - tanácsára kezd el írni. Az idős hölgy aztán maga is tollat ragad, és ketten egyidejűleg igyekeznek megörökíteni ennek a sok szempontból rendkívüli évnek a történéseit. A tavaszi és nyári hónapokban Zsini mama és Blanka egyaránt nagy lelkesedéssel vesznek részt az Ezredévi Kiállítás rendezvényein, és együtt látogatnak el a helyszínekre. A fiatal lány közben átéli az első szerelem minden fájdalmát és boldogságát, az idős asszony pedig derűs bölcsességgel szemléli a körülötte rohamosan változó világot. Vajon hogyan vélekednek ugyanazokról a dolgokról, és miben tudják egymást támogatni? Fábián Janka ezzel a kisregénnyel búcsúzik a "naplóktól", amelyekből egy 19. századi család nőtagjainak történelmi viharok közepette kibontakozó sorsát ismerhettük meg. Most a századvég pompázatos ünnepségsorozata, a Millennium díszletei között láthatjuk viszont őket, és egyben el is köszönhetünk tőlük.

Cromwell harminc ezüstje - (Különleges kiadás)


KÜLÖNLEGES, ÉLDEKORÁLT KIADÁS Előbb vagy utóbb minden rendes ember életében eljön az a pillanat, amikor leküzdhetetlen vágyat érez rá, hogy megölje Oliver Cromwellt. A 17. századi Anglia a feje tetejére állt. A király hadat üzent tulajdon országának, az egyszerű emberek az egyháznak, testvér a testvérnek. És ennek tetejébe még a karácsonyt is betiltották. Reginald, Gregory és Eustace eltérő társadalmi helyzetük ellenére ifjú koruk óta elválaszthatatlan barátok hírében állnak, ám a polgárháború kirobbanása, majd a rövid életű Angol Köztársaság első emberének, Oliver Cromwellnek zsarnoki törekvései mégis szembe fordítják őket egymással. Persze az összeesküvések és lőporos merényletek idején, amikor kémek settenkednek minden sarkon, nők férfi gúnyába bújnak, és királyok vonulnak a vesztőhelyre, kínosan nehéz megállapítani, ki a barát, és ki az ellenség. Aki pedig nem vigyáz magára eléggé, annak a feje igen jó eséllyel karón végzi. A kérdés egyszerű: mennyit bír el egy barátság? És főleg mennyit ér... CSERHÁTI LENKE, a LIBRI TALENT írói ösztöndíjprogram nyertese bemutatkozó regényében az újkori Anglia turbulens, politikai cselszövésekkel és leszámolásokkal terhes korszakába vezeti be az olvasót.
