Počas ceremónie skolabuje obľúbená filantropka Ludovica Cattaneová, a keď neskôr v nemocnici zomrie, všetci sú presvedčení, že dostala infarkt. Pitva však prinesie prekvapivý záver – Ludovicu niekto otrávil. Ako sa to mohlo stať, keď pri obrade pili všetci prítomní vrátane majstra z tej istej šálky? Do vyšetrovania záhadného prípadu sa zapojí aj Nora a spolu s nevľúdnym policajným komisárom Malacarnem sa pustí do odhaľovania tajomstiev milánskej smotánky.

Z talianskeho originálu Matcha al veleno (Sonzogno di Marsilio Editori in Venezia 2023) preložila Lenka Cinková.

Vidím, že vás láka tma


Andrij Oleksandrovyč Geister bol dobrovoľníkom v cudzineckej légii. Keď sa v roku 2014 vrátil na Ukrajinu, bolo všetko iné. Akákoľvek bežná situácia sa stala pre neho spúšťačom posttraumatickej stresovej poruchy (PTSD) a nebyť dobráckeho policajného vyšetrovateľa Valeru, ktorý mu ponúkol miesto konzultanta na kriminálnej polícii, ocitol by sa vo vážnych problémoch. Andrij vytváral v práci psychologické profily zločincov. Mal tesne po tridsiatke, no stále nevedel, čo vlastne chce, a život mu uštedroval jednu ranu za druhou. S milovanou ženou sa pohádal a vzápätí dostal správu o úmrtí matky. Kým cestoval na jej pohreb kamsi na juh krajiny, jeho žena v hlavnom meste spáchala samovraždu. Ukázalo sa, že čakala Andrijovo dieťa, ktorému teraz zostávajú mizivé šance na prežitie a lekári bojujú o jeho prežitie. Andrij by najradšej zostal v hlavnom mieste a nepovšimnuto by sa upil na smrť, vyšetrovateľ Valera ho však vyslal na služobnú cestu do zabudnutej dediny, kde má odhaliť sériu vrážd. Jedna po druhej tu mizli mladé ženy a neskôr sa nachádzali ich zohavené telá, posledná obeť však bola iná. Zmizlo šesťročné dievčatko s autizmom a sluchovou poruchou. Autor do formy mystického trileru vložil úvahy o vine, pokání a tabu. Ukazuje, že nie všetci, ktorí porušujú tabu, sú zločinci, a nie všetci, ktorí trestajú, stoja na strane spravodlivosti.

The Last Man and The Journal of Sorrow


''I will leave a monument of the existence of Verney, the Last Man.'' Mary Shelley began writing her ''Journal of Sorrow'' (c. 1822-26) three months after the devastating loss of her husband the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley to drowning. In the privacy of the diary''s pages, she grapples with her overwhelming grief over the tragic losses of her young husband, three of their children, and their friend the poet Lord Byron. Shelley ultimately resisted a suicidal depression by throwing herself into writing the allegorical plague novel and roman a clef, The Last Man (1826). Rooted in her own experiences of plagues both real and metaphorical, Shelley set The Last Man in the aftermath of a pestilential, centuries-long war between Greece and Turkey in the late twenty-first century. The novel is an existential and political thought experiment which provokes the mortal reader to contemplate the meaning of life and death in the face of the human-made disasters of war, epidemic, and species extinction. Through the ever-hopeful voice of the narrator Lionel Verney, the eponymous last man, Shelley leads readers to consider: what should be done after a massive global disaster? This edition presents these two masterpieces together, with a new editorial introduction and notes for both texts, giving readers profound insight into Mary Shelley''s enduring relevance for existential philosophy, life writing, post-apocalyptic literature, and political thought.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

The South


A radiant novel of the longing that blooms between two boys over the course of one summer – about family, desire, and what we inherit – from celebrated author Tash Aw. When his grandfather dies, a boy named Jay travels south with his family to the property he left them, a once flourishing farm that has fallen into disrepair. The trees are diseased, the fields parched from months of drought. Still, Jay’s father, Jack, sends him out to work the land, or whatever land is left. Over the course of these hot, dense days, Jay finds himself drawn to Chuan, the son of the farm’s manager, different from him in every way except for one. Out in the fields, and on the streets into town, the charge between the boys intensifies. Inside the house, the other family members confront their own regrets, and begin to drift apart. Like the land around them, they are powerless to resist the global forces that threaten to render their lives obsolete. At once sweeping and intimate, The South is a story of what happens when private and public lives collide. It is the first in a quartet of novels that form Tash Aw’s masterful portrait of a family navigating a period of great change – a reimagined epic for our times.
