World's Edge
James Sallis’ collection of five novellas. 'James Sallis is a superb writer ' - TimesJames Sallis’ World’s Edge presents five masterful novellas—Dayenu, Carriers, Settlers, Allotments, and Reconstruction—exploring fractured societies, human resilience, and the fragile intersections of morality and survival. Sallis’s prose, as sharp as it is evocative, captures the nuances of his dystopian and near-future settings, resonating with themes of dislocation and identity. Widely regarded as a pivotal voice in contemporary US fiction, Sallis’s work aligns with literary giants such as Cormac McCarthy and Denis Johnson, weaving the poetic bleakness of the former with the incisive character studies of the latter. These stories draw readers into a world both intimate and unyielding, where existential questions lurk beneath stark, elegant narratives.
Maybe Marilyn
What if, on the night of August 5, 1962, Marilyn Monroe didn’t die? What if she got away? Because all she ever dreamed of was to disappear and have a child. Marilyn Monroe would have turned 100 on June 1, 2026, and the world is preparing for a massive centennial celebration with official festivals and events focusing on her enduring impact on film, fashion, and culture. And then there’s Lois Cahall’s new novel...Maybe Marilyn... Marilyn Monroe’s housekeeper, Eunice Murray, and her psychiatrist, Dr. Ralph Greenson, were supposedly the only two people to ever see her dead. Five hours elapsed between the time they found Marilyn’s body and the authorities were contacted. These facts beg the question: Why was the house rearranged, phone records seized, and evidence destroyed? Was her suicide stage? et in 2019, this is a novel about Marilyn Monroe the survivor instead of Marilyn Monroe the victim. When two young reporters get the tip of a lifetime, they go on an elusive search to find her—and learn a thing or two about history in the process. Whether they find Marilyn or not remains to be seen, but what they do find is her granddaughter—alive and well—living up on Cape Cod. Biographers have long claimed that there is a world of devoted fans who hunger to bring their idol back to life. Their hunger has never waned. Nor have the flawed reports.… #MarilynLives
Zralá, co hodně žrala
Soubor fejetonů a reportáží ze života ženy, která už dávno pochopila, že existují dva druhy lidí: ti vymyšlení, kterým jde život podle plánu… a pak my ostatní. Autorka se s odzbrojující upřímností a sebeironií probíjí světem, kde se děti umějí proměnit v neslyšící, neviditelné i nezvěstné tvory, osud má smysl pro humor hraničící s šikanou, muži mohou žrát, a přitom zrát, a romantika končí ve chvíli, kdy zjistíte, že petlička je místo na ložnicových dveřích omylem namontovaná na dveřích pokoje vaší puberťačky. Tahle kniha je pro všechny, co by si občas dali mokrý hadr na zavařenou hlavu nebo jím někoho přetáhli, ale místo toho zvolí léčbu smíchem. Pro všechny, kdo vědí, že život není jednoduchý, ale když už se s námi pere, měli bychom z toho vyrazit aspoň dobrou historku.
