Álomhotel


Egy nő küzdelme a szabadságért – egy közeljövőben játszódó rémálomban Mi történik, ha már az álmainkat is megfigyelik? És ebből egy algoritmus képes előre jelezni, milyen bűncselekményt követünk majd el a jövőben. Amiért már most börtönbe zárnak… Sara Husseint egy külföldi konferenciáról hazatérve a Los Angeles-i repülőtéren letartóztatják, mivel az álmaiból nyert adatok alapján közvetlen fenyegetést jelent arra, akit a világon a legjobban szeret: a férjére. Sara hirtelen egy börtönben találja magát, ahol minden mozdulatát és gondolatát megfigyelik, kiértékelik, és ezek alapján döntenek arról, mikor szabadulhat. Már ha szabadulhat egyáltalán. Ám egyszer csak olyasmi történik az intézményben, aminek a hatására Sara válaszút elé kerül: továbbra is tartsa be a szabályokat, vagy lázadjon fel a rendszer ellen, amely megfosztotta a szabadságától és az álmaitól. Az Álomhotel egyszerre feszültséggel teli disztópia és mélyen emberi történet arról, kik vagyunk, és mit jelent valóban szabadnak lenni. Kísérteties vízió az emberi méltóságról egy olyan társadalomban, ahol a hatalom korlátozás nélkül használhatja fel a saját céljaira a technológiát. Margaret Atwood, George Orwell, Kazuo Ishiguro rajongóinak kötelező olvasmány.

George Falls Through Time


GEORGE FALLS THROUGH TIME IS. . . "Incredibly entertaining and intelligent." —GARRARD CONLEY"Big-hearted and inspired." —STEVEN ROWLEY"Funny, surprising, profound." —GRANT GINDER"Unputdownable." —LUNA MCNAMARALess meets the year 1300 in this exhilarating and thoughtfully genre-defying literary novel about a man transported through time in a moment of extreme stress, whose modern anxieties are replaced by medieval brutalitiesNewly laid off George’s internet bill is in his ex-boyfriend’s name. He’s got a spider-infested apartment, and two of the six dogs he’s walking in London have just escaped. It’s pure undiluted stress that sends him into a spiral, all the way to the year 1300. When he comes to, George recognizes the same rolling hills of Greenwich Park. But the luxuries and phone service of modernity are nowhere. In their place are locals with a bizarre, slanted speech in awe of his foreign clothes, who swiftly toss him in a dungeon. Despite the barbarity of a medieval world, a servant named Simon helps George acclimate to a simpler, easier existence—until a summons from the King threatens to send his life up in flames. George Falls Through Time is as much an inward journey as an outward one: an immersive exploration of identity and dislocation that pits present-day sensibilities against a raw and alien backdrop, a strangely perfect canvas for the absurd anxieties of our modern lives. It's a profound meditation on the nature of desire perfect for fans of Madeline Miller and The Ministry of Time.

Now Opiskin plans to marry off his host to a wealthy widow. Will the Colonel give way to Opiskin's bullying and sacrifice the love of his life, Nastasya? Or will he finally resist the petty tyrant's demands?Farcical and effervescent with absurdity, this short novel is a sparkling example of Dostoyevsky's comic side - and a microcosmic portrait of Russia on the verge of upheaval and transformation.Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: timeless storytelling by icons of literature, hand-picked from around the globe.Translated by Ignat Avsey.Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881) trained as an engineer and began his literary career with translations. As punishment for engaging in pro­gressive political discussion, he was subjected to a mock execution and sent into exile in Siberia in his twenties. Subsequently he worked exclu­sively as a writer, touring Europe and publishing novels and journalism. Addicted to gambling, he was often near starvation. His second, very happy marriage to typist Anna Snitkina helped to stabilize his manner of living, and with her practical assistance he went on to write several masterpieces of psychological and existential fiction. Novels such as Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, The Brothers Karamazov and Notes from Underground have earned him a lasting reputation as one of the dominant figures of world literature.Ignat Avsey (1938-2013) was born in Latvia to Russian parents, who relocated the family to Britain after the Second World War. He taught Russian language and literature at the University of Westminster. He translated several other works by Dostoyevsky, including The Karamazov Brothers and The Idiot, as well as Alexander Lernet-Holenia's novel I Was Jack Mortimer, also published by Pushkin Press.
