Drowning Souls – Whitestone Hospital


Minden, amit egész életemben felépítettem, az összes fal és bástya, a védőpajzsaim – minden a káosz áldozatává válik. Sierra Harris nagy erőfeszítések árán fejezte be orvosi tanulmányait. Most pedig, a Whitestone Hospital rezidens orvosaként, még inkább bizonyítani akarja, hogy többet tud annál, mint amit a vizsgaeredményei mutatnak. Teljesen a munkájára koncentrál, és nem enged meg magának semmilyen zavaró tényezőt. Igyekszik túllépni a bántalmazó anyjához fűződő fájdalmas kapcsolatán, és elkerülni önfejű és vonzó kollégáját, Mitch Riverát. Ám amikor a kórházban megrendítő baleset történik, a világ egy pillanatra megáll. Sierra az elsők közt érkezik a helyszínre, és a tény, hogy Mitch is a sérültek között van, azonnal kihúzza a talajt a lába alól. Sierra korábbi szándéka, hogy távol tartsa magától a férfit, és hogy érzelmeit eltemetve haladjon a céljai felé, meginog a traumatikus események sorozatában. Be kell látnia, hogy Mitch már réges-rég belopta magát a gondolataiba – és a szívébe... És bár a maga köré húzott falak megvédik, de a boldogságtól is megfosztják őt.

Event Horizon


Seventeen-year-old Milde is from the Outskirts, a place beyond the mountains where the dirt is corpse-rich, where mothers and daughters, banished from society, make their living – without rights, access to care or legal status. But Milde refuses to accept the order of things and, together with two friends, she revolts against the government’s injustice. Arrested, imprisoned and tortured, Milde is eventually presented with a stark choice: a public execution, or participation in an experimental mission that will send her into space, into a black hole known as the Mass. She chooses the Mass, opting to face its fathomless depth and loneliness rather than hurt the morale of her weary community back home. Collapsing and expanding myth and reality, Event Horizon is an exquisite existential novel, dark as deep space, and woven with reflections on oppression, solidarity, trauma and loss.

Zoli


‘A great book and a marvellously crafted story’ Roddy Doyle ____________________________________Zoli Novotna is a poet by accident as much as desire. As Fascism spreads over Czechoslovakia, she and her grandfather flee an unspeakable loss to join a clan of fellow Romani harpists. As Zoli shapes the ancient songs to her times, she finds her gift embraced – by her own people, and, for the first time, by the world outside their circle. But Zoli has become an instrument herself – wielded by the hands of the powerful. And her greatness in her art will see her severed and exiled from the people and tradition she loves, setting her on a path she must tread alone…‘A hymn to specificity, a clamour against homogenisation … With each voice McCann performs an astonishing feat’ Richard Eyre, Guardian ‘A writer of large and driving vision … Zoli contains passages of stunning lyricism and sharp ironic force’ New York Times ‘Poetic and beautifully observed’ Daily Telegraph
