Zločin počas čajového obradu Kto mal motív zavraždiť bohatú filantropku? Prvý prípad novinárky Nory Valliovej Novinárka Nora Valliová sa po niekoľkých rokoch života v Japonsku rozviedla a vrátila do Talianska. Žije v Miláne a pracuje pre časopis Dnešná žena. Keď dostane za úlohu napísať článok o novom sídle čajovej školy známeho japonského majstra, ktorú navštevujú najmä bohaté Milánčanky, zúčastní sa spolu s nimi na inauguračnom čajovom obrade. 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. Postupne vyjde najavo, že Ludovica nebola taká dobrosrdečná, ako sa zdalo, a že nejedna jej priateľka mala na ňu ťažké srdce. Kto ju však nenávidel až tak veľmi, že ju chcel zniesť zo sveta? 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 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.

Keshed


In the derelict shell of what was once his family home, a dying man surveys the wreckage of his former life and drinks himself senseless, haunted by the chain of events that led him there. Dark, complex, and visceral, Keshed is an unflinching character study exploring class, belonging, fatherhood, and conflicting ideals of modern masculinity. At heart, it's the story of a relationship struggling to cope with the impossible pressures of raising a child under late-stage capitalism; but it's also a love letter to the working-class North, from the grinding poverty of Thatcher's '80s to the present day.
