Sicílske dedičstvo


Mladá Sicílčanka Serafina Forteová sa na začiatku dvadsiateho storočia nedobrovoľne stane manželkou a matkou, hoci vždy chcela od života viac. Postupne si vybuduje povesť liečiteľky, ibaže ospalá dedina na talianskom ostrove neprihliada na emancipovanú ženu vľúdne. O dve generácie neskôr Sare Marsalovej zlyhá manželstvo a začína o sebe vážne pochybovať. A aby toho nebolo málo, v rovnakom čase zomiera aj jej milovaná prateta Rosie. Tá jej zanechá letenku na Sicíliu, aby predala kus pôdy, ktorý patril ich rodine. Sara však ani netuší, že sa zamotá do spleti intríg, mafie a takmer sto rokov starej záhady okolo úmrtia svojej prastarej mamy Serafiny. Čím hlbšie Sara pátra, tým viac sa sama vystavuje nebezpečenstvu, až napokon hrozí, že skončí rovnako tragicky ako jej predkyňa. Spisovateľka a ocenená novinárka Jo Piazza berie čitateľov na „cestu do talianskej čižmy plnú zločinu, romantiky a ricotty“ za dedičstvom a rodinným tajomstvom, pre ochranu ktorého sú niektorí ochotní aj vraždiť... – The New York Times

Intermezzo


From the author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Normal People, an exquisitely moving story about grief, love and family. Aside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common. Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties - successful, competent and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father's death, he's medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women - his enduring first love Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke. Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined. For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude - a period of desire, despair and possibility - a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.

Ha itt lennél velem... - Ismert emberek ismeretlen történetei versekkel - Sorok között Lutter Imrével


Ha itt lennél velem, és fognád a két kezem - énekelhetjük Bódi László Cipő dalát. Vele indul és nagy formátumú, ismert emberek ismeretlen történeteivel folytatódik ez a verses interjúkötet, amely a Ha szeretsz... című népszerű könyv következő része. Minden egyes beszélgetés titkokat hordoz. Nemcsak azokat a történeteket, amelyeket a Sorok között Lutter Imrével című műsorból ismernek sokan, hanem az el nem hangzott, ám annál meghatározóbb gondolatokat is, amelyek megmutatják, miért fontos a család, a szerelem, az el nem árult barátság, a kötelék szüleink, nagyszüleink és gyermekeink között. Megmutatja, mennyivel erősebb az együtt-érzés, mint a bennünket gyakran elidegenítő hétköznapi gyötrődések.

The Crimson Crown


Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the most wicked of them all? Snow White's dark queen tells her side of the story in this queer, witchy reimagining of the classic fairy tale from the author of Malice. Legends tell of a witch who became a queen - the heartless villain in the story of Snow White. But now the wicked queen is stepping out of Snow White's shadow to become the heroine of her own legend. Her "once upon a time" began when she was just Ayleth, a young witch living in the forest with her coven, practicing their magic in secret and hiding from the White King's brutal war against witchcraft. Ayleth, however, faces a war of her own. Her magical gifts have yet to reveal themselves, and as the threat of the Royal Huntsmen intensifies, she fears she will never become the witch her coven needs. To prove herself, she sets out on a perilous quest that sends her to the White Palace, a decadent world of drama and deceit. There, she encounters an unlikely figure from her past, Jacquetta - the witch who once held Ayleth's heart - but then betrayed her. As events at the palace escalate, Ayleth finds herself caught in the web of the White King, whose dark charisma is as dangerous as the sinister force that seems to be haunting the palace. With the threat of discovery looming, Ayleth and Jacquetta must set aside the wounds of their past and work together to survive. But to do this, Ayleth must find the strength to transform into someone she never imagined she could be. A powerful witch, the very wickedest of them all.

A whimsical and healing novel about a trans man in New York who - almost 30, laid off, broke - moves back to his small Illinois hometown, walks into the bookstore he worked at in high school... and slips through time to come face to face with his pre-transition, teenage self. If you had one chance to talk to your younger self… would you? What would you say? When Darby left Oak Falls for university in New York City, all he wanted was to get as far away as possible, find a community where he could start afresh -- and finally forget about his childhood best friend Michael, and just how painfully their friendship ended. Now, about to turn 30, Darby suddenly finds himself unemployed. With no better alternative, and questioning where he really belongs, he moves back to his hometown. But the changes in Oak Falls make him feel off balance. And Michael's still there, their relationship still distant and strained. One thing is familiar: In Between Books, Darby's refuge growing up and high school job. When he walks inside, Darby feels an eerie sense of déjá vu - everything is exactly the same. Even the newspapers are dated 2009. And behind the till is a teen who looks a lot like Darby did at sixteen... a teen who just might give him the opportunity to change his own present for the better - if he can figure out how before his connection to the past vanishes forever.

Do Ask, Do Tell


What is a black cat lesbian? Is ‘aromantic’ a sexuality or a preference? How are bisexual and pansexual different? What’s it like to be queer and religious? Does Gen Z do darkrooms? How do you navigate life as a OAQ (Old Age Queer)? What does trans euphoria feel like? Why is nightlife so central to the community? What is camp today? As queer people themselves, authors Lotte Jeffs and Stu Oakley knew they didn’t have all the answers, because their individual experience represents a single pixel of the rainbow. Do Ask, Do Tell is an unapologetically curious journey through the dazzling spectrum of queer life that will give people – queer, straight, cis and everything in-between – the confidence to say 'I don’t know'. With humor, warmth, and radically open minds, Stu and Lotte tackle the questions you may have avoided asking for fear of getting it wrong. Covering everything from ageing to open relationships, darkrooms to Drag Kings, camp to carabinas, as well as the intricacies of gender and sexuality. This insightful and provocative exploration challenges assumptions, shatters taboos, and opens up the conversation. Whether you’re seeking clarity for your cis straight self or deeper insight as a member of the community, this book is your guide to better understanding and celebrating the richness of queer life.
