Lies and Sorcery


The first unabridged English translation of the electrifying novel of secrets and delusions, from one of the greatest Italian writers of the twentieth century. Elisa – orphaned as a child, raised by a ‘fallen woman’, fed by fairy tales – has lived in an outlandish imaginary world for years. When her guardian dies, she feels compelled to confront her family’s tortured and dramatic past, weaving the tale of her mother and grandmother through a history of intrigue, treachery, deception and desire. But as her saga of three generations of Sicilian women proceeds, it becomes something else entirely, taking in a whole legacy of oppression and injustice. By turns flamboyant and intense, raging and funny, Lies and Sorcery is a celebration of the female imagination, and the power of storytelling itself. First published in 1948, Elsa Morante’s debut novel won the Viareggio Prize and earned her the lasting admiration of generations of writers from Italo Calvino and Natalia Ginzburg to Elena Ferrante.

Archer's Voice


I wanted to lose myself in the small town of Pelion, Maine. To forget everything I had left behind. The sound of rain. The blood. The coldness of a gun against my skin. For six months, each breath has been a reminder that I survived-and my dad didn't. I'm almost safe again. But the moment I meet Archer Hale, my entire world tilts on its axis ... and never rights itself again. Until I trespass into his strange, silent, and isolated world, Archer communicates with no one. Yet in his whiskey-colored eyes, something intangible happens between us. There's so much more to him than just his beauty, his presence, or the ways his hands communicate with me. On me. But this town is mired in secrets and betrayals, and Archer is the explosive center of it all. So much passion. And so much hurt. But it's only in Archer's silence that we might just find what we need to heal ... and live. Includes an exclusive extended epilogue from Archer's POV!

Tieň nad lesom


Keď sa vo veľkom mravenisku nad obcou S. v oblasti Jämtland nájde mŕtve telo, kriminalistom v Strömsunde príde na pomoc s vyšetrovaním Olivia Rönningová. Nájdenému mŕtvemu telu chýba hlava. Odtlačky prstov obete sa nenachádzajú v žiadnom úradnom registri a v tejto oblasti už vyše dvadsať rokov nenahlásili zmiznutie osoby. Miesto hrozného nálezu sa nachádza neďaleko starého kultového miesta, kde forenzní technici objavia stopy krvi. Obcou S. sa šíri nepokoj. Nikto sa neopováži chodiť do lesa za bieleho dňa, nieto ešte po zotmení. Hoci v minulosti sa obec takmer vyľudnila, v priebehu posledných desaťročí sa opäť zaplnila novými obyvateľmi, ochrancami prírody, Štokholmčanmi aj Holanďanmi. Obyvatelia akceptovali cudzincov aj čudákov. A Bolundovci, rodina neonacistov, sa držali v úzadí. Dobré vzťahy, panujúce v obci, sú zrazu ohrozené. Miestni obyvatelia nespolupracujú a čoraz neochotnejšie odpovedajú na Oliviine otázky. Na vyriešenie záhady si napokon musí prizvať na pomoc Toma Stiltona a Mette Olsäterovú. Preklad zo švédskeho originálu Skugga över Slagtjärn (Norstedts, Stockholm, 2025) Mária Bratová.
