Аннотация

Kelly Link's new collection of stories explores everything from the essence of ghosts to the nature of love. And hurricanes, astronauts, evil twins, bootleggers, Ouija boards, iguanas, The Wizard of Oz, superheroes, the pyramids. . .
The Summer People is a bite-sized sample of Link's incomparable writing, telling the story of Fran, her friend Ophelia, and their adventures at the house belonging to the mysterious and rarely glimpsed 'summer people'. As the tales Fran tells about the house and its inhabitants become ever stranger and more magical, it gets harder and harder to tell what is real and what exists only in her imagination, and the lines between truth and fantasy become deliciously blurred.

Аннотация

In California her name was Aden Grace Sawyer. In Pakistan she must choose a different name – Suleyman – and take on a new identity as a young man. She has travelled a long way to begin her new life, and she'll travel further to protect her secret.
But once she is on the ground, Aden finds herself in more danger than she could have dreamed. Faced with violence and loss, she must make intense and unimaginable choices that will test not only her faith, but her understanding of who she is.
Compelling, unnerving and timely, Godsend is a subtle masterpiece of empathy: a study of what it means for a person to give themselves to their faith, and how far they will go from home to find a place to belong.

«Женщина сильна своей слабостью» – так ли верно это? История Мадам Тильрьи совсем не про это. Эта хрупкая француженка почтительного возраста демонстрирует нам, как, преодолевая все невзгоды, предательство и общественное мнение, можно оставаться истинной женщиной. © Эльнара Декстер , 2020 © & ℗ ООО «Интеракт», 2020

Сколько испытаний и искушений уготовила судьба для выпускницы Нью-Йоркского факультета по связям с общественностью, для девочки словно бы «выросшей в шкафу» религиозной многодетной семьи. Стать личным пиар-менеджером звезды мировой величины было пределом ее мечтаний. Быть поверенным лицом человека, которого обожают миллионы, безусловно, очень лестно, однако, какую цену она готова за это заплатить? © Эльнара Декстер, 2020 © & ℗ ООО «Интеракт», 2020

Аннотация

Madame tells the story of a self-absorbed Polish teenager as he pursues intellectual maturity, and the woman of his dreams, his French teacher 'Madame', in the communist-dominated Warsaw of the early 1970s.
Libera paces his exuberant young hero's fulminations, fantasies and discoveries beautifully, building a remarkably subtle characterisation of a free mind in a repressive culture. This is one of those rare novels which reminds us why we love books. A consummate literary entertainment.
