Nine Perfect Strangers

Fiction & Literature

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, now a Hulu original series “If three characters were good in Big Little Lies, nine are even better in Nine Perfect Strangers.” —Lisa Scottoline, The New York Times Book ReviewFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Little LiesCould ten days at a health resort really change you forever? In Liane Moriarty’s latest page-turner, nine perfect strangers are about to find out...Nine people gather at a remote health resort. Some are here to lose weight, some are here to get a reboot on life, some are here for reasons they can’t even admit to themselves. Amidst all of the luxury and pampering, the mindfulness and meditation, they know these ten days might involve some real work. But none of them could imagine just how challenging the next ten days are going to be.Frances Welty, the formerly best-selling romantic novelist, arrives at Tranquillum House nursing a bad back, a broken heart, and an exquisitely painful paper cut. She’s immediately intrigued by her fellow guests. Most of them don’t look to be in need of a health resort at all. But the person that intrigues her most is the strange and charismatic owner/director of Tranquillum House. Could this person really have the answers Frances didn’t even know she was seeking? Should Frances put aside her doubts and immerse herself in everything Tranquillum House has to offer – or should she run while she still can?It’s not long before every guest at Tranquillum House is asking exactly the same question.Combining all of the hallmarks that have made her writing a go-to for anyone looking for wickedly smart, page-turning fiction that will make you laugh and gasp, Liane Moriarty’s Nine Perfect Strangers once again shows why she is a master of her craft.

The Robber Bride

Fiction & Literature

From the bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale and The Testaments—one of Margaret Atwood’s most unforgettable characters lurks at the center of this intricate novel like a spider in a web. The glamorous, irresistible, unscrupulous Zenia is nothing less than a fairy-tale villain in the memories of her former friends. Roz, Charis, and Tony—university classmates decades ago—were reunited at Zenia’s funeral and have met monthly for lunch ever since, obsessively retracing the destructive swath she once cut through their lives. A brilliantly inventive fabulist, Zenia had a talent for exploiting her friends’ weaknesses, wielding intimacy as a weapon and cheating them of money, time, sympathy, and men. But one day, five years after her funeral, they are shocked to catch sight of Zenia: even her death appears to have been yet another fiction. As the three women plot to confront their larger-than-life nemesis, Atwood proves herself a gleefully acute observer of the treacherous shoals of friendship, trust, desire, and power.

Sommerfrische

Fiction & Literature

Sommerfrische spiegelt die Bruchstücke des Lebenswerkes Hugo von Hofmannsthals in dessen verschwimmendem Ende einer unerfüllten Vollendung im Biotop der ersehnten Seelenlandschaft des Salzkammergutes. Er verliert sich in den Konstruktionsversuchen einer neuen Weltordnung als Entwurzelter zwischen der ehemaligen Hauptstadt des untergegangenen Habsburgerreiches Wien und seiner "Sommerfrische" Aussee, in die er alljährlich vom Frühling bis in den Winter hinein flieht, um dort die Quellen seiner Inspiration wiederzufinden.

I'm With the Bears

Fiction & Literature

A collection of 10 “striking” short stories on the dangers of climate change—featuring works by Margaret Atwood, David Mitchell, Kim Stanley Robinson, and an introduction by Bill McKibben (The Boston Globe). The size and severity of the global climate crisis is such that even the most committed environmentalists are liable to live in a state of denial. The award-winning writers collected here have made it their task to shake off this nagging disbelief, bringing the incomprehensible within our grasp and shaping an emotional response to the deterioration of our global habitat. From T. C. Boyle’s account of early eco-activists, to Nathaniel Rich’s vision of a near future where oil sells for $800 a barrel—these ten provocative, occasionally chilling, sometimes satirical stories bring a human reality to disasters of inhuman proportions. Royalties from I’m With the Bears will go to 350-dot-org, an international grassroots movement working to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Każde kolejne lato

Fiction & Literature

Sześć lat, aby się zakochać. Jedna chwila, aby wszystko legło w gruzach. Dwa dni, by to naprawić.Dla Persephone Fraser i Sama Florka przez sześć lat wakacje były takie same. Błogie dni nad jeziorem, praca w rodzinnej restauracji i czas z książkami. Tych dwoje każdego lata było nierozłącznych. Nikogo więc nie dziwiło, że ich przyjaźń przerodziła się w miłość – taką, która zdarza się tylko raz w życiu. I choć Percy nie wyobrażała sobie życia bez Sama, przewrotny los rozłączył ich na lata. Niespodziewana konieczność ponownego przyjazdu do Barry’s Bay oznacza spotkanie z Samem. Powrót nad jezioro, letnie słońce i obecność przyjaciela przywołują wspomnienia i sprawiają, że głęboko skrywane uczucia na nowo odżywają.Czy Percy i Sam będą w stanie stawić czoła decyzjom podjętym przed laty? Czy ich miłość jest dość silna, by przezwyciężyć błędy młodości? Wszystko wyjaśni się w jeden weekend nad jeziorem.„Każda książka, która zaczyna się od drinka i nowej fryzury na pocieszenie po rozstaniu, ma wszelkie zadatki na trafienie w mój gust, ale „Każde kolejne lato” przerosło moje najśmielsze oczekiwania. Dowcip Fortune jest ostry, jej pióro – lekkie, a jej bohaterowie mają w sobie tę wiarygodność i pełnokrwistość, których my, czytelnicy, nieustannie poszukujemy. To niesamowity debiut, który wywołuje ogromne emocje”. – Emily Henry„Magia i romantyzm letnich dni są tu wręcz namacalne”. – Popsugar „Debiutancka powieść Fortune jest przepełniona nostalgią i ciepłem. Historia Percy i Sama jest wciągająca i chwyta za serce, dzięki czemu czas spędzony na lekturze upływa równie szybko, co letnie dni, a postacie głównych bohaterów zapadają w pamięć na długo, tak samo jak miejsca, w których spędzamy wakacje, i ludzie, których podczas nich spotykamy”. – USA Today„Urzekająca opowieść o drugiej szansie i o tym, że przyszłość, jaką sobie wyobrażamy, rzadko okazuje się taka, jakiej się spodziewamy”. – Jodi Picoult
