The Cook of the Halcyon is the penultimate novel in the Inspector Montalbano mystery series from the master of Sicilian crime, Andrea Camilleri.Moments later the all-white schooner, which looked like a hospital ship, began to pass ever so slowly before him, as if wanting to show itself off in all its beauty.

With very few crewmen, no passengers, and a stern large enough to land a helicopter, it piques the Inspector’s interest straight away.In the midst of this, a rare trip to Genoa to visit Livia ends with the Vigàta police department in disarray, and Inspector Montalbano’s position as the head of the commissariat in jeopardy. It will be up to Montalbano to fix the damage done.

Atwood, Margaret

Offred is a Handmaid in The Republic of Gilead, a religious totalitarian state in what was formerly known as the United States. She is placed in the household of The Commander, Fred Waterford – her assigned name, Offred, means ‘of Fred’. She has only one function: to breed. If Offred refuses to enter into sexual servitude to repopulate a devastated world, she will be hanged. Yet even a repressive state cannot eradicate hope and desire. As she recalls her pre-revolution life in flashbacks, Offred must navigate through the terrifying landscape of torture and persecution in the present day, and between two men upon which her future hangs.Masterfully conceived and executed, this haunting vision of the future places Margaret Atwood at the forefront of dystopian fiction.

Lemaitre, Pierre

Ils ont miraculeusement survécu au carnage de la Grande Guerre, aux horreurs des tranchées. Albert, un employé modeste qui a tout perdu, et Edouard, un artiste flamboyant devenu une « gueule cassée », comprennent vite pourtant que leur pays ne veut plus d’eux. Désarmés, condamnés à l’exclusion, mais refusant de céder au découragement et à l’amertume, les deux hommes que le destin a réunis imaginent alors une escroquerie d’une audace inouïe… Fresque d'une rare cruauté, remarquable par son architecture et sa puissance d'évocation, Au revoir là-haut est le grand roman de l'après-guerre de 14, de l'illusion de l'armistice, de l'État qui glorifie ses disparus et se débarrasse de vivants trop encombrants. Dans l'atmosphère crépusculaire des lendemains qui déchantent, peuplée de misérables pantins et de lâches reçus en héros, Pierre Lemaitre compose avec talent la grande tragédie de cette génération perdue.

Si las mujeres que leen son peligrosas, &iquest,qu&eacute, decir de aquellas que se han impuesto como escritoras en un mundo lleno de prejuicios?La literatura ha sido tradicionalmente un terreno reservado a los hombres y, hasta bien entrado al siglo XX, las pocas mujeres que se atrev&iacute,an a tomar la pluma sol&iacute,an utilizar seud&oacute,nimos masculinos para ocultar semejante acto de rebeld&iacute,a. Sin embargo, ya en el siglo XIII algunas mujeres se atrev&iacute,an a escribir en un mundo en el que s&oacute,lo unas poqu&iacute,simas privilegiadas ten&iacute,an acceso siquiera a la lectura. Esta interesante y reveladora obra, llena de ilustraciones y fotograf&iacute,as, propone repasar la trayectoria de las escritoras m&aacute,s destacadas que ha dado la historia, como las hermanas Br&ouml,nte, Jane Austen, George Sand o Virginia Woolf.

Ciabatti, Teresa

Mi nombre es Teresa Ciabatti, tengo cuatro años y soy la hija, la alegría, el orgullo, el amor del Profesor &¬. El profesor es Lorenzo Ciabatti, médico jefe del hospital Orbetello. Pronto se convirtió en uno, después de una pasantía en Estados Unidos, porque es talentoso pero modesto, un benefactor, dicen algunos, un santo. Todos lo quieren, todos le temen, y Teresa es su amada hija: la única a la que el Profesor permite llevar el anillo de zafiros del que nunca se separa. El anillo de la Universidad Americana, dice. El anillo de poder, susurran algunos. Teresa se desliza hacia la adolescencia desde la infancia, y se da cuenta de que la benevolencia que el mundo le reserva es un efecto secundario del servilismo hacia su padre. ¿Quién es Lorenzo Ciabatti? ¿El médico benefactor que ama a los pobres o un hombre calculador y violento? ¿Un poderoso que quizás jugó un papel en algunos de los eventos más oscuros de la historia reciente? Ya adulta, Teresa decide averiguarlo y se encuentra inmersa en el dulce y venenoso líquido amniótico que fue su infancia: preguntas nunca hechas, respuestas evasivas. Todo, en las historias familiares, se readapta, se transforma... Teresa Ciabatti reconstruye la historia de una familia y, con ella, los acontecimientos de toda una época. Una autoficción sincera, feroz, siniestra, nacida del afán de reconciliarse con una infancia feliz que se interrumpió bruscamente.

«A arte de escribir consiste en dicir moito con poucas palabras», afirmaba Chéjov, o pai do conto moderno. Un reto para quen crea e unha aventura para quen le. Nestes vinte e dous relatos de «Compostela» achegámonos á cidade dende diversas voces e olladas, mais tamén fuximos dela a arrabaldes de grandes urbes, a vilas pequenas ou a barrios con encanto. Neste paseo literario gozamos de voces consagradas no xénero e doutras que se inician, xeracións diferentes que dialogan nunha mesma lingua na que constrúen historias enraizadas en nós. Cada conto é mostra do gran momento literario do país, estas páxinas son un remuíño de bolboretas mergulladas na mesma luz, a da literatura galega. (Malores Villanueva) A cousa é que a nave foi. E con esta xa van tres... E esta, como di un amigo meu que canta moito e moi ben, «Partiu!». (Pedro Feijoo)

Barça: The rise and fall of the club that built modern football
Avui -5% en Llibres

Kuper, Simon

WINNER OF THE FOOTBALL BOOK OF THE YEAR'This is a masterfully written history of the world's greatest football club. Més que un book!' - GARY LINEKERFrom the bestselling co-author of Soccernomics comes the story of how FC Barcelona became the most successful football club in the world - and how that envied position now hangs in the balance.Barça is not just the world's most popular sports club, it is simply one of the most influential organisations on the planet. With almost 250 million followers on social media and 4 million visitors to its Camp Nou stadium each year, there's little wonder its motto is 'More than a club'. But it was not always so. In the past three decades, Barcelona has transformed from regional team to global powerhouse, becoming a model of sporting excellence and a consistent winner of silverware.Simon Kuper unravels exactly how these transformations took place. He outlines the organisational structure behind the club's business decisions, and details the work of its coaches, medics, data analysts and nutritionists who have revolutionised the sporting world. And, of course, he studies the towering influence of the club's two greatest legends, Johan Cruyff and Lionel Messi.Like many leading global businesses, FC Barcelona closely guards its secrets, granting few outsiders a view behind the scenes. But, after decades of writing about the sport and the club, Kuper was given unprecedented access to the inner sanctum and to the people who strive daily to keep Barcelona at the top.Erudite, personal, and capturing all the latest successes and upheavals, his portrait of this incredible institution goes beyond football to understand Barça as a unique social, cultural, and political phenomenon.''I began my research thinking I was going to be explaining Barca's rise to greatness, and I have, but I've also ended up charting the decline and fall.''

Au début des années 90, la narratrice est embauchée par Yumimoto, une puissante firme japonaise. Elle va découvrir à ses dépens l'implacable rigueur de l'autorité d'entreprise, en même temps que les codes de conduite, incompréhensibles au profane, qui gouvernent la vie, sociale au pays du Soleil levant. D'erreurs en maladresses et en échecs, commence alors pour elle, comme dans un mauvais rêve, la descente inexorable dans les degrés de la hiérarchie, jusqu'au rang de surveillante des toilettes, celui de l'humiliation dernière. Une course absurde vers l'abîme - image de la vie -, où l'humour percutant d'Amélie Nothomb fait mouche à chaque ligne. Entre le rire et l'angoisse, cette satire des nouveaux despotismes aux échos kafkaïens a conquis un immense public et valu à l'auteur d'Hygiène de l'assassin le Grand Prix du roman de l'Académie française en 1999.

Quelques milliers de soldats anglais qui ne songent qu’à rentrer chez eux se retrouvent pris au piège par des Français en surnombre. Bottés, casqués, cuirassés, armés jusqu’aux dents, brandissant fièrement leurs étendards, tous les aristocrates de la cour de France se précipitent pour participer à la curée. Ils ont bien l’intention de se couvrir de gloire, dans la grande tradition de la chevalerie française. Aucun n’en reviendra vivant. Toutes les armées du monde ont, un jour ou l’autre, pris la pâtée, mais pour un désastre de cette ampleur, un seul mot s’impose : grandiose !Avec la verve qu’on lui connaît et son sens du détail qui tue, Jean Teulé nous raconte ces trois jours dantesques où, sous une pluie battante, des milliers d’hommes se sont massacrés dans un affrontement sanglant d’autant plus désastreux que cette bataille était parfaitement inutile.
