Larocca, Eric

An insidious darkness threatens to devastate a rural New England village when occult forces are conjured and when bigotry is left unrestrained. After a recent string of disappearances in a small Connecticut town, a grieving widower with a grim secret is drawn into a dangerous ritual of dark magic by a powerful and mysterious older gentleman named Heart Crowley. Meanwhile, a member of local law enforcement tasked with uncovering the culprit responsible for the bizarre disappearances soon begins to learn of a current of unbridled hatred simmering beneath the guise of the town's idyllic community - a hatred that will eventually burst and forever change the lives of those who once found peace in the quiet town of Henley's Edge. From the Bram Stoker Award (R)-nominated author of the viral sensation, Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke, Everything the Darkness Eats is a haunting supernatural thriller from a new and exciting voice in genre fiction.

Labari, Nuria

Los protagonistas de este libro sienten que han perdido la libertad para ordenar su propia historia dentro de otra historia que es mucho más grande que ellos mismos. La madre celosa del tiempo que su empleada de hogar pasa con sus hijos, el adolescente vigoréxico obsesionado con construir un cuerpo que lo convierta en mejor persona, el anciano judío homosexual que llora abrazado a los jerséis de su amante cuando se le rompe la lavadora... y la vida. Una colección de personajes que luchan por encajar en el relato de sus propias vidas, héroes y fracasados al mismo tiempo. Labari indaga en estos cuentos en el deseo, la diferencia de clase social o el racismo, y en las carencias de todo tipo que nos impiden descifrar nuestra identidad sin atender a dogmas o a recetas. Al contrario, enfrenta el peligroso deseo de reunir lo que es distinto a través del lenguaje y se lanza a escribir desde fronteras, palabras e idiomas nuevos.

But behind the holly and pine boughs, secrets are about to unravel, revealing this seemingly charming English village's grim history.Ashley Smith, an American art student in London for her junior year, was planning on spending Christmas alone, but a last-minute invitation from fellow student Emma Chapman brings her to Starvewood Hall, country residence of the Chapman family. The Cotswold manor house, festooned in pine boughs and crammed with guests for Christmas week, is a dream come true for Ashley. She is mesmerized by the cozy, firelit house, the large family, and the charming village of Clevemoor, but also by Adam Chapman, Emma's aloof and handsome brother.But Adam is being investigated by the local police over the recent brutal slaying of a girl from the village, and there is a mysterious stranger who haunts the woodland path between Starvewood Hall and the local pub. Ashley begins to wonder what kind of story she is actually inhabiting. Is she in a grand romance? A gothic tale? Or has she wandered into something far more sinister and terrifying than she'd ever imagined?Over thirty years later the events of that horrific week are revisited, along with a diary from that time. What began in a small English village in 1989 reaches its ghostly conclusion in modern-day New York, many Christmas seasons later.

Un pogrom en el siglo XXI

Jérémy, André

El sábado 7 de octubre de 2023 se produjo en el sur de Israel una de las masacres hacia los judíos más sangrientas y crueles desde 1945. Cientos de militantes de Hamás asesinaron cerca de 1200 personas y tomaron alrededor de 240 rehenes que fueron llevados a Gaza. Este es el relato hora por hora de un crimen pavoroso, que no debemos olvidar.Son las 6:30 a. m. y un estruendo de cohetes comienza a aturdir en el territorio israelí. Hay drones sobrevolando para neutralizar las cámaras y ametralladoras del muro de seguridad que separa la Franja de Gaza. Al mismo tiempo, miles de asesinos traspasan el muro por túneles, llegan en motos y a pie o aterrizan en parapentes, armados hasta los dientes, y atacan a los kibutz y a los asistentes del festival Supernova. El objetivo es asesinar la mayor cantidad de judíos y capturar rehenes.Un pogrom en el siglo XXI es el resultado de semanas de investigaciones de un equipo de corresponsales franceses que reconstruyeron en breves crónicas este raid enloquecido de sangre, balas y muerte. Basado en numerosos relatos de los sobrevivientes, los últimos mensajes rescatados de celulares de las víctimas enviados a sus seres queridos, las palabras de soldados veteranos y de expertos en catástrofes y los llamativos informes previos con los que contaban los servicios secretos israelíes sobre un inminente ataque programado metódicamente hace más de un año. Este libro no pretende ser un trabajo de historiadores, sino un documento riguroso y descarnado de lo inmediato, para que el horror y la deshumanización no sean naturalizados.Los asesinos llegaron de a cientos. Mataron y siguieron matando con balas o cuchillos, a familias, niños y ancianos, incluso a mujeres embarazadas. Violaron y mutilaron para humillar y aniquilar. Los asesinos reían, se filmaban, se mostraban orgullosos por los teléfonos.Del prólogo de Étienne GernelleEstos muertos nos interrogan y también nos condenan mientras que no nos ubiquemos del lado de lo sagrado de la vida. En Israel y en Palestina.Del epílogo de Kamel Daoud

Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing

Perry, Matthew

There's never been a more honest or raw memoir ... and it may just save lives' Daily Mail'Funny, fascinating, compelling ... also a wonderful read for fans of Friends' The TimesThe beloved star of Friends takes us behind the scenes of the hit sitcom and his struggles with addiction in this candid, funny, and revelatory memoir that delivers a powerful message of hope and persistence.This is the riveting story of acclaimed actor Matthew Perry, who takes us along on his journey from childhood ambition to fame to addiction and recovery in the aftermath of a life-threatening health scare. Before the frequent hospital visits and stints in rehab, there was five-year-old Matthew, who travelled from Montreal to Los Angeles, shuffling between his separated parents, fourteen-year-old Matthew, who was a nationally ranked tennis star in Canada, twenty-four-year-old Matthew, who nabbed a coveted role as a lead cast member on the talked-about pilot then called Friends Like Us. . . and so much more.In an extraordinary story that only he could tell - and in the heartfelt, hilarious, and warmly familiar way only he could tell it - Matthew Perry lays bare the fractured family that raised him (and also left him to his own devices), the desire for recognition that drove him to fame, and the void inside him that could not be filled even by his greatest dreams coming true. But he also details the peace he's found in sobriety and how he feels about the ubiquity of Friends, sharing stories about his castmates and other stars he met along the way. Frank, self-aware, and with his trademark humour, Perry vividly depicts his lifelong battle with addiction and what fuelled it despite seemingly having it all.Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing is an unforgettable memoir that is both intimate and eye-opening - as well as a hand extended to anyone struggling with sobriety. Unflinchingly honest, moving, and uproariously funny, this is the book fans have been waiting for.

Demon Copperhead

Kingsolver, Barbara

WINNER OF THE 2023 PULITZER PRIZE • WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION A New York Times ''Ten Best Books of 2022'' • An Oprah’s Book Club Selection • An Instant New York Times Bestseller • An Instant Wall Street Journal Bestseller • A #1 Washington Post Bestseller ''Demon is a voice for the ages—akin to Huck Finn or Holden Caulfield—only even more resilient.” — Beth Macy, author of Dopesick ''May be the best novel of 2022. . . . Equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking, this is the story of an irrepressible boy nobody wants, but readers will love.” (Ron Charles, Washington Post ) From the acclaimed author of The Poisonwood Bible and The Bean Trees, a brilliant novel that enthralls, compels, and captures the heart as it evokes a young hero’s unforgettable journey to maturity Set in the mountains of southern Appalachia, Demon Copperhead is the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer, with no assets beyond his dead father’s good looks and copper-colored hair, a caustic wit, and a fierce talent for survival. Relayed in his own unsparing voice, Demon braves the modern perils of foster care, child labor, derelict schools, athletic success, addiction, disastrous loves, and crushing losses. Through all of it, he reckons with his own invisibility in a popular culture where even the superheroes have abandoned rural people in favor of cities. Many generations ago, Charles Dickens wrote David Copperfield from his experience as a survivor of institutional poverty and its damages to children in his society. Those problems have yet to be solved in ours. Dickens is not a prerequisite for readers of this novel, but he provided its inspiration. In transposing a Victorian epic novel to the contemporary American South, Barbara Kingsolver enlists Dickens’ anger and compassion, and above all, his faith in the transformative powers of a good story. Demon Copperhead speaks for a new generation of lost boys, and all those born into beautiful, cursed places they can’t imagine leaving behind.

Smith, Adrian

Violaron a su Madre, Tierra, y la encadenaron con brujería. Pero no sabían el destino que se habían buscado. A medida que la podredumbre se apoderaba de Ella, sus hijos se desgarraban los unos a los otros, merodeaban por sus huecos putrefactos y engendraban abominaciones. Pasaron los siglos. Algunos linajes de hombres se volvieron monstruosos. Otros se debilitaron. La esclavitud y la desesperanza proliferaron. Los hombres más fuertes, directos descendientes de la Madre, crecieron en poder y tamaño. Era una época de dominación en la que reinaba la ley del más cruel. Finalmente, un hombre, casi un dios incluso entre estos titanes, aplastó a todos bajo su pie. Todos se arrodillaron ante este Tirano que gobernaría hasta que nada se moviera en las Llanuras Muertas, ni siquiera los propios dioses. Y, sin embargo, aún queda una esperanza para la Madre. Aún queda el ODIO.

Lepeltier, Pascaline

Does terroir really matter? What are the origins of wine and food pairings? Has professional wine tasting led to a uniformity of taste? Are we killing vines by the way we cultivate them? Is it paradoxical to talk about natural wines? How do economics influence wine styles?One Thousand Vines isn't an encyclopedia or atlas but it answers all the important questions about wine and offers the reader keys to understand the links between the bottle and the producers, terroirs and vineyards which give birth to it. With a refreshingly unique approach, star sommelier Pascaline Lepeltier offers those curious about wine not only the answers but also the tools to understand it by oneself.The book contains three parts - Reading the Vines, Reading the Landscapes and Reading the Wines - each broken down into chapters and shorter sub-chapters. The reader is invited to dive in as they by reading from start to finish, or by picking out topics of interest, creating their own paths, connecting dots and discovering new perspectives.In imparting the most up-to-date knowledge in the fields of botany, geography, history, sensory analysis, anthropology and gastronomy, One Thousand Vines challenges preconceived ideas about the vine and its wine. It explains where we are now, how we got here, and shows us a way forward - in how grapes will be grown, made into wine and sold and in how to taste and enjoy wine.

Burroughs, William S.

La «novela» es algo acabado, es decir, muerto. Estoy intentando, como Klee, crear algo que tenga vida propia, que me pueda poner verdaderamente en peligro, un peligro del que me hago cargo de forma voluntaria. Mis reflexiones se orientan al crimen, increíbles viajes de exploración, la expresión como un acto extremo, algún exceso de sentimiento o un comportamiento que hará añicos el patrón humano. […] Esta novela es el guion para acciones futuras en el mundo real. Yonqui, Queer, Ayahuasca, reconstruían mi pasado. La presente novela es una tentativa de crear mi futuro. En cierto sentido es una guía de viaje, un mapa.William S. BurroughsEste libro tiene el propósito de retratar la evolución de Burroughs hasta alcanzar su estilo maduro. Leyendo estos textos se pone de manifiesto la transformación completa del estilo directo de las dos primeras novelas en una regurgitación maniaca, surrealista, voluntariosamente repugnante y violentamente purgativa de imágenes en apariencia azarosas. En estos cuatro años cru­ciales, 1954-57, Burroughs se transformó en escritor internándose en territorio literario inexplorado. El tono deliberadamente excesivo sirve como exorcismo de cuatro décadas vividas en opresivo condicionamiento sexual y social y de su experiencia en primera persona de la inagotable fealdad e ignorancia de la humanidad. Sólo al prescindir de cualquier concepto de «mal gusto» o represión pudo liberar el instrumento de su escritura para explorar los paisajes de la Tierra y del Espacio en la obra que escribió lo largo de los siguientes treinta años. Leyendo Interzona presenciamos su comienzo.James Grauerholz
