The Custom of the Country

First published in 1913, this is the story of Undine Spragg. Undine's social and monetary aspirations show themselves early in her life, as she convinces her parents to move from their comfortable existence in the Midwest to New York City. There she throws herself into high society and finds her ambition and greed grow as she climbs the social ladder, all the while hoping to keep her checkered past hidden from view.

Americanah

Una original historia sobre la inmigración en Estados Unidos desde el punto de vista de una estudiante de literatura nigeriana. Americanah ha sido galardonada con el National Book Critics Circle Award 2014 y seleccionada por los ciudadanos de Nueva York como el libro ganador de la campaña «One Book, One New York» 2017. Lagos, mediados de los noventa. En el marco de una dictadura militar y en una Nigeria que ofrece poco o ningún futuro, Ifemelu y Obinze, dos adolescentes atípicos, se enamoran apasionadamente. Como gran parte de su generación, saben que antes o después tendrán que dejar el país. Obinze siempre ha soñado con vivir en Estados Unidos, pero es Ifemelu quien consigue el visado para vivir con su tía en Brooklyn y estudiar en la universidad. Mientras Obinze lucha contra la burocracia para reunirse con Ifemelu, ella se encuentra en una América donde nada es como se imaginaba, comenzando por la importancia del color de su piel. Todas sus experiencias, desgracias y aventuras conducen a una única pregunta: ¿acabará convirtiéndose en una «americanah»? Americanah, que recoge el término burlón con que los nigerianos se refieren a los que vuelven de Estados Unidos dándose aires, es una historia de amor a lo largo de tres décadas y tres continentes, la historia de cómo se crea una identidad al margen de los dictados de la sociedad y sus prejuicios. Reseñas: «Confirma el virtuosismo, la empatía sin límites y la punzante agudeza social de Adichie». Dave Eggers «Con un gran sentido del humor, la novela disecciona y desmonta tópicos y prejuicios, señala la condescendencia. No deja de lado la actualidad e identifica con inteligencia e ironía algunos de los problemas del mundo en que vivimos que la vida cotidiana oculta. Americanah es una novela que pretende abarcar muchas cosas y, contrariamente a lo que dice el refrán, aprieta mucho». Aloma Rodríguez, Letras Libres «Hay algunas novelas que cuentan una gran historia y otras que consiguen que cambies la manera que tienes de ver el mundo. Americanah, de Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, consigue las dos cosas». Elisabeth Day, The Guardian « Americanah es esa cosa rara en la ficción literaria contemporánea: una exuberante historia de amor que también es una crítica social penetrante y divertida [...] Adichie escribe con perspicacia». Vogue

The Notebook

Celebrating 25 years of The Notebook - the classic novel which became the heart-wrenching film. * Once again, just as I do every day, I begin to read the notebook aloud... Noah Calhoun has returned from war and, in an attempt to escape the ghosts of battle, he sets his mind and his body to restoring an old plantation home to its former beauty. But he is haunted by memories of the beautiful girl he met there years before. A girl who stole his heart at the funfair, whose parents didn't approve, a girl he wrote to every day for a year. When Allie Hamilton shows up on his doorstep, exactly as he has held her in his memory for all these years, Noah has one last chance to win her back. Only this time, it's not just her parents in the way - Allie is engaged and she's not a woman to go back on her promises. The Notebook is the love story to end all love stories - it will break your heart, heal it back up and break it all over again. Praise for Nicholas Sparks: 'A fiercely romantic and touching tale' Heat 'An A-grade romantic read' OK! 'Pulls at the heartstrings' Sunday Times 'An absorbing page-turner' Daily Mail 'This one won't leave a dry eye' Daily Mirror

Riders of the Purple Sage

Riders of the Purple Sage Zane Grey - Riders of the Purple Sage" is Zane Grey's best-known novel. Originally published in 1912, it was one of the earliest works of Western fiction and played a significant role in popularizing that genre. The story uses a third person narrator to tell the story from the point of view of two main characters Bern Venter and Jane Withersteen and a few minor characters. Jane Withersteen, Mormon-born Utah native, goes against her church when she befriends a young Gentile rider, Venters. He is trailing the mysterious Masked Rider through the Old West. Both Venters and a notorious gunman named Lassiter bring adventure, intrigue, and romance to the Withersteen ranch. The story is also somewhat complex, with several plots unfolding that eventually come together at the end of the story, and conveniently leave open the certainty of a sequel.

Landfall, a channel story

Landfall is set during World War II and follows the story of a young naval officer named John Franklin, who is given the task of escorting a group of civilian refugees across the English Channel to safety in Scotland. The journey is perilous and Franklin must navigate treacherous waters and avoid German submarines while dealing with the challenges of leading a group of disparate people from different backgrounds and with different needs. Along the way, Franklin falls in love with a young woman named Valerie Russell, who is also one of the refugees.

The Kitchen God's Wife

"Remarkable...mesmerizing...compelling.... An entire world unfolds in Tolstoyan tide of event and detail....Give yourself over to the world Ms. Tan creates for you." —The New York Times Book Review Winnie and Helen have kept each other's worst secrets for more than fifty years. Now, because she believes she is dying, Helen wants to expose everything. And Winnie angrily determines that she must be the one to tell her daughter, Pearl, about the past—including the terrible truth even Helen does not know. And so begins Winnie's story of her life on a small island outside Shanghai in the 1920s, and other places in China during World War II, and traces the happy and desperate events that led to Winnie's coming to America in 1949. The Kitchen God's Wife is "a beautiful book" (Los Angeles Times) from the bestselling author of novels like The Joy Luck Club and The Backyard Bird Chronicles, and the memoir, Where the Past Begins.

The Glimpses of the Moon

Nick Lansing and Susy Branch are two young and attractive, but penniless New Yorkers. They decide to marry, but realize their chances of happiness are slim without the wealth, taken for granted by their more privileged friends. Nick and Susy agree to separate if either of them encounters a more eligible proposition and set out on a lavish honeymoon in Europe, funded by their wealthier friends. Unexpected feelings and jealous passions ensue, set against a backdrop of exquisite villas, palazzos and chateaus in Europe’s glittering 1920s. A highly enjoyable page-turner, "The Glimpses of the Moon" was Edith Wharton’s last completed novel. Edith Wharton (1862-1937) was an American author, best known for her sharp stories about the upper-class society into which she was born. Her major works include "The Age of Innocence" (1920), "Ethan Frome" (1911), and "The House of Mirth" (1905). She wrote over 40 books, which beyond novels included authoritative works on architecture, gardens, interior design, and travel. She was the first woman awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature for "The Age of Innocence" in 1921.

Mistress of Mellyn

Mount Mellyn stood as proud and magnificent as she had envisioned...But what bout its master--Connan TreMellyn? Was Martha Leigh's new employer as romantic as his name sounded? As she approached the sprawling mansion towering above the cliffs of Cornwall, an odd chill of apprehension overcame her. TreMellyn's young daugher, Alvean, proved as spoiled and difficult as the three governesses before Martha had discovered. But it was the girl's father whose cool, arrogant demeanor unleashed unfimiliar sensations and turmoil--even as whispers of past tragedy and present danger begin to insinuate themselves into Martha's life. Powerless against her growing desire for the enigmatic Connan, she is drawn deeper into family secrets--as passion overpowers reason, sending her head and heart spinning. But though evil lurks in the shadows, so does love--and the freedom to find a golden promise forever...

Lie Down With Lions

Ken Follett, con su habitual maestría narrativa, ha conseguido una de sus novelas más impactantes. Rodeado de montañas salvajes, el Valle de los Leones es un lugar legendario de Afganistán donde las costumbres y las personas apenas han cambiado con el paso de los siglos. Jane marchó allí con el médico francés Jean-Pierre cuando descubrió que su pareja, Ellis, trabajaba para el servicio de espionaje estadounidense. El pequeño pueblo de Banda, aislado en esta tierra perdida y árida, se convertirá en el escenario de un relato de espionaje e intriga en el que nada ni nadie está libre de sospecha. La etapa más terrible de la guerra contra los invasores soviéticos ha dado comienzo, y el enfrentamiento entre rusos y estadounidenses se encuentra en su momento más intenso y delicado. Cualquier paso en falso podría ser el último. Reseñas: «Su novela más ambiciosa. Una mezcla perfecta de acción y drama.» USA Today «Quizá la obra más compleja de Follett.» Cosmopolitan ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Ellis, the American. Jean-Pierre, the Frenchman. They were two men on opposite sides of the cold war, with a woman torn between them. Together, they formed a triangle of passion and deception, racing from terrorist bombs in Paris to the violence and intrigue of Afghanistan...to the moment of truth and deadly decision for all of them...

Four

El spin-off de la trilogía Divergente. Una elección lo rescatará de su pasado. Una elección marcará su futuro. Una elección desvelará el peligro. Una elección lo transformará... para siempre. Una elección lo liberará. Vuelve a experimentar el amor, el sacrificio y el peligro de la trilogía Divergente, ahora desde la perspectiva del carismático Tobias. En este esperado spin-off podrás encontrar cuatro historias: La transferencia, El iniciado, El hijo, El traidor y tres escenas más que darán a los lectores de Divergente la mirada popular de Tobias sobre distintos momentos únicos en la épica trilogía. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Fans of the Divergent trilogy by #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth will be thrilled by Four: A Divergent Collection, a companion volume that includes four pre-Divergent stories plus three additional scenes from Divergent, all told from Tobias's point of view. This collection also makes a great pick for fans of the blockbuster movies who want to delve deeper into the character played by Theo James. Readers first encountered Tobias as "Four" in Divergent. His voice is an integral part of Allegiant. Readers will find more of this charismatic character's backstory told from his own perspective in Four: A Divergent Collection. When read together, these long narrative pieces illuminate the defining moments in Tobias's life. The first three pieces in this volume—"The Transfer," "The Initiate," and "The Son"—follow Tobias's transfer from Abnegation to Dauntless, his Dauntless initiation, and the first clues that a foul plan is brewing in the leadership of two factions. The fourth story, "The Traitor," runs parallel with the events of Divergent, giving readers a glimpse into the decisions of loyalty—and love—that Tobias makes in the weeks after he meets Tris Prior. Also includes three additional scenes from Divergent, told from Tobias's point of view!

Ecos Del Corazon

A veces los deseos no se cumplen como uno había imaginado... Una historia de amor y ambición, de drama y traición, de sueños y desilusiones. Cuenta la leyenda que, cuando uno formula un deseo, la cueva de Castlebay, en los abruptos acantilados irlandeses, responde en vez de devolver el eco de la voz. En su día escuchó los deseos de David Power y Clare O'Brien, dos jóvenes que soñaban con volar lejos del pequeño pueblo costero en el que estaban atrapados. Años después, en Dublín, sus caminos se cruzan de nuevo. David es un estudiante de medicina ansioso por seguir los pasos de su padre y Clare ha conseguido una beca universitaria. Entre ellos surgirá una llama que les devolverá a Castlebay, donde la bruma matutina y la espuma de las olas serán testigos de una tormentosa historia de amor y ambición, de drama y traición, de sueños y desilusiones... La crítica ha dicho... «Unos personajes memorables y el retrato fidedigno de una pequeña comunidad irlandesa ofrecen tonos de frescura y pasión a un relato familiar.» Publishers Weekly «Una lectura compulsiva... Binchy es una gran contadora de historias.» The Observer «Una poderosa historia de amor y celos.» Sunday Telegraph «¡Con Castlebay, Maeve Binchy crea un lugar maravilloso!» The New York Times Book Review «Risas y llanto, lo que Binchy sabe hacer mejor.» Chronicle Book Review

Paper towns

Una joven desaparece dejando una serie de pistas que solo su mejor amigo de la infancia podrá descifrar... Una novela de John Green, el autor de Bajo la misma estrella. En su último año de instituto, Quentin no ha aprobado ni en popularidad ni en asuntos del corazón. Pero todo cambia cuando su vecina, la legendaria, inalcanzable y enigmática Margo Spiegelman, se presenta en mitad de la noche para proponerle que le acompañe en un plan de venganza inaudito. Después de una intensa noche que reaviva el vínculo de una infancia compartida y parece sellar un nuevo destino para ambos, Margo desaparece dejando tras de sí un extraño cerco de pistas que solamente Quentin posee la clave para descifrar. Con un estilo único que combina humor y sensibilidad, John Green, el autor de Bajo la misma estrella, teje una emotiva historia a la que da vida un inolvidable elenco de personajes. Ganadora del prestigioso premio Edgar, Ciudades de papel aborda los temas de la amistad, el amor y la identidad para plantearnos una pregunta: ¿vemos en los demás, y en nosotros mismos, solamente aquello que queremos ver? La crítica ha dicho... «Un escritor genial, con una voz que se adapta perfectamente con la historia que nos cuenta.» Booklist «Humor desternillante, y emoción sincera y sentida.» Kliatt

The Secret Woman

"One of the best romantic-suspense novelists."—Associated Press The ship and her captain were supposed to be her salvation, but they both may end up leaving her in deep water Anna Brett fears she's doomed to be a governess to an English family for the rest of her life. But when the dashing captain Redvers Stretton struts back into her life, she is whisked away from the bleak English countryside forever. But is that such a good thing? While the charming blue-eyed captain makes Anna forget her troubled past, he is hiding dark secrets of his own. It's no coincidence that Stretton's ship is named The Secret Woman. During their voyage to the South Seas, with a murder dogging her steps and the mystery of a missing treasure haunting her dreams, Anna is forced to confront the clever captain—a man who may have just as many secrets as she.

Le premier homme

La extraordinaria novela autobiográfica y póstuma de Albert Camus, de cuya publicación se cumplen 25 años en 2019. El «hombre» del título es tal vez el padre del niño Jacques Cormery, protagonista de esta obra. Pero poco se sabe de este padre emigrante, muerto en el frente de la Primera Guerra Mundial. El verdadero primer hombre es el hijo: sin padre, educado en un miserable barrio de las afueras de Argel por una abuela autoritaria, que le inflige castigos corporales ante una madre exhausta por su trabajo «en casas ajenas», ¿por qué caminos llegó ese niño a convertirse en Premio Nobel de Literatura? Esta novela, que narra cómo ese niño va construyéndose a sí mismo, es la historia de la niñez de Albert Camus.

The hours

The Pulitzer Prize-winning novel becomes a motion picture starring Meryl Streep, Julianne Moore, and Nicole Kidman, directed by Stephen Daldry from a screenplay by David Hare. The Hours tells the story of three women: Virginia Woolf, beginning to write Mrs. Dalloway as she recuperates in a London suburb with her husband in 1923; Clarissa Vaughan, beloved friend of an acclaimed poet dying from AIDS, who in modern-day New York is planning a party in his honor; and Laura Brown, in a 1949 Los Angeles suburb, who slowly begins to feel the constraints of a perfect family and home. By the end of the novel, these three stories intertwine in remarkable ways, and finally come together in an act of subtle and haunting grace.

Heyer's writing is impeccable and her research is without a doubt one of the best.' ***** 'This was always my favourite of GH's historicals.' ***** 'Loved this book and am now looking to read more Heyer historicals.' ***** 'I first read this novel many years ago and enjoyed it this time as much as I did the first time.' ***** 'Overall the Conqueror is the best of Georgette Heyer's pre-Georgian novels.'

Me Before You

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Giver of Stars and the forthcoming Someone Else's Shoes, discover the love story that captured over 20 million hearts in Me Before You, After You, and Still Me. They had nothing in common until love gave them everything to lose . . . Louisa Clark is an ordinary girl living an exceedingly ordinary life—steady boyfriend, close family—who has barely been farther afield than their tiny village. She takes a badly needed job working for ex–Master of the Universe Will Traynor, who is wheelchair bound after an accident. Will has always lived a huge life—big deals, extreme sports, worldwide travel—and now he’s pretty sure he cannot live the way he is. Will is acerbic, moody, bossy—but Lou refuses to treat him with kid gloves, and soon his happiness means more to her than she expected. When she learns that Will has shocking plans of his own, she sets out to show him that life is still worth living. A Love Story for this generation and perfect for fans of John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars, Me Before You brings to life two people who couldn’t have less in common—a heartbreakingly romantic novel that asks, What do you do when making the person you love happy also means breaking your own heart?

Time Traveler's Wife

Audrey Niffenegger; William Hope; Laurel Lefkow

A most untraditional love story, this is the celebrated tale of Henry DeTamble, a dashing, adventuresome librarian who inadvertently travels through time, and Clare Abshire, an artist whose life takes a natural sequential course. Henry and Clare’s passionate affair endures across a sea of time and captures them in an impossibly romantic trap that tests the strength of fate and basks in the bonds of love. “Niffenegger’s inventive and poignant writing is well worth a trip” (Entertainment Weekly).

An Abundance of Katherines

From the bestselling author of Turtles All the Way Down and The Fault in Their Stars, a beautiful tale of love, loss and not so fool proof mathematic equations. When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton's type is girls named Katherine. And when it comes to girls named Katherine, Colin is always getting dumped. Nineteen times, to be exact. On a road trip miles from home, this anagram-happy, washed-up child prodigy has ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a bloodthirsty feral hog on his trail, and an overweight Judge Judy-loving best friend riding shotgun - but no Katherines. Colin is on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which he hopes will predict the future of any relationship, avenge Dumpees everywhere, and finally win him the girl. Love, friendship, and a dead Austro-Hungarian archduke add up to surprising and heart-changing conclusions in this ingeniously layered comic novel about reinventing oneself.

At First Sight

How far can you run from your past? Jeremy Marsh once vowed he would never do three things: leave New York City, give his heart away again after barely surviving one failed marriage, and, most of all, become a parent. Now Jeremy is living in the small town of Boone Creek, North Carolina, married to Lexie, the woman he loves, and anticipating the birth of their daughter.
