Questo sangue masticato
In his debut novel, Francesco Aloia comes to terms with the past and his family, keeping his grandmother Ada's teachings firmly in mind. After leaving home and finding his own path, he returns to the places of his childhood during a summer and confronts a particularly "overbearing" grandfather, Tanino 'e Bastimento, a man of honor who, after a couple of murders and many years in prison, after challenging a Camorra boss, now must face one final duel "in absentia"—this time with his grandson.

No digas nada
«La desaparición de uno de los nuestros no alcanza las noticias, porque no es noticia. El resto del planeta no piensa en ti: ni cuando esnifan tu coca, ni cuando visten la ropa que tú confeccionaste, ni cuando te echan de su país».
Esta es la historia de Alex, un chico introvertido que huye de México y ahora realiza unas prácticas en una universidad neerlandesa mientras intenta salvar lo que le queda. Para vivir, tiene que hablar; para sobrevivir, justo lo contrario.
No digas nada es una novela apasionante sobre fronteras cerradas y valentía sin límites, sobre el poder del lenguaje y la difusa distinción entre agresores y víctimas.
Todos los personajes de este libro son ficticios. Los hechos, no.
El libro se basa en años de investigación y en relatos de personas con experiencia en la huida o la expulsión, personas que trabajan en el ámbito del derecho de asilo, profesores de diversas universidades (mexicanas), psicólogos especializados en traumas, activistas de derechos humanos, periodistas, personas en la clandestinidad, y víctimas y autores de la violencia de los cárteles y las bandas. La historia arroja luz sobre el impacto de los gobiernos (internacionales) en las personas, así como sobre la violencia relacionada con las drogas y la violencia sexual. Además, esta conmovedora historia pone de manifiesto la compleja relación entre «países de drogas» como México y Europa: un continente que cierra cada vez más sus fronteras a los solicitantes de asilo y que, al mismo tiempo, es un gran consumidor y transitario de cocaína.

La rinnegata
A story of three generations of women, their courage and search for independence in the face of superstition and prejudice, in the spirit of Natalia Ginzburg and Elena Ferrante. In this striking debut, based on a true story, Valeria Usala bears witness to an age-old story of violence against women and takes us into the heart of rural Sardinia, where superstitions and cruelty coexist with the joys and companionship of a tight-knit community.
Teresa runs a shop and a tavern. But not even the family she has created with the man she loves can protect her from the malicious gossip of jealous locals, who are threatened by her independence. Her own mother, Maria, was made an outcast, and now Teresa is in turn forsaken by the villagers. Will she pay for her success with her life? Is she like a character in Greek tragedy, whose destiny is inevitable? A story that gives voice to the forgotten women of Sardinia—and to the one of women everywhere.

За Перекопом є земля
Крим. Саме тут минуло дитинство, юність і перше кохання головної героїні роману. Саме тут вона зрозуміла, що є українкою. Ні дідусь-підполковник КДБ, ані російська кров у венах не стали цьому на заваді.
Наче орнамент, у романі переплітаються кримськотатарська культура і українська історія. На сторінках книжки читач зустрінеться з кримськими татарами, караїмами, українцями, росіянами, німцями, євреями, греками, вірменами Криму, крок за кроком відкриватиме шафи з родинними скелетами. Разом з головною героїнею та її подругою Аліє пройде шлях від їхнього дитинства – з 1990-х – аж до окупації півострова Росією в 2014-му, з екскурсами в давнішу історію Криму.
«За Перекопом є земля» — це спроба відкрити материк для півострова, а півострів для материка з незвичного ракурсу. Адже і там, і там є земля. Її варто пізнати й повернути їй цілісність.
