Dny jako podivné symptomy

Sisyfos bloudí peklem s prázdným invalidním vozíkem a není si úplně jistá, co tam vlastně hledá, kromě toho, že musí z denního stacionáře vyzvednout svou dceru s vícečetným postižením. Po misi, která pokaždé selže, se vrací do ošuntělého přízemního bytu prapodivné bytovky. Když se s ní dá zdánlivě zničehonic do řeči domácí, začne se Sisyfos najednou rozpomínat. Dny jako podivné symptomy je boj s otupělostí, hledání hranic mateřství, naděje i bezradnosti, života i smrti.

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.

Дарът

Каква следа оставяме? На какво сме готови, за да постигнем целта си? Какво бихме пожертвали, за да сме в мир със себе си? Две двойки, чиито пътища не би трябвало да се пресекат – различно социално положение, образование, среда. Общото помежду им – мечтата за дете. Тя ги изправя един срещу друг в най-важната битка в живота им.

Di me non sai

Lucio falls in love with "the boy" even before meeting him: just watching him from the window of his office is enough for him to become almost obsessed. When they finally meet, he discovers that Davide is much younger than him (still studying), and that he is elusive, unreliable, and "cruel" in the way only twenty-year-olds can be cruel. For two months, Lucio and Davide have dinner together, have sex, go to the beach, and often sleep at Lucio's place. However, Davide does not fall in love. He continues to seek Lorenzo, the only man he (perhaps) truly loved, of whom he keeps only a pixelated photo on an old cellphone. Like many twenty-year-olds, he is also confused, wounded, and willing to nestle into the routine of always having a Coca-Cola ready for him in the refrigerator. "Di me non sai" tells the story of a relationship lived in an opposite, incompatible way, whose nature is revealed to the reader only as the novel progresses. Alternating the perspectives of the two protagonists in short, sometimes very short chapters, Raffaele Cataldo shows the misalignment of feelings and the painful consequences it can have, the slow pace of hot Apulian summers, and the obsessive loves (present and absent) that, like wild oat seeds, cling to hair, shoes, and clothes.

Le bestie

“Non vorrei dire, ma secondo me le cose con Tom Keller cominciarono ad andare storte già da quella volta in cui i due zii lo portarono nel bosco di notte per fargli fare cose che un bambino di nove anni non avrebbe mai dovuto fare.” Così inizia Le bestie, il romanzo d’esordio di Gijs Wilbrink ambientato nella regione dell’Achterhoek, tra motociclette, bracconieri, allevamenti di visoni e loschi affari che non potrebbero avvenire alla luce del sole. In questa mistica terra di confine piena di segreti cresce Tom Keller, il più giovane rampollo della famiglia più famigerata della zona, dotato di un talento innato per il motocross. Quando anni dopo Tom sparisce all’improvviso, la figlia ribelle torna nella sua terra natale per cercarlo, causando una drammatica riunione di famiglia.

Pornorama

Esta es la historia de una telaraña de hilos rotos: si se logra aferrar uno, el resto se nos escapan. Es la historia de una inquietante serie de muertos en el mundo del porno entre Roma, Milán y Túrin, pero es también la historia de las investigaciones llevadas a cabo por la inspectora jefe Vittoria De Feo. Es la historia de cómo una pareja de veinteañeros, Bet y Teo, terminó tras las mismas pistas en busca de una oportunidad para relanzar su propio blog, y es la historia del intento de un periodista de cotilleo de conseguir la primicia de su vida. En torno a sus complicadas pesquisas se mueve un coro surreal de personajes grotescos: cirujanos que se enriquecen comerciando juguetes sexuales inspirados en la anatomía de las estrellas porno fallecidas, abogados luciferinos que tienen a sus aprendices con correa, analistas forenses que intentan triunfar como youtubers, exactores de programas para niños caídos en desgracia, psiquiatras que se disfrazan de aguacates durante las sesiones, influencers verborrágicos pasados de cocaína, representantes empalagosos de actrices porno. Todo ello acompañado y aderezado con drogas sintéticas y contratos de sumisión, manos cortadas y crostata de limón, conejos domésticos y programas basura, tiendas de Ikea y platós pornográficos. Tras el hallazgo más puro se desentrañan conjugaciones de una pornografía del ser para la cual, a estas alturas, ya no existe nada obsceno.
