Collaborating with Maryam, Dan feels a renewed sense of excitement and possibility he hasn’t felt with his wife in a long time. But when crisis hits at home, the extent of Dan’s betrayal is exposed and, as Amy contemplates alternative lives, the couple must confront whether the distances between them in the here and now are irreconcilable.Taking place over three non-consecutive but vitally important days for Amy, Dan, and their three sons, Come with Me is searing, entertaining, and unexpected—a dark comedy that is ultimately both a deeply romantic love story and a vivid tapestry of modern life.

A wild, witty tale of friendship, marriage, and infidelity, Comfort Me with Apples is full of the brilliant wordplay and delicious ironies that made Peter de Vries &“one of the best comic novelists that America has ever produced&” (Commentary).

When she became pregnant, he disappeared, and she gave up her baby for adoption. Five years ago, Caroline, a dedicated pathologist, reluctantly adopted a baby to please her husband. She prayed her misgivings would disappear; instead, she's questioning whether she's cut out for the role of wife and mother.

But when Juliette intercepts a letter to her husband from Tia that contains pictures of a child with a deep resemblance to her husband, her world crumbles once more. How could Nathan deny his daughter? And if he's kept this a secret from her, what else is he hiding? Desperate for the truth, Juliette goes in search of the little girl. And before long, the three women and Nathan are on a collision course with consequences that none of them could have predicted.

Their mother, on her deathbed, is desperate to find out what happened to Dee so the family hires a psychic to help find Dee’s body and bring them some semblance of peace. The appearance of the psychic plunges Peg back to the past, to those final carefree months when she last saw Dee—the summer the Journal Sentinel called “the deadliest . . . in the history of Milwaukee.” Serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer’s heinous crimes dominated the headlines and overwhelmed local law enforcement.

And now digging deep into her memory raises doubts and difficult—even terrifying—questions. Was there anything Peg could have done to prevent Dee’s disappearance? Who was really to blame for the family's loss? How often are our memories altered by the very act of voicing them? And what does it mean to bear witness in a world where even our own stories are inherently suspect?A heartbreaking page-turner, Willa C. Richards’ debut novel is the story of a broken family looking for answers in the face of the unknown, and asks us to reconsider the power and truth of memory.

Comida de domingo
by José Luís Peixoto«Uno de los escritores más dotados de su país».Le Monde «Peixoto tiene una maravillosa forma de interpretar el mundo, expresado en imágenes preciosas y con un extraordinario uso del lenguaje».The Times Literary Supplement En vísperas de cumplir noventa años, el señor Rui Nabeiro rememora su vida. De fondo, el Alentejo fronterizo, donde el contrabando ha servido para resistir la pobreza: metáfora de las múltiples e imprecisas fronteras que rodean la existencia y la literatura. Lavida de Nabeiro, desde sus humildes orígenes a la creación del imperio del café Delta, es un camino que corre paralelo a la historia y la geografía portuguesas, tocadas por figuras como Marcelo Caetano, Mário Soares o Felipe González, y por la Revolución de los Claveles o la guerra civil española. El talento narrativo y la prosa lírica de José Luis Peixoto elevan esta singular biografía al estatuto de novela, en una bellísima historia de Portugal contada a través de un relato familiar. Comida de domingo es una profunda reflexión sobre la vejez y el final de una vida, pero también sobre el profundo amor de una familia reunida en torno al patriarca para celebrar su aniversario. La comida del domingo contiene una promesa: el reencuentro con los hijos, los nietos y los bisnietos. Sin ellos, el viaje vitaldel señor Rui no tendría sentido, y él sabe mejor que nadie que, aunque el final del camino esté cerca, ha sido un hermoso trayecto. La crítica ha dicho:«Siendo una novela, pero también una biografía, el autor hace una lectura de un Portugal diferente, que refleja la vida en el campo entre el período de 1931 y 2021, entre la dictadura y la democracia, de una manera tierna y amena que sentiremos como una parte de nuestra propia historia personal».Nuno Ferreira, mediotejo.net «Ya sabíamos que José Luís Peixoto es un gran escritor, principalmente porque logra extraer de la realidad una verdad y una interpretación tan limpia que casi duele, dejándonos a veces derramar más de una lágrima, pero, al mismo tiempo, es un orgullo de esta tierra, que es nuestra, también suya y más aún del comandante Rui Nabeiro».MF Perdigão Alves y António Louro Alves, Diário do Sul«José Luís Peixoto es un maestro mensajero, sin intermediarios, sin ser afectado por ruidos externos, está conectado directamente con el campo [...]. El autor utiliza la forma de biografía para construir una novela […] con una dimensión atemporal. El resultado es un negocio del que los lectores son los mayores beneficiados y que podría generar aún más beneficios si fuera la base del guion de una película, lo tiene todo. Este libro está en la estantería para ser vendido, pero, así como un producto literario va mucho más allá de la escritura, la escritura de Peixoto es mucho más que un producto literario».Joao Melo, Plataforma SobreGalveias:«Una de las revelaciones más sorprendentes de la literatura portuguesa».José Saramago «Como Saramago, José Luis Peixoto es un escritor tocado por el genio».Urbano Tavares Rodrigues
