Impatto
by Sara Benatti John InmanA ventisei anni, Gordon Stafford pensa di avere i giorni contati. O almeno spera che lo siano. Prostrato dal senso di colpa e dal rammarico che scaturiscono dal terribile incidente d’auto di due anni prima in cui è rimasto ucciso un uomo, si sveglia ogni mattina con idee suicide. Anche se la legge gli ha assegnato un lavoro perché possa espiare le sue colpe, la redenzione personale è molto più difficile da raggiungere. Poi Squirt – un semplice senzatetto che ha la sua croce da portare – lo salva da un destino terribile. Nel corso di quella notte, Gordon trova non solo una nuova luce da seguire, e forse persino uno scopo nella vita, ma anche la possibilità di un amore che lo aspetta alla fine del tunnel. Gordon non avrebbe mai immaginato che sarebbe riuscito in qualche modo a perdonare se stesso, aprendo così il cuore abbastanza da ricevere accettazione e amore… proprio dalla persona a cui ha fatto più male.

by Milena Agus«Nadie ama de verdad y quien ama no ama desinteresadamente.» Un mundo donde el encanto y el desencanto se mezclan sin llegar nunca a pronunciar un veredicto. Tres hermanas ocupan tres apartamentos de un aristocrático y derruido palacio en Cerdeña, que en otros tiempos les perteneció por completo. La mayor, Noemi, sueña con el esplendor perdido, mientras la segunda, Maddalena, maga del Kamasutra, con tener un hijo. La tercera, y más frágil, conocida como «la condesa de mantequilla», sueña con el amor. Es la única que tiene un hijo: Carlino. Un vecino misterioso, una vieja tata y Elías, el pastor,completan el reparto de personajes de esta asombrosa novela en la que Milena Agus nos transporta a su peculiar mundo. La crítica ha dicho:«Una gran escritora... Milena Agus consigue atrapar al lector en ese mundo tan original y tan suyo. Mágico. Sexual. Sensible. Humano.»El Mundo «Exquisita sutileza. Sin estruendo ni grandes alardes temáticos o de estilo, austera, poéticamente concisa y muy medida, poco dada a los fuegos de artificio, Milena Agus consigue transmitir una rara y sobrecogedora emoción e intensidad.»Mercedes Monmany, ABC «Un cuento de ilusiones y amores rotos [...] que recuerda a la cinta francesa Amélie. Pero La imperfección del amor es latina, mediterránea, italiana, sensual y sonora, en sus páginas oímos el ruido de los patios de vecinos, los murmullos de la calle, las voces de una Cerdeña misteriosa y mágica, cómplice con el lector.»Eduardo Martínez Carnicer, Diario del Altoaragón «Una novela llena de poesía y de vida. Su leve gracia filosófica recuerda La elegancia del erizo. Milena Agus conoce el significado de la palabra narrar.»Cristina De Stefano, Elle (Italia) «Pocos son los libros capaces de atraer de forma tan sencillay directa como lo hace La imperfección del amor [...] genial cuento que, seguro, conseguirá encandilar a un lector diverso y capaz de degustar obras sencillas pero fabulosas.»Miguel Rivera, Cineatralia «Chéjov renace en Cagliari.»La Repubblica «La imperfección del amor: amores, mundos encantados y ternura en lengua sarda.»Giovanni Tesio, La Stampa «Breve y cautivadora como sus anteriores obras, esta novela reafirma la idea que subyace en la narrativa de Agus: las ilusiones nunca se pierden.»Silvia Neonato, Il Secolo XIX «La nueva historia familiar que relata Milena es singular, extraña, misteriosa, excéntrica y profundamente real.»L'Unione Sarda «Su prosa es sobria, humilde. Su virtud consiste precisamente en contar de modo sencillo cosas complejas.»Filippo La Porta, Left «De vez en cuando toca hacer las paces con las listas de los más vendidos. No sólo hay best-sellers presuntuosos y vacíos, no sólo hay "libros que están de moda"; entre las novelas más vendidas también se pueden encontrar pequeñas obras maestras, como ésta.»WUZ «La ingravidez y la elegancia lacónica de su escritura le permiten caracterizar felizmente las vidas entrelazadas de estas tres hermanas, cínicas y frívolas, superficiales y lunáticas, divertidas y amargas.»Le Figaro Magazine «Una forma única de hacer entrar la sensualidad y la espontaneidad en nuestras vidas.»Elle (Francia) «Una novelita deliciosa, estrafalaria, de humor grave, que explora el irreprimible deseo de plenitud presente en las mujeres.»La Vie «Pocos libros llegan tanto al corazón como éste.»Elle (Alemania)
