From the New York Times best-selling author of Red, White & Royal Blue comes a new romantic comedy that will stop listeners in their tracks...For cynical 23-year-old August, moving to New York City is supposed to prove her right: that things like magic and cinematic love stories don’t exist, and the only smart way to go through life is alone. She can’t imagine how waiting tables at a 24-hour pancake diner and moving in with too many weird roommates could possibly change that. And there’s certainly no chance of her subway commute being anything more than a daily trudge through boredom and electrical failures.But then, there’s this gorgeous girl on the train.Jane. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile, showing up in a leather jacket to save August’s day when she needed it most. August’s subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon, she discovers there’s one big problem: Jane doesn’t just look like an old school punk rocker. She’s literally displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help her. Maybe it’s time to start believing in some things, after all.Casey McQuiston’s One Last Stop is a magical, sexy, big-hearted romance where the impossible becomes possible as August does everything in her power to save the girl lost in time.

A fines del siglo XIX, el fotógrafo estadounidense Edward Sheriff Curtis (1868-1952) emprendió un proyecto que duraría 30 años con el que pretendía realizar un monumental estudio acerca de los indios norteamericanos. Empleando un enfoque tanto artístico como científico, documentó ambiciosamente con palabras e imágenes los vestigios del tradicional modo de vida de los indios que ya estaba empezando a extinguirse. Con una dedicación personal incansable, Curtis visitó 80 tribus nativas americanas, desde la frontera mexicana hasta el estrecho de Bering, ganándose su confianza con paciencia y sensibilidad. El trabajo fotográfico de su vida fue publicado en 20 volúmenes entre 1907 y 1930 con el título El indio norteamericano. Se imprimieron solo 272 copias en total, así que hoy en día la posibilidad de hacerse con una de las originales es sumamente improbable. Este libro recoge la colección completa de láminas de Curtis sobre los indígenas americanos y las pone de nuevo al alcance del gran público, reconociendo así el extraordinario trabajo del fotógrafo, que crea un documento histórico de increíble valor al tiempo que consigue la excelencia en términos fotográficos.

An incandescent novel about the inheritance of trauma, wonder, and love across three generations of women.Nell McDaragh never knew her grandfather, the famed Irish poet Phil McDaragh.

When Phil abandons the family, Carmel struggles to reconcile “the poet” with the man whose desertion scars Carmel, her sister, and their cancer-ridden mother.The Wren, the Wren brings to life three generations of women who contend with inheritances—of abandonment and of sustaining love that is “more than a strand of DNA, but a rope thrown from the past, a fat twisted rope, full of blood.” In sharp prose studded with crystalline poetry, Anne Enright masterfully braids a family story of longing, betrayal, and hope.
