Mr Lynch's holiday
Hoy -5% en libros

O'Flynn, Catherine

Retired bus driver and recent widower Dermot Lynch grabs his bags from the bus's dusty undercarriage and begins to climb the hill to his son's house. It is Dermot's first time in Spain and the first time he's been out of Birmingham in many years. When he finally arrives at the gates of the crumbling development, Dermot learns that Eamonn, only one of a handful of settlers in the half-finished ghost town of Lomaverde, has fallen prey to an alluring vision and is upside down in a dream that is slipping away. But Dermot finds something beautiful and nostalgic in Lomaverde's decline—something that is reminiscent of his childhood in Ireland. Soon he is the center of attention in the tiny group of expats where paranoid speculation, goat hunting, and drinking are just some of the ways to pass the days. As the happenings in Lomaverde take a strange turn, father and son slowly begin to peel back their pasts, and they uncover a shocking secret at the heart of this ad hoc community. With the depth, grace, and wry authenticity that have characterized Catherine O'Flynn's previous work, Mr. Lynch's Holiday gives us a story that again shimmers with the power of good old realism (Jane Smiley, The LA Times) about love, connection, and a father and son finding each other exactly when they need it most.

A l'intérieur, des piles de livres s'illuminèrent sous notre torche électrique, les grands écrivains occidentaux nous accueillirent à bras ouverts: à leur tête, se tenait notre vieil ami Balzac, avec cinq ou six romans, suivi de Victor Hugo, Stendhal, Dumas, Flaubert, Baudelaire, Romain Rolland, Rousseau, Tolstoï, Gogol, Dostoïevski, et quelques Anglais: Dickens, Kipling, Emily Brontë... Quel éblouissement! Il referma la valise et, posant une main dessus, comme un chrétien prêtant serment, il me déclara: avec ces livres, je vais transformer la Petite Tailleuse. Elle ne sera plus jamais une simple montagnarde.

A calling for Charlie Barnes
Hoy -5% en libros

Ferris, Joshua

Named a best book of the year by NPR, Vogue, and the New York Times Book Review, the hilarious and profound new novel from National Book Award finalist Joshua Ferris is “a fine American novel about family, love, and a decent but flawed man trying to be better (Stephen King). Someone is telling the story of the life of Charlie Barnes, and it doesn't appear to be going well. Too often divorced, discontent with life's compromises and in a house he hates, this lifelong schemer and eternal romantic would like out of his present circumstances and into the American dream. But when the twin calamities of the Great Recession and a cancer scare come along to compound his troubles, his dreams dwindle further, and an infinite past full of forking paths quickly tapers to a black dot.Then, against all odds, something goes right for a change: Charlie is granted a second act. With help from his storyteller son, he surveys the facts of his life and finds his true calling where he least expects it—in a sacrifice that redounds with selflessness and love—at last becoming the man his son always knew he could be.A Calling for Charlie Barnes is a profound and tender portrait of a man whose desperate need to be loved is his downfall, and a brutally funny account of how that love is ultimately earned.

The strange death of europe immigration
Hoy -5% en libros

Murray, Douglas

The Sunday Times number one bestseller The Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide. Declining birth-rates, mass immigration and cultivated self-distrust and self-hatred have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their own comprehensive change as a society. This book is not only an analysis of demographic and political realities, but also an eyewitness account of a continent in self-destruct mode. It includes reporting from across the entire continent, from the places where migrants land to the places they end up, from the people who appear to welcome them in to the places which cannot accept them. Told from this first-hand perspective, and backed with impressive research and evidence, the book addresses the disappointing failure of multiculturalism, Angela Merkel's U-turn on migration, the lack of repatriation and the Western fixation on guilt. Murray travels to Berlin, Paris, Scandinavia, Lampedusa and Greece to uncover the malaise at the very heart of the European culture, and to hear the stories of those who have arrived in Europe from far away. In each chapter he also takes a step back to look at the bigger issues which lie behind a continent's death-wish, answering the question of why anyone, let alone an entire civilisation, would do this to themselves He ends with two visions of Europe - one hopeful, one pessimistic - which paint a picture of Europe in crisis and offer a choice as to what, if anything, we can do next.

Dalmau, Miguel

El nombre de Julio Cortázar aún resuena en todo el mundo por su calidadliteraria y por su hondo compromiso con el ser humano. Considerado comouno de los autores más importantes del siglo XX, su vida fue tancontrovertida y apasionante como su obra. Escribió, viajó por diferentespaíses y pasó largas temporadas en ellos dejando un rastro imborrable deprofeta social, especialmente en tierras latinoamericanas. En todo esetiempo Cortázar nunca olvidó su destino y luchó por sus ideales, yafueran artísticos, políticos o metafísicos, y siempre bajo el paraguasde la literatura, su vieja amiga de la infancia que le acompañó hasta lamuerte.Pero tras este autor carismático y cosmopolita, se ocultaba un individuofuera de lo común: una persona de extraordinaria sensibilidad que viviómarcada por los traumas familiares y por una relación conflictiva con supropio país, Argentina. Cortázar fue hombre de grandes amores y deexcelentes amigos, también de oscuros secretos. Basándose en recienteshallazgos documentales, Miguel Dalmau construye una biografía rigurosa,vibrante y atrevida, un retrato que se aleja de los patrones académicosal uso para mostrarnos el lado más íntimo y desconocido de un artistaexcepcional.
