Libro: The Ghost Theatre (978-1-5266-5436-6) de Osman, Mat (Bloomsbury Publishing Inc ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. BOOK OF THE YEAR - EVENING STANDARD, OBSERVER and THE TIMES 'Beautifully written and completely convincing' Observer 'An excellent novel - riotous and abundant, full of vivid, dirty life' Guardian On a rooftop in Elizabethan London two worlds collide. Shay is a messenger-girl and trainer of hawks who sees the future in the patterns of birds. Nonesuch is the dark star of the city's fabled child theatre scene, as famous as royalty yet lowly as a beggar. Together they create The Ghost Theatre: a troupe staging magical plays in London's hidden corners. As their hallucinatory performances incite rebellion among the city's outcasts, the pair's relationship sparks and burns against a backdrop of the plague and a London in flames. Their growing fame sweeps them up into the black web of the Elizabethan court, where Shay and Nonesuch discover that if they fly too high, a fall is sure to come. Fantastical and captivating, The Ghost Theatre charts the rise and dramatic destruction of a dream born from love and torn apart by betrayal. 'Wildly inventive and full of fantastical elements jostling alongside gritty realism' The Times 'Rich and evocative with shades of Angela Carter' Ever Dundas 'A story of rebellion and magic, of mysticism and broken love in the streets and theatres and rooftops of Elizabethan London. Beautifully written, delicate and sad. I'm still haunted by it' Mariana Enriquez 'Brings the underworld of Elizabethan London to life with its child theatres, rioting apprentices and anarchic world, its jumble of squalor and glamour... larger-than-life heroes raise child rebellions; pursue exalted, treacherous love affairs... Glorious!' Sandra Newman 'Hauntingly beautiful . Thrilling and thought-provoking' Independent 0

Libro: Hard by a Great Forest (978-1-5266-5981-1) de Leo Vardiashvili (Bloomsbury Publishing Inc ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. 'This novel annihilated me. I gasped, laughed, and wept my way through it' KHALED HOSSEINI 'Tender and raw and funny, it's a rattling good read' COLUM MCCANN 'A wildly charming debut - propulsive, funny, and profound' ELIF BATUMAN Tbilisi's littered with memories that await me like landmines. The dearly departed voices I silenced long ago have come back without my permission. The situation calls for someone with a plan. I didn't even bring toothpaste. Saba is just a child when he flees his home in Georgia with his older brother, Sandro, and father, Irakli, for asylum in the UK after Russia's occupation of South Ossetia. Two decades later, all three men are struggling to make peace with the past, haunted by the places and people they left behind. When Irakli decides to return to Georgia, pulled back by memories of a lost wife and a decaying but still beautiful homeland, Saba and Sandro wait eagerly for news. But within weeks of his arrival, Irakli disappears, and the final email they receive from him causes a mystery to unfold before them: ' My boys, I did something I can't undo. I need to get away from here before those people catch me. Maybe in the mountains I'll be safe. I left a trail I can't erase. Do not follow it.' In a journey that will lead him to the very heart of a conflict that has marred generations and fractured his own family, Saba must retrace his father's footsteps to discover what remains of their homeland and its people. By turns savage and tender, compassionate and harrowing, Hard by a Great Forest is a powerful and ultimately hopeful novel about the individual and collective trauma of war, and the indomitable spirit of a people determined not only to survive, but to remember those who did not. 0

Libro: Assyria (978-1-5266-2382-9) de Frahm, Eckart (Bloomsbury Publishing Inc ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. The first comprehensive account of the rise and fall of what historians consider to be the world's very first empire: Assyria 'A work of remarkable synthesis. The range of its sources is truly extraordinary . . . Frahm punctures a fair share of myths too' Pratinav Anil, The Times At its height in 660 BCE, the kingdom of Assyria stretched from the Mediterranean Sea to the Persian Gulf. It was the first empire the world had ever seen. Here, historian Eckart Frahm tells the epic story of Assyria and its formative role in global history. Assyria's wide-ranging conquests have long been known from the Hebrew Bible and later Greek accounts. But nearly two centuries of research now permit a rich picture of the Assyrians and their empire beyond the battlefield: their vast libraries and monumental sculptures, their elaborate trade and information networks, and the crucial role played by royal women. Although Assyria was crushed by rising powers in the late seventh century BCE, its legacy endured from the Babylonian and Persian empires to Rome and beyond. Assyria is a stunning and authoritative account of a civilisation essential to understanding the ancient world and our own. 0

Whatever it takes... Daughter of an ousted king. Descendant of powerful druids. Destined to take her place in history. As a child, Gruoch's grandmother prophecies that she will one day be Queen of Alba and reclaim the lands of her Pictish kin. When, many years later, she is betrothed to Duncan, the heir-elect, the prophecy appears to come true. Determined to never to be as powerless as her parents, Gruoch leaves behind her home, her family and her friend MacBethad, and travels to the royal seat at Scone to seal her fate.

An unputdownable, sweeping historical epic, Lady MacBethad reimagines the life of Gruoch - the real life Scottish Queen who inspired one of Shakespeare's most famous characters.

No other country has been so divided over its own past as Russia. None has changed its story so often. How the Russians came to tell their story, and to reinvent it as they went along, is a vital aspect of their history, their culture and beliefs. To understand what Russia's future holds - to grasp what Putin's regime means for Russia and the world - we need to unravel the ideas and meanings of that history. In The Story of Russia , Orlando Figes brings into sharp relief the vibrant characters that comprise Russia's rich history, and whose stories remain so important in making sense of the world's largest nation today - from the crowning of sixteen-year-old Ivan the Terrible in a candlelit cathedral, to Catherine the Great, riding out in a green uniform to arrest her husband at his palace, to the bitter last days of the Romanovs. Beautifully written and based on a lifetime of scholarship, The Story of Russia is a major and definitive work from the great storyteller of Russian history: sweeping, suspenseful, masterful. ------------------------- PRAISE FOR ORLANDO FIGES ' An outstanding historian and writer, he brings distant history so close that you could feel its heartbeat ' KARL OVE KNAUSGAARD 'Figes knows more about Russia than any other historian' MAX HASTINGS, SUNDAY TIMES 0

Libro: Against the Loveless World (978-1-5266-1881-8) de Abulhawa, Susan (Bloomsbury Publishing Inc ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. 2020 Palestine Book Awards Winner 2021 Aspen Words Literary Prize Finalist "Susan Abulhawa possesses the heart of a warrior; she looks into the darkest crevices of lives, conflicts, horrendous injustices, and dares to shine light that can illuminate hidden worlds for us." --Alice Walker, Pulitzer Prize-winning author In this "beautiful...urgent" novel (The New York Times), Nahr, a young Palestinian woman, fights for a better life for her family as she travels as a refugee throughout the Middle East.As Nahr sits, locked away in solitary confinement, she spends her days reflecting on the dramatic events that landed her in prison in a country she barely knows. Born in Kuwait in the 70s to Palestinian refugees, she dreamed of falling in love with the perfect man, raising children, and possibly opening her own beauty salon. Instead, the man she thinks she loves jilts her after a brief marriage, her family teeters on the brink of poverty, she's forced to prostitute herself, and the US invasion of Iraq makes her a refugee, as her parents had been. After trekking through another temporary home in Jordan, she lands in Palestine, where she finally makes a home, falls in love, and her destiny unfolds under Israeli occupation. Nahr's subversive humor and moral ambiguity will resonate with fans of My Sister, The Serial Killer, and her dark, contemporary struggle places her as the perfect sister to Carmen Maria Machado's Her Body and Other Parties. Written with Susan Abulhawa's distinctive "richly detailed, beautiful, and resonant" (Publishers Weekly) prose, this powerful novel presents a searing, darkly funny, and wholly unique portrait of a Palestinian woman who refuses to be a victim. 0

Libro: The Love Interest (978-1-5266-6758-8) de Comerford, Helen (Bloomsbury Publishing Inc ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. A swoony, speculative and entirely electric YA debut with a humorous and satirical take on the conventions of the superhero-verse. Fans of Michelle Quach's Not Here To Be Liked and the Marvel Universe, including Spider-Man and Ms Marvel, will love this! Seventeen-year-old Jenna Ray lives in the quiet coastal town of Nine Trees. Despite its picturesque nature, it is also the epicentre of the next prophecy. It is said that in the year 2024 a new Hero will emerge in Nine Trees - an event that is usually accompanied by a catastrophic disaster. When Blaze, the new Hero, does arrive, Jenna has the misfortune of being the first person he saves. And, in the eyes of the public, that means one thing: Jenna Ray has already been cast as the Love Interest. Nothing could be more repellent to Jenna than being a love interest, even if Blaze is cute. But her plans to defy the HPA (the Heroics and Power Authority) and turn down this new role are thwarted when she uncovers the truth about her mum, who she hasn't seen in ten years, and is faced with a life-changing proposition: become Blaze's love interest to get close to him and learn about the HPA's secret plans, and she can see her mum again. As Jenna takes the mantle of the next Love Interest, even if she is faking it, feelings for Blaze become real - she can't resist his charm, good looks and the genuine connection they've made. And to make things even more complicated, just as Jenna starts to embrace her new-found career, she discovers she might be more on the side of the superheroes than she ever imagined . 0

Libro: Not for the Faint of Heart (978-1-5266-5184-6) de Croucher, Lex (Bloomsbury Publishing Inc ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. 'You aren't merry,' said Clem to her captor. 'And you aren't all men. So there's been some marketing confusion somewhere along the line.' When Mariel finds out that her band of Merry Men have kidnapped the wrong person, she's a whole new level of miffed. They were supposed to be bringing back the regional healer, Old Rosie, who, rumour has it, has been aiding the Sheriff of Nottingham. They were not supposed to kidnap her assistant, Clem - a chatty, freckled, curly-haired whirlwind of a teenage girl who is unnervingly cheerful about being knocked out with horrible-smelling herbs and bundled into the back of a wagon. As the granddaughter of Robin Hood and a newly blooded captain of the Merry Men, Mariel has a lot to prove, and this mission has gone instantly and massively pear-shaped . So begins a love story to rival that of Robin Hood and Maid Marian, and an adventure that will change the lives of the inhabitants of the Greenwood for good - not to mention the course of myth and history. 0

Libro: American Mother (978-1-5266-6347-4) de Foley, Diane; McCann, Colum (Bloomsbury Publishing Inc ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. The English language has no specific word for the parent that has lost a child. There exist words for orphan, widow and widower, but there is no word that captures and conveys this tragic type of loss. It has been eleven years since Diane Foley's son, the American journalist James Foley, was kidnapped in northern Syria, and nearly ten since that day in August 2014 when she would learn that he had been murdered by ISIS in a public beheading that would ricochet in video around the world. A whole decade. Time rushes past. And yet, for Diane, that moment is unending. In American Mother , legendary author Colum McCann tells Diane's story as she recalls the months of his captivity, the efforts made to bring him home and the days following his death, in which Diane came face to face with one of the men responsible for her son's kidnapping and torture. A testament to the power of radical empathy and moral courage, American Mother takes us inside one woman's extraordinary journey to find connection in a world torn asunder, and to fight for others as a way to keep her son's memory alive. 0
