Hyde
Un experimento los ha llevado hasta allí, pero desconocen el verdadero propósito de su llegada... «-¿Y si... y si el asesino todavía se encuentra en la casa? La repentina aparición de Diana, que acababa de entrar en la habitación, interrumpió aquella conversación. -He llevado a Andrea al salón -comunicó, muy seria-. Allí también nos hemos encontrado con una... sorpresa. Tenéis que bajar. Ya. Hugo contuvo el aliento. Procuró leer en el semblante conmocionado de Diana, sin conseguirlo. ¿Otra sorpresa? -¿No podemos quedarnos un poco más? Todos se volvieron hacia la voz que había pronunciado aquella extraña petición. Se trataba de una voz sosegada, que traslucía una emoció...
That Book Woman
An exquisitely illustrated paean to everyone who struggles to learn how to read, and to everyone who won’t give up on them. Cal is not the readin' type. Living way high up in the Appalachian Mountains, he'd rather help Pap plow or go out after wandering sheep than try some book learning. Nope. Cal does not want to sit stoney-still reading some chicken scratch. But that Book Woman keeps coming just the same. She comes in the rain. She comes in the snow. She comes right up the side of the mountain, and Cal knows that's not easy riding. And all just to lend his sister some books. Why, that woman must be plain foolish—or is she braver than he ever thought? That Book Woman is a rare and moving tale that honors a special part of American history—the Pack Horse Librarians, who helped untold numbers of children see the stories amid the chicken scratch, and thus made them into lifetime readers.
Calila
Calila: The Later Novels of Carmen Martín Gaite explores the last six novels by Spain ́s most honored contemporary woman writer. Its scholarship is enriched by the voice of Calila herself—as Brown called Martín Gaite, who was a dear friend—as they conversed and exchanged letters during the composition of the novels. The book opens with an introduction to Martín Gaite ́s life and literature and ends with a consideration of her legacy. Each central chapter analyzes a later novel in its historical, biographical, and critical contexts. From the young adult fantasy Caperucita en Manhattan (Red Riding Hood in Manhattan) to the post-Transition epistolary masterpiece Nubosidad variable (Variable Cloud), the Transition-era saga La Reina de las Nieves (The Farewell Angel), the Proustian reminiscence Lo raro es vivir (Living’s the Strange Thing), the narrative tapestry Irse de casa (Leaving Home), and the memoir of family secrets Los parentescos (Family Relations), these fascinating novels evoke themes that resonate today.

La porta oscura. Il Male
Pascal e i suoi amici vengono nuovamente catapultati in un incubo. Durante il salvataggio di Michelle dal Mondo dei Morti, infatti, qualcosa li ha seguiti. Qualcosa di perfido e di orribile, un’entità malvagia, la personificazione del Male, che vuole tornare nel mondo dei vivi. Quando Pascal rifiuta di cedere alle lusinghe del Male, lo scontro si fa inevitabile e il viaggio attraverso la Porta Oscura non può più essere rimandato. Ma non è solo nel Mondo dei Morti che si celano insidie e pericoli: mentre il Viaggiatore combatte nell’Aldilà, i suoi amici nella Parigi dei vivi lottano contro un potente stregone malvagio, sicari prezzolati, morti tornati in vita e vampiri. Mozzafiato, spaventoso, imprevedibile: il secondo viaggio attraverso la Porta Oscura, il varco che congiunge il nostro mondo a quello dei morti. Il libro che ha stregato la Spagna.
