Hitman Anders and the Meaning of It All
The bestselling novel from the author of The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and The Girl Who Saved the King of Sweden
Sweet Sweet Revenge Ltd.
The brand-new adventure from the beloved author of The Hundred Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared.
The Girl Who Saved The King of Sweden (REPUBLISH) (Indonesian Edition)
Bahwa seorang gadis buta huruf kelahiran Soweto, sebuah perkampungan kumuh di Afrika Selatan, akan tumbuh dan kelak terkurung dalam sebuah truk pengangkut kentang bersama raja dan perdana menteri Swedia adalah kejadian dengan probabilitas statistik 1 : 45.766.212.810. Itu menurut perhitungan Nombeko Mayeki, si gadis buta huruf itu sendiri. Setelah meninggalkan Soweto yang suram tanpa masa depan, suatu hari Nombeko justru menjadi anomali dari probabilitas statistik yang dihitungnya sendiri. Bertemu raja dan perdana menteri Swedia bagi gadis sepertinya saja sudah luar biasa. Tetapi, terkurung di dalam truk pengangkut kentang bersama mereka? Yang benar saja! Kegilaan ini tidak akan terjadi kalau bukan karena bom atom ketujuh, bom atom yang seharusnya tidak ada. Nombeko tahu terlalu banyak tentangnya, dan sekarang (walau terpaksa), nasib dunia berada di tangannya. Bersama kakak beradik kembar yang salah satu keberadaannya tidak diakui secara resmi dan rekan lain yang tidak kompeten, Nombeko tahu misi ini tidak akan mudah. Dan, ya ... memang begitulah. [Mizan, Bentang, Jonas, Fiction, Literasi, Terjemahan, Best Seller, Remaja, Dewasa, Indonesia]
The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared
THE GLOBAL BESTSELLER Sitting quietly in his room in an old people's home, Allan Karlsson is waiting for a party he doesn't want to begin. His one-hundredth birthday party to be precise. The Mayor will be there. The press will be there. But, as it turns out, Allan will not . . . Escaping (in his slippers) through his bedroom window, into the flowerbed, Allan makes his getaway. And so begins his picaresque and unlikely journey involving criminals, several murders, a suitcase full of cash, and incompetent police. As his escapades unfold, Allan's earlier life is revealed. A life in which - remarkably - he played a key role behind the scenes in some of the momentous events of the twentieth century. Translated by Roy Bradbury.
