In Evil Hour is the thrilling story of a Colombian society menaced by rumour and paranoia by the Nobel Laureate Gabriel García Márquez, author of the One Hundred Years of Solitude and Love in the Time of Cholera. As a small South American town sweats under an oppressive heat, an unknown person creeps through the night sticking malicious posters to walls and doors. When the contents of one poster lead to a murder, everyone knows that the town is threatened by a malevolent presence - but is there anything that the mayor, the doctor or the priest can do about it? In Evil Hour was the book which was to inspire my own career as a novelist. I owe my writing voice to that one book!

Audiokniha: Román Sto rokov samoty je považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a svetovej literatúry. Prvý krát vyšiel v roku 1967 a odvtedy bol preložený do viac ako 37 jazykov. Nápad na jeho napísanie sa zrodil v januári 1965, keď Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na dovolenku do Acapulca. Začul vravu mestečka Macondo a hneď vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný. Tento magický príbeh je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj fantazijných epizód. Rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka Macondo. Napriek tomu, že je Macondo len veľká osada obkolesená horami má svoje vojny, katastrofy aj svoje zázraky. V jej histórii, raste a úpadku je možné vidieť celú Latinskú Ameriku. Román Sto rokov samoty, ktorý spája politickú realitu s magickým realizmom, je jedným z najslávnejších a najodvážnejších románov 20. storočia. Audioknihu z verejných zdrojov podporil Fond na podporu umenia. Svet bol taký mladý, že veľa vecí ešte nemalo ani len meno, a kto chcel o nich rozprávať, musel na ne ukázať prstom.

Gabriel García Márquez has been described as the greatest writer in Spanish since Cervantes, and El coronel no tiene quien le escriba is considered to be one of his best works. This reflective and atmospheric novel is set in a small Colombian town where the frustrated and stubborn Colonel, a veteran of the War of a Thousand Days , is still, after thirty years, waiting for the letter authorising payment of his war pension. The old soldier and his wife mourn the brutal killing of their only son, and the story of their struggle against poverty and sickness culminates in the Colonel s defiant refusal to part with his cherished fighting cock, however serious the consequences. The moving narrative pays tribute to the resilience of human nature and man s will to survive in the face of heavy odds. The novel also throws light on the turbulent religious and political troubles in Latin America. Now revised to include an updated chronology and bibliography, Giovanni Pontiero s acclaimed critical edition provides English-speaking students with an introduction to, and notes on the text, and a selected vocabulary. -- .

A small masterpiece Colm Toibin, Daily Telegraph I don t know how many times I have reread the book, including several times in Catalan, with such effort that speaks volumes to my devotion to the novel Gabriel Garcia Marquez The fierce beauty of Rodoreda s writing makes it one of the masterpieces of modern European literature IndependentFirst published in 1962 as La Placa del Diamant , this is considered the most important Catalan novel of all time. This is a new English translation. It has previously been published in English as The Time of the Doves.Barcelona, early 1930s: Natalia, a pretty shop-girl from the working-class quarter of Gracia, is hesitant when a stranger asks her to dance at the fiesta in Diamond Square. But Joe is charming and forceful, and she takes his hand.They marry and soon have two children; for Natalia it is an awakening, both good and bad. When Joe decides to breed pigeons, the birds delight his son and daughter - and infuriate his wife. Then the Spanish Civil War erupts, and lays waste to the city and to their simple existence. Natalia remains in Barcelona, struggling to feed her family, while Joe goes to fight the fascists, and one by one his beloved birds fly away.A highly acclaimed classic that has been translated into more twenty-eight languages, In Diamond Square is the moving, vivid and powerful story of a woman caught up in a convulsive period of history. An extremely moving love story translated from the Catalan, which reveals much about the Spanish civil war as ordinary, non-political people had to live it Diana Athill Go along with Natalia on her night out and you ll soon find you d follow her anywhere.

Colm Tóibín, from the introduction Dark and beautiful and brilliant Sarah Moss, author of Ghost Wall Death in Spring is a dark and dream-like tale of a teenage boy s coming of age in a remote village in the Catalan mountains; a place cut off from the outside world, where cruel customs are blindly followed, and attempts at rebellion swiftly crushed. When his father dies, he must navigate this oppressive society alone, and learn how to live in a place of crippling conformity. Often seen as an allegory for life under a dictatorship, Death in Spring is a bewitching and unsettling novel about power, exile, and the hope that comes from even the smallest gestures of independence.

A captivating, eloquent and nuanced book, We All Go into the Dark is an absolute must-read for true-crime fans across the board.Three women were brutally murdered between early 1968 and late 1969, each after a night dancing at Glasgowâ ™s infamous Barrowland Ballroom. Their murders were linked and ascribed to the spectre of the well-dressed, scripture-quoting killer who had apparently stalked the cityâ ™s dancehalls. The figure was never caught or identified.But the intervening years spawned a legend that never quite lost its grip on the popular imagination of Glasgow. The killings provoked the countryâ ™s largest ever manhunt, as well as countless suspects, books, documentaries, earnest speculation, pub theorising and bouts of urban mythmaking.In We All Go into the Dark, Francisco Garcia delves into how Bible John has morphed across generations, interrogates our collective obsession with â ˜solvingâ ™ historic crimes and questions why some killings are forgotten with indecent haste and why others are never permitted to be forgotten at all.

A junkie looking for one last fix in a town full of ghosts .This is a ghost story. A junkie has gone to El Zapotal to die – to rent a room in this crumbling backwater, melt into one last fix, and not come back. For someone so ready to no longer be alive, though, he can’t stop clinging to the past. His old dog, Kid, who he abandoned. His love, Valerie, who he introduced to drugs. There’s no such thing as a good memory.El Zapotal doesn’t want him either. The people aren’t welcoming, the streets are empty except for strays, and he’s having trouble pacing his supply. As the drugs run out, the line between what’s real and what’s not blurs to the point of illegibility, and we’re left wandering a tenderly described hinterland of despair, hunger, and regret. García Elizondo has given us an homage to Pedro Páramo , a descent for the ages, a long goodbye with no clear line between the living and dead.

There has been no more terribly acute critic of America than this steel-conscious and death-conscious Spaniard, with his curious passion for the modernities of nickel and tinfoil and nitre . . . So wrote Conrad Aiken of Lorca s violent response to the New York he encountered as a student at Columbia University in 1929 and 1930. Born and brought up in Andalusia, Lorca s reaction to the brutality and loneliness of the vast city was one of amazement and indignation. His poetry moved away from the lyricism of the early Romanceros and became a vehicle for experimental techniques through which he expressed tortured feelings of alienation and dislocation. Based on a new edition of the original text, Greg Simon s and Steven White s new translation brings to life Lorca s arresting imagery. Christopher Maurer, a leading authority on Lorca s work, provides an enlightening introduction placing Poet in New York in context, and there are translations of Lorca s letters as well as a lecture he gave about the work. Illustrated with archive photographs, this comprehensive volume will make Lorca s masterpiece available to a whole new generation of readers.

The chief prosecution witness in the Moors Murders trial gives his account of the case after more than four decades of silenceDespite standing as chief prosecution witness in the Moors Murders trial, David Smith was vilified by the public due to the accusations thrown at him by Myra Hindley and Ian Brady about his involvement in their crimes. Hindley s later confession that she and Brady had lied in an attempt to reduce their sentences did little to diminish the slurs against his name. For over four decades, Smith was asked by writers and film-makers to tell his story. Apart from a handful of brief interviews, he always refused. Carol Ann Lee met Smith during her research for One of Your Own, her critically acclaimed biography of Hindley, following which he finally agreed to reveal all. In Evil Relations (previously published as Witness), interviews, archival research and, most significantly, David Smith s own vivid memoir are fused to create an unforgettable, often harrowing account of his life before, during and after the Moors Murders.David Smith lived in rural Ireland with his wife prior to his death in May 2012. He is survived by four children and several grandchildren. Carol Ann Lee is an acclaimed biographer and has written extensively on the Holocaust. Her most recent publication, One of Your Own, focused on the life and death of Myra Hindley.

When Life Falls Apart, Where Do You Turn for Answers?In a world where depression rates are skyrocketing despite unprecedented material abundance, pastor and scholar Gabriel N. E. Fluhrer tackles the most personal question we all face: Why do I suffer? This isn t another philosophical treatise on the problem of evilâ ”it s a deeply practical guide for anyone wrestling with depression, anxiety, chronic illness, abuse, poverty, or loss. Drawing from his nearly twenty years of pastoral experience and rigorous theological training, Fluhrer demonstrates why the Bible s answers to suffering stand apart from every other worldview. Unlike the hollow promises of escapism or the cold comfort of naturalism, Scripture offers a sovereign God who doesn t merely sympathize with our painâ ”He entered it through Jesus Christ. Through compelling real-life stories, from missionary Helen Roseveare s extraordinary faith amid horrific violence to athlete Greg LeMond s journey through childhood trauma, readers discover that suffering can actually become a pathway to deeper joy and unshakeable hope. This book doesn t promise quick fixes or prosperity theology. Instead, it offers something far better: the biblical truth that our trials have meaning, our God is good, and our suffering will end. Perfect for anyone seeking genuine hope in life s darkest moments.

‘Full of dark, deadpan humour, Brat is a raucous story of the messy, messed-up business of living, dying and having a family.’ Financial Times ‘A moving coming-of-age family story’ Observer #39;Iconic #39;, Radio 1I was in the waiting room. Then I was in the examination room. Gabriel’s skin is falling off. His dad is dead. He owes his editor a novel. His girlfriend won’t answer his calls. Tasked by his horribly well-adjusted brother with clearing out the family home for sale, Gabriel’s sanity quickly begins to unravel. His parents’ old manuscripts appear to change each time he reads them. A bizarre home video hints at long-buried secrets. And there’s a hideous man in the garden. Disquieting and hilarious, taut yet lyrical, blisteringly-paced but formally inventive, Brat is a mediation on grief, art and love that will leave you altered, breathless and desperate for more. From a stunningly original new talent, this is a debut novel unlike anything you have read before. ‘This original, clever story is brilliant on grief, madness and creativity. It’s beautifully written, hilarious and heart-breaking. I raced through it.’ Daily Mail ​‘For readers looking for something that will grip you from start to finish, Brat is sure to be your breath of fresh air. The novel crackles with gothic horror, deadpan humor, and a damning sense of alienation that you won’t soon shake.’ Chicago Review of Books ‘Smith #39;s picaresque first novel is told from the perspective of Gabriel, a writer struggling with numerous issues . . . a deeply gothic work that never quite settles the reader in a certain world as Gabriel’s foibles, ghostly visions, and uncertainties filter every moment. Written in short, clipped chapters and featuring uproarious dialogue (especially with Gabriel #39;s brother), this is a darkly comic and brilliantly unusual debut.’ Booklist ‘[Smith #39;s] dialogue shines . . . Readers who appreciate the morbidly funny and the just plain morbid will find a lot to love in these pages. A weird and darkly funny novel from a writer to watch.’ Kirkus ‘It #39;s a book about loss and the anxiety of the modern age, tinged with humor and deep insight that will stay with readers long after the last page is turned.’ Town Country #39;Gabriel Smith has written a truly unique and surprising book. He is the rarest thing: a distinctive stylist on the line and structure level. Brat is so strange and so funny. I laughed a lot while reading. #39; Rachel Connolly, author of Lazy City #39;Messy with glitched realities and body horror, Brat breathes the same thrillingly claustrophobic air as Inland Empire and Ubik. It’s a skin-shedding ouroboros of grief and laughter, and the most brain-melting British debut I’ve read in ages. #39; Ed Park, author of Same Bed Different Dreams #39;Gabriel Smith’s prose is like if Joan Didion and Shirley Jackson took Xanax and used the internet. Brat is a sharp, eerie, confident debut about grief, memory, art, and so much more. Smith is a major new talent. #39; Jordan Castro, author of The Novelist #39;Gabriel Smith’s jauntily creepy and hilarious tale of a grief-stalked scapegrace’s sloughing-off and regeneration of selves in the filial murk of a moldering homestead is a Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man for a new, quaking generation. Brat will unnerve and seduce you. #39; Garielle Lutz, author of Worsted #39;Smith #39;s picaresque first novel is told from the perspective of Gabriel, a writer struggling with numerous issues . . . a deeply gothic work that never quite settles the reader in a certain world as Gabriel’s foibles, ghostly visions, and uncertainties filter every moment.
