The first in a rich historical trilogy that draws on legend, by a literary craftsman and the author of The Sixteen Trees of the SommeNorway, 1880. Winter is hard in Butangen, a village secluded at the end of a valley. The lake has frozen, and for months the ground is too hard to bury the dead. Astrid Hekne dreams of a life beyond all this, beyond marriage, children, and working the land to the end of her days. Then Pastor Kai Schweigaard takes over the small parish, with its 700-year-old stave church carved with pagan deities. The two bells in the tower were forged by Astrid's forefather in the sixteenth century, in memory of conjoined twins Halfrid and Gunhild Hekne. They are said to hold supernatural powers.The villagers are wary of the pastor and his resolve to do away with their centuries-old traditions, though Astrid also finds herself drawn to him. And then a stranger arrives from Dresden, with grand plans for the church itself. For headstrong Astrid this may be a provocation too far.Talented architecture student Gerhard Schoenauer is an improbable figure in this rugged community. Astrid has never met anyone like him; he seems so different, so sensitive. She finds that she must make a choice: for her homeland and the pastor, or for an uncertain future in Germany.Then the bells begin to ring . . .

The Paris Trilogy is celebrated French author Colombe Schneck's first English language publication, translated by Lauren Elkin and Natasha Lehrer. Writing in response to Annie Ernaux and in conversation with Elena Ferrante, Colombe Schneck's three semi-autobiographical takes on a woman’s life form an elegant, powerful exploration of sexuality, bodily autonomy, friendship, loss and renewal. Colombe is seventeen in 1984 and carefree, busy discovering sex and studying for her baccalauréat.When she becomes pregnant her choice to have an abortion is never in question. Yet suddenly she must grapple with the body that has brought the precarity of her freedom into focus. Colombe and Héloïse are two little Parisian liberals, friends since the age of eleven.They look alike, have similar upbringings and for years they follow parallel paths: university, love affairs, work, marriage, children, divorce, more love affairs. They are the most enduring witnesses to each other’s lives, until illness betrays them. Colombe reconnects with Gabriel in her fifties; their relationship is passionate and transformative.As it unfolds, Colombe discovers many things about herself, including a newfound appreciation for swimming, and the euphoria and strength of a body learning when to push and when to let go. 'This is valuable writing. It has immense vitality. You will encounter a female narrator whose direct and bright-eyed stare at the world, and her self, is without shame or faux modesty.At the same time, it is also a deep study of existence, at various ages and stages in life.' — Deborah Levy

eBook: OD AUTORKY BESTSELLEROVÉ FANTASY SÉRIE „MEDVĚD A SLAVÍK“ Po tragické ztrátě nachází jedenáctiletá Ollie útěchu pouze v knihách. Když tedy v lese potká šílenou ženu, která se chystá hodit jednu do vody, o ničem nepřemýšlí. Vytrhne jí knihu z ruky a utíká pryč. V deskách útlého svazku nachází mrazivý příběh o dívce Beth, dvou bratrech, kteří se do ní zamilovali, a podivné dohodě, kterou uzavřeli s „usměvavým mužem“, děsivým přízrakem, který člověku splní ta nejtajnější přání, ale žádá oplátkou nejvyšší cenu. Ollie příběh fascinuje. Následujícího dne vyráží na školní výlet na místní farmu, což je místo s vlastní děsivou historií. Tam narazí na hroby lidí, o kterých četla v knize. Je možné, že je příběh o usměvavém muži skutečný?Ollie nemá moc času na úvahy – po cestě zpět se autobus porouchá a uvízne na kraji lesa, z kterého stoupá mlha. Učitel se musí vydat zpět na farmu pro pomoc a děti tak zůstávají v houstnoucí mlze jen s podivným řidičem. Ten dětem naznačuje, že by měly z autobusu utéct, než se úplně setmí. Na Olliiných rozbitých digitálních hodinkách se navíc rozsvítí děsivá zpráva: BĚŽ.

eBook: Ollie, Brian a Coco mají strašidelných zážitků po krk. Poté, co na podzim na školním výletě jen těsně unikli usměvavému muži a jeho zlověstným strašákům, se těší, že si užijí nějakou legraci. Lyžování na Jedlové hoře zní slibně, ale jejich nadšení se kvapem vytratí, když je sněhová bouře uvězní na chatě pouze s rodiči a záhadným lovcem duchů panem Volandem. Začnou se dít divné věci. Coco vidí přízraky a Ollie se zdají strašidelné sny o zmrzlých dívkách. Brian si je jistý, že když přijeli, stál vycpaný medvěd v hale na zadních – a nikoli na všech čtyřech jako teď. Jejich výprava za zábavou se rychle mění v další hrůzné setkání se záhrobím. Na Jedlové hoře sídlí duchové a jejich hlasy se domáhají pozornosti, naslouchat jim se ale nemusí vyplatit. V pokračování Zrádných mlh se Ollie, Coco a Brian musejí spolehnout na své přátelství a bystrou mysl, chtějí-li přežít další hrůzyplné dobrodružství.

Po dlouhé zimě strávené převážně pohromadě, zalezlí na co možná nejbezpečnějších místech, se zjara radostně chopí příležitosti vyrazit si s rodiči Ollie a Coco a kapitánem Dimmondsem na výletní lodi Cassandra na místní Champlainské jezero, ve kterém podle legendy žije příšera Champík.Jenomže Champík není tak přátelský chlapík, jak by se podle jeho jména dalo usuzovat. A loď zdaleka není bezpečné místo. V dalším z jejich dobrodružství se k nim připojí i Brianův dávný kamarád Phil, na kterého ale Brian v poslední době neměl moc času. Znovu se ocitnou ve světě za mlhou, znovu jim půjde o život a tentokrát to možná jeden z nich odskáče.
