Roman distins cu Prix Goncourt des lycéens 2016Bestseller absolut ?n Fran?a ?i distins cu nenum?rate premii,?Mica ?ar??este o poveste zguduitoare, pe fundalul genocidului din Rwanda ?i al r?zboiului civil din Burundi, despre inocen?a copil?riei strivite de valurile brutale ale istoriei.?n 1992, Gabriel, ?n v?rst? de zece ani, tr?ie?te o copil?rie idilic? ?n Bujumbura, capitala micii ??ri africane Burundi, ?mpreun? cu tat?l s?u francez, mama rwandez? ?i cu sora lui mai mic?. Din nefericire, lumea sa se pr?bu?e?te doi ani mai t?rziu, odat? cu genocidul din aprilie–iulie 1994, c?nd ?n Rwanda popula?ia tutsi este masacrat?. ?n urma acestei tragedii, mama lui Gabriel ??i pierde min?ile ?i vie?ile tuturor se vor schimba radical. Gabriel ?i sora lui vor pleca ?n Fran?a cu un elicopter trimis ca s?-i salveze.Dup? dou?zeci de ani ?ns?, Gabriel se va ?ntoarce ?n Burundi, ?ncerc?nd s? reg?seasc? o lume pe care o crezuse pierdut? pentru totdeauna.Mica ?ar??ofer? o viziune despre lume care nu este politic?, ci poetic?, ?ncerc?nd s? surprind? toat? frumuse?ea ?i oroarea vie?ii.?Le Figaro"Abia mai t?rziu mi-am dat seama c? Burundi este o ?ar? s?rac?. ?n copil?rie, nu realizam s?r?cia din jur, a?a c? a fost important s? vorbesc despre asta ?n roman. B?ie?elul care tr?ia ?n acea ?ar? era protejat de o cu totul alt? lume, o lume a c?r?ilor lui. O lume care s-a n?ruit." - Ga?l Faye

Am ?nceput s? scriu acest text aproape imediat dup? moartea tat?lui meu. F?r? s?-mi dau seama, scriam cu m?nie ?i cu revolt?, de?i credeam c? ?mi impun o privire impar?ial?, de jurnalist, asupra evenimentelor, personajelor ?i a mea ?ns?mi. Recitind, ?n perioade lini?tite, m? ?ntrebam dac? cei din jurul meu nu erau ?i ei con?tien?i de clocotul meu interior ?i, dac? erau, de ce nu-mi spunea nimeni nimic. Pe parcursul anilor, din textul ini?ial nu a r?mas dec?t titlul, acest Whole Lotta Love pe care tata ?l asculta pe repeat, acas?. Cu voia sau f?r? voia mea, firele narative s-au contopit ?ntre ele ?i, ?n cele din urm?, mi-am scris propria poveste de dragoste. Tata cred c? m? ?n?elege, de unde e el. C?nd eram mai mic?, ?mi doream s? pot avea ?ncredere total? ?n cel care scrie ?i, dac? s-ar ?nt?mpla s? ne ?nt?lnim pe strad?, persoana scriitorului s? fie ca textul pe care ?l citisem ceva mai devreme. Nu v? pot cere ?ncrederea voastr? total? (de?i a? cam avea nevoie de ea! ?), dar sunt sigur? c?, dac? ne ?nt?lnim, ve?i recunoa?te ?n mine aerul din care e f?cut? Whole Lotta Love.

Vajon miért építtet fel egy épületet a városka melletti félrees? helyen a helyi k?z?sség k?zkedvelt, ámde kül?n?s megszállottságtól vezérelt lelkésze az 1800-as évek végén az Egyesült ?llamokban, kockáztatva ezzel papi hivatását is? ?s miért pont ott? A válasz vele együtt odavész, amikor jó pár év elteltével ? maga is nyomtalanul elt?nik. Rokonai, ?r?k?sei nem feszegetik ezt a kérdést, a ház megmarad, de egyikük sem lakik ott t?bbé, amíg az ?reg épület új gazdára nem talál. Az új tulajdonos, Jane, a harmincas éveiben járó sikeres üzletasszony fiával, Jeffel k?lt?zik be a házba. A fiú nemrég átélt autóbusz balesete óta amnéziás. Az érdekl?dését felkelti az épület eredetét ?vez? titok, miután az el?z? tulajdonos megemlíti ezt nekik. Ahogy kutakodni kezd, ráj?n, hogy az épület a furcsa tárgyak, meglep? helyek és megmagyarázhatatlan események tárháza. Ráadásul, mint az évszázados álmából felzavart szellem, a múlt árnya nyugtalanító álmokkal gy?tri ?t, mintha csak erre várt volna! Ek?zben egy távoli városban egy kómában fekv? építési vállalkozóért, Peterért aggódnak a szerettei. Jeffet nem ismerik, és nem is sejtik, hogy bármi k?zük lenne hozzá és a rejtélyes épülethez, pedig van. Nagyon is sok! Mire Jeff felderíti a ház titkait, az ?sszefüggések is lassan k?rvonalazódnak, ám a t?rténetnek ezzel még k?zel sincs vége…

Ríviai Geralt a thaneddi puccs után Brokilonban lábadozik. Egy világ választja el Cirit?l, a Meglepetés Gyermekt?l, akit pedig állítólag neki rendelt a sors – a lányt ugyanis Nilfgaardban látták utoljára. A vaják tehát hosszú és veszélyes útra indul a driádok földjér?l a háború sújtotta vidéken keresztül, de nem marad sokáig egyedül: ahogy közeledik úticéljához, egyre többen csatlakoznak hozzá… E furcsa kompánia végül egy olyan konfliktusba csöppen, melyet csak véres küzdelmek árán élhetnek túl. „Keresztül kell jutnod a t?zön, amely megperzsel ugyan, de meg is tisztít.” (Ríviai Geralt) A vaják-saga következ? kötete A megvetés idejének közvetlen folytatása. A lengyel szerz? ismét elröpíti az olvasót a szláv mítoszok és a valóság ihlette fantáziavilágába, ahol a tét nem csupán egy szörnyvadász vagy egy kislány élete, de az Északi Királyságok sorsa is.

“Ah there, girls! How are you?”—“GOD SPEED YOU” “Oh, Nathalie, I do believe there’s Grace Tyson in her new motor-car,” exclaimed Helen Dame, suddenly laying her hand on her companion’s arm as the two girls were about to cross Main Street, the wide, tree-lined thoroughfare of the old-fashioned town of Westport, Long Island.Nathalie Page halted, and, swinging about, peered intently at the brown-uniformed figure of a young girl seated at the steering-wheel of an automobile, which was speeding quickly towards them. Yes, it was Grace, who, in her sprightliest manner, her face aglow from the invigorating breezes of an April afternoon, called out, “Ah there, girls! How are you? Oh, my lucky star must have guided me, for I have something thrilling to tell you!” As she spoke the girl guided the car to the curb, and the next moment, with an airy spring, had landed on the ground at their side.With a sudden movement the uniformed figure clicked her heels together and bent stiffly forward as her arm swung up, while her forefinger grazed her forehead in a military salute. “I salute you, comrades,” she said with grave formality, “at your service as a member of the Motor Corps of America. “Yes, girls,” she shrilled joyously, forgetting her assumed r?le in her eagerness to tell her news, “I’m on the job, for I’m to see active service for the United States government. I’ve just returned from an infantry drill of the Motor Corps at Central Park, New York. “No, I’ll be honest,” she added laughingly, in answer to the look of amazed inquiry on the faces of her companions, “and ’fess’ that I didn’t have the pleasure of drilling in public, for I’m a raw recruit as yet. We recruits go through our manual of arms at one of the New York armories, drilled by a regular army sergeant. Oh, I’ve been in training some time, for you know I took out my chauffeur’s and mechanician’s State licenses last winter. LENA HALSEY:Author of “Blue Robin, the Girl Pioneer”and “America’s Daughter”

Charlie the Pearl—con man, gambler, and ever absent father—is about to catch the dream that he’s chased his entire life—the secret of good luck. But it’s a secret that could cost Charlie the only thing in the world that he loves more than a winning streak—his daughter.

Aurora Award Finalist Humans are just beginning to explore the outer reaches of our solar system when the wormships are discovered outside the orbit of Pluto. Abandoned? Lost? Or left to be found? Found with charted wormholes in Sol System. Found with incredibly ancient yet perfectly functioning Wormer technology. Five years later, humanity is exploring the stars. But right now, Cassie Morant, ship geologist on the Johannes Kepler wormship, wishes that she was back on Earth in her tiny apartment, lost in one of her beloved jigsaw puzzles. Because that perfect Wormer technology is perfect no more. Something has gone wrong. The Kepler’s orbit is decaying, and Cassie has less than twenty-four hours to solve a planet-sized, eons-old puzzle—or the entire crew will die. Cassie’s good at puzzles, but this one has a piece missing. A big piece. Now Cassie has one last chance to save the ship and the man she loves. But time’s running out… "...a fun romp." —Publishers Weekly "...reawakened the child in me who loved to watch Star Trek characters solve the problems of mysterious races on faraway worlds. It's a nicely done puzzle-story, with a clever solution..." —Nancy Fulda "A clever story whose protagonist is as reliant on her innate curiosity and fondness for puzzles as her intelligence. It provides added depth that one can miss in short fiction." —Tangent Online "…reads very, very well in the traditional derring-do of sf adventures … shows the scope of the author's range and another favorite of mine in Chimerascope (A+)" —Fantasy Book Critic "A darkly amusing look at what can go wrong when humans use alien technology they don't fully understand." —infinityplus "Fast-paced...with a clever puzzle." —Tangent Online

Think of human emotion as a geography, with peaks of pleasure and valleys of pain. Imagine a drug that flips the valleys and makes them peaks, too. You react now to an event based not on the pleasure or pain that it brings, but solely on the intensity of the emotion created. Pain brings pleasure, grief gives joy, horror renders ecstasy. Now give this drug to a soldier. Tell them to kill. Not in the historically acceptable murder of war, but in a systematic corporate strategy—of xenocide. They will kill. And they will revel in it. Welcome to the world of Scream. Jason Trelayne is a Screamer, a soldier forced to take part in the enslavement or death of entire races. But Trelayne falls in love with Philomela, a Scream Angel, an alien who produces the addictive drug. Does he love her for her beauty, for the drug she gives him, from guilt for what he has done to her people? And does she love truly him as she swears? Or is he simply her only hope for freedom, for her and her entire race? Forced to choose between freedom and love, what will they do? "…a multi-layered tale about a circus that features a pair of ‘angels’ who have the ability to produce a drug that produces pleasure based on intensity of emotion. Factor in that the owner of the circus is in love with one of the angels as well as addicted to the drug she produces, and the story quickly becomes one that holds the reader’s attention until the very end." —SpecFicWorld "Smith describes a disturbingly plausible military application for the narcotic … The basic concept behind the drug strikes me as one of those rare ideas that seems at once so perfect and so natural that someone must have come up with it before; but if someone has, I haven't heard about it, and regardless Smith exploits the potential of the idea extraordinarily well here." —Strange Horizons "…remind[ed] me of the reasons I love the author’s writing: his characterisation, attention to detail and recurring themes of love, faith and redemption." —SF Crowsnest Reviews "A visceral work […] a true pearl of the fantastic literature. Breath-taking." —Café de Ontem "The story has so many layers that I'm still sorting them out. And like an onion, I'm not sure if I'll ever find the final layer." —Tangent Online "A dark and powerful story with a first line that sets the tone for what is to come: 'They stopped beating Trelayne when they saw that he enjoyed it.' (A++)" —Fantasy Book Critic "Scream Angel was especially horrifying and compelling, and I wound up re-reading it again after I had finished the book." —Fluidity of Time

Aurora Award Finalist.? When the Shogun’s soldiers burn his village and kill his parents, young Asai is rescued by a strange red hawk and led to a fabled temple. Here, he trains under Ikada, the Warrior of the Red Bird and seeker of the Hidden Light. Asai will be the last Warrior, and unless he can succeed where all other Warriors have failed—to discover the Hidden Light—then his people will suffer a thousand years of misery. But when Sawako, a beautiful young woman, challenges him, Asai must choose between his heart, his people, and his destiny. "I loved this tale. ... It has the feel of a myth or legend about a boy who finds that his destiny is closely entwined with the destiny of a people. But rather than repeat a tale we’ve all read before, the author has written something subtly new. … Honestly, I could have read it forever. The ending was that perfect combination of sadness and hope." —SF Crowsnest Review "A spellbinding piece of writing set in a Japan-that-never-was that is both well-plotted and elegantly paced" —Strange Horizons "A superbly told, involving, and brilliantly paced short story, complete with an ending made more tragic by its inevitability... Worth the price of the issue." —Tangent Online "A mini-epic about a young boy named Asai and the phoenix that saves him from death while his village is being raided... If you love Japanese and Samurai stories, this one will give you goose bumps." —Tangent Online "Powerful, moving and not quite predictable (A+)" —Fantasy Book Critic "A wonderfully recounted story, with an excellent pace and a perfect ending." —Bibliopolis
