Clubul Mars Room

Clubul Mars Room

AUTOARE TRADUSĂ ÎN PESTE 25 DE ȚĂRI ROMAN CÂȘTIGĂTOR AL PRIX MÉDICIS ETRANGER 2018 TITLU FINALIST LA MAN BOOKER PRIZE ȘI NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD 2018 ,,În sfârșit, un roman adevărat! Cutremurător, plin de compasiune, amuzant.” STEPHEN KING ,,Vezi-ți de treabă și nu spune nimănui numele tău adevărat”. Acestea sunt cele două reguli de aur care se aplică atât în clubul de striptease Mars Room, cât și în închisoarea pentru femei Stanville, California. Romy Hall, 29 de ani, le știe prea bine: tocmai este pe cale să înceapă executarea a două sentințe consecutive pe viață. ,,Continui să exiști indiferent dacă îți propui sau nu să faci asta”, spune Romy și șterge orice urmă de machiaj de pe fața Americii contemporane. Înăuntru pare la fel de dur ca afară, doar că la scară mai mică și în concentrație mai mare: mii de femei se luptă pentru a face rost de lucruri esențiale supraviețuirii, violența este la ordinea zilei, viața instituționalizată abundă în momente de absurd, dar și de umor. Dincolo de satira usturătoare la adresa vieții instituționalizate, Clubul Mars Room se înscrie în seria marilor romane care dinamitează din interior orice rămășiță a visului american. ,,Curajos, empatic, superb scris. Un roman care nu îndulcește realitatea, ci o descrie răbdător, cu toate fațetele ei.” MARGARET ATWOOD ,,Acest roman social extrem de dens confirmă locul lui Rachel Kushner ca una dintre cele mai importante scriitoare americane ale secolului XXI.” ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY RACHEL KUSHNER s-a născut în 1968 în statul Oregon, S.U.A. Pe părinții ei îi descrie ca fiind doi oameni de știință ,,foarte neconvenționali, din generația Beat". A studiat economia politică la Berkeley, apoi literatura, la Columbia University. Primele ei romane, Telex from Cuba (2008) și The Flamethrowers (2013), au fost bestsellere New York Times și finaliste la National Book Award in Fiction. The Mars Room, 2018 (Clubul Mars Room, Editura Vellant, 2019), cel de-al treilea roman al său, este bestseller internațional, romanul anului 2018 pentru New York Times și Time, premiat și nominalizat la un număr impresionant de premii literare. Rachel Kushner a mai publicat povestiri și eseuri în New Yorker, Harper's, The New York Times și The Paris Review. Unul dintre scriitorii care au influențat-o major este Don DeLillo, iar tehnica ei literară se bazează extensiv pe documentare socială. În prezent, trăiește la Los Angeles, împreună cu soțul și fiul ei

A Girl Like Us : A Locked Room Murder Mystery for Fans of Saltburn and Succession

A Girl Like Us : A Locked Room Murder Mystery for Fans of Saltburn and Succession

Succession meets Saltburn in a crackling locked room murder mystery of inconceivable wealth, unchecked power, and the secrets poised to bring a powerful family down. It's 2004 and former reality TV star and party girl Maya Miller has just married the most eligible bachelor on the planet: Colin Sterling, of the globally famous Sterling family, whose history of aristocratic titles and land holdings rival a British royal and whose media empire is comparable to the Murdochs. To some, Maya represents the American dream. To others, a gold digger. But when Colin's cousin Arianna, the heiress to the family's immense fortune, is found murdered, Maya is thrust into the spotlight: first as she is revealed to be the next heiress to the fortune, and then as the prime suspect. Swiftly, the entire Sterling family goes into lockdown at Silver House, the family's ancestral estate in the English countryside. They're told it's for their own safety – but Maya becomes convinced that it's not to keep threats out, but to keep secrets in. Now, she has no choice but to find and expose the truth hidden within the Sterling family, and why Arianna, a girl she had never met, chose her to take her place. But Maya has secrets of her own. And she knows that in order to survive the Sterlings, she'll have to beat them at their own game. They say to keep your friends close and your enemies closer. But when your enemies are the Sterlings, that old adage may just prove deadly. TropesLocked Room MysterySuspense ThrillerMurder MysteryFamily SecretsInheritance Wa

The Man in Room Seven

The Man in Room Seven

'Nordin wields a parent's worst fear like a scalpel while delivering twist after twist.' Steve Frech 'A truly gripping and at times heart-wrenching thriller of a woman searching for her lost son that brilliantly weaves tv psychics and second sight into the utterly brutal, claustrophobic, and transient world of a no-questions-asked motel.' T. Orr Munro 'A tense, ripping, colourful story about the power of motherhood, the ripple effects of trauma, and the lengths to which people will go for those they love. This book is a nail-biter!' Matthew Sullivan Six years ago, Tweety came home from work to find her husband Dodge had left, taking their child with him. Utterly broken, Tweety vows that she will do anything to get her baby back.

This time things will be different. This time his ex-wife is a few steps ahead of him. Tweety takes a job at the front desk. Between the unmentionables she finds in the rooms and the incessant catcalling, it’s the worst job in the world.

She has a goal and she’ll stop at nothing to get her son back. Catch Dodge. Make him pay for what he did to her. Live happily ever after.

The Briar Club

The Briar Club

The New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye and The Rose Code returns with a haunting and powerful story of female friendships and secrets in a Washington, DC, boardinghouse during the McCarthy era. Washington, D.C., 1950 Everyone keeps to themselves at Briarwood House, an all-female boarding house in the heart of the US capital, where secrets hide behind respectable facades. But when the mysterious Grace March moves into the attic room, she draws her oddball collection of neighbours – a poised English beauty, a policeman’s daughter, a frustrated female baseball star, and a rabidly pro-McCarthy typist – into an unlikely friendship. Grace’s weekly attic-room dinner parties and window-brewed sun tea become a healing balm on all their troubled lives, but she hides a terrible secret of her own. And when a shocking act of violence tears the house apart, the Briar Club must decide once and for all: who is the true enemy in their midst? Capturing the paranoia of the McCarthy era and evoking the changing roles for women in postwar America, The Briar Club is an intimate and thrilling novel of secrets and loyalty put to the test. 'This powerful, unforgettable historical romance is for fans of Mary Anna Evans's Justine Byrne series and stories with strong women characters' Starred Library Journal Review 'Compulsively readable, The Briar Club will find eager readers in those who love woman-led historical fiction with rich, appealing characters' Starred Booklist Review 'Blending suspense with themes of class struggle and female empowerment, this is a thrilling addition to Quinn's repertoire’ Glamour Magazin
