Will Self is one of the most inimitable contemporary writers in the English language. In this brilliantly conceived new novel Self turns his forensic eye and technicolor imagination to the troubled life of his mother, Elaine. Standing by the mailbox outside 1100 Hemlock Street in Ithaca, New York, Elaine thinks of her husband and child inside her house and wonders: is this . . . it? As she begins to push back against the strictures of her life in 1950s America, she undertakes a disastrous affair that places her marriage to an Ivy League academic and former Communist Party member in peril.

Wie kann es sein, dass wir in jeder kurzen Pause, die uns der Tag bietet, sofort auf unser Handy schauen und uns ablenken? Sind wir vielleicht einfach zu faul zum Nichtstun geworden? Horst Evers geht dieser Frage nach – in kurzen, sehr lustigen Geschichten aus dem Hier und Jetzt. Dort begegnet er Katzen, die seine Pakete entgegennehmen, und Toastern, die unsere Zukunft planen, sowie Nonnen, die ihm die Künstliche Intelligenz erklären. Er erzählt von seiner Zeit als Band-Bassist, seiner Begegnung mit Steven Spielberg und der lautesten Verkehrsberuhigung der Welt.

Centred on three generations of a family of rail workers and a laid-off factory worker staging a high-altitude sit-in, Mater 2-10 vividly depicts the lives of ordinary working Koreans, starting from the Japanese colonial era, continuing through Liberation, and right up to the twenty-first century. It is at once a powerful account that captures a nation's longing for a rail line to reconnect North and South, a magical-realist novel that manages to reflect the lives of modern industrial workers, and a culmination of Hwang's career—a masterpiece thirty years in the making.

Story
Wittgenstein's Mistress is a novel unlike anything David Markson or anyone else has ever written before. It is the story of a woman who is convinced and, astonishingly, will ultimately convince the listener as well that she is the only person left on earth. Presumably she is mad. And yet so appealing is her character, and so witty and seductive her narrative voice, that we will follow her hypnotically as she unloads the intellectual baggage of a lifetime in a series of irreverent meditations on everything and everybody from Brahms to sex to Heidegger to Helen of Troy.

A spellbinding saga about the inhabitants and inheritors of one rural community, by one of Iceland's most beloved novelists. A man comes to awareness in a cold church in the Icelandic countryside, not knowing who he is, why he's there, or how he arrived, with a stranger staring mockingly from a few pews back. Startled by the man's cryptic questions, he leaves—and plunges into a history spanning centuries, a past pressed into his genes that sinks him closer to some knowledge of himself.

Questo è un romanzo fatto di lettere, ma non è un romanzo epistolare come gli altri. Si alternano due voci: da una parte c'è lui, Roberto Vecchioni, che racconta a un fantomatico nonno alcuni degli episodi più significativi della sua vita. Li riporta in presa diretta, proprio mentre gli accadono, a dieci, quindici, trenta, ottant'anni. Infanzia, amicizie, studi, canzoni, dolori, amori. Sconfitte e vittorie. Il nonno, dal canto suo, non gli risponde mai: forse non ce n'è bisogno, forse conosce Roberto fin troppo bene.

"Elegía más comedia es la única manera de expresar cómo vivimos hoy. Y que algo no sea divertido en la vida real no significa que no pueda escribirse sobre ello como si lo fuese", dice un personaje de esta novela. Su narradora es una mujer solitaria que acepta hacerse cargo de un vivaracho loro llamado Eureka a petición de la amiga de una amiga. Del cumplimiento de ese encargo y de su relación con un miembro a la deriva de la Generación Z surgen preguntas que solo pueden resolverse, quizá, indagando en la naturaleza y el propósito de la escritura misma.
