Serle R: Once and Again

Once and Again

First Time I Saw Him

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER. Finalist for the 2026 Barnes &amp; Noble Discover Prize. A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice. "Extremely smart, impossibly funny, and just plain fun to read-this book hums with a brilliant, lunatic energy all its own. I finished it in a day." -Caro Claire Burke, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Yesteryear "If the Royal Tenenbaums were middle-class and likable, they'd be this madcap family." -The New York Times Book Review "Madeline Cash is a voice like no other." -Lena Dunham, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Famesick Rippling with humor, warmth, and style, Lost Lambs is a new vision of the charms and pitfalls of family dysfunction. The Flynn family is coming undone. Catherine and Bud's open marriage has reached its breaking point as their daughters spiral in their own chaotic orbits: Abigail, the eldest, is dating a man in his twenties nicknamed War Crime Wes; Louise, the middle child, maintains a secret correspondence with an online terrorist; the brilliant youngest, Harper, is being sent to wilderness reform camp due to her insistence that someone-or something-is monitoring the town's citizens. Casting a shadow across their lives, and their small coastal town, is Paul Alabaster, a billionaire shipping magnate. Rumors of corruption circulate, but no one dares dig too deep. No one except Harper, whose obsession with a mysterious shipping container exposes a criminal conspiracy that unwittingly endangers her family-a crisis that just may bring them closer together. Irreverent and addictive, pinging between the voices of the Flynns and the characters around them, Madeline Cash's Lost Lambs is a debut novel of quick-witted observation and surprising tenderness. In it, Cash has crafted a family saga for the twenty-first century, all held together with crazy glue.

A Novel

Lost Lambs

National Bestseller * Dazed Best Book of the Year Spanning twenty years and one life-altering summer in Croatia, Slanting Towards the Sea is at once an unforgettable love story and a powerful exploration of what it means to come of age in a country younger than oneself. Ivona divorced the love of her life, Vlaho, a decade ago. They met as students at the turn of the millennium, when newly democratic Croatia was alive with hope and promise. But the challenges of living in a burgeoning country extinguished Ivona’s dreams one after another—and a devastating secret forced her to set him free. Now Vlaho is remarried and a proud father of two, while Ivona’s life has taken a downward turn. In her thirties, she has returned to her childhood home to care for her ailing father. Bewildered by life’s disappointments, she finds solace in reconnecting with Vlaho and is welcomed into his family by his spirited wife, Marina. But when a new man enters Ivona’s life, the carefully cultivated dynamic between the three is disrupted, forcing a reckoning for all involved. Set against the mesmerizing Croatian coastline, Slanting Towards the Sea is a cinematic, emotionally searing debut about the fragile nature of potential and the transcendence of love.

Slanting Towards the Sea

From the acclaimed author of Number One Chinese Restaurant comes an affecting novel about an unforgettable group of friends trying to make their way in the world without losing themselves, or one another. Diana, Justin, Errol, and Vivian were always told that success is guaranteed by following a simple checklist. They worked hard, got A's, and attended a good university-only to graduate into the Great Recession of 2008. Now, despite their newly minted degrees, they're unemployed and stuck again under their parents' roofs in a hypercompetitive Chinese American community. So when Grace-once the neighborhood golden child, now a Harvard Law School dropout-asks to make a documentary about the crew, they agree. It's not like her little movie will ever see the light of day. But then the video, Bad Asians, goes viral on an up-and-coming media platform (YouTube, anyone?). Suddenly, millions of people know them as cruel caricatures, each full of pent-up frustrations with the others. And after a desperate attempt at spin control further derails their plans for the lives they'd always imagined, the friends must face harsh truths about themselves and coming of age in the new millennium. Lillian Li's novel wryly captures a generation shaped by the rise of the internet and the end of the American dream. An epic tale of friendship and family, Bad Asians asks, Can the same people who made you who you are end up keeping you from who you're meant to be?

He was never meant to be anything more than a memory. But now he's back... and more magnetic than ever. Three years after a secret weekend in the Swiss Alps, Alora Sorenson thought she'd completely moved on from the mysterious man who turned her world upside down. That is until Edward Prescott walks back into her life: richer, more powerful, and even harder to resist. As the billionaire owner of the world's largest casino empire, Edward is the definition of untouchable. He's a dark, commanding force in a world of high society, luxury yachts, and ruthless enemies. Alora prefers a serene and simple life, surrounded by antiques and vintage fashion. She doesn't belong in his world, and yet... she's never stopped wanting him. But behind his intoxicating charm lie hidden dangers, and in the shadows of the Riviera, will the past reemerge and destroy everything? Secrets brought them together. But will they also tear them apart?

Dough Guthrie betreibt eine Website namens Professor Romance, die als Idee aus einer Laune heraus auf einem Barhocker in Hollywood entstand. Nun ist Dough trocken und hat seine Dämonen besiegt. Er leitet ein erfolgreiches Unternehmen, das denen, die verzweifelt Frauen kennenlernen wollen, kein langes Rumgetue verspricht. Als Ghostwriter dahinter verdient Lance Bertovich seine Brötchen und berät zahlende Kunden wie z.B. Norman Bright, der als unauffälliger Angestellter eines biomedizinischen Unternehmens sein Dasein fristet und versucht, mit Hilfe des Professors die Zuneigung einer attraktiven Kollegin, Cynthia Collingsworth, zu gewinnen. Mit tödlichen Folgen, als der Fake durchschaut wird ...
Dear Professor Romance erinnert an den Klassiker der Beziehungsberatung, an Miss Lonelyhearts von Nathanael West. SaFrankos Roman beschwört dessen Zynismus und ist so etwas wie dessen Widerhall im 21. Jahrhundert.

Dear Professor Romance

One of The New York Times' 100 Best Books of the 21st Century. International bestseller. A Manual for Cleaning Women compiles the best work of the legendary short-story writer Lucia Berlin. One of The New York Times' 100 Best Books of the Twenty-First Century and a classic of short fiction, Lucia Berlin's A Manual for Cleaning Women was a global sensation upon its publication in 2015, eleven years after its author's death. Largely unheralded throughout her peripatetic life, Berlin was a fiction writer of staggering, singular genius. With the grit of Raymond Carver, the humor of Grace Paley, and a blend of wit and melancholy all her own, Berlin crafted miracles from the everyday, uncovering moments of grace in the Laundromats and halfway houses of the American Southwest, in the homes of the Bay Area upper class, among switchboard operators and struggling mothers, hitchhikers and bad Christians. Written over the course of thirty years, the forty-three stories in A Manual for Cleaning Women-collected here in a 10th anniversary edition-are short fiction at its most unforgettable and original, told with unmistakable style by a master of the form.

A Manual for Cleaning Women

Future Saints

In this semi-autobiographical novel, La Maison, Emma Becker recounts her two years working in a Berlin brothel, seeking both income and literary inspiration. With frankness and emotional depth, she explores not only her sexual encounters but the bonds, routines, and quiet strength shared among the women who work there. Blending memoir and fiction, Becker challenges stereotypes about sex work and offers a bold, compassionate look at desire, agency, and female solidarity. In this bold and intimate semi-autobiographical novel, La Maison, Emma Becker transports the reader behind the closed doors of a Berlin brothel, where she worked for two years not only to earn a living, but to immerse herself in a world she wanted to understand – and to write about with unflinching honesty. What emerges is a deeply personal, unsentimental, and often surprising account of life inside the brothel, where Becker explores not just the physical aspects of sex work, but the emotional, psychological, and social complexities that shape it. With frankness and literary insight, she recounts her encounters with clients, her growing self-awareness, and, most poignantly, the friendships and solidarity she finds among the other women who work there. Far from reducing sex work to cliché or voyeurism, Becker gives space to the quiet routines, shared laughter, private pain, and hard-won dignity of a profession often misunderstood and rarely written about from the inside. Part memoir, part sociological study, and wholly literary, La Maison challenges preconceptions about sex, agency, and femininity, offering a provocative and compassionate exploration of what it means to inhabit multiple identities—as worker, writer, woman, and witness.

Inside a Berlin Brothel: A Literary Novel of Sex Work, Identity, and Survival

Maison

Madre e hijo frente a la belleza y la violencia que supone vivir en el Caribe.
Javi vive en una casa de madera encima de la ferretería que atiende su madre. Pero dependiendo del clima, de su abuelo, de los tiroteos o de la furia de su padre, la casa de Javi puede estar arriba o abajo. Arriba su madre se llama Pilar, abajo es una Chica Bombón; arriba su padre es una careta de soldar, abajo un fantasma; arriba Javi le cambia los pañales a su abuelo, abajo espanta pretendientes a su madre; arriba hace nieve frotando bloques de foam, abajo construye una playa con la arena que venden en sacos; arriba Javi es un niño cruel, abajo es un adolescente tierno; arriba es gringo y abajo puertorriqueño.
Escrita con una prosa limpia y exacta, Esto también es una casa es un tour de force entre un hijo y una madre, entre una casa y una ferretería, entre lo que tiene arreglo y lo que nunca lo tendrá, entre el dolor y la ternura, y entre la belleza y la violencia que implica vivir en el Caribe. 'En época de la casita de Bad Bunny, esta novela nos explica las vicisitudes de una clase social, víctima y a la vez protagonista, de los cambios sociales durante los últimos 70 años' (Edgardo Rodríguez).
