Beartown Series

Regresa a la unida y resiliente comunidad de Beartown con este "apasionante libro" (Woman's World) sobre primeros amores, segundas oportunidades y últimos adioses. Del autor de Gente ansiosa y Un hombre llamado Ove, bestsellers del New York Times.En el transcurso de dos semanas, todo cambiará en Beartown.Han pasado dos años desde aquellos sucesos que nadie quiere recordar. Todos han intentado seguir adelante, pero hay algo en este lugar que lo impide. La destrucción causada por una feroz tormenta de finales de verano reaviva la vieja rivalidad entre Beartown y el pueblo vecino de Hed, una rivalidad que siempre se ha librado a través de sus equipos de hockey sobre hielo.Maya Andersson y Benji Ovich, dos jóvenes que se marcharon de Beartown en busca de una vida mejor, vuelven a casa y se reencuentran con sus mejores amigos de la infancia. En el pueblo se respira una nueva sensación de optimismo y determinación, encarnada en la nueva e impresionante pista de hielo que se ha construido junto al lago.Los padres de Maya, por su parte, se ven envueltos en una investigación sobre las turbias finanzas del club de hockey; y Amat —quien fuera la estrella del equipo de Beartown— ha perdido el rumbo tras una lesión y un intento fallido de entrar en la NHL. Las tensiones latentes entre los dos pueblos se convierten en intimidación y violencia. Mientras tanto, un chico de catorce años se aleja cada vez más de esta comunidad obsesionada con el hockey y está decidido a vengarse de las personas a las que considera responsables de la muerte de su querida hermana. Tiene un arma y un plan que dejará a Beartwon con una pérdida que es casi más de lo que puede soportar.&nbsp;-----Return&nbsp;to the close-knit, resilient community of Beartown with this “engrossing page-turner” (Woman’s World) about first loves, second chances, and last goodbyes—from the #1&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;Anxious People&nbsp;and&nbsp;A Man Called Ove. Over the course of two weeks, everything in Beartown will change. Two years have passed since the events that no one wants to think about. Everyone has tried to move on, but there’s something about this place that prevents it. The destruction caused by a ferocious late-summer storm reignites the old rivalry between Beartown and the neighboring town of Hed, a rivalry which has always been fought through their ice hockey teams. Maya Andersson and Benji Ovich, two young people who left in search of a better life, come home and joyfully reunite with their closest childhood friends. There is a new sense of optimism and purpose in the town, embodied in the impressive new ice rink that has been built down by the lake. Maya’s parents, meanwhile, are caught up in an investigation of the hockey club’s murky finances, and Amat—once the star of the Beartown team—has lost his way after an injury and a failed attempt to get drafted into the NHL. Simmering tensions between the two towns turn into acts of intimidation and then violence. All the while, a fourteen-year-old boy grows increasingly alienated from this hockey-obsessed community and is determined to take revenge on the people he holds responsible for his beloved sister’s death.&nbsp;

Winners, The \ Los ganadores (Spanish edition)

"The Californians is an absolute pleasure from end to end, a thrilling, century-spanning, wholly American tale of art and money, family and land, treasure and time....A brilliant read for fans of Anthony Doerr, Dana Spiotta, and Don DeLillo.” -- Matt Bell, author of AppleseedFor fans of&nbsp;Trust&nbsp;and&nbsp;North Woods,&nbsp;a&nbsp;daring novel that spans 100 years of American history, from the early days of cinema to the rise of NFTs, about parents and children, the drive to create even in times of crisis, and the inheritance of grand western dreams.It’s 2024, and Tobey Harlan—college dropout, temporary waiter, recently dumped—steals&nbsp;from the wall of his father’s house&nbsp;three paintings by the venerated and controversial artist Di Stiegl.&nbsp;Tobey’s just lost everything he owns to a Northern California wildfire, and if he can sell the paintings (albeit in a shady way to a notorious tech bro) he can start life anew in a place no one will ever find him, perhaps even Oregon.A hundred years before, Klaus Aaronsohn—German-Jewish immigrant, resident of the Lower East Side—inveigles his way into a film studio in Astoria, Queens. In love with silent cinema, Klaus will restyle himself Klaus von Stiegl, a mysterious aristocratic German film director. In true Hollywood fashion, he will court fame, fortune, romance, and betrayal, and end his career directing Brackett: a radical, notorious 60s-era detective show.Weaving between Tobey and Klaus is the story of Diane “Di” Stiegl: Klaus’s granddaughter, raised in Palm Springs, who claws out a career as an artist in gritty 1980s NYC. As America yields the presidency to a Hollywood cowboy, as Diane’s grifter father and free-spirited mother circle in and out of her life, Diane will reflect America’s most urgent and hypocritical years back to itself, uneasily finding critical adoration as well as great fame and wealth.A dazzling novel&nbsp;for readers of&nbsp;Beautiful Ruins&nbsp;by Jess Walter and&nbsp;The Candy House&nbsp;by Jennifer Egan,&nbsp;The&nbsp;Californians&nbsp;is an ambitious and sweeping journey across a century.&nbsp;&nbsp;Nuanced and textured, gloriously funny, a critical portrait of the collective American consciousness that has brought us to today, it showcases Brian Castleberry as an inventive, stylish storyteller and a sharp observer of the human condition.

The Californians

'Una novela audaz, impredecible y terriblemente divertida de una escritora tan singular que es difícil de comparar con alguien más… en definitiva, brillante'. —Kevin WilsonUna historia atrevida, muy divertida y conmovedora sobre los intentos de una joven por navegar en la vida adulta, la maternidad y su estrecha cuenta bancaria en un mudo cada vez más virtual. De la autora de The Knockout Queen, finalista del premio PEN/Faulkner y aclamada por la crítica. Hija de una camarera de Hooters y de un exluchador profesional, Margo Millet siempre supo que tendría que arreglárselas sola. Así que se matricula en la universidad local, aunque no puede imaginarse cómo se ganará la vida. Aún está tratando de entender las cosas y nunca planeó tener una aventura con su profesor de inglés —una aventura breve, pero no lo suficiente como para evitar quedar embarazada—. A pesar de los consejos de todo el mundo, decide quedarse con el bebé, sobre todo por ingenuidad y por el deseo de algo más grande.Ahora, a los veinte años, Margo está sola con un bebé, desempleada y a punto de ser desalojada. Necesita una entrada de dinero rápida. Cuando su ausente padre, Jinx, se planta en su puerta y le pide dejarlo mudarse con ella, Margo accede a cambio de ayuda con el cuidado del bebé. Entonces, Margo comienza a tramar un plan: abrirá un OnlyFans como experimento, y pronto se dará cuenta de que está adoptando algunos de los consejos de Jinx del mundo de la lucha libre, como la forma de crear un personaje convincente y hacer que tu público se enamore de ti. Antes de percatarse, Margo se ha convertido en un éxito arrollador. ¿Podría ser esta la respuesta a todos los problemas de Margo o la fama en internet viene acompañada de un precio demasiado alto?Absolutamente divertida y llena de un ingenio cortante, Margo’s Got Money Troubles es un relato tierno protagonizado por una joven heroína que lucha para sacarle dinero y poder a mundo que tiene poco interés en dárselo. -----“An audacious, wildly funny, completely unpredictable novel by a writer so singular that it’s hard to compare her to anyone else . . . absolutely brilliant.” —Kevin WilsonA bold, laugh-out-loud funny, and heartwarming story about one young woman’s attempt to navigate adulthood, new motherhood, and her meager bank account in our increasingly online world—from the PEN/Faulkner finalist and critically acclaimed author of&nbsp;The Knockout Queen.As the child of a Hooters waitress and an ex-pro wrestler, Margo Millet's always known she’d have to make it on her own. So she enrolls at her local junior college, even though she can’t imagine how she’ll ever make a living. She’s still figuring things out and never planned to have an affair with her English professor—and while the affair is brief, it isn’t brief enough to keep her from getting pregnant. Despite everyone’s advice, she decides to keep the baby, mostly out of naiveté and a yearning for something bigger.Now, at twenty, Margo is alone with an infant, unemployed, and on the verge of eviction. She needs a cash infusion—fast. When her estranged father, Jinx, shows up on her doorstep and asks to move in with her, she agrees in exchange for help with childcare. Then Margo begins to form a plan: she’ll start an OnlyFans as an experiment, and soon finds herself adapting some of Jinx’s advice from the world of wrestling. Like how to craft a compelling character and make your audience fall in love with you. Before she knows it, she’s turned it into a runaway success.

Idol, Burning

Ghost Girl, Banana

From Lynn Steger Strong, critically acclaimed author of&nbsp;Flight,&nbsp;a sophisticated and layered novel about sisters, betrayal, love, and climate change, for readers of&nbsp;The Dutch House&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Most Fun We Ever Had."With surgical precision, Lynn Steger Strong dissects and then elegantly reconstructs an American family on the brink: of falling apart, of finding themselves, of saying all the things left unsaid. From&nbsp;the collateral damage inevitably caused by artists, to the notion that perhaps we are who we always were, Strong’s clear and confident voice and prose makes the unvarnished truths in this book sting. But that same quality makes the moments of profound tenderness and humanity linger. The Float Test—and the Floridian world of this clan—will stay with me for a long time to come."— Xochitl Gonzalez, New York Times bestselling author of Anita de Monte Laughs Last"What I loved most about The Float Test is the sense of place, and how the sticky, dense heat of Florida, the relentless sun, the flat roads ending at the ocean, is woven into the Kenner family’s DNA. The adult children of the family—all at crisis points in their own lives—gather on the hot ground of their childhood following their mother’s death, where they try to untangle decades of betrayals and sorrow, and reclaim their sense of home."— Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of Hello BeautifulThe Kenner siblings are at odds. Jenn is a harried mom struggling under the weight of family obligations. Fred is a novelist who can’t write, maybe because she’s lost faith in storytelling itself. Jude is a recovering corporate lawyer with her own story to tell, and a grudge against her former favorite sister, Fred. George, the baby, is estranged from his wife and harboring both a secret about his former employer and an ill-advised crush on one of his sisters’ friends. Gathered after a major loss, each sibling needs the others more than ever—if only they could trust each other.A family story is, of course, only as honest as the person telling it. This family story in particular is fraught with secrets about kids and sex and jobs and why the Kenner matriarch had a gun in her underwear drawer. The biggest secret of all though is the secret of what happened between Jude and Fred to create such a rift between the two once-close middle sisters. Over the course of a sweltering Florida summer, the Kenner siblings will revisit what it means to be a family and, if they are smart and kind and lucky, come out on the other side better for having each other.A rich exploration of family, ambition, secrets, and love, The Float Test is an elegant and gripping testament to the power that family has to both nurture and destroy us from a critically acclaimed writer working at the top of her craft.
