"From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Ruins comes a lively, smart, and deliciously funny new novel in the vein of True Grit, about a reclusive journalist who is suddenly thrown into a wild, suspenseful journey to rescue his kidnapped grandchildren"--

"A warm, funny, loving novel. . . . It's an American original."—Ann Patchett,&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;Tom Lake"So Far Gone&nbsp;is a marvel.”—Tom Perrotta,&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;The LeftoversFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Ruins—and in the propulsive spirit of Charles Portis’ True Grit—comes a hilarious, empathetic, and brilliantly provocative adventure through life in modern America, about a reclusive journalist forced back into the world to rescue his kidnapped grandchildren.Rhys Kinnick has gone off the grid. At Thanksgiving a few years back, a fed-up Rhys punched his conspiracy-theorist son-in-law in the mouth, chucked his smartphone out a car window and fled for a cabin in the woods, with no one around except a pack of hungry raccoons.Now Kinnick’s old life is about to land right back on his crumbling doorstep. Can this failed husband and father, a man with no internet and a car that barely runs, reemerge into a broken world to track down his missing daughter and save his sweet, precocious grandchildren from the members of a dangerous militia?With the help of his caustic ex-girlfriend, a bipolar retired detective, and his only friend (who happens to be furious with him), Kinnick heads off on a wild journey through cultural lunacy and the rubble of a life he thought he’d left behind. So Far Gone is a rollicking, razor-sharp, and moving road trip through a fractured nation, from a writer who has been called “a genius of the modern American moment” (Philadelphia Inquirer).

You Are Mine

Una deleitable y conmovedora novela del autor del bestseller internacional Un hombre llamado Ove.Elsa tiene siete años y es diferente. Su abuela tiene 77 y está loca, loca del tipo que, de pie, desde su balcón, dispara una pistola de bolas de pintura a los hombres que quieren hablar de Jesús. También es la mejor y única amiga de Elsa. Por la noche, Elsa se refugia en las historias de su abuela, en Land-of-Almost-Awake y en Kingdom of Miamas, donde todos son diferentes y nadie necesita ser normal. Cuando la abuela de Elsa muere y deja una serie de cartas pidiendo disculpas a las personas a las que ha perjudicado, comienza la mayor aventura de Elsa. Las instrucciones de su abuela la llevan a un edificio de apartamentos lleno de borrachos, monstruos, perros de ataque y viejas brujas ordinarias, pero también a la verdad sobre los cuentos de hadas y los reinos y una abuela como ninguna otra.&nbsp;Mi abuela me pidió que te dijera que lo siente&nbsp;se cuenta con la misma precisión cómica y corazón palpitante que la novela debut de Fredrik Backman,&nbsp;Un hombre llamado Ove. Es una historia sobre la vida y la muerte y una oda a uno de los derechos humanos más importantes: el derecho a ser diferente.A charming and warmhearted novel by the author of the international best-seller&nbsp;A Man Called Ove.Elsa is seven years old and different. Her grandmother is 77 years old and crazy, standing-on-the-balcony-firing-paintball-guns-at-men-who-want-to-talk-about-Jesus crazy. She is also Elsa's best and only friend. At night Elsa takes refuge in her grandmother's stories, in the Land of Almost-Awake and the Kingdom of Miamas, where everybody is different and nobody needs to be normal. When Elsa's grandmother dies and leaves behind a series of letters apologizing to people she has wronged, Elsa's greatest adventure begins. Her grandmother's letters lead her to an apartment building full of drunks, monsters, attack dogs, and totally ordinary old crones but also to the truth about fairy tales and kingdoms and a grandmother like no other.My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry&nbsp;is told with the same comic accuracy and beating heart as Fredrik Backman's internationally best-selling debut novel,&nbsp;A Man Called Ove. It is a story about life and death and an ode to one of the most important human rights: the right to be different.

My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry \ (Spanish edition)

"[A] rich and lyrical tale of desperation and redemption . . . Throughout, Sainz Borgo applies stark poetry to the terrifying setting, where 'moans and cries attributed to ghosts sometimes masked executions and beatings.' It's a stunner." -Publishers Weekly (starred review)"[A] deeply felt meditation on migration, mourning and the simultaneous entanglement and estrangement of the living and the dead" -Los Angeles TimesWinner of the 2023 Jan Michalski Prize, a searing novel of loss and resilience that illuminates the often-overlooked human dimension of the migrant crisis, re-imagining the border as a dreamlike purgatory bridging life and death. In an unnamed Latin American country, a mysterious plague quickly spreads, erasing the memory of anyone infected. Angustias Romero flees with her family, but their flight is tragically cut short when she loses both her children. Consumed by grief, she finds herself within the hallucinatory expanse of Mezquite--a town corrupted by greed and populated by storytellers, refugees, and violent, predatory gangs. Here, Angustias is finally able to lay her children to rest at the Third Country, a cemetery run by the larger-than-life Visitación Salazar and a refuge beyond suffering and fear. While Visitación remains defiant in her mission to care for the dead, the cemetery she oversees is the focal point of a bitter land dispute with Alcides Abundio, the most feared landowner of the border. Caught in this power struggle, Angustias and Visitación-friends and sometimes rivals- stand their ground on a frontier where the law is dictated by violence; a surreal territory whose very nature blurs the boundaries between life and death. Exploring what we are capable of and how far we will go when we have nothing to lose, No Place to Bury the Dead confirms Karina Sainz Borgo's importance amongst the voices of modern Latin American literature, merging thriller, western, and classic tragedy in an unforgettable and urgent novel that won the 2023 Jan Michalski Prize. Translated from the Spanish by Elizabeth Bryer
