Juan José-Saer

La Grande

<p>Saer’s final novel, La Grande, is the grand culmination of his life’s work, bringing together themes and characters explored throughout his career, yet presenting them in a way that is beautifully unique, and a wonderful entry-point to his literary world.</p><p>Moving between past and present, La Grande centers around two related stories: that of Gutiérrez, his sudden departure from Argentina 30 years before, and his equally mysterious return; and that of “precisionism,” a literary movement founded by a rather dangerous fraud. Dozens of characters populate these storylines, incluind Nula, the wine salesman, ladies’ man, and part-time philosopher, Lucía, the woman he’s lusted after for years, and Tomatis, a journalist whoM Saer fans have encountered many times before.</p><p>Written in Saer’s trademark style, this lyrically gorgeous book — which touches on politics, artistic beliefs, illicit love affairs, and everything else that makes up life — ends with one of the greatest lines in all of literature: “With the rain came the fall, and with the fall, the time of the wine.”</p><

Serious Men

<p>Ayyan Mani, one of the thousands of (untouchable caste) men trapped in Mumbai’s slums, works in the Institute of Theory and Research as the lowly assistant to the director, a brilliant self-assured astronomer. Ever wily and ambitious, Ayyan weaves two plots, one involving his knowledge of an illicit romance between his married boss and the institute’s first female researcher, and another concerning his young son and his soap-opera-addicted wife. Ayyan quickly finds his deceptions growing intertwined, even as the Brahmin scientists wage war over the question of aliens in outer space. In his debut novel, Manu Joseph expertly picks apart the dynamics of this complex world, offering humorous takes on proselytizing nuns and chronicling the vanquished director serving as guru to his former colleagues. This is at once a moving portrait of love and its strange workings and a hilarious portrayal of men’s runaway egos and ambitions.</p><

The Illicit Happiness of Other People

Ousep Chacko, journalist and failed novelist, prides himself on being "the last of the real men." This includes waking neighbors upon returning late from the pub. His wife Mariamma stretches their money, raises their two boys, and, in her spare time, gleefully fantasizes about Ousep dying. One day, their seemingly happy seventeen-year-old son Unni-an obsessed comic-book artist-falls from the balcony, leaving them to wonder whether it was an accident. Three years later, Ousep receives a package that sends him searching for the answer, hounding his son's former friends, attending a cartoonists' meeting, and even accosting a famous neurosurgeon. Meanwhile, younger son Thoma, missing his brother, falls head over heels for the much older girl who befriended them both. Haughty and beautiful, she has her own secrets. The Illicit Happiness of Other People-a smart, wry, and poignant novel-teases you with its mystery, philosophy, and unlikely love story.<

Papi

Una niña enfervorizada espera a su padre, un mafioso dominicano al que idolatra y que siempre llega sin avisar, como los monstruos en las películas de terror. Papi aparece, desaparece y reaparece, cargado de dólares y un sinfín de coches, novias y regalos. Encarna, como ha señalado el crítico Juan Duchesne Winter, al «neomacho global» y triunfador de los trópicos, que provoca alucinaciones en todos los que lo rodean: «El problema es que papi, como el Mesías, siempre aparece pero nunca llega. Así se cumple la falla íntima de una pasión dominicana, la brecha de toda pasión de la espera, narrada en una prosa que inocula el ritmo del perico ripiao en el pulso tecno, que inyecta la bachata en la sonata».<

Welcome to Braggsville

<p>From the PEN/Faulkner finalist and critically acclaimed author of comes a dark and socially provocative Southern-fried comedy about four UC Berkeley students who stage a dramatic protest during a Civil War reenactment — a fierce, funny, tragic work from a bold new writer</p><p>Born and raised in the heart of old Dixie, D'aron Davenport finds himself in unfamiliar territory his freshman year at UC Berkeley. Two thousand miles and a world away from his childhood, he is a small-town fish floundering in the depths of a large hyperliberal pond. Caught between the prosaic values of his rural hometown and the intellectualized multicultural cosmopolitanism of "Berzerkeley," the nineteen-year-old white kid is uncertain about his place, until one disastrous party brings him three idiosyncratic best friends: Louis, a "kung fu comedian" from California; Candice, an earnest do-gooder from Iowa claiming Native roots; and Charlie, an introspective inner-city black teen from Chicago. They dub themselves the "4 Little Indians."</p><p>But everything changes in the group's alternative history class, when D'aron lets slip that his hometown hosts an annual Civil War reenactment, recently rebranded "Patriot Days." His announcement is met with righteous indignation and inspires Candice to suggest a "performative intervention" to protest the reenactment. Armed with youthful self-importance, makeshift slave costumes, righteous zeal, and their own misguided ideas about the South, the 4 Little Indians descend on Braggsville. Their journey through backwoods churches, backroom politics, Waffle Houses, and drunken family barbecues is uproarious at first but has devastating consequences.</p><p>With the keen wit of and the deft argot of , T. Geronimo Johnson has written an astonishing, razor-sharp satire. Using a panoply of styles and tones, from tragicomic to Southern Gothic, he skewers issues of class, race, intellectual and political chauvinism, Obamaism, social media, and much more.</p><p>A literary coming-of-age novel for a new generation, written with tremendous social insight and a unique, generous heart, reminds us of the promise and perils of youthful exuberance, while painting an indelible portrait of contemporary America.</p><

Odhaluje poměry v říši faraónů a neudržitelnost tohoto společenského řádu, vybudovaného na nelidském zotročování chudiny. Seznamuje nás s hrdinným bojem otroků za svobodu, zasvěceně popisuje svět starověku a starou egyptskou kulturu a líčí četné příhody a dobrodružství, které otroci prožijí na svém útěku v afrických pralesích.</p><p>I když se děj odehrává v době velmi dávné, má pro současného čtenáře aktuální význam.

Děj knihy má bystrý spád a svou svěžestí a bezprostředností našeho čtenáře jistě zaujme, poučí a pobaví.</p><
