Christmas Stories Everyman

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

As a literary subject, Christmas has inspired everything from intimate domestic dramas, to fanciful flights of the imagination, and the full range of its expression is represented in this wonderfully engaging collection. Goblins frolic in the graveyard of an early Dickens tale; a love-struck ghost disrupts a country estate in Elizabeth Bowen's "Green Holly"; devils, witches, Cossacks and peasants cavort in Gogol's "The Night Before Christmas". The plight of the less fortunate haunts Chekhov's "Vanka" and Willa Cather's "The Burglar's Christmas", but takes a boisterously comic turn in Damon Runyon's "Dancing Dan's Christmas" and John Cheever's "Christmas is a Sad Season for the Poor".From Nabokov's intensely moving story of a father's grief in "Christmas" to Truman Capote's hilarious yet heartbreaking "A Christmas Memory", from Grace Paley's Jewish girl in the Christmas pageant in "The Loudest Voice" to the dysfunctional family ski holiday in Richard Ford's "Creche" - each of the stories is imbued with Christmas spirit of one kind or another, and all are richly and indelibly entertaining.

Homecoming HarperCollins

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The highly anticipated new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Clockmaker's Daughter, a sweeping saga with a thrilling mystery at its heart tracing a shocking crime whose effects echo across continents and generations. Adelaide Hills, Christmas Eve, 1959: At the end of a scorching hot day, beside a creek in the grounds of the grand and mysterious mansion, a local delivery man makes a terrible discovery. A police investigation is called and the small town of Tumbeela becomes embroiled in one of the most shocking and perplexing murder cases in the history of South Australia.Sixty years later, Jess is a journalist in search of a story. Having lived and worked in London for almost twenty years, she now finds herself laid off from her full-time job and struggling to make ends meet. A phone call out of nowhere summons her back to Sydney, where her beloved grandmother, Stella, who raised Jess when her mother could not, has suffered a fall and been raced to the hospital. Stella has always been a vibrant and strong presence: decisive, encouraging, young beyond her years. When Jess visits her in the hospital she is alarmed to find her grandmother frail and confused; it's even more alarming to hear from Stella's housekeeper that Stella had been distracted in the weeks before her accident, and that she fell on the steps to the attic - the one place Jess was forbidden from playing when she was small.At a loose end in Stella's house, Jess does some digging of her own. In Stella's bedroom, she discovers a true crime book, chronicling the police investigation into a long-buried tragedy: the Turner Family Tragedy of Christmas Eve, 1959. It is only when Jess skims through the book that she finds a shocking connection between her own family and this once-infamous crime - a crime that has never been resolved satisfactorily. And for a journalist without a story, a cold case might be the best distraction she can find... An epic novel that spans generations, Homecoming asks what we would do for those we love, and how we protect the lies we tell. It explores the power of motherhood, the corrosive effects of tightly held secrets, and the healing nature of truth. Above all, it is a beguiling and immensely satisfying novel from one of the finest writers working today.
