En un atardecer de septiembre de 1905, una niña nace de una madre aturdida por el opio en la antigua ciudad de Esmirna. En ese mismo instante, un apuesto espía indio llega al puerto con una misión secreta del Imperio britanico. Navega entre agujas y minaretes dorados, el aroma de higos y sicomoros, y los gritos de los vendedores ambulantes que anuncian sus productos. Cuando marche de Esmirna, diecisiete años despues, lo hara aterrorizado por el denso olor a queroseno y humo mientras las llamas devoran la ciudad y sus habitantes hasta su total destruccion. Muchas cosas habran ocurrido entre su llegada y su partida. Nacimientos, muertes, romances y duelo estan por venir mientras estas calles pacificas y cosmopolitas se utilizan como moneda de cambio tras la Primera Guerra Mundial y la disolucion del Imperio otomano. Narrada a traves de los destinos entrelazados de una familia levantina, una griega, una turca y una armenia, esta inolvidable novela revela una ciudad y una cultura ahora perdidas en el tiempo. Y unos personajes que siguen teniendo muchas cosas que decirnos, pues como afirma Sherezade, "cuando resurgi de las cenizas de la ciudad perdida, me llamaron Sherezade. A pesar de que un siglo ha pasado desde mi nacimiento, aun no ha llegado a su fin mi vida, condenada a cien años de silencio. Aunque mi lengua este muda lo contare todo".

En una granja de Denby, Iowa, Rosanna y Walter Langdon se guían por unos valores tradicionales que intentan transmitir a sus cinco hijos, muy distintos entre sí, como lo son las circunstancias que les tocara atravesar. Frank, el primogenito, inteligente y testarudo; Joe, apasionado por los animales y conectado con la vida rural, lo que lo convierte en el heredero natural de las tierras de su familia; Lillian, dulce y obediente, casada con un hombre que solo muestra su verdadera cara con ella; Henry, el raton de biblioteca que no tiene problemas en ser una rara avis; y Claire, la menor y la favorita de su padre.Desde los años posteriores a la Primera Guerra Mundial hasta los albores de la Guerra Fria, Un poco de suerte traza un retrato intimo y a la vez monumental de una familia americana enfrentada a los profundos cambios sociales, politicos y tecnologicos que marcaron la primera mitad del siglo XX.Con humor, compasion y una mirada inteligente sobre la historia y el caracter humano, Jane Smiley ganadora del Premio Pulitzer despliega aqui una vez mas su enorme talento narrativo. Primera entrega de la Trilogia de los cien años, esta novela inaugura una saga familiar que combina la profundidad narrativa con la delicadeza emocional de un relato escrito para perdurar. Una historia sobre lo que se transmite, lo que se pierde y la pequeña porcion de destino que define una vida.

Dylan, Stevie and Ben have been inseparable since their days at Trinity, when everything seemed possible. A glance between them can still conjure their younger selves: dancing beneath pulsing lights, the sharp taste of salt after swims in Dublin Bay.Two decades on, life feels smaller. Dylan, once a rugby star, is stranded on the sofa, cared for by his wife Rachel. Across town, Stevie and Bens relationship has settled into weary routine. Then, after countless auditions, Ben lands a role in Pinters Betrayal. As rehearsals unfold, the plays shifting allegiances seep into reality, reviving old jealousies and awakening sudden longings, as each must reckon with how far theyre willing to go in pursuit of desire.Wry, sexy and deftly observed, Little Vanities is a novel about the dangerous thrill of stepping outside the roles weve been given - and the distance between the lives we imagine and the ones we live.

Berlin, 1920s: a beacon of culture and hedonism, but a political mess. The streets are crowded with war veterans, beggars, prostitutes and madmen, desperately chasing any means to secure a few marks or a roof over their heads. Come nighttime, a rag-tag group descends on the Jolly Huntsman pub to dance and drown their cares in all the schnapps they can afford. But in this society on the brink, pleasure all too easily erupts into violence.A bleakly comic story of struggle and discontent on the fringes of the metropolis, Berlin Shuffle is a blistering portrait of a divided society that would give way to fascism. Written when he was just twenty-two years old, Boschwitzs first novel displays his extraordinary talent for capturing Germanys self-destruction, which would tragically engulf him only five years later.
