Una novel·la de desamor íntima i actual que retrata una generació que busca el seu propi camí. La Matilda té vint-i-quatre anys i una sensació constant de caos interior. No sap si estima o si només te por de quedar-se sola. No sap si vol marxar de la feina o aguantar. Des de Cadaques fins a Barcelona, la seva vida es desplega en un relat ple de sensibilitat i contradiccions. Hi ha un desamor que pesa, una avia que sesvaeix a poc a poc, una millor amiga que li dona suport i un Guillem que sempre ha estat alla pero potser mai prou. La Matilda ens convida a mirar dins seu i ens guia en un viatge emocional i generacional: aquell en que, sense bruixola, busquem qui som. Amb una veu tendra, ironica i profundament honesta, Carla Clavera debuta amb una novel·la que parla del que costa deixar anar i del que encara esperem recuperar. Una novel·la de descobriment dincomoditat emocional i daprenentatges petits que retrata una generacio atrapada entre el fet de voler-ho tot i no saber per on començar.
Tant els vius com els morts amaguen veritats que, quan tot es precipiti, sortiran a la llum. Perquè hi ha secrets que no es poden enterrar. La investigadora Renée Colomé ha rebut l'encàrrec de trobar

Like a long winters dream, this haunting and visionary new novel from 2024 Nobel Prize winner Han Kang takes us on a journey from contemporary South Korea into its painful historyBeginning one morning in December, We Do Not Part traces the path of Kyungha as she travels from the city of Seoul into the forests of Jeju Island, to the home of her old friend Inseon. Hospitalized following an accident, Inseon has begged Kyungha to hasten there to feed her beloved pet bird, who will otherwise die.Kyungha takes the first plane to Jeju, but a snowstorm hits the island the moment she arrives, plunging her into a world of white. Beset by icy wind and snow squalls, she wonders if she will arrive in time to save the bird or even survive the terrible cold which envelops her with every step. As night falls, she struggles her way to Inseons house, unaware as yet of the descent into darkness which awaits her.There, the long-buried story of Inseons family surges into light, in dreams and memories passed from mother to daughter, and in a painstakingly assembled archive documenting a terrible massacre on the island seventy years before.We Do Not Part is a hymn to friendship, a eulogy to the imagination and above all an indictment against forgetting.
On the eve of her daughters wedding, Gail Baines loses her job and is surprised by the arrival of her ex-husband Maxalong with a cat and old memories. As tensions rise and secrets emerge, this witty and heartfelt novel explores love, family, and second chances.
