Par Martín Casariego. 2015
"Ismael remembers the time when, at thirteen years old, his parents hired Rai, a boy five years older than him,…
to tutor him. After an unproductive first session, they made a pact: the student would study on his own and the teacher would talk to him about books, movies, music, life.... Also about Samuel, a young man who wrote to schedule a meeting with his ex-girlfriend, with the threat that if she did not show up he would commit suicide. With this starting point, Martín Casariego has written a novel of initiation, a novel about the passage from adolescence to maturity; about the family and the new forms of relationships between young people; about the intensity of such a decisive stage in life; about the weight of existence and how to alleviate it. A story marked by shadows, doubts and secrets, in which the white whale the narrator has been running from will end up showing up unexpectedly years later, changing everything and prompting him to rethink what happened." -- Translation provided by NLSBienvenidos a Villapeste (Pandilla basura #01)

Par Alvaro Enrigue. 2012
"'It's not that I've chosen to be second place, I'm just a natural. Besides, I've believed in the goodness of…
second place for many years.' So begins The Hero's Friend, first published in 1998 and remastered for this edition. This story by Álvaro Enrigue dusts off the naivety and vanity of childhood: Ponchito, a child like any other, played at being the hero. A memorable literary exercise. A sobering experience. Enrigue puts himself at the feet of his protagonist and relives the dialogues of two middle school kids who in their relentless fight against crime are forced to face the ultimate and most unexpected consequences." -- Translation provided by NLSMaldad

responderte y mejor miras a las estrellas. "¡PACHUNGA! ¿Y AHORA QUÉ HAGO CONTIGO?", exclamó mi tío Nino viéndome de arriba abajo.

Bueno, ni a mí, ni a las mascotas, ni siquiera entre ellos. Se van a ir de viaje solos, a ver si así solucionan sus problemas. Y mientras, yo tengo que vivir con Nino y sus treinta mil reglas raras. A veces anda de gala sin motivo, o hace trucos y te sorprende con lo que ni te imaginas, pero sospecho que mi tío lleva algo escondido en el corazón...

mujeres que solo buscamos sexo en nuestras relaciones, nos suelen acusar de frías y de no tener sentimientos. Sin embargo, si sigues leyendo, tal vez me conozcas un poco mejor. Me llamo Miriam, tengo veintiocho años y acabo de conocer a Kira, una chica guapísima de la que llevo tiempo colada y que ¡me ha pedido una cita!Aunque Kira me va a volver loca; a veces me quiere y otras pasa de mí. No logro comprenderla y eso me resulta más tentador. Lo sé, ¡no tengo remedio! Por si fuera poco, también he conocido a Jessi. Una chica encantadora, compresiva y dulce. Aunque la veo más como una amiga que como una historia de amor, ¿o no? ¡Ay, estoy hecha un lío! ¿Apuesto por lo prohibido y sexi o por alguien que me escucha y me comprende? O, quizás, si sigo tan indecisa, pierda a las dos. El amor no está hecho para mí… ¿o sí?Otra luna enterrada
Par Guillermo Estiballes. 2020
Otra luna enterrada constituye una atmósfera de fábula donde la naturaleza tiene voz propia y donde los antiguos hechizos cobran…
vida en la voz y la presteza de un joven descendiente de sefardíes. Buñol (Valencia), siglo XIX. Teodoro el judío, Julia la gitana y Alberto el andaluz se conocen desde niños y, por avatares del destino, sabiendo aprovechar un horrible suceso acaecido a la muchacha, ellos dos consiguen llevar su amor al término que siempre desearon. Así pues, los tres consiguen convivir bajo el mismo techo en una sociedad rural que, a priori, no admite una relación entre dos hombres. Pero el destino es un traicionero bastardo y pronto los problemas tocarán a la puerta en esta inusitada familia, pues en el pueblo vive Roberto Cotino, hijo pródigo de un poderoso empresario que, obsesionado con la muchacha y enemistado desde antaño con el judío, sacudirá los cimientos hasta desbaratar sus planes de felicidad y convivencia. Pero Julia tiene otros planes y una poderosa herramienta: Sabiero el autómata, la creación de su amigo Teodoro. Una novela pincelada con las luces y oscuridades de los primeros librepensadores españoles, en una tierra que se recupera después más de cincuenta años de guerra civil, mientras avanza a traspiés ante el cambio social y tecnológico de aquella no tan lejana época. Una novela ambientada en el costumbrismo sobrenatural de siglo XIX y en las raíces de la intrahistoria española. La crítica ha dicho...«Una novela costumbrista que se inmiscuye en una pequeña logia de Buñol (Valencia), para hablarnos de un siglo XIX íntimo y la relación entre personas, máquinas y naturaleza.»Fantasymundo «Buscaba algo diferente y lo he encontrado. ¿Sabes esos argumentos tan locos que no sabes si va a serun completo fracaso o un acierto absoluto? Pues en este caso al autor le ha resultado positivo.»Diario de una Chicka Lit «Una novela genial, increíble e imaginativa.»La historia en mis libros
