Loodeen Winders - Lewy, six years of age - is growing up sharp. It's the turbulent early 1920s in a market town in the west of Ireland. Free State soldiers patrol in front of the Workhouse. Lewy's worried about his father's car being commandeered again. The nuns loom over Lewy and his classmates, amongst them the orphans - those shadowy figures, 'slobbery and weak and raggy'.\n\nEncounters with Violet and 'Brazenface' Rosaleen McInally in the woods play on Lewy's mind, even while he's trying to fathom the death of his beloved Grandfather. For a treat he goes behind the screen at the Pictures where his father creates the sound effects with his 'Jazzdrums' for the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Lewy's mother works magic on the sewing machine and picks up the pieces when things get out of hand - like the time he breaks his arm walking the wire in their backyard circus.\nOn the fortieth anniversary of Eoghan O Tuairisc's death, this is the first appearance in English of the frank, funny voice of Lewy, a vital witness of his place and time.

Elsa and the Wolfman is a powerful, lyrical duet between father and newborn daughter, written in two contrasting voices. The father, poet and caregiver, uses classical forms to wrestle with anxieties of raising a child and growing older, while Elsa’s lines – willful, instinctive, curious – dart across the page countering and shaping him.\n\nIntimate, moving, funny, and sensitive to harm, the collection explores their bond as they navigate a world beset by pandemics, feathered dinosaurs, kidney stones, cruelty in the borderlands, and stark fairy-tale nightmares. From waking in a smoky house to the Wolfman letting a bat out of a window, it is a book of love, learning, and the profound, playful bond between father and daughter.

Evertonians know what it is to experience greatness. Since the club first came to life in 1878 there have been titles won, European adventures and trips to Wembley. The fans have seen records broken, legends make their mark, matches of undeniable class. Every decade that Everton have been in existence has yielded moments of wonder, games that supporters at the time have cherished for their entire lives and which fans of subsequent generations have looked back on with undeniable pride. From the earliest days, when St Domingo's first morphed into something recognisable as a modern football club, the whole span of Everton's narrative is covered here. Those earliest title wins, those earliest finals, Dean, Lawton, Hickson, the Holy Trinity, Latchford, the glory of Kendall, the agony of Wimbledon, the joy of Royle and restoration under Moyes. Everton Greatest Games is more than just a selection of the moments that have stirred the soul of Blues. It is the story of Everton, the tale of how a church team grew into an English giant.

Un uomo bloccato per propria volontà in una stanza d'ostello di una remota località del Centro America. Un unico pensiero ossessivo gli impedisce di alzarsi dal letto. Un vecchio insegnante irlandese prossimo alla pensione che, dopo una vita coniugale monotona, si sveglia una mattina in compagnia di due mogli identiche. Un italiano dalle fattezze donchisciottesche che, durante un incontro casuale in Chiapas, racconta la sua definitiva sperimentazione della realtà assoluta, raggiunta per mezzo della magia dei funghi acquistati nei pressi delle rovine Maya di Palenque. Queste sono solo alcune delle anime che vivono nei racconti di Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhride, uno scrittore irlandese poco più che trentenne che scrive oggi, in gaelico, storie fuori dal tempo.

Does the sight of half-scarves enrage you? Does transfer-deadline day make you want to throw a brick through the TV? Do the opening bars of goal music make your ears bleed? If the answer is 'yes', then this could be the book for you. Since English football's very own 'Year Zero' in 1992, the game has changed beyond recognition, rejecting the rough-and-ready days of the past. And like any change, not all of it has been welcome. The quality of the 'football product' might be better but it's come with spiralling levels of debt, yawning inequality and Neymar advertising batteries. These, and many other ills of the modern game, form Jim Keoghan's exploration of the nation's favourite pastime. Navigating a world populated by dodgy owners, celebrity referees and Ray Winstone's floating head, he searches for an answer to the question: Is it Just Me or is Modern Football S**t?

Helen Appleby desidera solo una vita tranquilla. Appena uscita di prigione per l'omicidio colposo del suo compagno, sta cercando di dimenticare i propri errori − tutti − per ricominciare da capo. Aprire una libreria le sembra il modo perfetto per iniziare una nuova vita: tra gli scaffali silenziosi può nascondersi dal mondo reale e ritrovare sé stessa. L'universo creato dai libri è il rifugio ideale per cercare la felicità, anche se è tutta finzione. Ma le colpe non si cancellano... Mentre Helen si adatta alla sua nuova vita da libraia apparentemente timida, qualcuno sembra deciso a sabotare tutto ciò che ha costruito. Ma Helen si è già macchiata le mani di sangue. E per proteggere il suo futuro, potrebbe essere pronta a farlo di nuovo...
