Με λες φτωχοδιάβολο, weirdo, τσουλίτσα, φουκαρά, καμένο χαρτί. Καταναλώνω τσάμπα οξυγόνο μού είπες, ενώ ήμουν ξαπλωμένος μπρούμυτα και μου περνούσες χειροπέδες. Αναρωτιέσαι κι εσύ σε τι χρησιμεύω. Θες να σου πω; Σε κάνω να νιώθεις καλύτερα για τον εαυτό σου. Έχω ρίξει τον πήχη τόσο χαμηλά που με προσπερνάς και νιώθεις σένιος. Τα έχεις καταφέρει. Δεν είσαι εγώ, δεν σε πετάνε έξω από τα μπαρ, δεν είσαι κλεφτρόνι να σε συλλαμβάνουν μέρα μεσημέρι καταμεσής του δρόμου, εσύ κλέβεις αλλιώς.
Όμως, σου παρέχω θέαμα, παραδέξου το. Σε έχω δει τόσες φορές να με κοιτάς με αηδία και οργή. Σε έχω δει κι εσένα που με κοιτάς με συμπόνια λέγοντας oh my god και αηδίες. Λες και με νοιάζει. Είκοσι ζωές στη γη της αφθονίας. Είκοσι αντιήρωες, που το αμερικανικό όνειρο άφησε έξω από τις φτερούγες του, και ξεστρατισμένοι πορεύονται με δεκανίκια και τρύπιες ασπίδες. Τους μισείς θανάσιμα, ή τους αγαπάς πολύ. Λες και τους νοιάζει.

A novel about passion, death, and the ambiguous relationship between art and realityAntonia grows up in rural Corsica, a place of deeply-rooted traditions and strong family ties. When she's fourteen, her uncle, a priest, gives her a camera-suddenly changing the way she looks at the world and igniting a life-long passion. Over two decades later, Antonia runs into Dragan, a soldier whom she had met when she was reporting on the war in the former Yugoslavia. The two spend the night in deep conversation, reminiscing about their experience of the conflict. As she drives home, Antonia loses control of her car, plunges off a cliff and is killed instantly. Tasked with officiating at her funeral, Antonia's uncle is forced to reflect on her life and legacy and on the profound questions they beg about ambition and doubt, passion and guilt, representation and reality. Wide in scope but rich in detail, restrained yet deeply moving, In His Own Image weaves together the story of a life with universal themes that resonate across time and space.

'In some of the most beautiful passages in the novel, Allende explores the gentle but redemptive depths of mature love and the paths it can take . . . Allende has an unflashy wisdom to offer, a maturity that illuminates her storytelling . . . it pursues an age-old question: how to live a full life and find meaning, not just survive or endure one’s past’ Financial Times on In the Midst of Winter

It tells the story of a beautiful and innocent young woman, married at sixteen to a much older man.

It is only after a series of painful experiences that she comes to appreciate the silent devotion of her loyal and protective cousin.

"Seek and ye shall find.' With these words echoing in his head, eminent Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon awakes in a hospital bed with no recollection of where he is or how he got there. Nor can he explain the origin of the macabre object that is found hidden in his belongings. A threat to his life will propel him and a young doctor, Sienna Brooks, into a breakneck chase across the city of Florence. Only Langdon's knowledge of hidden passageways and ancient secrets that lie behind its historic facade can save them from the clutches of their unknown pursuers. With only a few lines from Dante's dark and epic masterpiece, The Inferno, to guide them, they must decipher a sequence of codes buried deep within some of the most celebrated artefacts of the Renaissance - sculptures, paintings, buildings - to find the answers to a puzzle which may, or may not, help them save the world from a terrifying threat. Set against an extraordinary landscape inspired by one of history's most ominous literary classics, Inferno is Dan Brown's most compelling and thought-provoking novel yet, a breathless race-against-time thriller that will grab you from page one and not let you go until you close the book."

'I don't think I've ever read anything that conveys so well the joys, terrors and pitfalls of reading' Diana Wynne Jones on InkheartLife in the Inkworld has been far from easy since the extraordinary events of Inkspell, when the story of Inkheart magically drew Meggie, Mo and Dustfinger back into its pages.

Even Elinor, left alone in the real world, believes her family to be lost - lost between the covers of a book. But as winter comes on there is reason to hope - if only Meggie and Mo can rewrite the wrongs of the past and make a dangerous pact with death.
