Una habitacion propia
Una habitación propia es el resultado de las reflexiones de la autora al dar forma a las conferencias que le pidieron dictar sobre la novela y las mujeres, “un tema que genera todo tipo de prejuicios y pasiones”, para un público privilegiado, las alumnas de las universidades femeninas de Cambridge, Newnham College y Girton College.

Corría 1928 cuando cumplió en las aulas con el encargo y 1929 cuando sus palabras vieron la luz en papel; pero, en cierto modo, podría haber ocurrido ayer mismo, porque hablamos de un tema recurrente y una de las peculiaridades de la literatura escrita por mujeres en cualquier época en distintos foros y entrevistas a escritoras. Virginia Woolf desarrolla uno de los textos señeros del feminismo y además analiza en profundidad las circunstancias que limitan a las mujeres y las anima a salir de la invisibilidad, les pide que viajen, que vivan, que dispongan de su tiempo, que observen el mundo, que acumulen experiencias..., que aspiren a su independencia económica…, que tengan “una habitación propia”. Una obra de lectura obligada, un ensayo clásico de la literatura universal, para comprender de dónde venimos y hacia dónde nos conviene caminar.

La hija unica
Tres mujeres enfrentadas a la maternidad. Tres maneras de afrontarla. Una intensa y deslumbrante novela sobre la familia en el mundo actual.

Poco después de cumplir los ocho meses de embarazo, a Alina le anuncian que su hija no podrá sobrevivir al nacimiento. Ella y su compañero emprenden entonces un doloroso pero también sorprendente proceso de aceptación y duelo. Ese último mes de gestación se convierte para ellos en una extraña oportunidad para conocer a esa hija a la que tanto trabajo les cuesta renunciar. Laura, la gran amiga de Alina, refiere el conflicto

de esta pareja, mientras reflexiona sobre el amor y su lógica a veces incomprensible, pero también sobre las estrategias que los seres humanos inventamos para superar la frustración. Laura nos cuenta igualmente la historia de su vecina Doris, madre soltera de un niño encantador con problemas de comportamiento.

Escrita con una sencillez solo aparente, La hija única es una novela profunda y llena de sabiduría sobre la maternidad, sobre su negación o su asunción; sobre las dudas, incertidumbres e incluso sentimientos de culpa que la envuelven; sobre las alegrías y las angustias que la acompañan. Es también una novela sobre tres mujeres –Laura, Alina, Doris– y los vínculos –de amistad, de amor– que establecen entre ellas. Una novela sobre las formas diversas que puede tomar la familia en el mundo actual.

El cerebro en duelo
La sorprendente ciencia de cómo aprendemos del amor y de la pérdida.

Primero está el dolor por la pérdida y luego está el duelo. Desde hace mucho tiempo, hemos asignado al duelo al ámbito de las emociones nebulosas, pero ahora sabemos que el cerebro crea esas emociones en respuesta a muchos factores externos. La neurocientífica Mary-Frances O'Connor lleva más de veinte años estudiando los efectos del duelo en el cerebro y en el cuerpo, y los indicios que ha hallado acerca de la forma en la que abordamos la pérdida tienen su origen en la forma en la que nos enamoramos.

En El cerebro en duelo, O'Connor explora este nuevo territorio y explica lo que ocurre dentro del cerebro cuando nos apegamos a otra persona y luego la perdemos; y por qué puede resultar tan difícil imaginar un futuro sin ella. (Pista: A veces el cerebro nos hace creer que la muerte simplemente no ha ocurrido). A los lectores de libros de divulgación científica como El cuerpo lleva la cuenta de Bessel van der Kolk y How Emotions Are Made de Lisa Feldman Barrett, así como de las memorias de Joan Didion, El año del pensamiento mágico, sobre la muerte de un ser querido, El cerebro en duelo ofrece una información destacable sobre el funcionamiento de la mente y la evolución del duelo.

La explicación de O'Connor sobre la reacción del cerebro a una pérdida es una visión inspiradora del amor. Y su descubrimiento de que debemos ver el duelo como una forma de aprendizaje es una perspectiva nueva y audaz de un problema intemporal.

The Witching Tide
Named a best historical novel of the year by The New York Times Book Review and “reminiscent of both The Scarlet Letter and Hamnet” (Jezebel), The Witching Tide is a powerful debut inspired by the true events behind a deadly witch hunt in 17th-century England.

East Anglia, 1645. Martha Hallybread, a midwife, healer, and servant, has lived peacefully for more than four decades in her beloved seaside village of Cleftwater. Having lost her voice as a child, Martha has not spoken a word in years.

One autumn morning, a sinister newcomer appears in town. A “witchfinder,” Silas Makepeace has been blazing a trail of destruction along the coast, and his arrival in Cleftwater strikes fear into the heart of the community. Within a day, local women are being detained. Martha is enlisted to search the accused women for “devil’s marks,” and finds herself a silent witness to the hunt.

Martha is caught between suspicion and betrayal; between shielding herself or condemning the women of the village. In desperation, she revives a wax witching doll that belonged to her mother, in the hope that it will bring protection. But the doll’s true powers are unknowable, Martha harbors a terrible secret, and the gallows are looming…

Set over the course of a few weeks that forever changed history, and for readers of Hilary Mantel and Margaret Atwood, The Witching Tide “illuminates a dark historical period and cautions against its recreation” (Kirkus Reviews).

The Last Dragon of the East
Inspired by Chinese myths of ancient dragon gods and threads of fate, Katrina Kwan’s dazzling fantasy debut is a propulsive adventure perfect for fans of Sue Lynn Tan and Hannah Whitten.

At the spry young age of twenty-five, Sai has led a quiet life, keeping the family teahouse up and running—even if that means ignoring the past-due notices—and taking care of his ailing mother. But he has a not-so-secret gift that he’s parlayed into a side career: he was born with the ability to see the red threads of fate between soulmates, which lends itself nicely to matchmaking. Sai has thus far been content not to follow his own thread, the only one he’s ever seen that’s gray and fraying.

But Sai’s ordinary existence is about to be turned upside-down by a pair of shining dragon scales. When his mother’s doctor sells them to him, claiming them as a miracle cure, Sai is pretty sure he’s being scammed. When the medicine actually works—and the terrifying, ruthless emperor catches wind—Sai is thrust into the search for a dragon long thought extinct that will lead him into the throes of a brewing war and deep into foreign lands, facing down challenges both magical and mortal on an unexpected adventure. And for the very first time, as his own thread of fate begins to move, he may be able to solve the mystery of his Fated One at the other end of the line.

Four for the Road
The Perks of Being a Wallflower meets The End of the F***ing World in this dark young adult comedy about four unlikely friends dealing with the messy side of grief who embark on a road trip to Graceland full of “laughter, tears, budding romance, and well-placed insights” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).

Asher Hunting wants revenge.

Specifically, he wants revenge on the drunk driver who killed his mom and got off on a technicality. No one seems to think this is healthy, though, which is how he ends up in a bereavement group (well, bereavement groups. He goes to several.) It’s there he makes some unexpected friends: There’s Sloane, who lost her dad to cancer; Will, who lost his little brother to a different kind of cancer; and eighty-year-old Henry, who was married to his wife for fifty years until she decided to die on her own terms. And it’s these three who Asher invites on a road trip from New Jersey to Graceland. Asher doesn’t tell them that he’s planning to steal his dad’s car, or the real reason that he wants to go to Tennessee (spoiler alert: it’s revenge)—but then again, the others don’t share their reasons for going, either.

Complete with unexpected revelations, lots of chicken Caesar salads at roadside restaurants, a stolen motorcycle, and an epic kiss at a rest stop minimart, what begins as the road trip to revenge might just turn into a path towards forgiveness.

The Crescent Moon Tearoom
An “impossibly endearing” (Sarah Penner, New York Times bestselling author) debut novel about three clairvoyant sisters who face an unexpected twist of Fate at the bottom of their own delicate porcelain cups.

Ever since the untimely death of their parents, Anne, Beatrix, and Violet Quigley have made a business of threading together the stories that rest in the swirls of ginger, cloves, and cardamon that lie at the bottom of their customers’ cups. Their days at the teashop are filled with talk of butterflies and good fortune intertwined with the sound of cinnamon shortbread being snapped by laced fingers.

That is, until the Council of Witches comes calling with news that the city Diviner has lost her powers, and the sisters suddenly find themselves being pulled in different directions. As Anne’s magic begins to develop beyond that of her sisters’, Beatrix’s writing attracts the attention of a publisher, and Violet is enchanted by the song of the circus—and perhaps a mischievous trapeze artist threatening to sweep her off her feet—it seems a family curse that threatens to separate the sisters is taking effect.

With dwindling time to rewrite their future and help three other witches challenge their own destinies, the Quigleys set out to bargain with Fate. But in focusing so closely on saving each other, will they lose sight of themselves?

The Anxious Generation
A must-read for all parents: the generation-defining investigation into the collapse of youth mental health in the era of smartphones, social media, and big tech—and a plan for a healthier, freer childhood.

“With tenacity and candor, Haidt lays out the consequences that have come with allowing kids to drift further into the virtual world . . . While also offering suggestions and solutions that could help protect a new generation of kids.” —Shannon Carlin, TIME, 100 Must-Read Books of 2024

After more than a decade of stability or improvement, the mental health of adolescents plunged in the early 2010s. Rates of depression, anxiety, self-harm, and suicide rose sharply, more than doubling on many measures. Why?

In The Anxious Generation, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out the facts about the epidemic of teen mental illness that hit many countries at the same time. He then investigates the nature of childhood, including why children need play and independent exploration to mature into competent, thriving adults. Haidt shows how the “play-based childhood” began to decline in the 1980s, and how it was finally wiped out by the arrival of the “phone-based childhood” in the early 2010s. He presents more than a dozen mechanisms by which this “great rewiring of childhood” has interfered with children’s social and neurological development, covering everything from sleep deprivation to attention fragmentation, addiction, loneliness, social contagion, social comparison, and perfectionism. He explains why social media damages girls more than boys and why boys have been withdrawing from the real world into the virtual world, with disastrous consequences for themselves, their families, and their societies.

Most important, Haidt issues a clear call to action. He diagnoses the “collective action problems” that trap us, and then proposes four simple rules that might set us free. He describes steps that parents, teachers, schools, tech companies, and governments can take to end the epidemic of mental illness and restore a more humane childhood.

Haidt has spent his career speaking truth backed by data in the most difficult landscapes—communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the public health emergency faced by Gen Z. We cannot afford to ignore his findings about protecting our children—and ourselves—from the psychological damage of a phone-based life.

Fans of Impressionism will delight in seeing some of their favorite works presented in generously sized accordion fold pages, which bring Monet’s representations of nature to exquisite life.

Arranged chronologically, this volume helps readers appreciate the achievements of a long and fruitful career. Natural beauty, color and light were the object of Monet’s incessant research, and he never lost sight of what was essential to him – the truth of his sensations. From the faithful transcription of the landscape in his early days to the gestural drawing of the final water lilies at Giverny, this book allows us to follow and understand the evolution of his creativity. The themes of Monet’s work (the seashore, the Seine, gardens, the seasons) are discussed, as well as the techniques he used, such as the decomposition of light and color through the brushstroke; the use of repetition and series to better reflect atmospheric variations; and the progressive dissolution of forms, which led to him being considered the precursor of abstraction.

Packaged in an elegant slipcase, this volume reflects the beautiful artistry and timeless traditions that are embodied in the artworks themselves.
