A major international debut novel from a storyteller who couples a timelessly beguiling style to an energetically modern worldscape.Thirteen passengers are stranded at an airport. Tokyo, their destination, is covered in snow and all flights are cancelled. To pass the night they form a huddle by the silent baggage carousels and tell each other stories.Robert De Niro’s child, conceived in a Laundromat, masters the transubstantiation of matter and turns it against his enemies; a Ukrainian merchant is led by a wingless bird back to a lost lover; a man who edits other people’s memories has to confront his own past; a Chinese youth with amazing luck cuts men’s hair and cleans their ears; an entrepreneur risks losing everything in his obsession with a doll; a mute Turkish girl is left all alone in the house of German cartographer.Told by people on a journey, these are stories about lives in transit. Stories from the great cities – New York, Istanbul, Delhi, Lagos, Paris, Buenos Aires – that grow in to a novel about the hopes and dreams and disappointments that connect people everywhere.Dasgupta’s writing is utterly distinctive and fresh, so striking that it seems to come from the future and the past all at once, but in marrying a timeless mystery to an alert modernity, his cautionary tales manage to be reminiscent of both Ballard and Borges, depicting ordinary extraordinary individuals (some lost, some confused, some happy) in a world that remains ineffable, inexplicable, wonderful.

Tom Amca’nın Kul?besi 1852’de yayımlandıktan sonra k?lelik karşıtı hareketi besleyen ve d?nya ?apında ?n kazanan bir eserdir. Hik?ye ilk başta National Era’da bir dizi olarak yerini almış, g?rd?ğ? ilgi ?zerine kitap olarak basılmıştır. Pek ?ok dile ?evirisi yapılan eser, d?nya edebiyatının klasiklerinden biridir. Kitaptaki olaylar işine bağlı, sevgi dolu ve sadık k?le Tom Amca’nın etrafında ge?mektedir. Eser, k?lelerin yaşayışını ger?ek?i bir dille ele alırken, aynı zamanda sorunlarının ??z?mlerine y?nelik bir ?ağrı niteliğinde olmuştur. K?le olan insanın ?aresizliği, k?leliğin ahlaki a?ıdan yanlışlığı, insanlığı k???k d?ş?rmesi ve din ile bağdaşmayan y?nleri kitapta anlatılmıştır. Bu duygusal roman, yayımlandığı zaman b?y?k tepki toplasa da 19. y?zyılın en ?ok satan romanlarından biri h?line gelmiştir. K?lelerin acılarını ve k?le sahibi olanların vicdansızlıklarını g?zler ?n?ne sererek k?leliğe karşı bir tavır alınan eserde, ?zg?rl?ğ?n değeri insanlığın ayıbı olan k?lelikten ?rneklerle anlatılır. Romanın ana karakteri olan vefalı, d?r?st Tom Amca, iyi kalbiyle ve inan?lı davranışlarıyla rol modeli olmuştur. ?l?rken ailesine onun yolunu izlemelerini vasiyet eden Tom Amca, zalim bir efendisi olsa da i?indeki iyiliği ve sevgiyi diğer insanlarla paylaşmıştır. Roman, siyah ırkı temsil etmesi sebebiyle de eleştirilere hedef olmuştur. Yine de yazıldığı zamandan bu yana milyonlarca kişinin y?reğine dokunmuş, g?n?m?ze kadar yankısını s?rd?rm?ş olan duygusal bir romandır. Tom Amca’nın h?z?nl? ve i? burkan hik?yesi, eğitici ve merakla okunacak bir eserdir. "Sağlam adamlar altı yedi yıl dayanırlar, ??r?klerinin iki ?? yılda işleri biter. İşe ilk başladığımda onlarla epey bir canımı sıktım ve dayanmaları i?in uğraştım, hastalandıklarında doktora g?sterdim, onlara giysi, battaniye ve benzeri şeyler verdim, rahat ve temiz tutmaya ?alıştım. Tanrı’m, buna hi? gerek yokmuş, onların y?z?nden para kaybettim ve bir s?r? dertle uğraştım. Artık g?rd?ğ?n?z gibi hasta ya da iyi, onları doğrudan işe koşturuyorum. Zencinin biri ?l?nce diğerini alıyorum, her a?ıdan daha ucuza ve kolayıma geliyor."

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.Thomas Hughes’ novel about the mischievous but kind-hearted schoolboy Tom Brown inspired other school novels, including Frank Richards’ Billy Bunter stories and J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. The novel begins at Tom’s childhood home in the Vale of the White Horse, where he spends his days out in the fields with his pony. This early idyllic setting it set up as a contrast to the stresses that Tom undergoes later at Rugby boarding school when he encounters the bully Flashman. Tom is helped through his struggles by his friends Harry ‘Scud’ East and the frail but brilliant George Arthur, whom Tom protects, and who ultimately helps Tom develop into a young gentleman ready for Oxford university.

Set in his native Northern Ireland, John Lynch's debut novel is a lyrically told and exquisitely tender story of innocence and loss.‘He remembers when he was very young standing by water…How he had got there or where the pond was he couldn’t remember, but he can vaguely recall a larger hand on his and being led through the high rooms of a large building, to a large garden, where bees wove dozy patterns in the air. At the bottom of this garden lay the large pond, and he remembers a face bending to meet his and whispering that he would be back in a little while. So he stood where he had been left, his small feet pointing at the stonework of the pond’s rim. He remembers a wind brewing in the tops of the trees and tearing at the water of the pond for a moment, before subsiding, his face blurring into focus like a TV channel being tuned.’When James Lavery's father is blown to bits by a bomb he intended to maim and kill others with, the boy keeps him alive in his imagination as a superhero, escaping the daily grind of school, his mother's drinking and his own acute loneliness by inventing extraordinary adventures for them both. But, gradually, through the agonies of adolescence James begins to understand the real cost of his father's weak and deluded heroism.It is only when he falls in love himself, during a summer away from his tortured home life, that James finally begins to understand the true complexities of love, life and death…

Ze zullen snel ontdekken dat de waarheid naar een hel leidt waarvan ze het bestaan niet afwisten. DREYA LOVE bijt zich vast … als een pitbull Dana Lyons comb Dreya Love Transformatie is een aantrekkelijke thriller die de recentste romantische trends combineert met de omgekeerde harem, gedaanteverwisselingen, een detectiveverhaal en een snuifje sciencefiction. FBI speciaal agent Dreya Love werkt liefst alleen, ze drinkt mescal en ze houdt van vrijblijvende seks. Vraag haar telefoonnummer dus maar niet. Bij de FBI heeft ze haar eigen, erg principi?le manier van werken, maar ze is bereid de regels te overtreden als dat nodig is om een leven te redden of een misdaad te voorkomen. Wanneer haar vriendin, de dochter van een senator, vermoord wordt, is ze verplicht samen te werken met rechercheur Rhys Morgan, want anders moet ze in de diepste krochten van de hel gaan werken. Ze worstelen om een spoor te vinden terwijl meer doden vallen waarvan het lichaam dezelfde afwijkingen vertoont als hun eerste slachtoffer, dus wordt Interpolagent Quinn Kingston aan het Europese team toegevoegd. Dankzij een officieuze tactiek, zoals inbreken in het huis van de senator, komt ze samen met Rhys een doofpotoperatie van de overheid op het spoor rond een geheim genetisch onderzoeksprogramma in een ruimtestation op de planeet Draco Prime. Ze worden gewaarschuwd om ”het op te geven”; door dit dreigement wordt de zaak dodelijk. De jacht op een moordenaar en een dodelijke fancy drug, gemaakt met een buitenaards ingredi?nt, brengen hen samen op een manier die ze zich nooit hadden kunnen voorstellen. Ze zullen snel ontdekken dat de waarheid naar een hel leidt waarvan ze het bestaan niet afwisten. Ze sporen de chemicus, Gideon Smith, op die de dodelijke drug verkocht. Smith voelt zich in het nauw gedreven en geeft hen een dosis van de Nobilityformule die Dr. Anthony Lazar gecre?erd heeft in het geheime Dracoruimtestation. En hoewel Nobility hen niet doodt, verandert de formule wel hun DNA; ze zijn niet langer wat ze waren. Dreya heeft een andere kleur ogen gekregen en haar zicht is enorm sterk geworden. Ze kan micro-expressies op iemands gezicht lezen en interpreteren, een talent dat een tweesnijdend zwaard blijkt te zijn. Bovendien heeft Nobility haar ook telepathische gaven gegeven om in contact te blijven met Rhys en Quinn als ze een dierlijke vorm aannemen. Rhys is een raaf; Quinn een wolf. Ze zijn alle drie uitzonderlijk. Onmenselijk. Uitzonderlijk. Nobel. Nadat ze Nobility overleven, nemen ze Smith gevangen. Radeloos neemt hij de drug en sterft. Maar de zaak is nog niet gesloten. Een nieuw slachtoffer drijft Dreya, Rhys en Quinn naar een buitenaardse opdracht – het Dracoruimtestation in Boek 2. Het eerste wat ze willen doen, is Dr. Anthony Lazar, de schepper van Nobility, ondervragen. Het is zijn droom om het menselijk ras genetisch te veranderen en een nobeler wezen te cre?ren met de positieve kenmerken die in de natuur aanwezig zijn. Zijn doel is alle negatieve menselijke kenmerken, zoals hebzucht, afgunst, corruptie en jaloezie uit te schakelen en ze te vervangen door aantrekkelijker kenmerken, zoals trouw, vastberadenheid en niet-aflatende toewijding.
