Sometimes true love takes a little heavy lifting The gym is Lizzie's life--it's her passion, her job, and the only place that's ever felt like home. Unfortunately, her bosses consider her a glorified check-in girl at best, and the gym punching bag at worst. When their son, Lizzie's best friend, James, begs her to be his plus one at his perfect sister Cara's wedding, things go wrong immediately, and culminate in Lizzie giving a drunken pep talk to a hot stranger in the women's bathroom--except that stranger is actually the bride-to-be, and Lizzie has accidentally convinced her to ditch her groom. Now, newly directionless Cara is on a quest to find herself, and Lizzie--desperate to make sure her bosses never find out her role in this fiasco--gets strong-armed by James into "entertaining" her. Cara doesn't have to know it's a setup; it'll just be a quick fling before she sobers up and goes back to her real life. After all, how could someone like Cara fall for someone like Lizzie, with no career and no future? But the more Lizzie gets to know Cara, the more she likes her, and the bigger the potential disaster if any of her rapidly multiplying secrets get out. Because now it's not just Lizzie's job and entire future on the line, but also the girl of her dreams.

Priya is a maidservant, one among several who make the treacherous journey to the top of the Hirana every night to clean Malini’s chambers. She is happy to be an anonymous drudge, so long as it keeps anyone from guessing the dangerous secret she hides. But when Malini accidentally bears witness to Priya’s true nature, their destinies become irrevocably tangled. One is a vengeful princess seeking to depose her brother from his throne. The other is a priestess seeking to find her family. Together, they will change the fate of an empire.

Franny Stone has always been the kind of woman who is able to love but unable to stay. Leaving behind everything but her research gear, she arrives in Greenland with a singular purpose: to follow the last Arctic terns in the world on what might be their final migration to Antarctica. Franny talks her way onto a fishing boat, and she and the crew set sail, traveling ever further from shore and safety. But as Franny’s history begins to unspool—a passionate love affair, an absent family, a devastating crime—it becomes clear that she is chasing more than just the birds. When Franny's dark secrets catch up with her, how much is she willing to risk for one more chance at redemption? Epic and intimate, heartbreaking and galvanizing, Charlotte McConaghy's Migrations is an ode to a disappearing world and a breathtaking page-turner about the possibility of hope against all odds.

Una mujer vive en la ladera de la montaña, entre la neblina que baja y el follaje feraz. Su misión es cuidar los linderos, avisar al celador de cualquier anomalía. En sus cuadernos escribe sobre su rutina parsimoniosa y los recuerdos de una infancia marcada por una madre brutal y por el deseo insatisfecho de aprender. Al fondo, se escucha la cantera y el ruido de las camionetas blindadas sobre la destapada. Un día aparece en su jardín un cuerpo, y turbados y cuidadosos de no llamar la atención, con el celador deciden enterrarlo. Pero aparece otro. Y otro y otro y otro… La escritura prodigiosa, característica de Trías, reluce en esta novela inquietante y atmosférica, en la que los tópicos de la madre, la violencia y la relación con la naturaleza reaparecen, y con cuánta fuerza estremecen al lector. La crítica ha «Vuelve la literatura médium, chamánica, la escritura lírica y clarividente de Fernanda Trías. Si las montañas hablaran tendrían la furia de su lenguaje». Gabriela Wiener «El monte de las furias es un libro excepcional, duro, descarnado, hermoso, primigenio, terroso y verde, muy, muy vivo aunque la desaparición y el tiempo sean o parezcan sus protagonistas mayores». Emiliano Monge «El monte de las furias me ha parecido uno de los textos más singulares y poderosos que he leído en los últimos años». Juan Cárdenas «Con meditaciones inolvidables sobre el lenguaje y las palabras que nos pesan, El monte de las furias es una novela hermosa para mí, la mejor de la autora hasta ahora sobre todo aquello que triste y necesariamente tenemos que dejar atrás». Giuseppe Caputo
