Cursed Bunny is a genre-defying collection of short stories by Korean author Bora Chung. Blurring the lines between magical realism, horror, and science-fiction, Chung uses elements of the fantastic and surreal to address the very real horrors and cruelties of patriarchy and capitalism in modern society. Anton Hur’s translation skilfully captures the way Chung’s prose effortlessly glides from being terrifying to wryly humorous. Winner of a PEN/Heim Grant.

Las diez historias recogidas en este volumen plantean el terrible escenario, fuente habitual de miedos adultos e infantiles, de que lo sobrenatural se apodere del espacio doméstico y nuestra vida cotidiana. En «La cabeza», una mujer se ve atormentada a diario por una extraña criatura que surge de su lavabo e interfiere en su día a día, mientras que en «Conejo maldito» –el relato que da nombre a esta espeluznante colección– es un objeto normal e inofensivo, una lámpara con forma de roedor, la que extiende una maldición entre todas las personas que la poseen. A medio camino entre el terror, la ciencia-ficción y la literatura del absurdo, Bora Chung ha unificado en sus cuentos todas sus obsesiones literarias: las leyendas tradicionales de Corea, la literatura europea grotesca, los géneros fantásticos más retorcidos y una generosa dosis de terror cotidiano, todo ello acompañado de un enfoque feminista, pues muchos de los horrores que se describen en este libro tienen que ver con los retos, las penurias y las desventajas de ser mujer en el primer mundo en el comienzo del siglo xxi. En uno de los relatos, una mujer se queda embarazada de tanto tomar la píldora anticonceptiva. En otra historia, una joven diseña un androide perfecto, tan humano y tan vivo, que su amor le impide tomar la decisión lógica, la de destruirlo. Cada relato nos lleva por caminos inesperados: asombro, repugnancia, estupor, miedo, perplejidad; todos comienzan en un terreno firme, conocido, pero rápidamente entran en el espacio del realismo mágico, de lo ilógico, lo escalofriante o lo cruel. Una nueva voz del relato fantástico que expande los límites del género con una personalidad arrolladora.

The unforgettable novel of a childhood in a sleepy Southern town and the crisis of conscience that rocked it. "To Kill A Mockingbird" became both an instant bestseller and a critical success when it was first published in 1960. It went on to win the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and was later made into an Academy Award-winning film, also a classic. Compassionate, dramatic, and deeply moving, "To Kill A Mockingbird" takes readers to the roots of human behavior - to innocence and experience, kindness and cruelty, love and hatred, humor and pathos. Now with over 18 million copies in print and translated into forty languages, this regional story by a young Alabama woman claims universal appeal. Harper Lee always considered her book to be a simple love story. Today it is regarded as a masterpiece of American literature.

Everyone around Iris Kelly is in love. Her best friends are all coupled up, her siblings have partners that are perfect for them, her parents are still in marital bliss. And she’s happy for all of them, truly. So what if she usually cries in her Lyft on the way home. So what if she misses her friends, who are so busy with their own wonderful love lives, they don’t really notice Iris is spiraling. At least she has a brand-new career writing romance novels (yes, she realizes the irony of it). She is now working on her second book but has one problem: she is completely out of ideas after having spent all of her romantic energy on her debut. Perfectly happy to ignore her problems as per usual, Iris goes to a bar in Portland and meets a sexy stranger, Stefania, and a night of dancing and making out turns into the worst one-night stand Iris has had in her life (vomit and crying are regretfully involved). To get her mind off everything and overcome her writer's block, Iris tries out for a local play, but comes face-to-face with Stefania—or, Stevie, her real name. When Stevie desperately asks Iris to play along as her girlfriend, Iris is shocked, but goes along with it because maybe this fake relationship will actually get her creative juices flowing and she can get her book written. As the two women play the part of a couple, they turn into a constant state of hot-and-bothered and soon it just comes down to who will make the real first move…

An interior designer learns to rebuild her love life from the ground up with zero blueprints in this new romantic comedy by Ashley Herring Blake, author of Delilah Green Doesn't Care. For Astrid Parker, failure is unacceptable. Ever since she broke up with her fiancé a year ago, she’s been focused on her career—her friends might say she’s obsessed, but she’s just driven. When Pru Everwood asks her to be the designer for the Everwood Inn’s renovation that will be broadcasted on a popular home improvement show, Innside America, Astrid knows this is the answer to everything that is wrong with her life. It’ll be the perfect distraction from her failed love life, and her perpetually displeased mother might finally give her nod of approval. However, Astrid never planned on Jordan Everwood, Pru’s granddaughter and lead carpenter for the inn’s renovation, who despises every modern design decision Astrid makes. Jordan is determined to preserve the history of her family’s inn, particularly as the rest of her life is in shambles. When that determination turns into a little light sabotage, ruffling Astrid’s perfect little feathers, the showrunners ask them to play up the tension. But somewhere along the way, their dislike for each other turns into something quite different, and Astrid must decide what success truly means. Is she going to pursue the life that she’s expected to lead, or the one she wants?
