On a hot day in Bethlehem, a 12-year-old Palestinian-American girl is yelled at by a group of men outside the Church of the Nativity. She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: "You exist too much," she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer. In Brooklyn, she moves into an apartment with her first serious girlfriend and tries to content herself with their comfortable relationship. But soon her longings, so closely hidden during her teenage years, explode out into reckless romantic encounters and obsessions with other people. Her desire to thwart her own destructive impulses will eventually lead her to The Ledge, an unconventional treatment center that identifies her affliction as "love addiction." In this strange, enclosed society she will start to consider the unnerving similarities between her own internal traumas and divisions and those of the places that have formed her. Opening up the fantasies and desires of one young woman caught between cultural, religious, and sexual identities, You Exist Too Much is a captivating story charting two of our most intense longings: for love, and a place to call home.

I come from a country that was created at midnight. When I almost died it was just after midday. When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley in Pakistan, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education. On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, when she was fifteen, she almost paid the ultimate price. She was shot in the head at point-blank range while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive. Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she has become a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest-ever Nobel Peace Prize laureate. I Am Malala is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, of a father who, himself a school owner, championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of brave parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons.

«Mi padre era jardinero. Ahora es jardín.» En El jardinero y la muerte, Gueorgui Gospodínov nos sumerge en los interminables meses durante los que, día tras día, vio cómo se iba apagando la vida de su padre. Mientras este moría a su lado consumido por la enfermedad, Gospodínov le sostuvo la mano hasta que llegó el fin. Y aun en su lecho de muerte, para él seguía siendo el más alto, el más guapo, el más amable. Seguía siendo su padre. Entre los campos de fresas de la infancia y el inevitable adiós, Gospodínov teje un relato íntimo sobre el duelo y la memoria. ¿Cómo se despide una vida en sus últimos días? ¿Cómo se enfrenta un hijo al derrumbe del héroe que lo protegió? ¿Seguimos existiendo si se va la última persona que nos recordaba como niños? ¿Y cómo afrontamos la ausencia de quienes nos hicieron ser quienes somos? Este no es un libro sobre la muerte, sino sobre el dolor de presenciar el final de una vida. Es una historia sobre padres e hijos, sobre la peculiar cultura del silencio que a menudo los envuelve y que puede teñir incluso los vínculos más profundos. Un mutismo que marcó de un modo irónico la vida del autor, ya que su padre fue un hombre muy callado y, a la vez, un sublime contador de historias.
