One woman. Endless options. Every choice has consequences. Meek, play-it-safe Marsh has just turned forty-five, and her life is in shambles. Her career is stagnant, her marriage has imploded, and her teenage daughter grows more distant by the day. Marsh is convinced she’s missed her chance at everything—romance, professional fulfillment, and adventure—and is desperate for a do-over. She can’t believe her luck when she’s selected to be the star of the global sensation All This and More, a show that uses quantum technology to allow contestants the chance to revise their pasts and change their present lives. It’s Marsh’s only shot to seize her dreams, and she’s determined to get it right this time. But even as she rises to become a famous lawyer, gets back together with her high school sweetheart, and travels the world, she begins to worry that All This and More’s promises might be too good to be true. Because while the technology is amazing, something seems a bit off.… Can Marsh really make her life everything she wants it to be? And is it worth it? Perfect for fans of Matt Haig’s The Midnight Library and Kate Atkinson’s Life After Life, bestselling author Peng Shepherd’s All This and More is an utterly original, startlingly poignant novel that puts the reader in the driver’s seat.

Title: The Borrowed Hills: A Novel Author: Scott Preston Narrator: David Crellin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 37 minutes Release date: June 4, 2024 Genres: Literary Fiction Publisher's Summary: “Viscerally vivid…half Tarantino and half pitch-black northern realism.” —The Guardian, Named a Best Book of 2024 * “Unfolds with a pleasurable, slow-burn assurance.” —The New York Times Book Review A stunning and “spiky debut” (The Times, London) novel set in the rugged, rural landscape of northwest England, where two sheep farmers lose their flocks and decide to reverse their fortunes by stealing sheep from a rich farm in the south—for fans of Annie Proulx and Cormac McCarthy. In early 2001, a lethal disease breaks out on the hill farms of northwest England, emptying the valleys of sheep and filling the skies with smoke as they burn the carcasses. Two neighboring shepherds lose everything and set their sights on a wealthy farm in the south with its flock of prizewinning animals. So begins the dark tale of Steve Elliman and William Herne. As their sheep rustling leads to more and more difficult decisions, the struggles of the land are never far away. Steve’s only distraction is his growing fascination with William’s enigmatic and independent wife, Helen. When their mountain home comes under the sway of a lawless outsider, Colin Tinley, Steve must save himself and Helen in a savage conflict that threatens the ancient ways of the Lakeland fells. Told in the hardscrabble voice of a forgotten England, Scott Preston creates an uncompromising vision of farmers lost in brutal devotion to their flocks, the aching love affairs that men and women use to sustain themselves, and the painful consequences of a breathtaking heist gone bad. The Borrowed Hills “strides confidently across its pages, like the seasoned work of a veteran” (Star Tribune, Minneapolis), a thrilling and gritty adventure that reimagines the American Western for Britain’s moors and mountains where survival is in the blood.

You’ll be safe here. That’s what the tour guide promises Dr. Linda Farmer and her family when they move to Plymouth Valley. Sure, the locals are privileged hot house flowers who observe a weird religion Hollow, but the schools are blue ribbon, the air’s clean, the food’s fantastic, and Linda’s out of options. With the outside world in shambles, this move is her family’s last chance. Linda, her husband, and their teen twins work hard to fit in, accommodating their square peg personalities into rounded holes. It works at first—the family rise up, gaining acceptance from the powerful elite. Then Linda encounters Gal Parker, a hot mess of a woman, whose wife has abandoned her and whose kids are sick. One terrible night, Gal commits an unthinkable act. All of Plymouth Valley turns on Gal, refusing to speak her name. But Linda can’t stop wondering: what would drive a woman to do something so awful? The more she learns, the more frightened she becomes. A clock is ticking, too—before the Plymouth Valley Winter Festival, Linda’s got to figure out: should she and her family be fighting to stay, or fighting their way out? A heart-poundingly ruthless dissection of wealth, power, and privilege, A Better World is “more terrifying with every turn of the page” (Booklist, starred review) from a writer who “never ceases to amaze” (Gillian Flynn).

Title: [Russian] - Пропавшие наши сердца Author: селеста инг Narrator: марина лисовец Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 45 minutes Release date: October 2, 2023 Genres: Literary Fiction Publisher's Summary: «Пропавшие наши сердца» — новый роман Селесты Инг, автора бестселлеров «И повсюду тлеют пожары» и «Всё, чего я не сказала», о непоколебимой и абсолютной материнской любви в мире, охваченном страхом. Двенадцатилетний Чиж тихо и спокойно живет со своим любящим, но сломленным отцом. Раньше тот был лингвистом, а теперь работает библиотекарем. Чиж знает, что выделяться нельзя. Не задавать слишком много вопросов, не отходить слишком далеко от дома. Последние десять лет жизни Чижа и его папы регулируются новыми законами, нацеленными на сохранение американской культуры после многолетнего периода экономической нестабильности и насилия в стране. Правительство уверено: чтобы сохранить национальную безопасность и вернуть страну на путь процветания, необходимо поддерживать традиционные ценности, протестующих лишать родительских прав, а любые книги, противоречащие закону и духу патриотизма, изымать из библиотек и книжных магазинов. Среди таких книг есть и сборник стихотворений мамы Чижа, американской поэтессы китайского происхождения, которая пропала без вести, когда мальчику было девять лет. Чиж живет, полностью отрекшись от матери и ее стихов, но когда ему приходит таинственное письмо с непонятным рисунком — отправляется на ее поиски. «Пропавшие наши сердца» — это до боли знакомая история, где якобы цивилизованное общество притворяется, что не видит фатальную несправедливость. Это история о том, как искусство порождает перемены, история о наследии, которое мы оставляем своим детям. История о том, как можно выжить в разрушенном мире и сохранить свое сердце.

Title: [Spanish] - La canción de la llanura Author: Kent Haruf Narrator: Mario De Candia Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 12 minutes Release date: September 28, 2023 Genres: Literary Fiction Publisher's Summary: La novela más célebre del autor de Nosotros en la noche. En la pequeña comunidad de Holt, Colorado, un profesor de instituto intenta lidiar con la depresión de su esposa y sacar adelante a sus dos hijos, que empiezan a descifrar el mundo adulto. Una adolescente es expulsada de casa cuando su madre descubre que está embarazada y, gracias a una profesora, encuentra cobijo en la granja de dos viejos hermanos solteros que viven aislados cuidando de su ganado como han hecho siempre. Las vidas de todos ellos, con sus silencios, su soledad y sus anhelos, se cruzan para construir refugios inesperados y familias excepcionales. Tras el éxito internacional de Nosotros en la noche recuperamos una de las novelas más célebres de Kent Haruf, por la cual estuvo nominado al National Book Award y al Los Angeles Times Book Prize. Haciendo acopio de una prosa sobria y una aparente sencillez narrativa, Haruf ha logrado crear en el pueblo imaginario de Holt un paisaje de una particular grandeza mítica que comparte territorio geográfico y humano con Richard Ford, Annie Prouxl o Cormac McCarthy. Los protagonistas de las novelas de Haruf ponen de manifiesto la forma positiva que el autor tenía de ver el mundo, sin sentimentalismos, pero con una sabiduría y una honestidad que han calado hondo en los lectores. Críticas: «En este pueblo inventado, hombres y mujeres sin familia acaban componiendo una sola que perpetúa el valor de las cosas fundamentales. Una América que quizá solo los escritores puedan recuperar.» Juan Marín, El País (Babelia) «La canción de la llanura de Haruf. Leído de un tirón. Magnífico. Recuerda a Dos Passos, a Faulkner... Igual de bueno.» Pablo Abarzuza, Elkar «Haruf ha escrito una novela tan redonda, tan delicada y encantadora, que tiene el poder de apasionar al lector.» The New York Times «Una exploración sobre cómo distintas voces dispares, únicas y aisladas pueden unirse en las circunstancias menos pensadas. [...] Una obra coral que merece ser leída en voz alta.» The Guardian «Una historia sin estridencias, con una bonita cadencia. Una reflexión conmovedora sobre la verdadera naturaleza y la necesidad de la familia, entendida en un sentido amplio.» Kirkus Reviews «Una historia conmovedora sobre el duelo, la soledad y la ira, pero también sobre la bondad, la honestidad, el amor y la construcción de nuevas familias.» Publishers Weekly
