Book excerpt: Αυτή εδώ είναι η ιστορία της Μάργκο Κρουπ, μιας έφηβης απ' τα μεσοδυτικά που αφήνει την πατρίδα της, το Μάουντ Πλέζαντ του Μίσιγκαν, για να πάει στο Χόλλυγουντ. Στο τέλος του δρόμου βρίσκονται ο Σήζαρ, ο νεαρός Μεξικανός που ερωτεύεται τρελά, κι ο Μαξ, ένας φανατικός κινηματογραφόφιλος που μανατζάρει ένα ροκ συγκρότημα, τους Gringos, καθώς κι ο Γκρεγκ Τζόουνς, ένας πρώην ρόουντι των Grand Funk που γράφει τ' απομνημονεύματά του· και κάμποσοι άλλοι παράξενοι κι ευάλωτοι άνθρωποι που γεμίζουν, άθελά τους, τη ζωή της Μάργκο με τρυφερότητα, αναστάτωση και απόγνωση. Και παρ' όλο που η Φτωχή Μάργκο μιλάει για το πώς είναι να είσαι νέος, κι ανήσυχος και έκπληκτος μέσα στη μεγαλούπολη, δεν πρόκειται για ένα μυθιστόρημα πάνω στο σεξ, τα ναρκωτικά και το ροκ εν ρολ, αλλά μάλλον για το χρονικό μιας ενηλικίωσης, μιας ελεύθερης πτώσης κι ενός ανεκπλήρωτου έρω

From his debut collection, “The Day We Got Drunk on Cake,” published in 1968, to “Family Sins” (1990), William Trevor has crafted the short story to perfection, giving us brilliant and subtle stories full of the reversals, surprises, and shadowy truths we discover in life itself.

They depict the comforts and frustrations of life in rural Ireland, the complexities of family relationships, and the elusive grace of love.

Download or read book The Less Dead written by Denise Mina and published by Mulholland Books. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this "thought-provoking" thriller from the author of the Reese Witherspoon book club pick and national bestseller Conviction, a woman in crisis finds herself on the hunt for her own mother's murderer (People). Dr. Margo Dunlop is at a crossroads. Her adoptive mom just passed away, and Margo misses her so much she can't begin to empty the house-or, it seems, get her brother on the phone. Not to mention she's newly single, secretly pregnant, and worried about her best friend's dangerous relationship. In an effort to cheer herself up she goes in search of her birth mother. Instead she finds Nikki, her mother's sister. Aunt Nikki isn't what Margo expects, and she brings upsetting news: Margo's mother is dead. Worse, she was murdered years ago, and her killer is still at large—and sending Nikki threatening letters. Margo is torn. Should she stay out of this mess, or try to find justice? But then Margo receives a letter, too. Someone out there has been waiting and watching, and in Margo sees the spitting image of her mother . . . Darkly funny and deeply affecting, The Less Dead is a sharply modern new thriller from the bestselling author of Conviction, and a surprisingly moving story of daughters and mothers, secrets and choices, and how the search for the truth—and a long-hidden killer—will lead one woman to find herself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this witty and romantic debut novel, Jane Austen’s Emma meets the misadventures of Manhattan’s modern dating scene as two lifelong friends discover that, in the search for love, you sometimes don’t have to look any further than your own backyard. Beautiful, clever, and rich, Emma Woodhouse has lived twenty-three years in her tight-knit Upper East Side neighborhood with very little to distress or vex her…that is, until her budding matchmaking hobby results in her sister’s marriage—and subsequent move downtown. Now, with her sister gone and all her friends traveling abroad, Emma must start her final year of grad school grappling with an entirely new emotion: boredom. So when she meets Nadine, a wide-eyed Ohio transplant with a heart of gold and drugstore blonde highlights to match, Emma not only sees a potential new friend but a new project. If only her overbearing neighbor George Knightley would get out of her way. Handsome, smart, and successful, the only thing that frustrates Knightley more than a corked whiskey is his childhood friend, Emma. Whether it’s her shopping sprees between classes or her revolving door of ill-conceived hobbies, he is only too happy to lecture her on all the finer points of adulthood she’s so hell-bent on ignoring. But despite his gripes—and much to his own chagrin—Knightley can’t help but notice that the girl next door is a woman now…one who he suddenly can’t get out of his head. As Emma’s best laid plans collide with everyone from hipster baristas to meddling family members to flaky playboy millionaires, these two friends slowly realize their need to always be right has been usurped by a new need entirely, and it’s not long before they discover that even the most familiar stories still have some surprises.

A true delight.” —Nicola Harrison, author of Hotel Laguna Washington Post Best Book of April * PureWow Best Book of Summer It’s 1961, and for Margo Hightower, everything is about to change.

Until she finds herself entangled in a complicated web of loyalties and secrets that could bring it all crashing down…
Download or read book SECRETS AND LIES written by Marci Martin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-01-31 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first of the Hannah Pryce series, the protagonist is a newspaper columnist who teaches creative writing to San Diego prison inmates. She is a police detective's widow with two grown children, and a recovering alcoholic. Befriended by her husband's ex-partner, Dave Mayfield, she is drawn into the murder of a prominent actress, Margo Keene. It appears that Margo was stabbed while in a bubble bath, but the Medical Examiner discovers she died from an unidentified poisonous gas. Mayfield and his partner, Rayburn, question Margo's husband, Victor, who implicates the theater prop man (who is killed in jail the next night). Liz Parker, the theater wardrobe mistress, dies from the same poisonous gas. No apparent motive can be found for any of these three murders. At Dave's suggestion, Hannah interviews the suspects for her newspaper column to gain insights into possible motives. Actress Polly Phillips resents Margo for snooping into her private affairs. Suzanne Langley hates Margo because of her long time affair with her husband. Walt Langley loved Margo and suspects she knew too much about Victor's business dealings. Victor seems the grieving husband, but Hannah believes otherwise. Gerda Wilhem, Margo's maid, appears devoted to Margo, but Hannah believes her to be hiding secrets as well. The investigation proves that Victor and Polly Phillips are involved in drug trafficking and money laundering. Gerda Wilhem and her "live-in" friend, Frederick Schmidt, are Polly Phillips' parents with access to the poisonous gas formula. When Hannah seems too close to the truth, Frederick Schmidt attempts to force her car off the road and kill her. When this fails, he kidnaps her and forces her into a drunken stupor for four days. She regains consciousness in a deserted hanger on the Mexican border. Frederick and Polly are there, planning to kill her. Hannah goads Polly into a confession of the murders. While left alone, she calls Dave Mayfield on an airplane radio. He arrives with officers and the DEA. After Hannah safely escapes, the police open fire, killing Polly and Frederick. Safe with Dave, Hannah ponders their life together. "Another cop?" she says. "Why would I want to do that . . . again?"
