Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1920, three ships steamed into the port of Famagusta in the British colony of Cyprus with sick and wounded officers and men of the White Russian army, together with their families and other civilians fleeing the victorious Bolsheviks at the end of the Civil War, which had raged through the country after the 1917 Russian Revolution. Britain had offered transport and temporary sanctuary in its nearest territory. 1,546 desperate men, women, and children from two of the ships were housed in a WWI Turkish prisoner-of-war camp to wait for other countries to offer asylum; the other ship sailed on to Egypt and another camp. In Cyprus, some died and some moved on, but a group of about seventy saw opportunities for a new life on the island. They formed the core of a Russian community which attracted other migrs over the decades but whose story is largely unknown or forgotten, even on the island. One of them was the authors grandfather. The author has tracked down official documents and historical sources and interwoven them with her own notes and diaries to tell her personal and human account of a Russian family in Cyprus, through three generations and fifty years of dramatic events.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A librarian with deceptively dangerous skills is sent back in time to Tzarist Russia in this “laugh-out-loud farce” and homage to Muriel Spark (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Never underestimate a librarian. Comfortable padded and in her middle years, Shona McMonagle may look bookish and harmless, but her education at the Marcia Blaine School for Girls has left her with a deadly expertise in everything from martial arts to quantum physics. It has also left her with a bone-deep loathing for The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, that scurrilous novel that spread scandalous untruths about the finest educational institution in Edinburgh. Shona’s skills, her deceptively mild appearance, and her passionate loyalty make her the perfect recruit for an interesting new project: time travel to Tzarist Russia, prevent a gross miscarriage of romance, and—in any spare time—see to it that only the right people get murdered. It’s a big job, but no task is too daunting for a prefect from Miss Blaine’s. “A delightful addition to the ranks of comic crime.” —The Guardian, UK

Book excerpt: «[...] el día en que el criminal apareció en mi puerta llevando un samovar en la mano, supe que el destino era irreductible. Fue ahí cuando le di la estocada.» En un soleado departamento de la Ciudad de México, habitan tres ancianas: la bobe Anna, la tutta Lena y Modesta, todas ellas sobrevivientes de lo imposible. De pronto, un día, alguien llega a comer. Tatiana ha hecho un pacto bajo las jacarandascon su abuela. Una historia está esperando. El viejo samovar oxidado, perdido en el tiempo, se enciende. La estufa crepita. El aire entra con un vendaval de naufragios y polvaredas, chales bordados, tardes, furias, siestas, y criminales de amores duplicados en el tiempo que resucitan. El samovar funciona como aquella magdalena en la que los recuerdos, los amores, el aprendizaje de saber de dónde viene una, se van entretejiendo con estas maravillosas voces que pintan los lienzos en los que Tatiana se irá reconstruyendo. ¿Es posible describir qué se siente recobrar un idioma que se creyó perdido? Y con ese idioma, un mundo; con ese mundo, el propio mundo. Ethel Krauze, con indiscutible maestría y musicalidad en el lenguaje, nos invita a pasear por esa Rusia previa a la Segunda Guerra Mundial, por aquel México lleno de posibilidades, y por la vida de tres mujeres que fueron semilla. La crítica dice: «Sin lugar a dudas, Ethel representa a una generación de escritoras que deciden dejar de ser las musas inspiradoras y objeto del deseo para convertirse en la voz potente que canta al cuerpo amado, al placer carnal, a su propio cuerpo y sus deseos.» Dra. Ma. de los Ángeles Silvina Manzano «Antes que un argumento, Ethel Krauze persigue una forma. De ahí que los cuentos de El fragmento impertinente procuren la apariencia de una estatua en mitad de una sala vacía, o de una dilatada metáfora que nace de una inmensa red especulativa, o de un gesto congelado en el tiempo.» Roberto Pliego, Milenio «El fragmento impertinente de Ethel Krauze me hizo vibrar, despertó mis sentidos; me hizo reflexionar y volver a mirarme, me hizo despertar al deseo, ése que nunca quisiera perder. ¿Cómo puede una autora dar tanto en tan pocas páginas? Descúbranlo por sí mismos y guarden el fragmento cerca de la cama, como libro de cabecera, en el buró, esperando ser abierto cada noche o cada amanecer.» Victoria Dana «Posee virtudes raras veces encontradas en la actual literatura mexicana, y definitorias, al mismo tiempo, de la literatura japonesa: sutileza y tersura.» Eve Gil (sobre El país de las mandrágoras)
