JapanDescription:
"The novella that first propelled Dazai into the literary elite of post-war Japan. Essentially the start of Dazai's career, Schoolgirl gained notoriety for its ironic and inventive use of language. Now it illuminates the prevalent social structures of a lost time, as well as the struggle of the individual against them--a theme that occupied Dazai's life both personally and professionally. This new translation preserves the playful language of the original and offers the reader a new window into the mind of one of the greatest Japanese authors of the 20th century"--Page 4 of cover.

Description:
Traducere de Vali Florescu Cărțile scriitoarei britanice Jeanette Winterson sunt publicate în peste 35 de țări. „De ce măsura iubirii este pierderea ei?" Așa începe un roman frumos ca o scrisoare de dragoste, în care protagoniștii se caută, se găsesc într-o noapte ploioasă, se iubesc nebunește și în cele din urmă rătăcesc iremediabil drumul unul spre celălalt. Pe ea o cheamă Louise. Are păr prerafaelit și pielea albă ca laptele. Dar persoana pe care o iubește și care-i așterne pe hârtie povestea n-are nici nume, nici chip, nici sex. Însă dragostea nu cunoaște astfel de îngrădiri. E, așa cum de... continue

Sculptor's Daughter by Tove Jansson EN
FinlandDescription:
Tove Jansson's first book for adults drew on her childhood memories to capture afresh the enchantments and fears of growing up in Helsinki in the nineteen tens and twenties. Described as both a memoir and 'a book of superb stories' by Ali Smith, her startlingly evocative prose offers a glimpse of the mysteries of winter ice, the bonhomie of balalaika parties, and the vastness of Christmas viewed from beneath the tree.
