Harvill Secker The Lovers Коньетти Паоло

From the author of international bestseller The Eight Mountains comes a story of love and community in the wild beauty of the Italian Alps • The remote alpine village of Fontana Fredda lives by the seasons.

He takes a job as chef in a little restaurant and entrusts himself to new beginnings • Silvia is also seeking change: her sights are on the glaciers where, she has read, climbing a thousand metres towards the sky is equivalent to travelling ten times the same distance to the north. She is in search of her personal North Pole • When Fausto and Silvia meet one night, their story begins: a tender story of love and renewal; of the community that sustains them; and of lives humbled by the implacable strength and beauty of the mountains

Harpercollins Ghosts from the Library. Lost Tales of Terror and the Supernatural Кристи Агата, Дойл Артур Конан, Дюморье Дафна

Затворите окна. Закройте шторы. Включите свет и не позволяйте ему погаснуть… • Считается, что книги пишутся лишь для того, чтобы скрасить наши серые будни. Они позволяют нам на пару часов сбежать в другие миры, где мы можем проживать сотни жизней так, как хочется нам. Однако далеко не все книги такие. Некоторые из них стоят на полках в самых дальних и темных уголках библиотек. Это истории о необъяснимых происшествиях, о потерянных душах и о внезапных криках, прерывающих ночную тишину • Такие истории порой имеют свойство просто…исчезать. Истории, напечатанные в старых газетах, зачитанные по радио, или вовсе никогда не публиковавшиеся…в конце концов преданные забвению • Ghost from the Library – это новая антология забытых рассказов о сверхъестественном за авторством одних из самых выдающихся писателей всех времен – от Артура Конан Дойла и Джона Диксона Карра до Агаты Кристи
