Riusciranno a riportare indietro l'uovo e a sconfiggere i pirati?

'De jongen, de mol, de vos en het paard' van Charlie Mackesy is een prachtig verhaal over vriendschap, liefde en jezelf zijn, poëtisch vertaald door Arthur Japin.

Een moderne klassieker, die je kijk op het leven verandert.

Todd Hewitt is de laatste jongen in Prentisstown. Een unieke stad, want in Prentisstown klinkt continu het overheersende, schreeuwende geluid van gedachten. Alles wat leeft denkt hardop. Ook de dieren. Ook Todd. Dat is de dagelijkse orde: je kunt er niet aan ontsnappen. Er is geen privacy. Er zijn geen geheimen. Tenminste, dat denkt Todd. Een maand voordat hij een man zal worden, stuit hij onverwacht op… stilte. Hij dacht dat dat onmogelijk was. Maar Prentisstown heeft gelogen. En met die wetenschap slaat Todd op de vlucht…

When a baby escapes a murderer intent on killing the entire family, who would have thought it would find safety and security in the local graveyard? Bod has an eccentric childhood learning about life from the dead. But for Bod there is also the danger of the murderer still looking for him - after all, he is the last remaining member of the family. A stunningly original novel deftly constructed over eight chapters, featuring every second year of Bod's life, from babyhood to adolescence. Will Bod survive to be a man?

A sinister jack-in-the box haunts the lives of children who owned it, a stray cat does nightly battle to protect his adopted family, and a boy raised in a graveyard confronts the much more troubled world of the living in this wonderful book of short stories.

Oceane likes to travel but never goes out. She brings the world into her home via satellite, the Internet and passing foreigners. Tibor Fischer's novel is about what can be known, what evil looks like, why ketchup is important and how Lambeth Council was rated one of the worst.

Haunted is a novel made up of twenty-three horrifying, hilarious, and stomach-churning stories. They’re told by people who have answered an ad for a writer’s retreat and unwittingly joined a “Survivor”-like scenario where the host withholds heat, power, and food. As the storytellers grow more desperate, their tales become more extreme, and they ruthlessly plot to make themselves the hero of the reality show that will surely be made from their plight. This is one of the most disturbing and outrageous books you’ll ever read, one that could only come from the mind of Chuck Palahniuk.
