Vencedor do Booker Prize de 2022, As sete luas de Maali Almeida se passa entre os vivos e os mortos durante a guerra civil no Sri Lanka. Ao criar um universo exuberante, Shehan Karunatilaka satiriza a realidade política de seu país e traz reflexões surpreendentes sobre as mais profundas questões humanas. Colombo, Sri Lanka, 1990. Maali Almeida descobre da pior maneira possível que existe vida após a morte: ele acorda no Interstício, um lugar cheio de almas confusas e perdidas. Nessa espécie de purgatório, ele descobre que foi assassinado e que seu corpo desmembrado está afundando no Lago Beira, mas não faz ideia de quem o matou. Numa época em que o acerto de contas é feito por esquadrões da morte, capangas e homens-bombas, a lista de suspeitos é enorme. Maali era fotógrafo de guerra, viciado em apostas e, apesar de ter se relacionado com muitos homens, nunca se assumiu gay. Antes de morrer, ele tirou fotos que poderiam abalar o seu país e as guardou em envelopes, cada um representado por uma carta de baralho. Para que a morte dele não seja em vão, ele precisa entrar em contato com as pessoas que ama, guiá-las até o esconderijo das fotografias e dar sua cartada final. Só tem um problema: se ele quiser ir para a Luz, precisa fazer isso antes da sétima lua. As sete luas de Maali Almeida é um romance cheio de fantasia e realidade. Shehan Karunatilaka, um dos autores mais proeminentes do Sri Lanka, usa seu humor mordaz e transforma os leitores em testemunhas da brutalidade da guerra civil no país. Ao vagarmos com Maali pelo além, somos confrontados com verdades perturbadoras sobre a vida e a morte. "Um livro que fervilha de energia, imagens e ideias num pano de fundo panorâmico e surreal da guerra civil do Sri Lanka." — Jurados do Booker Prize "Repleto de humor e páthos, As sete luas de Maali Almeida remete à sagacidade feroz e ao surrealismo de O mestre e Margarida, de Bulgákov." — The Guardian "Enquanto seu país enfrenta sua maior crise, um escritor produz um de seus maiores romances, um livro maravilhoso sobre o Sri Lanka, a amizade, o luto e a vida após a morte." — New European "Sua fantasia sobrenatural produz momentos verdadeiramente pungentes." — The Telegraph "Karunatilaka retorna com mais uma sátira impactante. As sete luas de Maali Almeida é mordaz, genial e brilhante." — The Economist

Obsessão fatal é um thriller de tirar o fôlego, repleto de mistério e sedução, e a primeira colaboração entre os veteranos Tess Gerritsen e Gary Braver. Taryn Moore era uma estudante universitária linda e inteligente, com um futuro brilhante pela frente. Que motivos ela poderia ter para se jogar da sacada de seu apartamento, num mergulho para a morte? O corpo sem vida mal havia acabado de ser removido da calçada pela perícia quando a detetive Frankie Loomis chega à casa da jovem para investigar aquela fatalidade. Mas, em poucos minutos, seu instinto lhe diz que há muito mais por trás daquele aparente suicídio. Conforme a investigação avança, Frankie descobre que muita gente gostaria que Taryn saísse de cena por um tempo — ou até morresse. O ex-namorado Liam não aguentava mais as investidas dela para que os dois retomassem o relacionamento; o professor de literatura Jack Dorian, que não está na melhor fase de seu casamento, havia caído nos encantos da aluna mais brilhante e bela de sua classe; o amigo fiel Cody Atwood simplesmente a venerava, era capaz de fazer qualquer coisa por ela, mas não estava gostando nada dos olhares que sua musa trocava com o professor preferido. A admiração mútua entre discípula e mestre era visível em sala de aula e estava começando a incomodar outras alunas também... À medida que Frankie vai desvendando como a mente de Taryn funcionava e descobrindo segredos de todos ligados a ela, fica cada vez mais claro que Jack pode estar escondendo a verdade por trás da morte de Taryn. Ele acabou se deixando levar pelos encantos da jovem, mas será que seria capaz de cometer um assassinato? "Dois autores de thriller experientes que ainda têm truques na manga." — Toronto Star "Em Obsessão fatal Tess Gerritsen e Gary Braver analisam como diferentes pessoas reagem depois de terem sido traídas e abandonadas." — Bookreporter "Com personagens intrigantes e várias reviravoltas, este livro é altamente recomendado para fãs de Tess Gerritsen e Gary Braver e para quem adora suspense." — Library Journal "Um thriller eletrizante do início ao fim, que faz com que o leitor fique tentando adivinhar o que aconteceu." — Mystery & Suspense Magazine

Who is Malinda Albert Kabalana? How did he die? Renegade war photographer Maali Almeida has to solve his own murder. Does that sound fun? It would be if there wasn't so much bloody red-tape to get through. Oh and it's not as though anyone alive actually seems to miss him, and it certainly doesn't help that his girlfriend is related to his boyfriend. Worst of all, it's all those goddamn memories of war, constantly interrupted by the overly chatty dead folks breezing through the afterlife. Besides, he's so busy solving his ethical dilemmas that there's barely any time to solve a murder-even if it's his own. A compulsively readable dark comedy of life-death and everything in between-Chats with the Dead searingly exposes the plight of a country caught in the aftermath of civil war. Its deliciously compelling absurdity holds you in thrall right from the very first page up to its startling denouement, constantly upending its own premise with its staggering humanity. Shehan Karunatilaka has delivered a classic whodunit with a brilliant twist.

The 1997 novel that put Horacio Castellanos Moya on the map, now published for the first time in English An expatriate professor, Vega, returns from exile in Canada to El Salvador for his mother’s funeral. A sensitive idealist and an aggrieved motor mouth, he sits at a bar with the author, Castellanos Moya, from five to seven in the evening, telling his tale and ranting against everything his country has to offer. Written in a single paragraph and alive with a fury as astringent as the wrath of Thomas Bernhard, Revulsion was first published in 1997 and earned its author death threats. Roberto Bolano called Revulsion Castellanos Moya’s darkest book and perhaps his best: “A parody of certain works by Bernhard and the kind of book that makes you laugh out loud.”
