Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Ann Patchett just gets better and better . With more than a nod to Henry James , The Dutch House is quietly devastating, often mysterious and rather beautiful in its effortlessly readable melancholy Observer Longlisted for the Women's Prize 2020 *The Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller and a Book of the Year 2019* Selected as Book of the Year in The Times, Guardian, Daily Telegraph, Washington Post, Herald and Good Housekeeping A heart-wrenching new novel of the unbreakable bond between a brother and sister, their childhood home, and a past that will not let them go from the Number One New York Times bestselling author of Bel Canto and Commonwealth 'Do you think its possible to ever see the past as it actually was? I asked my sister. We were sitting in her car, parked in front of the Dutch House in the broad daylight of early summer. In the economic boom following the Second World War, Cyril Conroy's real estate investments take his family from poverty to enormous wealth. With it he buys the Dutch House, a lavish mansion in the Philadelphia suburbs. Meant as a surprise for his wife, the house sets in motion the undoing of everyone he loves. Danny Conroy grows up in the opulence of the Dutch House. Though his father is distant and his mother is absent, Danny has his beloved sister Maeve: Maeve, with her wall of black hair, her wit, her brilliance. The siblings grow and change as life plays out under the watchful eyes of the houses former owners, in the frames of their oil paintings. Then one day their father brings home Andrea, a new stepmother. Though they cannot know it, her arrival to the Dutch House sows the seed of the defining loss of Danny and Maeves lives: exiled from the house and tossed back into the poverty from which their family rose, Danny and Maeve have only each other to count on. Told across the decades with Ann Patchetts inimitable blend of humour, rage and heartbreak, The Dutch House is a book for our times; of family, love, loss, and the powerful bonds of place and time that magnetize and repel us for our whole lives. _____ Reviews for The Dutch House: 'The book of the autumn Her finest novel yet Sunday Times A wonderful hypnotic masterpiece of a novel. The best book Ive read in years Rosamund Lupton What a spectacular novel. A masterpiece, Id say Cathy Rentzenbrink Indelibly poignant Observer One of my top favourite contemporary writers. There isnt a book of hers that I havent put down at the end and been haunted by for weeks after Gillian Anderson The buzz around The Dutch House is totally justified. Her best yet, which is saying something John Boyne. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Despues de impresionar a mas de once millones de lectores con la estremecedora historia de El nino con el pijama de rayas, John Boyne regresa en Todas las piezas rotas al mundo de su novela mas famosa para contar que ocurrio con la familia del pequeno Bruno al final de la guerra. En esta ocasion, a traves del viaje de Gretel, su hermana mayor, desde el Paris de 1946 hasta el Londres de hoy, en busca de un lugar en el que confiar el peso de su terrible pasado. A punto de cumplir noventa y dos anos, Gretel Fernsby ha vivido durante decadas en un piso de Winterville Court, un lujoso bloque de apartamentos con vistas a Hyde Park, donde lleva una vida desahogada y tranquila pese a una historia oscura e inquietante que no deja de atormentarla No habla con nadie de su huida de la Alemania nazi hace mas de siete decadas en compania de su madre, ni de la tragica desaparicion de su hermano, ni mucho menos de su padre, comandante de uno de los campos de concentracion mas notorios del Reich. Cuando el productor de cine Alex Darcy-Witt, un hombre dominante y abusivo, y su esposa Madelyn se mudan al piso de abajo, Gretel acaba haciendose amiga de Henry, el hijo de nueve anos de la pareja, aunque su presencia le hace recordar antiguos sucesos que preferiria haber olvidado. Hasta que punto la culpa de un padre monstruoso alcanza a sus hijos? La culpa y la complicidad tienen muchas caras. John Boyne es un maestro de la ficcion historica: es imposible estar preparado para la magnitud y el impacto emocional de esta novela. John IrvingENGLISH DESCRIPTIONYou cant prepare yourself for the magnitude and emotional impact of this powerful novel. John Irving, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The World According to Garp Exceptional, layered and compellingThis book moves like a freight train. Amy Bloom, New York Times bestselling author of In Love From the New York Times bestselling author John Boyne, a devastating, beautiful story about a woman who must confront the sins of her own terrible past, and a present in which it is never too late for bravery. Ninety-one-year-old Gretel Fernsby has lived in the same well-to-do mansion block in London for decades. She lives a quiet, comfortable life, despite her deeply disturbing, dark past. She doesnt talk about her escape from Nazi Germany at age 12. She doesnt talk about the grim post-war years in France with her mother. Most of all, she doesnt talk about her father, who was the commandant of one of the Reichs most notorious extermination camps. Then, a new family moves into the apartment below her. In spite of herself, Gretel cant help but begin a friendship with the little boy, Henry, though his presence brings back memories she would rather forget. One night, she witnesses a disturbing, violent argument between Henrys beautiful mother and his arrogant father, one that threatens Gretels hard-won, self-contained existence. All The Broken Places moves back and forth in time between Gretels girlhood in Germany to present-day London as a woman whose life has been haunted by the past. Now, Gretel faces a similar crossroad to the one she encountered long ago. Back then, she denied her own complicity, but now, faced with a chance to interrogate her guilt, grief and remorse, she can choose to save a young boy. If she does, she will be forced to reveal the secrets she has spent a lifetime protecting. This time, she can make a different choice than beforewhatever the cost to herself."

Condition: Bueno. Eighty-year-old Georgy Jachmenchev is haunted by his past - a past of death, suffering and scandal that will stay with him until the end of his days. Living in England, with his beloved wife Zoya, Georgy prepares to make one final journey, back to the Russia he once knew and loved, the Russia that both destroyed and defined him. As Georgy remembers days gone by, we are transported on an exciting and emotive journey to St Petersburg in the early twentieth century, to the Winter Palace of the Tsar and his family. It was a time of change, threat and bloody revolution. And, as Georgy overturns the most painful stone of all, we uncover a truly horrifying story, the story of 'the house of special purpose', a so-called safe house that was in fact a place of confinement, destruction and death. Spanning over eighty years and moving from Russia to Paris to London, The House of Special Purpose is a sweeping, epic read from a truly accomplished author.EAN: 9780385616072 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Título: The House of Special PurposeAutor: John Boyne Editorial: Doubleday Peso: 558.
