Story
When the teenage girl who's been hanging around near the house knocks on the door and tells her she's her granddaughter, Cassie is shocked rigid. There's only one way this can be true: if Evie is the daughter of the baby Cassie gave away for adoption when she was herself a troubled teenager. Is this a trick? Or is Evie's tale true? When she finds out why the girl has come to find her, it brings a tangle of other problems that she can't ignore. This was the last thing she expected to be dealing with as she moves into her new home in a leisure village in Wiltshire.

Story
Den sydkoreanske forfatter Han Kang fik tildelt den internationale Man Booker Pris 2016 for dette litterære mesterværk. Yeong-Hye og hendes mand er helt almindelige mennesker. Han arbejder på kontor, hun er en pligtopfyldende, men lidt uengageret husmor. Så tager Yeong-Hye en beslutning om at blive vegetar. "Jeg havde en drøm", lyder hendes eneste forklaring. Et umiddelbart uskyldigt valg, men ikke i Sydkorea, hvor omgivelserne synes det er chokerende og skamfuldt ikke at spise kød.

Story
La protagonista de Boulder és una dona atreta per la solitud com per un imant. Es guanya la vida fent de cuinera en un buc - la situació perfecta: una cabina, l'oceà, moltes hores per encarar el buit i algun port on conèixer dones. Fins que una la reté, se l'emporta entre les quatre parets d'una casa i l'embarca en la gestació assistida d'una criatura. ¿Què en farà, la maternitat, de l'amant coneguda en un bar? ¿I què farà ella a la gàbia? Dos anys després de Permagel i d'un viatge a través de mitja dotzena de llengües, l'obra de Baltasar torna a atracar entre nosaltres amb una heroïna com només sap crear-les ella.

Story
Eine Geschichte über die Liebe, wie nur Gabriel García Márquez sie schreiben konnte. Jedes Jahr fährt Ana Magdalena Bach im August mit der Fähre zu einer Karibikinsel, um dort auf das Grab ihrer Mutter einen Gladiolenstrauß zu legen. Jedes Jahr geht sie danach in ein Touristenhotel und isst abends allein an der Bar ein Käse-Schinken-Toast. Dieses Mal jedoch wird sie von einem Mann zu einem Drink eingeladen. Es entspricht weder ihrer Herkunft oder Erziehung noch ihrer Vorstellung von ehelicher Treue, doch geht sie dennoch auf seine Avancen ein und nimmt den Unbekannten mit auf ihr Zimmer.

From the best-selling author of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, a ghost story, a psychological thriller and a tale of love rediscovered. Elizabeth has been married to Michael for ten years. She has adjusted to a fairly monotonous routine with her wealthy, decent but boring husband. Part of this routine involves occasional visits to Beinn Caorrun, the dank and gloomy house in a Scottish glen that Michael inherited. There are memories there that Michael will not share with her. But then Michael begins to change. It starts when he thinks he sees, in a picture, the figure of a girl on a landing.
