Story
Award-winning author and human rights activist Ishmael Beah brings us The Door to Tamba, a powerful story centered on a mining village in West Africa where the destruction of earth and pollution of life impacts the mind, body, and soul of communities. Hindolo, a storyteller, returns to his hometown after 30 years and recalls the solitary and formidable old man who opened his home to him and introduced a world of literature and imagination, which for many years, was his only escape. Hindolo begins writing the stories down on paper stolen from a nearby mine to share with his classmates.

Story
From Steven Millhauser, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Martin Dressler and one of the most imaginative and essential voices of our time, comes a fable about a race of miniature people and the way of life they have come master within our own. By turns enchanting and provocative, The Little People explores the fascination and unease the little people create in us, examines our private desire to disappear into their world, and reveals what happens when our personal and romantic lives inevitably collide.

Pronunciar el nombre de alguien lo mantiene vivo, le permite dar valor a su historia. Todos aquellos que tuvieron que huir de Europa del Este durante la primera mitad del siglo XX tienen una historia que merece ser contada. La vida se volvió imposible y aunque salir implicaba dejarlo todo: casa, bienes, ancestros, comidas, sabores, olores, canciones de cuna, idioma…todo, la opción era morir.

Story
Now that I have discovered what death is, I am overwhelmed by how long I have left to live... It is not a manner of speaking, nor is it a metaphor. My name is Oliver and until eight days ago I did not know that word and the weight of its meaning. No one had ever uttered that word around me. Furthermore, as far as I knew, no one had ever died. But knowing the term does not cover its immensity. Not then, not now. In Delos death does not exist. It is a model community in the north of the world, where there is no place for suffering, disease, or pain.

Magically quiet yet deeply satisfying, Macken in Love follows two middle-aged lovers who must navigate personal histories in search of the one thing that has evaded them both. Lonesome but loveable, 50-year-old Kevin Macken devotes his days to the Irish bakery he inherited from his parents. Once Juilliard-bound, Jill Novak has never recovered from the tragedy that derailed her promising career more than two decades ago. For two people who have all but given up on love, finding each other feels too good to be true.
