Un nuovo anno sta per concludersi e Asle, un anziano pittore rimasto vedovo, ripensa alla sua storia. L'uomo vive da solo sulla costa norvegese, i suoi unici amici sono il suo vicino, Åsleik, un contadino-pescatore scapolo, e Beyer, un gallerista che vive in città, a un paio d'ore di auto. Lì vive anche un altro Asle, artista anch'egli, solitario e consumato dall'alcool. Asle e Asle sono due versioni della stessa persona, due racconti della stessa vita, che si interrogano sull'esistenza, la morte, l'ombra e la luce, la fede e la disperazione.

He’s a talented footballer who wanted to be an artist. A gay man in a sport that rejects diversity.

Story
Wie weit gehst du für diejenigen, die du liebst? Zwei Dinge hat Camden Daniels sich für seine Rückkehr in seine Heimatstadt Alba in Colorado vorgenommen: Er wird seinem kranken Vater die medizinische Behandlung ermöglichen, die dieser sich wünscht. Und er wird seine Kindheitsliebe Willow auf Abstand halten – die Frau, die er schon immer geliebt hat, die er aufgrund der Vergangenheit aber nicht lieben darf. Willow ist allerdings ganz und gar nicht gewillt, sich von Camden fernzuhalten.

Story
Nell and her partner Adrienne are about to have a baby. For Adrienne, it’s the start of a new life. For Nell, it’s the reason the two of them are sitting in a therapist’s office. Because she can’t go into this without dealing with the truth: that she has been a mother before, and now she can hardly bring herself to speak to her own mother, let alone return home to Ireland. Nell is running out of places to hide from her past. But to Ireland and the past is where she must go, and that is where The Amendments takes us.

Story
Moira O'Donnell c'est, derrière le feu des boucles rousses et l'énergie inépuisable, une femme qui lutte pour garder la tête hors de l'eau. C'est une vie d'adulte démarrée trop tôt. Ce sont trois gamins livrés à eux-mêmes et autant de boulots cumulés pour les nourrir. Ce sont des pères absents : le premier, incarcéré le plus longtemps possible, croit-elle, et le second, suicidé. C'est une culpabilité sans fin. Moira O'Donnell, c'est la solitude d'une mère de famille dure au mal qui se bat, tombe et renaît. Pour ses enfants. Et avec eux. À la vie, à la mort.

Story
Sie will ein ganz normales Leben führen. Er will in die Elite Oslos aufsteigen. Früher war Ellinor Skogen ein Geist. Falscher Name, keine Social-Media-Accounts, abgeschottetes Eliteinternat. Einzig ihr bester Freund Lucas gab ihr ein Gefühl von Normalität - und dieses Kribbeln im Bauch. Bis er herausfindet, dass sie die Erbin des führenden Osloer Keksunternehmens KOSGEN ist und den Kontakt abbricht. Heute, fast sechs Jahre später, trifft sie an ihrem ersten Arbeitstag dort unter verdeckter Identität ausgerechnet auf Lucas. Doch statt sie zu verraten, schlägt er ihr einen Deal vor.

Story
Una novela tan extraordinaria como la peripecia de sus protagonistas. En el año 2011, el narrador de esta novela y su familia llegaron, de un modo azaroso, a una vivienda casi en ruinas situada en un pequeño pueblo del sur de España. Un acuerdo con el propietario les permitiría hacer uso de ella mientras él encontraba financiación para construir allí unos apartamentos. Era solo cuestión de tiempo que la casa fuera derribada. Sin embargo, durante los años siguientes, pasaron largos periodos en ella, reparándola con sus propias manos, transformándola en un acogedor lugar de encuentro y celebración.

Story
Quando un giovane uomo viene ritrovato privo di sensi a St Piran, in Cornovaglia, gli abitanti del piccolo paese sono perplessi. Chi è costui, e come è arrivato fin lì? E che dire della balena che il giorno dopo si arena proprio davanti alla stessa spiaggia? Presto capiamo che il giovane, Joe Haak, è un analista finanziario, i cui studi non hanno portato agli esiti auspicati, e ha deciso di buttarsi in mare, dove viene salvato dalla stessa balena che lui salverà il giorno dopo. Eppure, quando scoppia il primo caso di influenza in Asia, Joe saprà esattamente che cosa sta succedendo.
