Pregnant at fifteen after gleefully losing her virginity to pansexual neighborhood strongman Francis Anthony Mozzarelli, she is robbed of her baby by a pack of nefarious nuns and her embittered papa has her sterilized without her consent (legal in 1935). With the help of a besotted Francis and her top-secret meatball recipe, a devastated Bella embarks on a riotous quest through Depression-era Coney Island sideshows, the tawdry world of peek-a-boo striptease routines, a queer mob marriage, and a tasty collection of wisdom-filled recipes to find her lost child, herself, and maybe even true love.

I racconti di Ben Okri, vincitore del Booker Prize, mescolano diversi piani di realtà, sempre in bilico fra oscurità e magia. Storie irriverenti, incredibili, a volte divertenti altre sconvolgenti, ambientate a Londra, a Bisanzio, nel ghetto, sulle Ande, e in altri luoghi noti ma misteriosi, con protagonisti diversi che abbracciano una molteplicità di personaggi umani, e non solo. Ben Okri si dimostra un autore all’apice della sua potenza espressiva, che padroneggia sapientemente il mezzo del racconto per far ridere il lettore, per farlo pensare, per fargli ribaltare completamente il punto di vista su ciò che lo circonda.

But immortality is a heavy burden, and Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos are captivated by the gloriously human lives of the mortals below, especially those of the great warrior Atalanta and her ill-fated lover, Meleager. However, being a Goddess of Fate doesn't make you a master of it. Will these three sisters find a way to free the couple, and themselves, from their destinies? Or will they be bound by Fate forever?

Love, be it wild or tender, often defies logic. In fact, at times, the only rationale behind the instant connection of two souls is plain magic. Bibiña Aranda, runaway bride, wakes up in the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao still wearing her wedding dress, draped in the loving arms of a naked man whose name she doesn’t know. She and the man with no clothes, Indar Zubieta, attempt to explain to the authorities how they got there. It’s a story of love at first sight and experience beyond compare, one that involves a dreamlike journey through the museum.

Story
Los Angeles brims with opportunity in 1959—though not for aspiring fashion designer Cordelia Mai Yin, the first-generation child of Vietnamese immigrants, who finds the city unkind to outsiders and as dispirited as her own family. When Cordi rents a cheap loft in an old apartment building, she quickly warms to kindred souls Tessa, Audrey, and Silly. They also want better things and have pasts they’d rather forget. That they all share the same middle name makes their friendship seem like destiny.

Story
In the mid-1800s, Saint, an enigmatic and powerful conjure woman, always flanked by a silent companion, travels the South annihilating plantations and liberating the enslaved by means of purposeful violence and powerful magic. She founds a town for those she has freed–and for them alone. They name the town Ours. Surrounded by an impenetrable magical border raised by Saint's powers, Ours is invisible to the outer world and sits blissfully away from prying eyes and violent hands. Saint's mission is to kill slavery–to scourge its damage from the minds of her charges and to keep them safe forever.

Story
Полли забыла, все забыла... Пять долгих и удивительных лет дружбы с Томом, их переписку, истории, которые они сочиняли вместе и которые почему-то оказывались правдой, головокружительные приключения, встречи и разлуки, радости и обиды, угрозы его родных, настаивавших, чтобы они перестали встречаться... и то, как она сама согласилась забыть его. Но самое странное, об этом забыли все окружающие. Будто кто-то стер все, что было, вычеркнул из жизни Полли, подменил память скучной фальшивкой. Даже книга, которую Том подарил ей, загадочным образом преобразилась: одни рассказы исчезли, другие словно кто-то переписал.
