Publisher's Summary:

Сара Никерсон, работающая мать троих детей, хочет успеть все — и она успевает! Но вся ее жизнь, распланированная по минутам, меняется в мгновение ока... После аварии у женщины оказывается даже слишком много свободного времени. Последствия травмы на медицинском языке называются односторонним пространственным игнорированием — для пациента с синдромом игнорирования 'не существует' левой стороны пространства. Теперь самое главное — научиться воспринимать мир заново, а для этого нужна огромная внутренняя работа. Саре приходится переоценить и свои возможности, и отношения с близкими, переосмыслить суть многих вещей и понятий. И она находит в себе мужество признать: на самом деле вполне можно игнорировать то, что раньше казалось таким важным, и быть счастливой даже в самых трудных обстоятельствах.

Una ambiciosa mujer, Marya Aleksandrovna Moskalyova, intenta casar a su hija Zina, de veintitrés años y a la que ya se considera demasiado mayor para estar soltera, con un príncipe al que Dostoyevski identifica por la inicial «K», un anciano, familiar lejano, que pasa por el pueblo en el que ellas viven tras haber volcado su carruaje, para que le asistan en su casa. Entre las razones que explican por qué Zina no se ha casado todavía, una de las principales parece ser el siniestro rumor sobre ciertas extrañas relaciones que tuvo hace año y medio con un pobre maestro de escuela del distrito, rumor que aún se oye hoy día. En El sueño del príncipe, encontramos muchos de los temas que obsesionaban a Dostoyevski la exploración de la vida rusa y de los motivos ocultos y de las maniobras psicológicas que están tras el comportamiento humano, tratados, en este caso, con un gran sentido del humor.

Title: The Four Corners of the Heart: An Unfinished Novel

Author: Françoise Sagan

Narrator: Caroline Hewitt

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 1 minute

Release date: June 20, 2023

Genres: Literary Fiction

Publisher's Summary:

From the internationally bestselling author of Bonjour Tristesse comes the surprise publication of a novel she never finished—and a story that evokes her greatest works. French literary star Françoise Sagan was just eighteen when she published her first bestseller, Bonjour Tristesse, in 1954. Decades later, this short novel surfaced: an unfinished manuscript that wittily dissects the romantic lives of its bourgeois characters. The glamorous Marie-Laure never expected her wealthy older husband to survive a devastating car accident that left him in a fragile mental and physical condition. But three years later, Ludovic Cresson returns home to the family estate and finds himself in the throes of a tumultuous marriage. Overseeing this tense dynamic is Henri, the patriarch, who wants to see his son recover but detests various members of his own family. When Marie-Laure’s mother visits the estate, the family equilibrium falters spectacularly. As Ludovic’s virility returns, he cannot resist the charms of his mother-in-law—and neither can his father. The story ends abruptly, but it offers a vivid, if open ended, look into some of Sagan’s final undiscovered characters.

Winner of the Mao Dun Literature Prize. From one of China’s most celebrated authors comes a masterful novel about modernity and tradition, love and obsession, and economic change and quixotic dreams—all set against the backdrop of a rapidly urbanizing China. In post–Cultural Revolution China, in the fading village of Freshwind, the fates of two households are shifting. The Bais, once the most powerful family in the region, have fallen from status. Their beautiful daughter, Snow Bai, an embodiment of tradition, pursues a career in a vanishing art form. The Xias, enthusiastic members of the Party, are on the rise. Their favorite son, Wind Xia, is a citified politician whose marriage to Snow Bai could unite the two families. But in a village casting about for a new road to prosperity, fortunes can change. Watching it all unfold is a local outcast named Spark. The inveterate busybody is given to strange visions and flights of fancy, and is motivated by the only constant in Freshwind: his mad love for Snow Bai. Expansive, funny, monumental, and deeply poignant, Jia Pingwa’s The Shaanxi Opera is a keenly observant portrait of China in an era of globalization, societal upheaval, and the growing influence of popular culture.

Length: 8 hours 57 minutes

Release date: May 2, 2023

Genres: Literary Fiction

Publisher's Summary:

An orphaned boy raised by a survivalist wends his way into the real world in an emotional novel about hope, fears, and found family by New York Times bestselling author Catherine Ryan Hyde. Out there is chaos, the collapse of society, and so much to be afraid of. All that matters is freedom. That’s what Remy Blake has been taught by his survivalist father. Raised off the grid in the middle of nowhere, his own survival skills not yet honed, Remy is days shy of his eighth birthday when his father unexpectedly dies. As seasons pass, supplies run out, and fending for himself grows more desperate, Remy sets out on foot, unprepared for the great unknown of civilization. He is found—near feral, silent, and terrified—in the small rural town of Blaire. To Anne, a nurturing mother of two adopted teenagers who’s still dealing with her own childhood rejections, Remy is not a lost cause. Just a challenging one. As Remy cautiously adapts to his new foster home, his family wants nothing more than to reassure him that he can trust the world. But to do so, they must first reexamine how much they trust the world themselves, and how much they should. As Remy’s journey into the real world begins, figuring out how to navigate it becomes a path they will have to learn to walk together.
