Title: This Plague of Souls

Author: Mike Mccormack

Narrator: Dan Murphy

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 33 minutes

Release date: January 2, 2024

Genres: Psychological

Publisher's Summary:

The follow-up to Booker-listed literary sensation Solar Bones is a terse metaphysical thriller, named a most anticipated book of the year by The Guardian, The Irish Times, and The New Statesman.Nealon returns from prison to his house in the West of Ireland to find it empty. No heat or light, no sign of his wife or child. It is as if the world has forgotten or erased him. Then he starts getting calls from a man who claims to know what’s happened to his family—a man who’ll tell Nealon all he needs to know in return for a single meeting.In a hotel lobby, in the shadow of an unfolding terrorist attack, Nealon and the man embark on a conversation shot through with secrets and evasions, a verbal game of cat and mouse that leaps from Nealon’s past and childhood to the motives driving a series of international crimes launched against “a world so wretched it can only be redeemed by an act of revenge.” McCormack’s existential noir is a terse and brooding exploration of the connections between rural Ireland and the globalized cruelties of the twenty-first century. It is also an incisive portrait of a young and struggling family, and a ruthless interrogation of what we owe to those nearest to us, and to the world at large.

Title: Gone Tomorrow

Author: Gary Indiana

Narrator: Lee Osorio

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 8 hours 57 minutes

Release date: December 26, 2023

Genres: Psychological

Publisher's Summary:

Footloose and broke, the unnamed narrator of Gone Tomorrow hops on a plane without asking questions when his director friend offers him a role in a film set in Colombia. But from the moment he arrives at the airport in Bogotá, only to witness a policeman beat a beggar half to death, it becomes clear that this will not be the story of gritty bohemians triumphing against the odds. The director, Paul Grosvenor, seems more interested in manipulating his cast than in shooting film. The cult star, Irma Irma, is a vamp too bored and boring to draw blood. And the beautiful, nymph-like Michael Simard doesn't seem to be putting out. Meanwhile, the film's shady financier is sleeping with his mother, while a serial killer skulks about the area killing tourists. Everything comes to a head when the carnaval celebration begins. But once the fiesta is over, all that's left are ghostly memories and the narrator's insistence on telling the tale. 'Unlike the majority of pointedly AIDS-era novels,' writes Dennis Cooper, 'Gone Tomorrow is neither an amoral nostalgia fest nor a thinly veiled wake-up call hyping the religion of sobriety. It's a philosophical work devised by a writer who's both too intelligent to buy into the notion that a successful future requires the compromise of collective decision and too moral to accept bitterness as the consequence of an adventurous life.'

Publisher's Summary:

On the day author Mari Morgan receives the email, she has little left to live for. The message—simple yet utterly life-changing—offers a glimmer of hope to her dismal existence. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime, and if she takes it, it could change everything. Mari’s immediate sense of unease is eclipsed only by her curiosity—elicited from the supposed fan on the other end of the email. Unsatisfied despite doing her due diligence, and with no way to discern the legitimacy of the sender, Mari takes a leap of faith and replies. What harm could come from one innocent message? Soon, as she comes face to face with her ‘number one fan,’ it’s all too clear things are not what they first appeared. Now trapped by a villain far more sinister than she could’ve crafted herself, the fate awaiting her is inspired by the darkest depths of the monsters in her own novels. In order to escape and survive, Mari must use the strength of the heroines she’s spent years writing about. But this villain has spent years inside her worlds, too. How will she defeat an evil who has learned from the best? For fans of Misery, YOU, and Behind Closed Doors, million-copy bestselling author Kiersten Modglin brings us a haunting tale of obsession and survival in the form of a writer’s worst nightmare come to life.

Title: Lord Jim at Home

Author: Dinah Brooke

Narrator: Ottessa Moshfegh

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 55 minutes

Release date: December 19, 2023

Genres: Psychological

Publisher's Summary:

'A brilliant, chilling picture of the English middle class at home.' —Illustrated London News When Dinah Brooke's second novel, Lord Jim at Home, was first published in 1973, it was described as 'squalid and startling,' 'nastily horrific,' and a 'monstrous parody' of upper-middle class English life. It is the story of Giles Trenchard, who grows up isolated in an atmosphere of privilege and hidden violence; who goes to war, and returns; and then, one day—like the hero of Joseph Conrad's classic Lord Jim—commits an act that calls his past, his character, his whole world into question. Out of print for nearly half a century (and never published in the United States), Lord Jim at Home reveals a daring writer long overdue for reappraisal, whose work has retained all its originality and power. As Ottessa Moshfegh writes in her foreword to this new edition, Brooke evokes childhood vulnerability and adult cruelty 'in a way that nice people are too polite to admit they understand.'

Title: [Spanish] - Manual de pintura y caligrafía

Author: José Saramago

Narrator: Víctor Velasco

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 8 hours 22 minutes

Release date: December 7, 2023

Genres: Psychological

Publisher's Summary:

2022: AÑO SARAMAGO Una novela sobre la vida y el arte. Una reflexión sobre la escritura, la ética y el compromiso «“¿Quién es este hombre?”. Ésta es precisamente la pregunta que ningún pintor debe hacerse a sí mismo, y yo la hice». H., pintor de obras por encargo, acepta realizar un retrato de S., administrador de una poderosa compañía. Dolorosamente consciente de sus limitaciones como artista, de la mediocridad de sus telas y de la banalidad de la vidaque lleva, comienza a interrogarse sobre el sentido de su propia existencia, sus relaciones personales y sus debilidades estéticas. Como fruto de esta reflexión, H. empieza a realizar en secreto, en la intimidad de su taller, un segundo retrato de S. —menos convencional y, por tanto, más real—, al tiempo que decide escribir un diario que le ayuda a conocerse mejor a sí mismo. Este proceso de autodescubrimiento,que concluye simbólicamente con la caída del poder fascista en Portugal y el comienzo de la Revolución de los Claveles, lleva al protagonista a plantearse unos nuevos objetivos vitales, a descubrir el verdadero amor y, como consecuencia de todo ello, a conseguir su ansiada libertad como artista y como persona. Manual de pintura y caligrafía constituye una reflexión sobre el arte, la escritura, el papel de la crítica, el compromiso del ciudadano, la ética del intelectual y la mediocridad de la vida cotidiana. Endefinitiva, José Saramago nos ofrece una de las mejores novelas que se han escrito sobre la vida y el arte, la ética y la estética. La crítica ha dicho: «Saramago vuelve comprensible una realidad huidiza, con parábolas sostenidas por la imaginación, la compasión y la ironía». Comité Nobel «Un hombre con una sensibilidad y una capacidad de ver y de entender que están muy por encima de lo que en general vemos y entendemos los comunes mortales». Héctor Abad Faciolince «Saramago es un ejemplo, un estilo dignísimo de vida y literatura, que demuestra la posibilidad de navegar a contracorriente [...]. Su palabra tiene el valor de un anticongelante, de un remedio personal contra los vendavales de cinismo que nos envuelven». Luis García Montero «Yo no sé, ni quiero saberlo, de dónde ha sacado Saramago ese diabólico tono narrativo, duro y piadoso a un tiempo, [...] que le permite contar tan cerca del corazón y a la vez tan cerca de la historia». Luis Landero «Saramago escribe novelas sobre los mitos para desmitificarlos, [...] siempre para abordar la realidad que le rodea, para tratar de los problemas actuales que son de todos, y para que todo quede claro desde el principio». Rafael Conte, Babelia «Como Günter Grass o Cees Nooteboom, Saramago aspira a enlazar con un público que desborde límites nacionales». El País
