Title: Come Together Series: #7 of Butler, Vermont Author: Marie Force Narrator: Stella Hunter Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 21 minutes Release date: October 21, 2021 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: Three years after his marriage ended in dramatic fashion, Noah Coleman has one goal—to steer clear of romantic entanglements. In fact, he steers clear of most human interaction, studiously avoiding his large meddling extended family, working until he’s exhausted, and then repeating the pattern day after day. His strategy has worked well for him for years, keeping him sealed off from anything that can cause him pain or angst. Or it was working for him… before his company was hired to rebuild the Admiral Butler Inn, forcing him to co-exist with the exasperatingly difficult, gorgeous architect the inn’s owner, Mrs. Hendricks, hired to oversee the project. While nursing a badly broken heart, Brianna Esposito is determined to complete the Butler Inn construction under budget and on time—and to make partner in the Boston firm where she’s been working fourteen hours a day for five years. Nothing is going to stop her from achieving her goal, especially not a cranky contractor with the people skills of a rabid cougar. Noah Coleman is the most exasperating human being she’s ever had the misfortune to tangle with. She’s never had screaming fights with anyone the way she does him, and the fact that he’s also the sexiest man she’s ever met makes it that much more difficult to hold her ground. When Mrs. Hendricks intervenes and orders the two of them to resolve their differences, Brianna is stuck having dinner with the man she wants to stab one minute and kiss the next…

Title: [Spanish] - Encrucijadas Author: Jonathan Franzen Narrator: Rafael De La Rica Hernández Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 27 hours 21 minutes Release date: October 21, 2021 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: UNA HISTORIA EXCEPCIONAL SOBRE LA VIDA DE UNA FAMILIA AMERICANA DE LOS AÑOS SETENTA «Encrucijadas es una novela excelente, la mejor de Franzen.» EL País «Cada novela de Jonathan Franzen es un acontecimiento literario.» El Periódico «Una saga familiar con el aroma de la gran literatura.» EL Cultural En vísperas de las Navidades del año 1971, en Chicago se anuncia una gran nevada. Russ Hildebrandt, pastor en una iglesia progresista de un barrio residencial, está a punto de liberarse de un matrimonio que considera desdichado, salvo que su esposa, Marion, que también tiene sus secretos, se le anticipe. Clem, el primogénito, viene de la universidad infundido de un moralismo extremo que lo ha hecho tomar una decisión que causará estragos. Su hermana Becky, hasta entonces la reina de su clase en el instituto, ha virado bruscamente hacia la contracultura. El tercer hijo, el brillante Perry, que se ha dedicado a vender droga a sus compañeros de curso, se ha propuesto volverse mejor persona. Mientras que el más pequeño, Jay, intenta abrirse camino entre la incertidumbre y el asombro. Así, todos los Hildebrandt persiguen una libertad que los demás miembros de la familia, cada uno por su cuenta, amenazan con coartar. La crítica ha dicho... «Esta novela, como todas las buenas novelas de Franzen, habla de la familia. Me ha parecido la mejor del autor y, aunque la leí a finales de verano, sigo pensando en cada uno de los miembros de la familia Hildebrandt como si fueran de la propia, me pregunto qué harán, dónde estarán y espero el siguiente libro porque Franzen la ha concebido como la primera de una trilogía. [...] Esta novela es la más compleja de todas, la más profunda, con unos personajes muy bien definidos y creíbles y con un personaje femenino protagonista, Marion, la madre de familia, que está más allá de sus anteriores protagonistas femeninas.» CTXT «Una obra muy absorbente, divertida, lacerante y, por momentos, sorprendentemente edificante. En una palabra: exquisita.» Kirkus Reviews «Franzen regresa con una visión panorámica y magistral del vigoroso mundo cultural de los años setenta en Estados Unidos. [...] Un libro irresistible.» Publishers Weekly «Probablemente, Jonathan Franzen sea el mejor novelista estadounidense del momento.» The New Republic «Franzen [...] probablemente haya logrado escribir su obra maestra definitiva. Y tendrá continuidad.» Woman

Title: [Spanish] - La marca del agua Author: Montserrat Iglesias Narrator: Eugenio Barona Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 52 minutes Release date: October 14, 2021 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: Una nueva y poderosa voz. Una novela sobre nuestro pasado UNO DE LOS OCHO MEJORES DEBUTS NARRATIVOS DE 2021 POR EL CULTURAL GANADORA DEL FESTIVAL DE PRIMERA NOVELA DE CHAMBÉRY 2023 «Tiene un aire faulkneriano, incluso de Rulfo. La memoria de un país es su literatura. En ese sentido, La marca del agua es la historia de lo que hemos vivido en los últimos cincuenta años.» Julio Llamazares «Tejida de memoria, nostalgia, traiciones y derrota, La marca del agua [...] es, ante todo, un buen relato neorrural, bien estructurado, de ritmo poderoso y con una trama sorprendente en la que no faltan ni escenas de terrible dureza ni instantes de emoción, con persistentes ecos de Delibes, Luis Mateo Díez y Llamazares en su recreación de un mundo acosado por intereses ajenos, y condenado a la extinción.» Elena Costa, El Cultural 19 de abril de 1950. El agua ya ha alcanzado la piedra que sirve de testigo: en menos de diez días Hontanar desaparecerá para siempre inundado por el pantano. Todos están celebrando la inauguración del pueblo nuevo, solo quedan allí los hermanos Cristóbal. Pero un suceso terrible les obliga a emprender precipitadamente el viaje: Marcos descubre a su hermana Sara colgada de un machón de la cuadra. Envuelta en la colcha que bordó durante años para un ajuar que ya nunca será utilizado y oculta entre sacos de patatas, Sara recorre ese camino en el carro de su hermano. Después de todo, siempre quiso irse del pueblo. Durante el trayecto por un territorio que es ya un páramo, Marcos recuerda la historia de la familia, sus sombras y silencios: la llegada siendo unos niños cuyo origen su madre quiso esconder, los deseos de Sara por construirse una vida propia, la obsesión de la madre por el pretendiente perfecto que le procurase una buena boda, los sentimientos e impulsos no confesados, las traiciones y la relación con el ingeniero falangista encargado de las obras del pantano... La crítica ha dicho: «Aunque sea su primera novela, Montserrat Iglesias no es una debutante: se nota que lleva toda la vida forjando las palabras para este libro preciso, lírico y poderoso.» Jesús Carrasco «Un viaje alucinado de vivos y muertos por una España ignorada, escrito como ya no se escribe en España.» Sergio del Molino «Escribe de una manera muy especial: [...] al leerlo nos llega algo muy de aquí, muy español, con elementos parecidos a Bodas de sangre, de Lorca.» Ayanta Barilli, A Media Luz «Una historia que da voz a los que la perdieron y sentido a su emoción desde la literatura. Una novela muy especial.» Julio Llamazares «Un regreso a los orígenes y a una de las muchas Atlántidas de España que, desde diferente prisma, coincide en un buen número de temáticas: la familia y la muerte, pero también el desarraigo, la identidad y el olvido.» Silvia Hernando, Babelia «Un grito seco y muy bien escrito con ecos de otros tiempos y de grandes como Lorca, Delibes y Carmen Laforet.» Sonia Fides, Público «Un viaje por unas memorias prohibidas: [...] Iglesias cabalga sobre el pasado de España y narra las inquietudes del presente con ecos de la mejor literatura de las últimas décadas, desde clásicos como Delibes y Ana María Matute, hasta contemporáneos como Llamazares, Carrasco y Merino, pasando por voces surgidas en los últimos tiempos como las de María Sánchez, Pilar Adón y Lara Moreno.» REVCYL
