Liz Kitsakis, a former federal prosecutor who was poorly paid, now a senior associate at the law firm Young & Crane, is used to long hours. She and Sam, her wonderful and devoted husband, had achieved everything they had ever dreamed of in life, until their relationship fell apart before their eyes. The life they had built had been a lie, and it hadn't happened by chance.
The cracks in their marriage had begun long ago, but they had avoided looking into the problem. What Liz didn't want in this idyllic, hazy state was a desperate phone call from her old friend, Zach Grayson, from Rikers. His wife, Amanda, had been found dead at the bottom of the stone steps of their Brooklyn home, and he had been arrested as the prime suspect.
Liz puts her own problems aside to find out who was responsible for this murder. By chance, she learns that Zach and Amanda's relationship was not what the public perceived. Their close friends, parents of Brooklyn Country Day School, hide many disturbing secrets.
At the end of this dramatic story, Liz constantly asks herself what is the way to save her marriage and can a good and happy marriage really exist?

Finally, in Albanian - and in what Albanian! - comes Ingeborg Bachmann's legendary novel 'Malina', which according to the New York Times Book Review 'contains the best of Virginia Woolf and Samuel Beckett.' In this novel, published in Germany in 1971, Bachmann invites the reader into a world strained at the most extreme limits of language.
The novel's unnamed narrator, a Viennese writer, is torn between two men: looking through the slanted prism of obsession, she is pushed even further into her madness, her anger, but also into her genius. Malina explores love, 'styles of death', the roots of fascism, and passion... A radical book, which has lost none of its force since the day it was first published here fifty years ago

Genre: Fantasy / Science Fiction
Year: 2025 | Pages: 406 | Origin: ALB | ISBN: 9789928960238
'Hagabula' is a novel in the style of magical realism, which follows the journey of Hernan Cortes and his expedition to the mountain of the Aztecs. Set between adventure, philosophy and fantasy, the novel asks about the limits of the world and history, about the separation of man from the primary forces of life, about the eternity of desires and about the role of women in a doomed world created by men. The characters traverse a fabulous and dreamy reality, which will lead to unpredictable discoveries and a conclusion of cosmogonic proportions.
Todor P. Todorov, known for his philosophical and neo-romantic language, in this epic narrative transforms history into a dizzying magic, at once prosperous and dark and harsh, and immerses us in an atmosphere that reminds us of the films of Werner Herzog. A wise, eclectic and paradoxical, beautiful book, which we hear and see while reading it

Translated
A scandal that has not stopped! Seline's prose still remains a unique case. A total scandal of misery and evil as the constitutional canon of existence and the rainbow of being itself.
Only Selimi can write the vulgarity of the vulgar, which is merely the ordinary, with an extraordinary and not at all vulgar language. Meanwhile, the perversity that is not the ordinary, he describes through the habits of a completely perverse life. Unusual perversity that stems from habits.
The Celinian narrative, beyond a chilling work, is a hurricane that cuts from the roots. Very rarely, writing techniques produce such sharp arrhythmias within the tense rhythm, as to give the narrative such startling spasms.
The novel explores themes of poverty, human suffering, and the degradation of society. The book is an Albanian translation of the French original, Mort à crédit

Translated
One of the most enjoyable works of Russian literature, a tour de force that has been compared to the best of Nabokov and Bulgakov, Yuri Olesha's novel 'Envy' combines biting social satire, everyday humor, and a bleak vision of what lies ahead. Andrei is a model Soviet citizen, an arrogant, smug food magnate who aims to revolutionize modern life with a kind of mass-produced sausage. Nikolai, meanwhile, is a failure.
Finding him drunk and lying on the sidewalk one rainy night, Andrei takes him home and finds him a job as a snack barman. Nikolai does his best, but that doesn't mean he's the least bit grateful, quite the opposite. Complaining, sullen, utterly submissive, he despises everything Andrei believes in, even as he envies him at every turn, every breath. The producer and the deceiver, the protagonist and the outcast, the master and the human fight endlessly in the pages of this anarchist comedy by Olesha. It is a contest of wills in which nothing is certain except something; the incorrigible human heart

The Seal Crisis or the War for Nothingness That Decides Everything!
This grotesque war for the Seal reveals the true face of power: A tragic mix between idealism and interest, between light and shadow, between great dreams and bitter realities. Every blow weighs on the fate of the country and every move determines who will hold the Seal. For this, everything is permitted.
The Republic of Absurdity is not only a political tragedy, but a reflection on human nature and the way power is transformed into a dark game, where each actor plays his role with indelible consequences for everyone.
At the end of this war there are no clear winners. There are only losers. There are people and institutions who lose faith, see their dreams fading and face the truth that in politics, nothing is simply black or white.
The Republic of Absurdity is a warning to everyone: Beware of those who hold the Seal, because it is more than a symbol. It is real power, hidden under the cloak of promise and idealism, but tainted by the shadows of manipulation and ambition
