Zoe & Axel

Autor: Ines Garber

Número de Páginas: 485

Un slow burn altamente adictivo. A veces los mejores planes son los inesperados. Zoe y Axel son polos opuestos y, a la vez, muy similares. A él le encantan las matemáticas; ella las odia. Él es reflexivo; ella da muy pocas vueltas a las cosas. A él no le gusta el chocolate; a ella no le importaría alimentarse de por vida a base de dulces. Los dos creen que no encajan, los dos agradecen el silencio y los dos desconocen lo que uno siente cuando se enamora. Aunque quizá el punto de unión más importante entre ambos es que los dos están a punto de averiguarlo. «Zoe y Axel es la historia de dos corazones que no encajan en ningún sitio y terminan encontrándose donde menos esperan.» @bearuiz2

Murder by Masquerade

Autor: Camden Wyatt , Ralph Schofield

Número de Páginas: 332

Murder by Masquerade by Camden Wyatt Lust, betrayal, revenge, and murder. It's Hollywood, and it's where acting out non-truths on a daily basis is ordinary and where relationships-and the crimes of doomed relationships-are never what they seem. Hollywood's leading man has tragically given his last performance, falling to his death in front of hundreds of witnesses on the movie set of Sweet Sherry South. The entertainment world is stunned; fans are overcome with grief; and the funeral is grandiose and memorable. But for Lacey Sills doubts arise, and she shares her sensational, often unbelievable, tale with Detectives Zoe Burns and Axel Hawk, who set out to investigate the death and, in the process, discover one of Hollywood's darkest, hidden secrets. The investigation quickly leads them into the shadowy recesses of Hollywood, revealing a vile creature who is totally disguised and hidden by the infamy of the industry itself. And now it has emerged to do battle with Axel and Zoe. Good versus evil, friendship versus narcissism, sacrifice versus greed. Are the charismatic and sympathetic heroes a match for their heinous opponent?

Repair

Autor: Markus Berger , Kate Irvin

Número de Páginas: 398

A collection of timely new scholarship, Repair: Sustainable Design Futures investigates repair as a contemporary expression of empowerment, agency, and resistance to our unmaking of the world and the environment. Repair is an act, metaphor, and foundation for opening up a dialogue about design’s role in proposing radically different social, environmental, and economic futures. Thematically expansive and richly illustrated, with over 125 visuals, this volume features an international, interdisciplinary group of contributors from across the design spectrum whose voices and artwork speak to how we might address our broken social and physical worlds. Organized around reparative thinking and practices, the book includes 30 long and short chapters, photo essays, and interviews that focus on multiple responses to fractured systems, relationships, cities, architecture, objects, and more. Repair will encourage students, academics, researchers, and practitioners in art, design and architecture practice and theory, cultural studies, environment and sustainability, to discuss, engage, and rethink the act of repair and its impact on our society and environment.

El teatro de los sueños

Autor: Polly Samson

Número de Páginas: 271

Es 1960 y el mundo está al borde de una revolución cultural, política, sexual y artística. En la isla griega de Hydra, un grupo de poetas, artistas y músicos disfrutan de sus sueños a los pies de sus líderes no oficiales, los escritores Charmian Clift y George Johnston, los turbulentos rey y reina de la bohemia. En medio de este círculo de artistas marginados están el cautivador e inescrutable Axel Jensen, su deslumbrante esposa Marianne Ihlen y un joven e ingenuo poeta canadiense llamado Leonard Cohen. Cuando Erica, de dieciocho años, se tropieza con su mundo, acaba de salir de un barco desde Londres con nada excepto un manojo de libretas en blanco y el deseo ardiente de abandonar su hogar tras la muerte de su madre. Entre estos artistas, encontrará una utopía que se está deshilachando y donde todo se pone a prueba: la naturaleza del arte, las relaciones y su propia inocencia. Intoxicante e inmersiva, El teatro de los sueños es una fascinante obra magistral sobre la belleza entre la ingenuidad y la crueldad, el caos y la utopía, el artista y la musa, y sobre las guerras libradas entre hombres y mujeres en los campos de batalla del ingenio.

Welcome to Fort Lauderdale—where the days are hot and the Knights are hotter. Slava: From the first moment I laid eyes on Zoe in that Paris nightclub I knew it was love. Nothing else could explain the intensity I felt for the petite blond. She wasn’t my usual type, but she didn’t even blink at my scars, muscles, and voracious sexual appetite. A big, burly hockey player, brought to my knees by a woman a fraction my size. Everything was going great. Until I asked her to marry me. I’m Russian and she’s Swiss. The only way we can be together is if we get married, but she won’t even consider it. I don’t know what the hell I’m going to do, but leaving hockey to move to Switzerland isn’t an option.
