A new love story from Anna Todd begins with THE FALLING, the first
novel in a new trilogy (Brightest Stars) from the #1
internationally best-selling author of the AFTER series.
Twenty-year old Karina is proud of the independent life she is
trying to create for herself in Fort Benning, Georgia. A dutiful
officer's daughter, supportive sister to a troubled twin brother,
and caring friend to her roommate, Elodie, she always puts the
needs of others ahead of her own, and prides herself on being a
fixer of broken things--whether it's the house she's just bought or
the fragmented family she works hard to keep intact. Like anyone
who has grown up around an army base, Karina also knows the
background noise that follows men and women home from war. And when
she meets Kael, a handsome soldier on the cusp of discharge, she's
immediately intrigued by his brooding presence and enigmatic
silence. As their uncertain and unexpected friendship starts to
turn into something more, Karina tries to piece together Kael's
story: he is emotionally closed off, recovering from wounds and
other trauma in the aftermath of two deployments in Afghanistan. In
her practice as a physical therapist, Karina has a strong desire to
help him heal, and though it challenges her many insecurities and
anxieties, she has an equally strong desire to trust him. But that
trust is fragile, like the preciousness of a soldier's life. It can
be gone in an instant. Ultimately facing a crossroads, Karina and
Kael find their relationship will be tested by the one thing that
Karina cannot accept, forgive, or understand. Anna Todd's Brightest
Stars trilogy continues with THE BURNING and THE INFINITE LIGHT OF
DUST, coming soon.

V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
