'Empowering, brutally honest, and realistically complex' Buzzfeed'A
call-to-action to everyone out there who wants to fight back'
Bustle'With a powerful message about consent on the one hand and a
diverse range of female protagonists and attitudes towards
sexuality on the other, this is an engrossing and inspiring read .
. .One of my absolute favourites of 2017' Irish TimesWho are the
Nowhere Girls? They're every girl. But they start with just three:
Grace, the preacher's daughter who unwittingly moved into the old
house of a victim whose pain adorns the walls. Bold Rosina, whose
heart has become hardened by all of the straight girls who broke
it.And misunderstood Erin, the girl who finds more solace in
science and order than she does in people. They are brought
together by the idea of changing the narrative of a girl they had
never met, Lucy Moynihan, the victim of a sexual assault who was
victimised further by people who found it easier to believe she had
cried wolf than to confront what had really happened to her. A girl
who, through the course of one evening, went from an excited
teenager who felt wanted by a boy for the first time, to someone
else entirely, with 'a voice in the darkness, giving her a new
name: Slut'.Together, they form the Nowhere Girls, and decide to
avenge the rape of a girl none of them knew. 'At once harrowing and
heart-lifting, it's both an indictment of entrenched victim-blaming
and a demonstration of what can happen when girls lay aside their
differences to demand better treatment' the Guardian
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.
