a tale that will sweep you away' Yangsze Choo, New York Times
bestselling author of The Night Tiger'A gorgeous and thrilling
paean to the ferocious power of women' Laini Taylor, New York Times
bestselling author of Strange the DreamerIn 1893, there's no such
thing as witches. There used to be, in the wild, dark days before
the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but tidy charms and
nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any measure of power, she
must find it at the ballot box.But when the three Eastwood sisters
join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to pursue the
forgotten ways that might turn the women's movement into the
witch's movement. Stalked by shadows and sickness, hunted by forces
who will not suffer a witch to vote - and perhaps not even to live
- the sisters must delve into the oldest magics, draw new
alliances, and heal the bond between them if they want to survive.
There's no such thing as witches.But there will be. Praise for The

Britt-Marie je vraj pasívne agresívna... Pche, také klamstvo! Keby
ľudia neboli neporiadni, nerobili by špinu a škrabance, ONA by
nemusela kričať! Ale to je už jedno. Britt práve ukončila svoje
40-ročné manželstvo a odmietla byť ďalej ženou v domácnosti.
Koniec! Začne nanovo v Borgu! Ibaže Borg zasiahla finančná kríza
tak silno, že tu okrem jednej smradľavej pizzérie nič neostalo.
Teda až na... futbal. Tomu ale Britt-Marie vôbec nerozumie. Deti z
Borgu však trénera zúfalo potrebujú, a tak vezmú naozaj
kohokoľvek... To, že Britt to miesto nechce, ich vlastne vôbec
nezaujíma. Lenže keď ju pozve na rande miestny policajt a ešte si
nechtiac v soláriu zlomí ruku, zdá sa, že osud má s Britt v Borgu
predsa len svoje plány. Preložila Mária Bratová
