Animal (Paperback): Lisa Taddeo Animal (Paperback)

"I drove myself out of New York City where a man shot himself in front of me. He was a gluttonous man and when his blood came out it looked like the blood of a pig. That's a cruel thing to think, I know. He did it in a restaurant where I was having dinner with another man, another married man. Do you see how this is going? But I wasn't always that way. I am depraved. I hope you like me."

Joan has spent a lifetime enduring the cruelties of men. But when one of them commits a shocking act of violence in front of her, she flees New York City in search of Alice, the only person alive who can help her make sense of her past. In the sweltering hills above Los Angeles, Joan unravels the horrific event she witnessed as a child—that has haunted her every waking moment—while forging the power to finally strike back.

Animal is a depiction of female rage at its rawest, and a visceral exploration of the fallout from a male-dominated society.

Twenty-five years ago, troubled teenager Charlie Crabtree committed a shocking and unprovoked murder. On the darkest corners of the internet, plenty of people still remember what happened: Charlie's crime has attracted a dark infamy, inspiring more than one copycat.

Paul Adams can remember the case too - Charlie and his victims were his friends. Paul left town as soon as he could, and he's never gone back. But then his mother, old and senile, takes a turn for the worse. Though every inch of him resists, it's time to come home. It's not long before things start to go wrong. In the news, Paul learns another copycat has struck. His mother is distressed, insistent that there's something in the house. Someone is following him.

Which reminds him of the most unsettling thing about that awful day twenty-five years ago. It wasn't just the murder. It was the fact that afterwards, Charlie Crabtree was never seen again . . .

Jessica Rabbit probeer nie voorgee om iets te wees wat sy nie is nie. Sy’s ’n uitlokkende vrou en klaar.

Op haar een-en-dertigste verjaarsdag besluit Roxy sy soek ’n roekelose, skelrooi lipstiek-lewe. Almal dink in elk geval sy is sletterig en uitgesproke – grotendeels weens haar blog wat sy onder die skuilnaam Jessica Rabbit skryf. Haar kollega Zander dink sy is Jessica Rabbit in lewende lywe: so witwarm sensueel dat sy ’n nat lap aan die brand kan steek. Roxy voel allesbehalwe sensueel, en die geraamtes uit haar verlede beduiwel telkens haar flirtasies en verhoudings. Daarom gryp sy nou na rooi lipstiek.

Wanneer Zander se pa, die bekende motiveringspreker Adam Muller, op die toneel verskyn, raak Roxy se lipstiek-lewe nog meer deurmekaar. Die enigste sekerheid in Roxy se nuwe wêreld blyk Ouma Lot te wees – totdat dié ook in raaisels begin praat. Roxy se lipstiek begin al meer na oorlogsverf lyk. . .

A magical new stand-alone novel with an entrancing fairy tale feel, from the author of the highly acclaimed The Sisters of the Winter Wood.

Deep in the Hungarian woods, the sacred magic of King Solomon lives on in his descendants. Gathering under the midnight stars, they pray, sing and perform small miracles - and none are more gifted than the great Rabbi Isaac and his three daughters. Each one is blessed with a unique talent - whether it be coaxing plants to grow, or predicting the future by reading the path of the stars. When a fateful decision to help an outsider ends in an accusation of witchcraft, fire blazes through their village. Rabbi Isaac and his family are forced to flee, to abandon their magic and settle into a new way of life. But a dark fog is making its way across Europe and will, in the end, reach even those who thought they could run from it.

Each of the sisters will have to make a choice - and change the future of their family forever.

Enter a magical world of secrets, family ties and fairy tales weaving through history...

Skye is looking for normal. She grew up different and it rankles. Home isn't normal; her mom isn't normal. Her brother, beloved as he is, isn't quite normal, either. Her marriage was kind of normal (Cam is a wealthy, handsome man who's nice enough) and now it's a dumpster fire. And look at South Africa—entirely NOT normal.

She's got PTSD and she's in mourning. She doesn't know who she is or what she wants.

She tries to anchor herself to tangible things: to her cooking, to her neighbour's children, to sex. But as she relives her past and tries to plan her future, she feels increasingly dislocated. Skye escapes when things get overwhelming, and realises almost too late that she's about to make everything worse.

Een misstap jare gelede het beteken dat Nadia waarskynlik nooit haar enigste kind sal kan vashou en hoor hoe hy haar mamma noem nie. Só het sy gedink, tot sy 'n besigheid op Fynbos begin en haar seun op rolskaatse weer sy verskyning in haar lewe maak. Maar hierdie seun van haar het reeds 'n pa, al is hy sy aanneempa.

Dat hy onlangs 'n wewenaar geword het, is nie regtig hoopvol nie. Wie sal hom kwalik kan neem as hy agterdogtig - selfs vyandig is - as hy moet uitvind hoe Nadia by hierdie oulike seuntjie van hom betrokke is? Toe die wind draai, twyfel sy nie. Dat sy die kans van haar lewe gaan aangryp om haar kind terug te kry is nie altemit nie. Net sodat 'n nuwe onsekerheid aan haar kan begin vreet. Hoe weet 'n vrou of 'n man in haar as vrou of net in haar as die ideale ma vir sy kind belang stel?

Meer nog, is lyflike begeerte liefde? Want 'n vrou wil nou eenmaal die l-woord hoor voor die huweliksformulier gelees word.
