Waar begin mens weer soek vir hoop ná hartbreek?

Ná haar ouers se skielike afsterwe vestig Monya haarself op Franskraal om te probeer vrede vind. Maar selfs naby die see ervaar sy dat niks haar meer opgewonde maak nie. Tot die aand wat sy vir Lukas vir die eerste keer op die strand sien.

Terwyl hy kruisbeen op die sand sit en mediteer, met die volmaan wat bo hom uitstyg, herinner hy haar aan 'n maanengel. Nou kom verf dié maanengel haar hart en siel lig, en sy raak gou onherroeplik verlief op hom. Maar dan ontmoet sy vir Vicky, Lukas se beeldskone eks wat steeds deel is van sy lewe. Nou wonder Monya hoe ernstig hulle verhouding is en waar háár plek in hierdie prentjie is.

Kan twee mense wat albei moes leer om verlies te verwerk mekaar se harte weer heel maak? Dalk meer belangrik: Is hulle dapper genoeg om die kans te waag?

Die skrywer se liriese skryfstyl en voorliefde vir die natuur skemer deur in prentjiemooi tonele. Temas wat aangespreek word sluit in die verwerking van verlies en die krag van liefde om hoop te herstel.

Translated by Irene Testot-Ferry. The Little Prince is a classic tale of equal appeal to children and adults. On one level it is the story of an airman's discovery, in the desert, of a small boy from another planet - the Little Prince of the title - and his stories of intergalactic travel, while on the other hand it is a thought-provoking allegory of the human condition. First published in 1943, the year before the author's death in action, this translation contains Saint-Exupery's delightful illustrations.

A modern-day Catcher in the Rye, Jefferson shares the first-person perspective of an angsty, fearful teen as he deals with the uncertain transition between youth and adulthood. This raw, uncensored look into the young adult experience offers insight into the mental-health issues we carry into adulthood.

Mariana Enriquez has been critically lauded for her unconventional and sociopolitical stories of the macabre. Populated by unruly teenagers, crooked witches, homeless ghosts, and hungry women, they walk the uneasy line between urban realism and horror.

The stories in her new collection are as terrifying as they are socially conscious, and press into being the unspoken—fetish, illness, the female body, the darkness of human history—with bracing urgency. A woman is sexually obsessed with the human heart; a lost, rotting baby crawls out of a backyard and into a bedroom; a pair of teenage girls can’t let go of their idol; an entire neighborhood is cursed to death when it fails to respond correctly to a moral dilemma.

Written against the backdrop of contemporary Argentina, and with a resounding tenderness toward those in pain, in fear, and in limbo, The Dangers of Smoking in Bed is Mariana Enriquez at her most sophisticated, and most chilling.

Rose Gold Watts believed she was sick for eighteen years. She thought she needed the feeding tube, the surgeries, the wheelchair. Turns out her mother is a really good liar.

After five years in prison, Patty Watts is finally free. All she wants is to put old grievances behind her, reconcile with the daughter who testified against her - and care for her new infant grandson. When Rose Gold agrees to have Patty move in, it seems their relationship is truly on the mend. And she has waited such a long time for her mother to come home. But is she still the pliable young girl she once was? And is Patty still as keen on settling an old score?

Because if mothers never forget then daughters never forgive.

A gripping tale of obsession, reconciliation and revenge from an incredible new talent.

A simple request for Siena Arnotto: deliver a gift to her grandfather's friend.

But when that pulse-throbbing moment ends in the murder of an unexpected intruder, Elijah accuses the shaken and confused Siena of setting him up.
