I chiostri di New York / Katy Hays ; traduzione di Paola Moretti

Milano : Rizzoli, 2023

Abstract: Per Ann Stilwell passare l’estate a lavorare per il Metropolitan Museum of Art di New York è un sogno che si avvera. Ma il destino scompagina i suoi piani quando per un disguido si vede assegnata a una sede distaccata del Met: il Cloisters, una serie labirintica di chiostri spagnoli ricostruiti lungo le rive dell’Hudson, rinomato per la sua collezione di arte medievale e per un giardino ricco di piante medicinali. La giovane studentessa trova ad accoglierla Patrick Roland, l’eccentrico direttore del museo, e Rachel Mondray, la sua magnetica e ricchissima assistente. Da subito i due la coinvolgono nelle loro ricerche sulla storia della divinazione, e Ann sembra disposta a tutto pur di entrare nelle loro grazie. Ma tra gli incunaboli della biblioteca, mentre la curiosità accademica muta pian piano in ossessione, Ann scoprirà qualcosa capace di incrinare gli equilibri: un mazzo di tarocchi italiani risalente al Quattrocento, da secoli ritenuto perduto, in grado, secondo Patrick, di aprire una visione sul futuro a chi sa leggerlo. Mentre segreti e mire personali trascinano i tre studiosi in un gioco mortale di seduzioni e prevaricazione, Ann dovrà fare una scelta: credere in un destino già scritto o diventarne l’unica artefice. Tra relazioni tossiche, arcani maggiori e codici miniati, Katy Hays mette in moto un meccanismo letterario spietato; un esordio brillante che racconta il lato oscuro della nostra fame di conoscenza, in una New York sospesa tra modernità e occulto.

Thousand Autumns = Qian qiu / written by Meng Xi Shi ; translated by Faelicy

Los Angeles : Seven Seas Entertainment, 2023

Abstract: Shen Qiao is a devout Daoist priest who has spent his life honing his skills and spirit, leading his sect with martial talent, beauty beyond measure, and an earnest heart. His polar opposite, Yan Wushi, leads one of the most powerful demonic sects and is said to be unrivaled in his strength and cunning. Yan Wushi believes in the inherently selfish nature of all people—himself included—and that nobody is above committing dark deeds for their own benefit. When a fight leaves Shen Qiao injured, blind, and with hazy memories, Yan Wushi takes in the defeated sect leader with a dark plan: test the limits of the man’s patience and faith in others to lure him onto the demonic path. Little does he know that he is about to meet the first immovable force of his life, and that two hearts can connect in unexpected ways. With the passing of a thousand autumns, who can stay eternal?

Soul sisters / Lesley Lokko

London : Pan Books, 2022

Abstract: Since childhood, Jen and Kemi have lived like sisters in the McFadden family home in Edinburgh, brought together by a shared family history which stretches back generations. Kemi was educated in Britain alongside Jen and the girls could not be closer; nor could they be more different in the paths they take in life. But the ties that bind them are strong and complicated, and a dark family secret exists in their joint history. Solam Rhoyi is from South Africa’s black political elite. Handsome, charismatic, charming, and a successful young banker, he meets both Kemi and Jen on a trip to London and sweeps them off their feet. Partly influenced by her interest in Solam, and partly on a journey of self-discovery, Kemi, now 31, decides to return to the country of her birth for the first time. Jen, seeking an escape from her father’s overbearing presence, decides to go with her. In Johannesburg, it becomes clear that Solam is looking for the perfect wife to facilitate his soaring political ambitions. But who will he choose? All the while, the real story behind the two families’ connection threatens to reveal itself – with devastating consequences . . .
