The Palace of Strange Girls / Sallie Day. - London [etc.] : Harper Perennial, 2009. - 353 s., [1], 21 s. ; 20 cm.
Tekst w jęz. ang.
England, 1959, is teetering on the edge of massive social change. While their friends tackle the Costa Brava for the first time, the Singleton family head off for their week in Blackpool - a holiday shadowed by mistrust, uncertainty and doubt. Jack, mill foreman, is hiding a war-time secret that threatens to destroy his marriage. Ruth, iron-willed matriarch and strict guardian, is faced with the realisation that her family is growing apart. Helen, a restless teenager struggling under her mother's rules, has made a new friend her parents disapprove of - with good reason. And seven-year-old Beth, just out of hospital, is learning to forge her own path - after a chance meeting with Tiger Woman from the Palace of Strange Girls... [Harper Perennial, 2009]

A young man arrives in the Ukraine, clutching in his hand a tattered photograph. He is searching for the woman who fifty years ago saved his grandfather from the Nazis. Unfortunately, however, he is aided in his quest by Alex, a translator with an uncanny ability to mangle English into new forms; a "blind" old man haunted by memories of the war; and an undersexed guide dog named Sammy Davis, Jr, Jr. What they are looking for seems elusive - a truth hidden behind veils of time, language and the horrors of war. What they find turns all their worlds upside down... [www.goodreads.com]

Tytuł oryginału: "Sieben Jahre in Tibet" 1952.
Tekst w języku angielskim.
Heinrich Harrer, already a famous mountaineer and Olympic ski champion, was climbing in the Himalayas when the Second World War erupted in Europe. An Austrian national, he was imprisoned by the British in India. With an almost super-human effort, he succeeded in escaping from the internment camp and fled into Tibet and the forbidden city of Lhasa, the first Westerner to lay eyes on this holiest of places. For seven years Harrer learned the language and acquired a greater understanding of the Tibetans than any Westerner had ever before achieved. He became the friend and tutor of the young Dalai Lama and finally accompanied him to India when he fled the Red Chinese invasion. A travel-writing landmark, this is a stunning story of incredible courage and self-reliance set against the backdrop of a mysterious and magnificent culture. [Harper Perennial, 2005]

Tekst w języku angielskim.
A century ago, outsiders saw China as a place where nothing ever changes. Today the country has become one of the most dynamic regions on earth. In Oracle Bones, Peter Hessler explores the human side of China's transformation, viewing modern-day China and its growing links to the Western world through the lives of a handful of ordinary people. In a narrative that gracefully moves between the ancient and the present, the East and the West, Hessler captures the soul of a country that is undergoing a momentous change before our eyes.

Prodigal summer : a novel / Barbara Kingsolver - New York : Harper Perennial, 2001. - XI, [4], 444 strony ; 21 cm.
Tekst w języku angielskim.
Prodigal Summer weaves together three stories of human love within a larger tapestry of lives inhabiting the forested mountains and struggling small farms of southern Appalachia. From her outpost in an isolated mountain cabin, Deanna Wolfe, a reclusive wildlife biologist, watches a den of coyotes that have recently migrated into the region. She is caught off-guard by a young hunter who invades her most private spaces and confounds her self-assured, solitary life. On a farm several miles down the mountain, Lusa Maluf Landowski, a bookish city girl turned farmer's wife, finds herself unexpectedly marooned in a strange place where she must declare or lose her attachment to the land that has become her own. And a few more miles down the road, a pair of elderly feuding neighbors tend their respective farms and wrangle about God, pesticides, and the possibilities of a future neither of them expected. Over the course of one humid summer, these characters find their connections to one another and to the flora and fauna with whom they share a place. Prodigal Summer demonstrates a balance of narrative, drama and ideas that is characteristic of Barbara Kingsolver's finest work. [HarperCollins Publishers, 2001]

Daniel isn't talking : a novel / Marti Leimbach. - London [etc.] : Harper Perennial, 2007. - 281, 15 s. ; 20 cm.
Tekst w jęz. ang.
Melanie Marsh is an American living in London married to Stephen, the perfect Englishman, who knew the minute he saw her that she was to be his future. But when their youngest child is diagnosed with autism their marriage starts to unravel at great speed. Stephen runs back into the arms of his previous girlfriend while Melanie does everything in her power to help her son and keep her family together. And then one day Melanie hears about a man named Andy O'Connor, who calls himself a "play therapist" and has a client list so long she can barely get him on the phone. Some say he's a maverick and a con artist of the first degree, but when he walks into the house and starts playing with her child, Melanie knows she's found the key to her son's success, and possibly to her own happiness. "Daniel Isn't Talking" is a passionate and darkly humorous novel that explores a mother's determination to help her child. A love story for grown ups, it somehow extends its wisdom far beyond the parameters of disability and into the substance of human nature itself. A tense, moving novel that will make you laugh out loud even as it breaks your heart. [www.amazon.com.uk, 2007]
