Sola y extranjera en el país de sus ancestros, las noches le saben a aventura, sobre todo al conocer a Biel, quien atraído por los ojos de Emma y por la historia que la lleva hasta ese pueblo perdido entre montañas, se une a su investigación. Pero el secreto que buscan, escondido durante siglos, es mucho más peligroso de lo que creen, y los obligará a elegir entre revelarlo o renunciar a todo por lo que Emma ha trabajado para salvar a quienes aman.

Dicey's Song (The Tillerman Cycle #2)
by Cynthia VoigtThe Newbery-winning novel in Cynthia Voigt’s timeless Tillerman cycle.When Momma abandoned Dicey Tillerman and her three siblings in a mall parking lot and was later traced to an asylum where she lay unrecognizing, unknowing, she left her four children no choice but to get on by themselves. They set off alone on foot over hundreds of miles until they finally found someone to take them in. Gram’s rundown farm isn’t perfect, but they can stay together as a family—which is all Dicey really wanted. But after watching over the others for so long, it’s hard for Dicey to know what to do now. Her own identity has been so wrapped up in being the caretaker, navigator, penny counter, and decision maker that she’s not sure how to let go of some responsibilities while still keeping a sense of herself. But when the past comes back with devastating force, Dicey sees just how necessary—and painful—letting go can be.

Die Alice-Maschine: Figurationen der Unruhe in der Populärkultur (Studien zu Kinder- und Jugendliteratur und -medien #6)
by Christine LötscherLewis Carrolls Alice-Bücher gehören zu den Klassikern der Kinderliteratur. Die Nonsense-Erzählungen wurden immer wieder neu interpretiert und vielfach für Theater, Kino und Fernsehen adaptiert; sie inspirierten Avantgarde-Bewegungen wie Dada und Surrealismus. Denn die Poetik der Alice-Bücher ist voller Widersprüche und Paradoxa, die sich in der Lektüre als ein vibrierender Zustand der Unruhe realisieren. Wenig bekannt ist aber, wie sehr das Zusammenspiel unvereinbarer ästhetischer Figurationen aus Alice in Wonderland ein Eigenleben in der Populärkultur entwickelt hat, das bis heute wirksam ist: als Alice-Maschine. Christine Lötscher macht diese Dynamik in ihren Analysen erstmals sichtbar und zeigt auf, wie die Alice-Maschine das Nicht-Verstehen, das Denken und Fühlen an der Grenze der Sinngebung zwischen Freiheit und Verstörung ästhetisch genießbar macht – besonders in Zeiten gesellschaftlicher und medialer Umbrüche.

Dig
by A.S. KingWinner of the Michael L. Printz Medal★&“King&’s narrative concerns are racism, patriarchy, colonialism, white privilege, and the ingrained systems that perpetuate them. . . . [Dig] will speak profoundly to a generation of young people who are waking up to the societal sins of the past and working toward a more equitable future.&”—Horn Book, starred review&“I&’ve never understood white people who can&’t admit they&’re white. I mean, white isn&’t just a color. And maybe that&’s the problem for them. White is a passport. It&’s a ticket.&” Five estranged cousins are lost in a maze of their family&’s tangled secrets. Their grandparents, former potato farmers Gottfried and Marla Hemmings, managed to trade digging spuds for developing subdivisions and now they sit atop a million-dollar bank account—wealth they&’ve refused to pass on to their adult children or their five teenage grandchildren. &“Because we want them to thrive,&” Marla always says. But for the Hemmings cousins, &“thriving&” feels a lot like slowly dying of a poison they started taking the moment they were born. As the rot beneath the surface of the Hemmings&’ white suburban respectability destroys the family from within, the cousins find their ways back to one another, just in time to uncover the terrible cost of maintaining the family name. With her inimitable surrealism, award winner A.S. King exposes how a toxic culture of polite white supremacy tears a family apart and how one determined generation can dig its way out.
