Brooklyn, Burning
by Steve BrezenoffWhen you're sixteen and no one understands who you are, sometimes the only choice left is to run. If you're lucky, you find a place that accepts you, no questions asked. And if you're really lucky, that place has a drum set, a place to practice, and a place to sleep. For Kid, the streets of Greenpoint, Brooklyn, are that place. Over the course of two scorching summers, Kid falls hopelessly in love and then loses nearly everything and everyone worth caring about. But as summer draws to a close, Kid finally finds someone who can last beyond the sunset. Brooklyn, Burning is a fearless and unconventional love story. Brezenoff never identifies the gender of his two main characters, and readers will draw their own conclusions about Kid and Scout. Whatever they decide, Brooklyn, Burning is not a book any teen reader will soon forget. Brooklyn, Burning is the story of two summers in Brooklyn, two summers of fires, music, loss, and ultimately, love.

The Brothers Karamazov: Large Print (First Avenue Classics ™)
by Fyodor DostoevskyFour brothers reunite in their hometown in Russia. The oldest, Dimitri, has just returned from a stint in the military, and he wants to claim an inheritance from his mother that is being held in his father's hands. Dimitri and his father argue and call two other brothers, Ivan and Alyosha, to resolve the fight. The fourth brother, Smerdyakov, is an illegitimate child who suffers from epileptic seizures. He is relegated to servitude in the father's house but enjoys discussing philosophy with Ivan. The murder of their father forces the brothers to question their beliefs about each other, religion, and morality. Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky first published his dynastic novel in serial form from 1879 to 1880. This unabridged version is taken from the 1912 translation by Constance Garnett.
The Brothers Karamazov: (annotated) (worldwide Classics) (Dover Thrift Editions)
by Fyodor Dostoyevsky Constance GarnettCompleted only two months before his death, The Brothers Karamazov is Dostoyevsky's largest, most expanisve, most life-embracing work. Filled with human passions -- lust, greed, love, jealousy, sorrow and humor -- the book is also infused with moral issues and the issue of collective guilt. As in many of Dostoyevsky's novels, the plot centers on a murder. Sucked into the crime's vortex are three brothers: Dmitri, a young officer utterly unrestrained in love, hatred, jealousy, and generosity; Ivan, an intellectual capable of delivering, impromptu, the most brilliant, lively, and unforgettable disquisitions about good and evil, God, and the devil; and Alyosha, the youngest brother, preternaturally patient, good, and loving.Part mystery, part profound philosophical and theological debate, The Brothers Karamazov pulls the reader in on many different levels. As the Introduction says, "The characters Dostoyevsky writes about, though they may not appear to be ones who live on our street, or even on any street, seem, in their passions and lack of self-control, the familiar and intimate denizens of our souls." It's no wonder that for many people The Brothers Karamazov is one of the greatest novels ever written.

La Bruja Negra (Las Crónicas de la Bruja Negra #Volumen 1)
by Laurie ForestPrimera entrega de «Las Crónicas de la Bruja Negra», una serie de fantasía juvenil que condena los prejuicios y la injusticia y que ofrece una historia de amor en un entorno escolar a lo Harry Potter y un contexto político a lo Juego de Tronos. Bienvenidos a la Universidad Verpax. Carnissa Gardner, la última Bruja Negra, rechazó a las fuerzas enemigas y salvó a su pueblo durante la Guerra del Reino. Fue una de las más grandes magas Gardnerianas. Elloren Gardner, de 17 años, es la viva imagen de su famosa abuela, ahora ya muerta, aunque no tiene poderes mágicos, y eso no es bueno en una sociedad que premia las habilidades mágicas por encima de las demás. Después de la muerte de sus padres, Elloren y sus hermanos son criados por su tío en una aldea en el bosque. Elloren quiere ir a la Universidad Verpax para convertirse en boticaria, pero su intrigante tía política quiere que se case con Lukas Gray, un poderoso mago y aliado político de su tía. Elloren rechaza la propuesta de Lukas, y descubre que la influencia de su tía se extiende y hace que su vida en la universidad pueda estar llena de peligros. En la Universidad, Elloren conoce a todo tipo de criaturas diferentes, Icarals con alas, cambiaformas, Elfos y Selkies, y se acabará enamorando de Yvan, cuyo origen Keltish no puede encajar con una Gardneriana como ella. Elloren aprende a cuestionar la autoridad y la historia Gardneriana, mientras desarrolla una empatía real para con diferentes compañeros, haciéndose amiga de los más parias y outsiders, únicos dignos de confianza, mientras se empieza a cuestionar todo lo que sabe y creía saber sobre la historia y la cultura de Garnderia, percatándose de que existe una buena razón para la creciente oposición al nuevo gobierno de su país y para empezar a cuestionarse también aquello que creía amar y odiar.
