Publisher's summary
Novela sobre la fatalidad, el exilio, el amor o la familia, Brooklyn es una historia para siempre, dueña de un poder emocional sobrecogedor.
Con la templanza, el virtuosismo y la perspicacia psicológica del maestro contemporáneo que es, Colm Tóibín, uno de los mejores escritores irlandeses de nuestros días, ha construido una historia estremecedora sobre el destino cuya diáfana superficie esconde un fondo donde se abisma una complejidad inagotable.
Eilis Lacey es una chica de familia humilde que, como tantos otros, no encuentra trabajo en el pequeño pueblo del sudeste de Irlanda en el que vive. Por ello, cuando se le ofrece un puesto en Norteamérica no duda en aceptarlo.
Poco a poco, Eilis se abre paso en el Brooklyn de los años cincuenta y, a despecho de la nostalgia y los rigores del exilio, encuentra incluso un primer amor y la promesa de una nueva vida.
Inesperadamente, sin embargo, trágicas noticias de Irlanda le obligan a regresa y enfrentarse a todo aquello de lo que ha huido.
Reseñas:
«Desde la primera línea en una historia de Colm Tóibín uno está sumergido por completo en una conciencia. Da igual que sea una novela o un cuento. La inmersión es la misma, y no cesa hasta el final.»
Antonio Muñoz Molina, El País
«Una historia de premios Oscar.»
Daniela Mendoza, La Razón
«Con esta novela alegre y humana, Colm Tóibín ha escrito una obra maestra.»
Sunday Times
«Bellamente elaborada, transforma la vida cotidiana en algo extraordinario.»
Richard Ingrams, Daily Telegraph (Libro del año)
«Ni una frase ni un pensamiento fuera de lugar. Su mejor ficción hasta la fecha.»
Irish Times
«El retratode una mujer joven más cautivador y conmovedor que he leído en mucho tiempo.»
Zoë Heller, The Guardian (Libro del año)
«Llena de profundidad humana, divertida, conmovedora, escrita con destreza: [...] una novela magnífica y muy bien lograda.»
Peter Kemp, Sunday Times (Libro del año)
«Brooklyn me ha conmovido más que cualquier otro libro.»
Nicholas Hytner, The Observer (Libro del año)
«Frescura e inmediatez notable [...] con una ligereza simpática y cómica.»
Daily Mail

Story
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Las cosas del corazón se reducen a dos simples posibilidades: se ama o no. Alice Humbert tiene el alma desgarrada. Erno Hessel, el amor de su vida, la ha dejado para irse a Nueva York. Estamos en París, 1924, la ciudad se prepara para albergar los Juegos Olímpicos, fundados bajo el símbolo de la unión y la hermandad. Todo bulle: la culminación de la basílica del Sagrado Corazón, los movimientos artísticos, el anarquismo, su desconsuelo... Las calles estallan de júbilo y Alice se deja envolver poco a poco; trabaja como modista en su tienda mientras escribe cartas.

Story
El verano se acerca a su fin y Whitney y Jacob han organizado una barbacoa para sus vecinos, a la que asisten Blair, la mejor amiga de Whitney, con su marido e hija; y Rebecca y Ben, una pareja sin hijos. Mientras la anfitriona se divide entre su trabajo, la necesidad de atender a sus invitados y su incontrolable hijo Xavier, la anciana Mara, que ha preferido no asistir al evento, observa la fiesta desde su jardín, buscando los pequeños aviones de papel que Xavier le lanza desde su ventana por las noches.

Story
Eilis Lacey has come of age in small-town Ireland in the hard years following World War Two. When an Irish priest from Brooklyn offers to sponsor Eilis in America, she decides she must go, leaving her fragile mother and her charismatic sister behind. Eilis finds work in a department store on Fulton Street and, when she least expects it, finds love. Tony, who loves the Dodgers and his big Italian family, slowly wins her over with patient charm.
