Hyper-capitalism functions like warfare. Multiple fronts, casualties mounting, an unstoppable march toward nothing. Let's play pretend: what if back in 2025, the international community actually understood the threat humanity faced? What if they acted instead of posturing?

Growing into womanhood means confronting the blade. Learning to withstand the sharp edge, the inevitable wounds. Learning to bleed without breaking. And despite every scar, you still need to look beautiful while scrubbing floors on your knees.

I was born into slavery, way back. Couldn't accomplish my dreams of what a woman should be, should do. That's slavery's legacy—it blocks you. But you? Nothing can stop you from wanting. Another book I should've read decades ago.

Adventure isn't about interrupting the mundane or traveling somewhere exotic. It's about how you position yourself in time. A mother and her son. She's struggling after a brutal breakup that came out of nowhere.

When people fear losing what they know, they'll follow any tyrant promising to restore the old order. Barbara Kingsolver is a writer I trust blindly. I wait for each new novel with genuine impatience.

She says he has the gift of survival. Her? Barely the gift of life. They fled quickly from a dying world, a pandemic as sudden as it was vicious. For years now, they've lived on a mountainside, between cliffs and forest.

Willpower makes everything rigid. You can't force things cleanly. Better to position yourself to receive everything, eyes half-closed. Surrender. Trust yourself. The most beautiful things happen naturally, without force.

Love? What is this love? Can you eat it? Drink it? Does it serve any purpose? Because he has perfect pitch and a generous godmother, Brodie Moncur escapes the family manse and the grim destiny awaiting him.

After electricity, vaccines, atomic energy, personal computers—Progress's vanguard now blossoms between the thighs of what some still dare call a sex-toy. Despite getting thoroughly bored with his first book, I gave this one a shot.

My weapon? Blurring the line between fiction and reality. It's all I know how to do. Presented and translated from English (United States) by Antoine Bello. Seems like in 2025, Bello decided to make us believe in literary hoaxes.
