An explosive and daring novel about bodies, sex, politics and disability by the prize-winning Spanish writer Cristina Morales Ángela, Patricia, Marga and Nati are cousins living together in Barcelona. As women branded as disabled who share a state-subsidised flat, they must fight every day to retain their independence and find new and inventive ways - from dance to underground zines - to stop the state from managing every aspect of their lives. Funny and furious, Easy Reading is an indictment of the institutions that stigmatise individuals as disabled and of the language that marginalises them. It is also a portrait - visceral, vibrant, combative - of contemporary Barcelona. But, above all, Easy Reading is a feminist celebration of the body in all its forms, of female desire and queer sexuality, and of the transgressive and revolutionary power of language. Translated from the Spanish by Kevin Gerry Dunn

Sunset is a love story with a tragic ending. It is the story of giving, being happy, and being successful, even with the odds of different cultures and having five children from previous marriages. Sunset is also the story of a man that loved the ocean, playing hard, and making it to the highest echelons of the biggest enterprise in the world: the United States Army. The story has almost a surreal ending, when he goes fishing with his friends, and after a wonderful day in a paradisiac island, went to sleep and did not wake up in his bed. He had disappeared. The title “Sunset” was inspired by his last picture taken. Little did he know it was going to be his last sunset.
