The Black Angel is not an object. The Black Angel is not a myth. The Black Angel lives. A young woman goes missing from the streets of New York. Those who have taken her believe that nobody cares about her, and that no one will come looking for her. They are wrong. She is 'blood' to the killer Louis, the man who stands at the right hand of private detective Charlie Parker, and Louis will tear apart anyone who stands in the way of his attempts to find her. But as Louis's violent search progresses, Parker comes to realize that the disappearance is part of an older mystery, one that is linked to an ornate church of bones in Eastern Europe, to the slaughter at a French monastery in 1944, and to the quest for a mythical prize that has been sought for centuries by evil men: the Black Angel. Yet the Black Angel is more than a myth. It is conscious. It dreams. It is alive. And men are not the only creatures that seek it . . .
Todo el mundo conoce a Daisy Jones & The Six: el álbum de la banda Aurora llegó a definir la era del rock ‘n’ roll de finales de los setenta, y una generación entera de chicas quería crecer para ser Daisy. Pero nadie sabe la razón detrás de la división del grupo en la noche de su concierto final en el Estadio de Chicago el 12 de julio de 1979. . . hasta ahora. Daisy es una niña que llega a la mayoría de edad en Los Ángeles a fines de los años sesenta, se cuela en clubes en Sunset Strip, duerme con estrellas de rock y sueña con cantar en Whiskey a Go Go. El sexo y las drogas son emocionantes, pero es el rock ‘n’ roll lo que más ama. Para cuando tiene veinte años, su voz se hace notar y tiene el tipo de belleza despreocupada que hace que la gente haga locuras. También se hizo notar The Six, una banda dirigida por el melancólico Billy Dunne. En la víspera de su primera gira, su novia Camila descubre que está embarazada, y con la presión de la paternidad y la fama inminentes, Billy se vuelve un poco loco en el camino. Daisy y Billy se cruzan cuando un productor se da cuenta de que la clave del éxito sobrealimentado es unir los dos. Lo que suceda después se convertirá en leyenda.

Described as the moral heir to George Saunders, Tommy Orange is writing from the urban Native American community in Oakland, California. There There takes us into this community as its characters prepare a celebration of their culture in the face of poverty, violence, addiction and lack of representation. The story is told from the points of view of a dozen different characters involved in putting together a powwow in the city stadium. Early in the book we intuit that something terrible will happen there. Much of the novel's emotional power comes from reading against this intuition, and connecting with the unique voices - male and female, old and young - from around the community as the clock ticks down. Like the best fiction, this is vivid and real in its setting but universal enough to be speaking about a disenfranchised community anywhere. It could not be more timely.
