  1. The Eyre Affair

    • 384 páginas
    • 14 horas de lectura

    There is another 1985, somewhere in the could-have-been, where Thursday Next is a literary detective without squat, fear, or boyfriend. Thursday is on the trait of the villainous Acheron Hades, who has been kidnapping characters from works of fiction and holding them to ransom. Jane Eyre herself has been plucked from the novel of the same name, and Thursday must find a way into the book to repair the damage. She also has to find time to halt the ongoing Crimean conflict, persuade the man she loves to marry her, rescue her aunt from inside a Wordsworth poem and figure out who really wrote Shakespeare's plays. Aided and abetted by a cast of characters that includes her time-travelling father, Jack Schitt of the all-power Goliath Corporation, a pet dodo named Pickwick and Edward Rochester himself, Thursday embarks on an adventure that will take your breath away. A delight for anyone who has ever wondered where bananas come from or why Leigh Delamere motorway services are so peculiarly named, The Eyre Affair is classic storytelling at its most engrossing. The world will never look the same again...

  2. Lost in a Good Book

    Thursday Next, literary detective and newlywed, is back to embark on an adventure that begins, quite literally on her own doorstep. It seems that Landen, her husband of four weeks, actually drowned in an accident when he was two years old. Someone, somewhere, sometime, is responsible. The sinister Goliath Corporation wants its operative Jack Schitt out of the poem in which Thursday trapped him, and it will do almost anything to achieve this - but bribing the ChronoGuard? Is that possible? Having barely caught her breath after The Eyre Affair, Thursday must battle corrupt politicians, try to save the world from extinction, and help the Neanderthals to species self-determination. Mastadon migrations, journeys into Just William, a chance meeting with the Flopsy Bunnies, and violent life-and-death struggles in the summer sales are all part of a greater plan. But whose? and why?

  3. El pozo de las tramas perdidas

    En el mundo de Thursday Next la literatura es como una religión. Tras recuperar la integridad de Jane Eyre y vencer al malvado Acheron Hades, los problemas continúan para la detective literaria Thursday Next: los cambios en el argumento de Jane Eyre hacen que Jurisficción la persiga por haber alterado un clásico. Thursday, ahora embarazada (de un esposo que ha sido «retrosustraído» y no existe...), se esconde en la Gran Biblioteca (un piso por cada letra del alfabeto), cuyo sótano más profundo es, precisamente, el Pozo de las Tramas Perdidas, el sorprendente lugar donde se crea toda la ficción. Escondida en una mala novela, Caversham Heights, Thursday ayudará a la definitiva deconstrucción de la ficción narrativa. La aventura más loca y surrealista está servida.

    Literary sleuth Thursday Next is back to save literature in the fifth installment of Jasper Fforde's beloved series.

Now, fourteen years after Thursday's last escapade at the 1988 SuperHoop, her son Friday has become a challenging sixteen-year-old. However, Thursday faces even greater challenges: Sherlock Holmes is murdered at the Rheinback Falls, halting his series, and shortly after, Miss Havisham dies in a car accident, ending her narrative. When Thursday receives a death threat meant for her written self, she uncovers a serial killer wreaking havoc in the Bookworld. Adding to her troubles, the Goliath Corporation is attempting to deregulate book travel. To confront these escalating dangers, Thursday must journey to the outer limits of narrative possibilities. Filled with clever wordplay, quirky subplots, and suspense, her return promises to delight both devoted fans and critics who have celebrated Fforde's unique literary universe since the beginning.
