Tăcerea vine prima (Silence comes first)
Tăcerea vine prima vorbeşte despre trauma unei familii contemporane şi despre blocajele de comunicare dintre mai multe generații de femei. Atunci când tăcerea se instalează într-o familie, toate comportamentele sunt creatoare de traume. Singura soluție pare să fie depășirea fricii și deschiderea rănilor.
Subiectul principal îl reprezintă relația complicată a Dorei, pe de o parte cu mama sa intruzivă și veșnic nemulțumită, pe de altă parte cu fiica adolescentă care începe să-și ceară dreptul la independență. Crescută într-o familie în care femeile și bărbații au fost dintotdeauna într-un raport de forță, copiii au acoperit goluri și dureri, fericirea personală n-a părut necesară, mamele au îmbătrânit urât, iar tații, în tăcere, Dora preferă fantasma realității. Într-un moment de curaj, ea intră într-o relație online cu Toma. Totuși, chiar și după ce ajunge la Braşov, acolo unde locuieşte bărbatul, spaima de a nu fi dezamăgită o face să se întoarcă acasă, fără ca întâlnirea să aibă loc. Când însă, Toma vine în București și o sună, Dora este nevoită să ia o decizie. Nu înainte de a rupe tăcerea şi a da cărţile pe faţă, într-o discuţie cu mama ei.
“Silence Comes First" explores the trauma within a contemporary family and the communication barriers between multiple generations of women. When silence takes root in a family, every behavior becomes a source of trauma. The only solution seems to be overcoming fear and confronting old wounds.
The central theme is on one hand Dora's complicated relationship with her intrusive and perpetually dissatisfied mother, and on the other the dynamic with her teenage daughter, who is beginning to assert her right to independence. Raised in a family where women and men were always engaged in a power struggle, where children filled voids and covered up pain, Dora searches for an escape. After a childhood where personal happiness seemed unnecessary, where mothers aged poorly, and fathers remained silent, Dora prefers the fantasy over reality. In a moment of courage, she enters an online relationship with Toma. However, even after she travels to Brașov, where Toma lives, her fear of disappointment drives her to return home without meeting him. But when Toma comes to Bucharest and calls her, Dora is forced to make a decision. However, she can only do that after breaking the silence and laying all the cards on the table in a conversation with her mother.

Żywopłoty (The Hedges)
“Debiut Karpińskiej to opowiadania pisane Gombrowiczem, ale fajniejsze, bo o ludziach z naszych ulic” Olga Hund
Opis okładkowy:
Żywopłoty to historia człowieka, którego tożsamość zbudowana jest na narracji – istnieje tylko wtedy, gdy opowiada, dlatego jego dzieje rozpisane są niczym dzieje świata, który on szczelnie wypełnia.
Żywopłoty – z ich odrealnieniem, a jednocześnie koncentrancją na zwykłych, prostych codziennych sprawach – układają się w rodzaj baśni. To baśń o tym, co w życiu najważniejsze.
Poszczególne mikrohistorie można poznawać osobno i przy każdej na nowo odkrywać perspektywy i wymiary człowieczeństwa. Czyta się je – jak utwory najlepszych autorów czeskich, takich jak Pavel czy Hrabal – jak rzecz niewymuszoną, trochę spoza literackiego świata, nieosadzoną w konkretnej rzeczywistości i czasie.

Hou je stil
“Een verdwijning van een van ons haalt het nieuws niet, omdat het geen nieuws is. De rest van de wereld denkt niet aan je – niet als ze jouw coke snuiven, niet als ze de kleding dragen die jij maakte, niet als ze je hun land uitzetten.”
Dit is het verhaal over de uit Mexico gevluchte Alex, een teruggetrokken jongen die stage loopt op een Nederlandse universiteit en probeert te redden wat er te redden valt. Om te leven moet hij praten, om te overleven juist niet.
Hou je stil is een meeslepende roman over dichte grenzen en grenzeloze moed, over de kracht van taal en het troebele onderscheid tussen daders en slachtoffers.
Alle personages in dit boek zijn verzonnen. De feiten niet.
Het boek is gebaseerd op jarenlang onderzoek en verhalen van mensen met ervaring met vluchten of uitgezet worden, mensen werkzaam in asielrecht, docenten van verschillende (Mexicaanse) universiteiten, traumapsychologen, mensenrechtenactivisten, journalisten, ondergedoken mensen, en slachtoffers en daders van kartel/bendegeweld. Het verhaal schijnt licht op de impact van (internationale) overheden op individuen alsook op drugs gerelateerd en seksueel geweld. Ook legt dit aangrijpende verhaal de complexe relatie bloot tussen ‘drugslanden’ zoals Mexico en Europa: een continent dat haar grenzen steeds meer optrekt voor asielzoekers en tegelijkertijd een grote cocaïnedoorvoerder en – gebruiker is.
