Chlapec, ktorý patril moru
V nehostinnom kúte Kanady, na severnom výbežku zálivu svätého Vavrinca, kde vietor prečesáva husté hrivy lesov a vzdúva morské vlny, kde oblohou víria albatrosy a v tuhej zime prikrýva krajinu hlboký sneh, vzniklo veľké priateľstvo dvoch osamelých chlapcov. Spoločne unikali do magického podmorského sveta vo vlastnej fantázii, snívajúc o mieste, kam skutočne patria, ktoré zahojí ich žiaľ zo straty rodičov. Postupne sa však pre jedného z nich hranica medzi fantáziou a realitou začala nebezpečne vytrácať a jeho priateľa vystavila ťažkej skúške: zachovať kamarátovi vernosť na ceste, ktorá nevyhnutne speje do tragédie.
Poeticko-fantazijný príbeh o priateľstve a sile predstavivosti, o bolesti zo straty milovaného človeka a odvekej túžbe niekam patriť si získal srdcia čitateľov na celom svete.

Patrick Melrose 5: Tak konečne
Záverečný diel série o Patrickovi Melrosovi Tak konečne sa roztáča okolo pohrebu Patrickovej matky Eleanor. Bude preňho život bez rodičov vytúženým vyslobodením?
Edward St. Aubyn nám otvára dvere do sveta dekadencie, nemorálnosti, nenásytnosti, snobstva a krutosti – vitajte vo svete upadajúcej britskej smotánky!
Knižná séria o Patrickovi Melrosovi zachytáva príbeh hlavného hrdinu od čias nevinného detstva až k finálnej sebadeštrukcii. Viac ako dvadsať rokov písal Edward St. Aubyn kroniku života Patricka Melrosa, ktorá je rozložená do piatich samostatných noviel. Stvoril tak nezvyčajný portrét uzavretého a sebeckého sveta privilegovaných s nezvyčajným hlavným hrdinom.
Tak konečne je záverečnou časťou knižnej pentalógie, ktorej prvé štyri časti už postupne vyšli vo Vydavateľstve Absynt.
Rámcom záverečného dielu je pohreb Patrickovej matky Eleanor, na ktorom sa schádzajú priatelia, príbuzní i nepriatelia, aby jej vzdali poslednú úctu. Patrick si kladie otázku, či život bez rodičov bude tým skutočným vyslobodením, po akom tak dlho túžil. Zdá sa, že mnohé traumy týmto dňom pominú. Možno to však znamená, že sa otvorí priestor na celkom nové.
Knižná séria o Patrickovi Melrosovi, ktorej jednotlivé diely zožali najprestížnejšie literárne ocenenia, je fenomenálny bildungsroman pre 21. storočie.
O preklad všetkých piatich románov sa postaral Milan Kopecký.
