Scott Westerfeld Libri

Amori infernali è una raccolta di racconti scritti da alcuni tra i più celebri e amati narratori per ragazzi: Melissa Marr, Scott Westerfeld, Justine Larbalestier, Gabrielle Zevin e Laurie Faria Stolarz. Storie inquietanti e bizzarre, che ruotano sempre intorno a un elemento soprannaturale. Due studenti lasciano che il potere dell’attrazione capovolga il loro mondo; una liceale s’identifica completamente nel libro che sta leggendo; una fanciulla s’innamora del fantasma del ragazzo che abitava in casa sua; e ancora fate, elfi, creature fantastiche del folklore e dell’immaginario celtico reinterpretate con originalità e inventiva, e un pizzico d’ironia. Un mondo strabiliante e misterioso in cui ogni incontro, ogni personaggio, ogni evento può condurre verso territori sconosciuti, e nel quale l’unica bussola cui affidarsi per non perdersi è l’amore.
