[Danish] - Pingvinernes kald

"Gamle McCreedy kan ikke modstå eventyrets fristelser … Niårige Daisy og næsten halvfemsårige Veronica er et umage vennepar. Den særdeles selvstændige og altid ulasteligt klædte Veronica har haft 87 utrolige år. De fleste af dem har hun tilbragt alene i sit store hus ved havet. Men da den tapre og gæve Daisy flytter ind i hendes liv, opdager Veronica, at hun har fået fornyet sin smag for eventyr – og at de begge er vilde med pingviner. Da Veronica og Daisy sammen inviteres om på den anden side af verden for at besøge pingvinerne på den sydlige halvkugle, tøver de derfor ikke med at slå til. Veronica troede, at det var slut med nye venner, familietamtam og kærlighed, men måske er det aldrig for sent til et eventyr mere? 'Perfekt hyggelæsning foran brændeovnen. Veronica McCreedy går lige i hjertekulen.' – Trisha Ashley 'En vidunderlig bog, der har lidt af det hele. Mysterier, misforståelser, skænderier, forsoning, godhed, kærlighed og masser af pingviner.' – Clare Pooley 'En absolut fornøjelse at læse.' – Short Book and Scribes 'Pingvinernes kald er fuld af skæve og mindeværdige karakter. Endnu en medrivende og opløftende fortælling fra Hazel Prior.' – Portobello Book Blog 'Prior giver os levende og autentiske karakterer, som tager læseren med på noget af en følelsesmæssig rutsjebanetur … På trods af de mange alvorlige emner, der bliver taget op i denne roman, er Pingvinernes kald først som sidst en fejring af mellemmenneskelighed, udholdenhed og håb. En dejligt opløftende bog, fortalt med varme, humor og følsomhed.' – Book'd Out"

Ellie and the Harpmaker: The uplifting feel-good read from the no. 1 Richard & Judy bestselling author

"Brought to you by Penguin. A poignant, feel good debut about a man who gives a stranger a harp, and inadvertently gives them both a second chance at life... 'Perfect for fans of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine. Uplifting and full of heart, and I couldn't put it down!' JO THOMAS MEET ELLIE. She's perfectly happy living a quiet life with her husband, Clive. (Well, she does sometimes wonder about the way he talks to her, and about all the things she hasn't achieved yet. But, she's happy enough.) MEET DAN. He's definitely content - content with his predictable, ordered existence, making harps in his isolated barn on Exmoor. Content being on his own, far away from other people and - crucially - far away from any risk of surprises. What Ellie and Dan don't know yet, is that a chance encounter is about to change all of this . . . 'A beautiful love song of a story, wonderfully told with a warm heart and much hope' PHAEDRA PATRICK © Hazel Prior 2019 (P) Penguin Audio 2021"
