In the words of E. M. Foster, the difference between story and plot in novels can be summed up in a single word: pain. It is the pain that creates the plot. You might say that “Ramona” fits this definition as it tells the story of the passage from childhood to adolescence through all that journey’s pain.
This novella is built around a spiral with three different registers. It starts with a realist discourse, the blunt realism of mistreated women. It continues in a tone that is closer to noir, deliberately dark with flashes of humour.
A thirst for money, danger and adventure. Wit, audacity and a love of games. Meet history’s most cunning thieves in this entertaining look at the great robberies of the past two centuries.
Kat, Emma, Kibibi and Lilith are four girls who at first sight don't have much in common. But they are all royal witches and they must compete in the 118th Crown League. Each of them comes from a different country and hides a secret. But they are not the only ones. Their coven also includes Shin, the water master, who makes Kibbi's heart leap whenever she sees him.
