        Chesstomb

        by John Ethan Py

        A marketing strategy like "Blair Witch" with false documents and website   1922, Howard Phillips Lovecraft writes one of his most uncanny short stories: Herbert West, Reanimator. 2001, the murder of a family throws the city of Chesstomb deep into mourning. Recognised reporter Shelby Williams comes to investigate. Collecting a large amount of data, he slowly travels back through time. Until this darkly famous year of 1922, when a quarrel between doctors found its tragic end.

        De vondeling

        by Eva Maria Staal

        Agnes’s father is dying. As a child, Agnes was her father’s little princess; now, she questions whether he really loved her.   To banish her doubts, Agnes fantasises about her father on paper. Only when she reads what he himself wrote about his life, on a harsh journey to Germany at the end of the Second World War, does she understand who he was. But even then, her search is not over. What unfortunate event alienated them from each other? And what role does the adoption of Agnes’s daughter, Lima, play in their lives?   The Foundling is the magical, captivating story of Agnes, her father and Lima. It is an equally moving and witty novel about inescapable and self-chosen family ties, regret and forgiveness, written by one of the most original writers in Dutch literature.

        The Heart of Cocoa

        500 Years of Chocolate History

        by Napoleone Neri

        The temptation par excellence, that craving that suddenly arises and we cannot fight it unless we satisfy it: the desire for chocolate. Perhaps it is because of this power that it is called the most loved food on the planet. Or perhaps it is because its cultivation, production and consumption - which has been growing strongly in the last 10 years - are spread across all continents. Napoleon Neri tells its story, starting with the plant and its fruit, from the pioneers of chocolate, to the birth of confectionery factories in the 19th century and then the great modern industries. He describes in detail the processing and transformation of cocoa beans, their beneficial properties, the sensory characteristics of the finished product, and spices everything up with a thousand anecdotes and curiosities that only those who have lived and worked in this world for so long can know.
