She needed a getaway. What she found was a home. When Louise surprises her boyfriend by returning early from a work trip, safe to say she wasn't expecting to see him in flagrante with another woman. Heart-torn and vowing to stay away from men, when Louise's next project involves restoring an ageing hotel in Italy, she leaps at the chance to get away.

Managed by a crew of sextagenarians, the Grand Hotel del Monferrato needs all the love and care Louise can give it. But it's hard to stay focused on the job when her thoughts keep straying to Vito, the reclusive and mysterious neighbour. With his tragic past and her no-romance policy, Louise knows they can't have a future.

Yet something keeps pulling the two together... A beautiful romance set in the hills of Turin, perfect for readers of Lucy Coleman and Alex Brown. Praise for An Escape to Remember' The story was compelling and entertaining, I rooted for the characters and liked the storytelling.

A journey to find Norway's supposed bliss makes for a comic travelogue that asks, seriously, what makes Norwegians so damn happy-and does it translate? Norway is usually near or at the top of the World Happiness Report. But is it really one of the happiest countries on Earth? Eric Dregni had his doubts. Years ago he and his wife had lived in this country his great-great-grandfather once fled.

When their son Eilif was born there, the Norwegian government paid for the birth, gave them $5,000, and deposited $150 into their bank account every month, but surely happiness was more than a generous health care system. What about all those grim months without sun? When Eilif turned fifteen, father and son decided to go back together and investigate. For the Love of Cod is their droll report on the state of purported Norwegian bliss.

Arriving in May, a month of festivals and eternal sun, the Dregnis are thrust into Norway at its merriest-and into the reality of the astronomical cost of living, which forces them to find lodging with friends and relatives. But this gives them an inside look at the secrets to a better life. It's not the massive amounts of money flowing from the North Sea oil fields but how these funds are distributed that fuels the Norwegian version of democratic socialism-resulting in miniscule differences between rich and poor.

Locals introduce them to the principles underlying their avowed contentment, from an active environmentalism that translates into flyskam (flight shame), which keeps Norwegians in the family cabin for the long vacations prescribed by law and charges a 150 percent tax on gas guzzlers (which, Eilif observes, means more Teslas seen in one hour than in a year in Minnesota!). From a passion for dugnad or community volunteerism and sakte or "slow," a rejection of the mad pace of modernity, to the commodification of Viking history and the dark side of Black Metal music that turns the idea of quaint, traditional Norway upside down, this idiosyncratic father and son tour lets readers, free of flyskam, see how, or whether, Norwegian happiness translates.

With stunning locations and page-turning tension, The Paris Secret is an intense and gripping tale from bestselling author Karen Swan, the perfect escapism for fans of Santa Montefiore. Not every door should be opened . .

Somewhere along the cobbled streets of Paris, an apartment lies thick with dust and secrets: full of priceless artworks hidden away for decades. High-flying fine art agent Flora from London, more comfortable with the tension of a million-pound auction than a cosy candlelit dinner for two, is called in to assess these suddenly discovered treasures.

As an expert in her field, she must trace the history of each painting and discover who has concealed them for so long. Thrown in amongst the glamorous Vermeil family as they move between Paris and Antibes, Flora begins to discover that things aren't all that they seem, while back at home her own family is recoiling from a seismic shock. The terse and brooding Xavier Vermeil seems intent on forcing Flora out of his family's affairs - but just what is he hiding? 'The next best thing to jumping on the Eurostar and being there' - Chris Manby, author of Three Days in Florence. `Escaping into a world of art, beauty and heartbreaking history, I was caught on page one and didn't put it down until I finished it' - Liz Fenwick, author of The Cornish House.

From the Iran-Iraq War through the Occupation, this collection of fictional short stories presents an uncompromising view of the relationship between the West and Iraq, as well as a haunting critique of the postwar refugee experience. Blending allegory with historical realism and subverting expectations in an unflinching comedy of the macabre, these tales manage to be both phantasmagoric and shockingly real. For all the despair and darkness portrayed in these gripping stories, from spotlighting hostage-video makers in Baghdad to following human trafficking in Serbia's forests, what lingers more than the haunting images of war is the spirit of defiance and of indefatigable courage.

Rock star Alexandre Bleach might be dead, but he has a secret.

Aïcha wants to know the truth behind the death of her mother, Vodka Satana. And if she finds the bastards responsible, she wants to make them pay, whatever Céleste thinks of her plan.

Céleste wants Aïcha to get a grip and stop hanging around with Subutex's gang of disciples. The Hyena wants to find the Bleach tapes. She wants to untangle her complicated feelings about Anaïs, her boss' assistant. And speaking of her boss, she does not want Laurent Dopalet to discover how badly she has double-crossed him. Laurent Dopalet wants the Hyena to find and destroy the Bleach tapes. He wants to forget he ever knew Vodka Satana. He wants people to stop graffitiing his apartment with ludicrous allegations. Above all, he wants people to understand: none of this is his fault.

Against a backdrop of rural Portuguese poverty, a handful of magical characters are living out their destiny: Jose, a shepherd, who is visited by a devil whispering violent words in his ear; Moises and Elias, Siamese twins joined at the tip of their little fingers; Gabriel, a wise man, who is over one hundred years old; and an unnamed character who sits writing alone in a windowless room. The characters are universal, and they are all at the mercy of fate - their lives are pulled in different directions and sometimes even suffocated and snuffed out.

Lisbon's charm is legendary, but its vibrant 2,000-year history is not widely known, from its Roman legacy to its centuries under Moorish rule. Its journey from port town to Portugal's capital was not always smooth sailing-in 1755 the city was devastated by the largest earthquake ever to strike modern Europe, followed by a catastrophic tsunami and a six-day inferno that turned sand to glass. Barry Hatton unearths these forgotten memories in a vivid account of Lisbon's colourful past and present, bringing to life the 1147 siege during the Iberian reconquista, the assassination of the king, the founding of a republic and the darkness of a modern dictatorship.

He reveals the rich, international heritage of Portugal's metropolis-the gateway to the Atlantic and the unrivalled Queen of the Sea.

Hvem var Norges første profesjonelle idrettsutøver? Mons Monsen Øyri fra Sogn, kjent over hele Europa som Mensen Ernst, er svaret. Han var i sin tid en Europas største stjerner.

I 1832 ble Mensen Ernst kjendis for å løpe fra Paris til Moskva på 14 dager! I "Løperkongens skygge" tar forfatteren med seg sin nylig kreftfriske venn Øyvind Torp på samme rute. Løpeturen går naturlig nok i et annet tempo enn Ernst, og vi blir med forfatteren på en helt annerledes reise. Fra vest til øst, fra fortid til nåtid.

Løperkongens skygge er en hyllest til menneskets viljestyrke og Europas historie. På ferden over kontinentet mot Russland deler Ulstein og løpekameraten opplevelser og tanker om historien de løper gjennom, om egne drømmer og alle drømmene landskapet rundt dem en gang har vært hjem til.

Geir Stian Ulstein (f. 1982) er kritikerrost forfatter av bl.a. bøkene Drømmenes fjell, Selvforsvar mot kreft og sykkelboka Tour Dø France. Han er historiker og entusiast med en skriveevne som fyller teksten med engasjement og nøye gjengitt kunnskap.

Dette er en bok om reiser. Faktiske reiser og mentale reiser. For unge revolusjonære fra hele Europa, inkludert Norge, var Albania fra slutten av 1960-tallet et valfartssted og et studieobjekt for revolusjonære drømmer. Dette er en bok om forfatterens egne reiser som politisk turist og kader i AKP(m-l) på 1970-tallet og nye reiser med kritisk selvrefleksjon etter kommunismens fall. Han har intervjuet tidligere politiske fanger som de politiske turistene på 1970-tallet ikke møtte. Snakket med vanlige mennesker om deres liv før, under og etter diktaturets fall i 1990.

Det er også en reise i Albanias historie som viser at autoritære trekk fra kommunismen lever videre under en demokratisk fasade i dagens Albania. Turistreiser i regi av Vennskapssambandet Norge-Albania ble arrangert over samme lest fra år til år fra slutten av 1960-tallet til begynnelsen av 1980-tallet. Reisemålet var av ml-ere karakterisert som «sosialismens fyrtårn i Europa». Mange tusen nordmenn var med på disse reisene til Albania. Det grunnleggende spørsmålet i denne boka er dette: Hvordan kunne tusenvis av norske revolusjonære støtte og beundre regimet til Enver Hoxha som var et brutalt diktatur med fengsling og henrettelser av politiske fanger?

I «Skolopenderen danser» reiser vi med Wolf til Roma, Paris og Asmara. Øysteins assosiative og vilt kreative språk løper i alle retninger - samtidig. Her er humor, kåtskap og alvor - sinne, galskap og latter. Boken består av to korte og eventyrlige romaner: «Skolopenderen danser» og «Hestetimen». Alle hovedpersonene er unge kvinner. Vi følger disse gjennom hverdag og drøm; på reiser du aldri vil glemme.

Øystein Wingaard Wolf (f. 1958) er i en kategori for seg selv på litteratur- og kulturfeltet. Vi har å gjøre med en av de store språkkunstnerne i landet. Ikke bare som lyriker og romanforfatter har han gjort seg bemerket, han er også en begavet låtmaker og sanger. Dessuten har han oppfunnet elefantdansen.

Fra 13. mai til 1. oktober 2015 vandret Øivind Østang fra Oslo som pilegrim gjennom Europa, fra Frederikshavn i Nord-Jylland til sentrum i den kristne kulturkrets: Roma. Her er beretningen dag for dag, slik han rapporterte på Facebook underveis. I tekst og bilder formidler han det han så og tenkte der og da, gjennom de samme landskap som nordiske pilegrimer vandret i århundrer inntil den lutherske reformasjonen stanset dem på 1500-tallet. På Jylland og gjennom Schleswig-Holstein fulgte han den gamle hovedveien som nå igjen er blitt vandringsvei: Hærvejen og Ochsenweg. Fra Stade ved Hamburg fulgte han den nymerkede versjonen av en gammel hovedvei gjennom Tyskland, Østerrike og Italia: Via Romea Germanica. To uker bak ham fulgte stafettvandringen Pilgrims Crossing Borders, fra Trondheim til Roma. Østang er den første som har gått Via Romea Germanica sammenhengende fra Stade til Roma. Men også i nyere tid har det gått folk før ham fra Norge og sørover. I 2011 gikk Ole Gjerdrum Oslo - Roma via Köln og Rheims. I 1929 gikk Olav Gullvåg, han som senere skulle skrive Spelet om Heilag Olav, med sin familie fra Skagen i Nord-Jylland til Mori i Nord-Italia. Dagsrapportene rammes inn av begrunnelse for vandringen, fakta om veiene og tanker om tidens økende interesse for å vandre langsomt mot hellige steder igjen.

ITMB is pleased to introduce an exciting new map of the wonderful city of Vienna, combined with a newly-prepared map of eastern Austria. Until WW2, Vienna was one of the most diverse and cultural cities in Europe. The NAZI takeover changed all of that and its brutal capture by the Russians five years later sent the city into a devastating downturn. Fortunately, the Soviet Union was forced to withdraw and Austria declared to be a demilitarized neutral country for the rest of the Cold War. Vienna is now a lovely historic city on the Danube River, the capital of Austria, and the European United Nations centre. The Innerstadt (Inner or old city centre) is the location of many of the hotels gracing Vienna, as well as St, Stephen’s Cathedral with its wonderful roof. One of the great attractions of the city is the Schonbrunn, the 18th Century palace of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The map extends from the western ring road to the UN complex east of the Danube, and from the northern edge of the urban area to south of the Hauptbahnhof (or main railway station). All Metro and tram lines are clearly shown, along with parks, churches, shopping areas, hotels, and the city’s three rail stations. The second side of the sheet is a very detailed map of the eastern half of Austria from the /Czech border on the north, the Hungarian border to the east, to the Slovenian border to the south, and west to Linz and Klagenfurt. Rail lines are prominently noted, as are motorways and all highways. Once one leaves Vienna, a vista of rural mountainous countryside unfolds, with dozens of ancient castles to explore, and interesting small towns to explore. Burg Hochosterwitz is one of Europe’s most ancient castles, dating from 860AD.

The many islands off the coast of Greece can only be mapped properly a few at a time. Side 1 of this map shows the large island of Crete in good detail, with the relatively nearby island of Mykonos and its adjacent island of Rinia and the island of Santorini, with its adjacent islands of Thirasia and Nea Kameni being shown in great detail. A locality map showing the islands in relation to the rest of Greece is included as an inset. It is our intention to map more islands as time passes, but this depends upon future research trips (we lead a hard life!).

Side 2 of the map is a general map of Greece in relation to its neighbours to the north and east. The Mediterranean is divided into smaller seas, such as the Adriatic along the coast of Croatia, the Ionian to the west of Greece, the Myrtoan to its south and the Aegean to its east. All this area is replete with islands and geopolitical conflicts. As such, this map is useful for showing the region as an entity that links the Balkan states to the eastern Mediterranean.
