#1 GLOBAL BESTSELLER WITH MORE THAN 8 MILLION COPIES SOLD • Meet Elizabeth Zott: “a gifted research chemist, absurdly self-assured and immune to social convention” (The Washington Post) in 1960s California whose career takes a detour when she becomes the unlikely star of a beloved TV cooking show. • STREAM ON APPLE TV+ This novel is “irresistible, satisfying and full of fuel” (The New York Times Book Review) and “witty, sometimes hilarious...the Catch-22 of early feminism” (Stephen King, via Twitter). A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, Oprah Daily, Entertainment Weekly, Newsweek Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.  But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America’s most beloved cooking show Supper at Six. Elizabeth’s unusual approach to cooking (“combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride”) proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn’t just teaching women to cook. She’s daring them to change the status quo.   Laugh-out-loud funny, shrewdly observant, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrant as its protagonist.

Tres grandes autores. Tres mundos reconocibles. Tres distopías maestras. Presentamos un pack con tres obras fundamentales del siglo XX: Un mundo feliz (1932), 1984 (1949) y Fahrenheit 451 (1953). Sin ninguna duda, pocas novelas de anticipación han sido tan influyentes como estas en la imaginación literaria posterior. Pero las visiones de sus autores no solo han cambiado el rumbo de la literatura, sino que también parecen haber anunciado la realidad de nuestros días. Desde la fractura social vislumbrada por Aldous Huxley hasta la posverdad prevista por George Orwell, pasando por la anestesia consumista denunciada por Ray Bradbury, reconocemos en estas ficciones muchos de nuestros males actuales, hasta el punto de que llegamos a preguntarnos si no estaremos viviendo en una distopía. Sin embargo, estas novelas no se agotan en sus profecías. De un modo quizá más importante, constituyen una poderosa advertencia sobre los futuros que pueden evitarse. En el reverso de las tres historias, cuya fuerza se realza al leerlas en conjunto, se oculta una viva defensa de la libertad, el pensamiento crítico y la responsabilidad individual y colectiva. Sobre las obras: «Un mundo feliz retrata una utopía perfecta o su horrendo opuesto, una distopía: sus hermosos habitantes viven seguros y libres de enfermedades y preocupaciones, pero lo hacen de un modo que, queremos creer, sería inaceptable para nosotros.» Margaret Atwood «Ninguna obra fantástica ha alcanzado el horror lógico de 1984.» Arthur Koestler «De entre todos los infiernos del conformismo, Fahrenheit 451 ofrece el retrato más convincente.» Kingsley Amis «Aldous Huxley fue un hombre extraordinariamente profético, no hay otro novelista en el siglo XX que haya escrito una guía más sagaz del futuro.» J.G. Ballard «La virtud de libros como 1984 es su capacidad para recordarnos que la libertad de los seres humanos responsables no es igual a la de los animales.» Anthony Burgess «Fahrenheit 451 es una fábula perfecta.» Ursula K. Le Guin
