Электронная книга: Tom Perrotta «Allesjäänud»
Mis juhtub, kui su elu ainsa hetkega pahupidi pööratakse? Kui su kaasa või laps sinu enda silme all õhku haihtub? Kas nad võeti taevasse või juhtus midagi muud, mida on veelgi raskem selgitada? Ja kuidas tuleks pärast säärast muserdavat sündmust oma eluga edasi minna? Nende küsimustega seisavad silmitsi elanikud Mapletoni linnakesest,kust kadus ära sadakond inimest. Uus linnapea Kevin Garvey tahab, et elu jätkuks ja et masendusse langenud inimesed suudaks taas millelegi loota ja sihikindlalt tegutseda. Samal ajal on tema enda pere lagunemas. Naine Laurie on ühinenud karmi sektiga, andnud vaikimisvande ja käib tänavatel inimesi viimse kohtumõistmisega heidutamas. Läinud on ka poeg Tom, kes hakkas pärast kõrgkoolist väljalangemist püha Wayne’i jüngriks ja turvab nüüd prohvetiks peetava mehe alaealistest tüdrukutest koosnevat haaremit. Koju on jäänud ainult teismeline tütar Jill, aga ka tema pole enam selline pailaps nagu varem, vaid tegeleb eneseotsingutega sootuks lihalikumas keskkonnas. See on jõuline ja sügavalt liigutav lugu tavalistest inimestest, kes näevad vaeva selle nimel, et säilitada usku tulevikku. Raamatu põhjal valmis 2014. aastal samanimeline HBO telesari, kus peaosas Justin Theroux. Издательство: "Eesti digiraamatute keskus OU" (2016)
