Resumen del Editor
Nessuno parla mai dell'anno di grazia. È proibito. Nella Garner County, tutte le ragazze, al compimento del loro sedicesimo anno, vengono bandite dalla comunità e obbligate a vivere nella foresta per un anno, affinché sfoghino la loro magia nella natura selvaggia per poi tornare nella civiltà, sempre che sopravvivano, purificate e pronte per il matrimonio.
Nella società patriarcale in cui sono cresciute, infatti, si è convinti che a quell'età le ragazze abbiano il potere di persuadere gli uomini ad abbandonare i loro letti coniugali, di far perdere la testa ai coetanei e di far impazzire di gelosia le mogli. Si crede che la loro stessa pelle emani un forte afrodisiaco, l'essenza potente della gioventù, delle ragazze sul punto di diventare donne. Tierney James, però, non si sente potente. Né si sente magica. Ma, questo sì, sente che dietro l'esperienza che la attende si cela qualcosa di più spaventoso dei pericoli nascosti nella foresta o dei bracconieri pronti a rapire lei e le altre ragazze per ucciderle, farle a pezzi e venderle al mercato nero. La minaccia più grande e terribile potrebbe arrivare proprio dalle sue compagne di sventura, ma Tierney non è disposta a subire passivamente la sorte che le è stata assegnata...
Con prosa tagliente e crudo realismo, Le impure racconta i complessi legami che uniscono tra loro le ragazze - e le donne che saranno - e la necessità di opporsi con forza a una società troppo spesso ancora misogina e patriarcale che impedisce loro di esprimere in totale libertà i propri talenti.

Historia
Mary Lennox starts her life as an unhappy victim of circumstance. After the loss of her parents, she moves to rural Yorkshire to live with a distant uncle where she resents the wildness of the countryside. At first, she struggles to find a place in this new existence. Although unsure about her surroundings and its occupants, through the gentle guidance of the maid she gradually becomes interested in the story of Mrs Craven, who apparently used to spend her time in a garden at the house, the key to which has vanished.

Historia
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Historia
Eve looks like an ordinary 12-year-old girl, but there’s nothing ordinary about her. She has no last name. No parents or guardian. She’s on the run from a dangerous and secretive organization that will stop at nothing to track her down. And most astonishing of all: she’s a robot, a product of Eden Laboratories. When Eve discovers the truth, she realizes everything she thought she knew about herself is a lie. Eve manages to escape, fleeing the lab, the only home she’s ever known.
