A staggering novel exploring masculinity, love and mental health from one of Granta's Best of Young British Novelists 2023

Owusu D: Borderline Fiction / B

Borderline Fiction

Venice. The perfect setting for romance, and for secrets to be shared. 'Stunning, utterly beautiful . . . Jill at her absolute best. One of the most beautiful love stories I've ever read' Jo Thomas Fen can't believe her luck. A luxury holiday with her beloved grandmother Disa - what could be more delightful? It doesn't cross her mind that she might fall in love. Or that love can bring complications . . . Jamie can't help it that women always fall for him, rather than for his kind-hearted friend Leon. Nor that only one of them got the looks (that would be Jamie). But how will he feel if the girl he's drawn to only has eyes for Leon? Disa has a secret. A few weeks ago, an old letter in a file revealed a shocking truth about her late husband. She's come to Venice to find out more. There's news on the way that will reverberate through all their lives, as Jill Mansell's joyful, heartbreaking new novel takes readers on a roller coaster ride of emotion - and makes us believe in love again. Acclaim for Jill's novels: 'Wonderful setting, fabulous plot lines' Milly Johnson 'Vintage Jill Mansell . . . a real ray of sunshine' Fabulous 'The queen of romantic, witty and heartwarming novels' Daily Express

'There is nothing like a Jill Mansell book to make the world feel better' Milly Johnson

Just One Look At You

'Absolutely obsessed. Savage, strange and spicy' Lucy Rose, author of Lamb Can 'no' be a declaration of love? What happens when love is savage, dangerous and all-consuming? In this gorgeous and unsettling collection, women navigate the complexities and cruelties of desire across time and place, from a medieval convent to a Victorian parlour to a 1990s high school. Intensely atmospheric, surprising and darkly funny, No &amp; Other Stories is a richly flavoured feast from a brilliant writer in full command of the form. 'Unsettling and addictive, glistening with transgressive thrills and erotic appetites' Daily Mail 'Gleefully depraved, gloriously queer and thrillingly bold' Leon Craig, author of Parallel Hells 'A dark delight, steeped in blood red honey' Heather Parry, author of Orpheus Builds A Girl 'A gothic homage to the visceral, haunting, unnerving nature of human connection' Alice Slater, author of Death of a Bookseller 'Full of strange beauty and shining humour' Stylist 'No one writes about the horrific and the erotic, and the tangled up intersections of both, like Kirsty Logan' Anna Bogutskaya, author of Feeding The Monster 'Darkly graceful, innovative, sexy and funny. Kirsty Logan is a jewel' Camilla Grudova, author of The Doll's Alphabet 'Crackling with smarts, marvellously formally varied, deliciously strange' Laird Hunt, author of Zorrie

Halo

"2552. The theocratic military alliance known as the Covenant is showing no mercy as it continues to assault every human world it encounters, but in the way lies humanity's greatest champion, the super-soldier Spartan John-117--the Master Chief. Together with his AI companion Cortana and the last remaining Spartans, the galaxy-spanning fight rages on two fronts following the destruction of the human military stronghold Reach by Covenant forces and the mysterious artificial ringworld known as 'Halo' at the hands of the Master Chief"--Back cover.

The New York Times bestselling aftermath of Halo: Combat Evolved featuring the Master Chief—part of the expanded universe based on the award-winning video game series! 2552. The theocratic military alliance known as the Covenant is showing no mercy as it continues to assault every human world it encounters, but in the way lies humanity’s greatest champion, the super-soldier Spartan John-117—the Master Chief. Together with his AI companion Cortana and the last remaining Spartans, the galaxy-spanning fight rages on two fronts following the destruction of the human military stronghold Reach by Covenant forces and the mysterious artificial ringworld known as “Halo” at the hands of the Master Chief. One faction—a squad of Spartans lead by Blue Team’s Fred-104 and Kelly-087—is trapped on the glassed surface of Reach, the only planet they’ve ever known as home. And beneath this ruined world, Dr. Catherine Halsey has discovered an ancient secret...one that could alter the course of the war. Meanwhile, the Master Chief and Cortana lead a second group toward a gathering of Covenant warships, as the United Nations Space Command’s worst nightmare has finally come true: the Covenant has discovered the location of Earth and is forming a massive fleet to utterly destroy it, as well as all who oppose the indomitable will of the Prophets…

Ordinary Saints

Penguin Modern Classics

'There is nothing more vivid or beautiful in all Joyce's writings. It has the searing clarity of truth' Sunday Times The portrayal of Stephen Dedalus's Dublin childhood and youth, his quest for identity through art and his gradual emancipation from the claims of family, religion and Ireland itself, is also an oblique self-portrait of the young James Joyce and a universal testament to the artist's 'eternal imagination'. 'Joyce's depiction of the early Dublin life of Stephen Dedalus towers over modern literature, providing a stylistic blueprint and creative touchstone for artists young and old' Guardian 'James Joyce was and remains almost unique among novelists in that he published nothing but masterpieces' The Times Literary Supplement With a new introduction by Joseph Brooker and notes by Steven Morrison.

The portrayal of Stephen Dedalus's Dublin childhood and youth, his quest for identity through art and his gradual emancipation from the claims of family, religion and Ireland itself, is also an oblique self-portrait of the young James Joyce and a universal testament to the artist's 'eternal imagination'. Both an insight into Joyce's life and childhood, and a unique work of modernist fiction, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a novel of sexual awakening, religious rebellion and the essential search for voice and meaning that every nascent artist must face in order to fully come into themselves.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

The City Girls series

'Warm, comforting and relevant' MARIAN KEYES

City Girls Forever

'A page-turning mystery. Spellbinding' Anya Bergman 'Captivating. A deeply satisfying, deftly woven novel of female power and resistance' Anna Hope 'Addictive and twisty' Liza Klaussman Two sisters. A shipwreck. A story demanding to be told . . . Iceland, 1910. In the middle of a severe storm two sisters - Freyja and Gudrún - rescue a mysterious, charismatic man from a shipwreck near their remote farm. Sixty-five years later, a young woman - Sigga - is spending time with her grandmother when they learn a body has been discovered on a mountainside near Reykjavik, perfectly preserved in ice. Moving between the turn of the 20th century and the 1970s as a dark mystery is unravelled, The Swell is a spellbinding, beautifully atmospheric read, rich in Icelandic myth.

The captivating, beautifully atmospheric Iceland-set dual-timeline mystery

The Swell

WINNER OF THE AKUTAGAWA PRIZE 'So bracing, so strange and humane . . . I loved it.' SHARLENE TEO, author of PONTI 'Funny . . . All the people in this novel are alive.' HIROMI KAWAKAMI, author of STRANGE WEATHER IN TOKYO 'Witty and sharp . . . I devoured it.' NATALIE SUE, bestselling author of I HOPE THIS FINDS YOU WELL 'A slim but impactful novel that will make you laugh and think' DAZED The power dynamics of the office are never more obvious than when it comes to food: mandatory lunches with the boss, the colleague who tries to curry favour with home-baked goods, discovering the discarded remnants of someone else's late-night binge . . . In their Saitama office, Ashikawa is the kind of woman Nitani knows he will likely marry: sweet, obliging, and determined to wean him off his addiction to instant noodles. But he finds himself increasingly unable to respect her - or the sugary treats she shares around the workplace, winning their colleagues' affection with baking rather than hard work. Oshio is bolder and uninhibited - she is Nitani's drinking buddy. In the oppressive office atmosphere, the pair grows closer, both outsiders struggling with the rigid status quo. Driven to behave in increasingly absurd ways by the workplace rules that govern their lives, they must navigate the tensions of modern life: between leisure and hard work; indulgence and restraint; the promise of delicious food, and the reality of a lonely pot noodle.

Country Escapes

Welcome to your new cottage in the country - complete with grumpy vet, village gossip and a very muddy dog . . . Heartbroken city girl Ella has retreated to her godmother's countryside home, determined to heal in peace. But the village locals - and a very mischievous Labrador named Tess - have other plans. As she's forced into wellies and fresh air, Ella meets people who make her question everything - and everyone - she thought she wanted. And when an unexpected face from her past appears, Ella is faced with a choice: return home to the future she always dreamed of, or take a leap of faith and follow the muddy pawprints towards a life - and love - she never expected to find... From the globally bestselling author comes a gorgeously romantic tale set in an idyllic countryside village - perfect for fans of Phillipa Ashley, Sarah Morgan and Jill Mansell. *Previously published under the name Jules Wake.*

A feel-good countryside romance

A Girl's Best Friend

In a small, sleepy town, a mediocre witch, in a mediocre marriage, tries to pass on her gifts to her twin daughters, who, it becomes immediately apparent, have skills far beyond her own. 'NDiaye at her most dazzling' Katie Kitamura 'This is NDiaye at her disquieting best' New York Magazine Lucie comes from a long line of witches, powers passed down from mother to daughter. Her own mum was formidable in her powers, but ashamed of her magic. Perhaps as a result, Lucie's own gift is weak: she can see into the future, sometimes - but more often, she can only see the present of some other location. Not very useful. And the worst part? All she can ever see are insignificant details - a scrap of outfit, the colour of the sky. Lucie's own children are initiated into their family's peculiar womanhood when they reach twelve years of age, and in a few short months, Maud and Lise are crying the curious tears of blood that denote their magical powers. Having learned, they take off quickly and fly the nest. Literally. Witty, dreamlike, vaguely unsettling, and utterly enchanting (pun intended), The Witch brings the mysteries of womanhood and motherhood into sharp relief and leaves us teetering on the edge, unbalanced by questions as seemingly unbreakable relationships break down left and right. Who is to blame for family failures? And how can you - can you? - build a nest that no one wants to fly?
