Her father has recently been diagnosed with liver cancer and her elder sister Miriam''s main preoccupation is to get out of their small, close-minded village as soon as possible.

Salomé was bullied for years and no one did a single thing to help her.
One day she finally snapped.
Now at just sixteen years old, she's being held in a secure unit for young offenders

Salomé's counsellor, the man whose good opinion is key to her release, is best known for his racist gaffes on reality TV. Her father has recently been diagnosed with liver cancer and her elder sister Miriam's main preoccupation is to get out of their small, close-minded village as soon as possible. Both at home and in the unit, things are unbearably tense.

Salomé finds it hard to keep her temper and harder still to think about the crime she is charged with committing. But as time passes, she finds new strength to delve into the reasons for her rage and arrive at her own understanding of punishment, penitence and the paradoxical demands made on her existence as a Black woman. Raw and unsentimental, Confrontations is a powerful depiction of racism and resilience from one of the Netherlands' most exciting new literary voices.

Confrontations

Meet Mariddja: eccentric, 85-years-old, with not too long to live. When she learns of her cancer diagnosis, there is only one thing she can think of - how to keep the diagnosis from her husband Biera, and how to find someone who can take care of him once she's gone. Meet Kaj: a recent transplant to the village, recently-engaged to Mimmi, and recently mourning the death of his mother Laura. One day, when Kaj unexpectedly finds a box of Sami handicrafts belonging to his mother, he unlocks something he never quite anticipated, something that will change his life for years to come... A novel of humour and devastation, lyricism and tenderness, Those Who Sow in Snow introduces a cast of loveable, quirky characters grappling with the consequences of loving and losing someone, and the consequences of forgetting and remembering history.

As an Irish-American family gathers for Thanksgiving weekend at their home on Long Island, they must confront the decades-old tragedy that haunts them all.

The Irish Goodbye

I find it funny that London still has street buskers. Like the band on the Titanic, buskers will play us straight through a mass extinction event. If you liked SEVERANCE and SUCH A FUN AGE, you'll love BAD VIBES. Hope isn't having fun coming of age during the uncoming of an age. One, she's the only black girl at school. Two, her activist parents just got fired. And when not casually surviving the end of times, she's basically invisible next to her blindingly blonde frenemy. A decade later, Hope is the uncredited workhorse behind the biggest fundraising charity on Earth. That is until she's chosen to lead a spiritual retreat for the elite - but as the weekend degenerates into ayahuasca-fuelled chaos, her big break might just end up breaking the system... BAD VIBES is a hilarious debut novel about hope and the struggle of keeping it alive as the world crumbles into a steaming cesspool of white supremacy and single-use plastic. PRAISE FOR AJA BARBER:'Powerful... Essential' LAYLA SAAD'A voice we MUST listen to' CLEMENTINE FORD'SUCH integrity. Aja is no bullsh*t' FLORENCE GIVEN
