Ojeda M: Electric Shamans at the
Festival of the Sun

Electric Shamans at the Festival of the Sun

A painter. A priest. One hot New York summer. 'A genuinely swoony summer romance' New York Times 'Brilliant' Raven Leilani 'Stunning' Observer Wyeth is a newcomer to New York, a young Black painter who is trying to find his place in the contemporary Manhattan art scene. He shares a studio with his friends and earns money working for a gallery and an art restorer but he's struggling with his portrait painting, unable to truly capture the life of his subjects. Then he meets Keating, a white former priest struggling with his faith. The two men seemingly have nothing in common, and yet Keating shows Wyeth how to see the world anew. But as the men grow closer, the differences between them become more stark, until Wyeth and Keating must decide what they are willing to risk - for art and for love. 'One of the most perfect books I've ever read' NPR 'A piercing, precise, and affecting tale of young love and high art' Kirkus 'One of the most accomplished, important novelists of his generation' Guardian 'Brandon Taylor is without a doubt our laureate of hyper-intelligent yearning - nobody does it better' Lit Hub

FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR 'An inspired set-up. A clever dynamic that paves the way for a cat-and-mouse thriller. Propulsive.' SUNDAY TIMES 'A maze-like game of revenge. Unsettling. Blends a critique of wellness culture with a slow-burn feminist thriller.' OBSERVER 'If you spend all of January trying to avoid diet culture, then you need to read this book.' COSMOPOLITAN All Liam ever wanted was to help me reach my full potential. And he always knew what was best. Until the day he pushed me far beyond my limits, and I walked out of our flat and away from our relationship to good. Now, two years on, I am stronger, fitter, healthier than ever before. And then I see him - Liam - those green eyes, those stirring muscles. Something inside me flips. I want revenge, and I'm willing to do almost anything to get it. I hold the power now. It's Liam's turn to sweat. 'Will have you glued to the story through every twist and turn. I absolutely adored it!' KATE HAMER, bestselling author of The Girl in the Read Coat 'Sweat is like nothing I've ever read before. So addictive it made me miss a tube stop, so unsettling it made me think twice about going to the gym!'

It had me holding my breath until the final, brilliant end' JENNIE GODFREY, No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of The List of Suspicious Things

Family Drama

This story collection is a welcome port of entry for any reader not yet familiar with Marguerite Yourcenar's works. Published to great acclaim in France in 1993, this collection is not only a delight for Marguerite Yourcenar fans but a welcome port of entry for any reader not yet familiar with the author's lengthier, more demanding works. This collection includes three stories written between 1927 and 1930 when the author was in her mid-twenties. These stories cover a range of themes, from an allegory on greed and a scene from the war of the sexes to a witch hunt that obsessively creates its own quarry. For the devoted readers of Yourcenar, this collection allows a rare glimpse at the beginnings of a writer's craft. In these accomplished but forgotten pieces, edited and introduced by her biographer, Josyane Savigneau, readers will find the blend of fable and fairy tale of Oriental Tales, the psychological chronicle of Dear Departed, and the ironic realism of A Coin in Nine Hands. Read as an introduction to Yourcenar's work, the stories take us into the writer's workshop, as it were, to the early days of creation. A Blue Tale and Other Stories carries the unmistakable voice of a formidable and vastly talented writer. Marguerite Yourcenar (her pseudonym was an anagram of her family name, Crayencour) was born in Brussels in 1903 and died in Maine in 1987. One of the most respected writers in the French language, she is best known as the author of the acclaimed Memoirs of Hadrian and The Abyss. She was awarded many literary honors, most notably election to the Académie Française in 1980, the first woman so honored.

The Astral Library (Deluxe Limited Edition)

From the author of&nbsp;Hollow Kingdom,&nbsp;a fantastically funny story featuring a cast of colorful characters in a dying Italian village and a giant truffle that changes their fate forever in this “deliciously absurd tale....I savored every page of this book.” (Shelby Van Pelt, author of&nbsp;Remarkably Bright Creatures) A 2025&nbsp;Washington Post Notable Work of Fiction After nearly losing the election to a geriatric donkey, newly installed Mayor Delizia Miccuci can’t help but feel like the sun has finally set on the rural Italian village of Lazzarini Boscarino. Tourists only stop by to ask for directions, Nonna Amara’s cherished&nbsp;ristorante&nbsp;is long shuttered, and the town hall is disgustingly overrun with&nbsp;glis glis&nbsp;poo—even Postman Duccio has been disgraced. All that’s left is Bar Celebrità, a rustic establishment where weary locals gather to quibble over decades-long disputes, submit their poor stomachs to bartender Giuseppina’s volcanic espresso, and wonder what will become of the place where together they’ve spent their entire lives. &nbsp; Little do the villagers know that local truffle hunter Giovanni Scarpazza has just happened upon something that could change everything. A truffle—un&nbsp;tartufo, that is—sits beneath the soil with the power to either be the greatest gift or the foulest curse the village has ever seen. Written with the same enchanting style and raucous humor that defines&nbsp;Hollow Kingdom&nbsp;and&nbsp;Feral Creatures, Tartufo is a reflection on the interconnectedness of life in all its manifestations—and how holding on to harmony in the face of hardship can grow something beautiful and rare beneath the surface.

'Delectable... a pleasure to read' THE TIMES 'A riveting tale of three generations, this is storytelling at its finest' JOHN BOYNE 'Utterly absorbing, a big, sweeping story of family and identity' EDEL COFFEY 'Why hadn't she said to her daughter I love you beyond reason and none of this matters at all and every day that you breathe is a gift?' Rafaela remembers everything that matters: her beautiful childhood in San Juan, her marriage to Peter, uprooting their children, Ruth and Benny, to the American Midwest, and losing all sense of her place in the world. So she tells no one when her memory begins to slip. Her daughter, in New York with a family of her own, wishes she could forget her muddy feelings about where she comes from - the same feelings which motivated her 22-year-old daughter Daisy to reconnect with their past. Daisy, who has momentarily forgotten everything, hears the word critical in a hospital room in San Juan and remembers, all at once, the car that hurtled towards her, the terrible storm, and something else. What was it? Now Ruth and Rafaela must return to the city where it all began, to gather by Daisy's bedside and confront the twists of fate that have caused a growing rift in their family and led them to this moment.
