City of Rats

'One of Spain's most acclaimed writers' New York Times 'Spain's finest contemporary novelist' Guardian A REDISCOVERED POST-WAR LOVE STORY FROM ONE OF SPAIN'S MOST ACCLAIMED AUTHORS. 1950s Barcelona. A rebellious daughter of a wealthy family meets an ambitious rogue at a party. Teresa was born with every advantage in life - beautiful, rich, charming and clever. Another left-wing university student in the wealthy neighbourhood of San Gervasio. Manolo has only ever existed on the margins. A poor immigrant from Murcia like him, stealing motorbikes for a living, could only ever dream of being with the daughter of the Catalan bourgeoisie - until now. Juan Marsé's masterpiece is an unforgettable portrait of post-war Barcelona - a modern classic on the power of desire and love, ambition and hope against all odds. 'Juan Marsé's contribution to European fiction has been consistently remarkable' Times Literary Supplement 'A memorable panorama of 1950s Barcelona and its wild heroism' Lluís Izquierdo 'The best storyteller Spanish literature has given us in many decades' Ignacio Echevarría 'He has never written a single page where something interesting isn't happening' Eduardo Mendoza

A Financial Times Book of the Year 2025

The multi-award winning literary phenomenon, translated by Booker Prize-shortlisted Megan McDowell

Six seconds. A man falling. An image that haunts her forever.

Returning to the Mexico of their childhood, Diego's sister is plagued with questions, beset with crippling grief and guilt. As she struggles to get her head and her heart around her brother's death, she sees the life they shared anew. Here she tells their story: that of the poor, the exploited, the outsider far from home, with quiet power and vibrant prose. As she does so, she asks herself how well she really knew the boy she tried so hard to raise. And what, in the end, makes a life worth living?

Rippled through with flashes of dark humour, Eating Ashes is a heartbreaking examination of home, of loneliness and belonging, separation and loss, from a critically acclaimed Latin American novelist.

Eating Ashes

The rivetingly tense and timely conclusion to the Arkady Renko series - an iconic character from a titan of the political crime thriller genre. When Arkady Renko is charged with investigating the murder of Alexei Kazasky, the Deputy Minister of Defence, he knows he has to tread carefully. Alexei Kazasky is a high-profile politician and has a complicated relationship with Putin. This investigation clearly has Kremlin approval, but, as with everything in Russia, things are not always what they seem. Already preoccupied with his developing Parkinson's, Arkady finds he has more to worry about. The war in Ukraine is gaining momentum, and his adopted son Zhenya has become involved with the Black Army, a Russo-Ukrainian group of hacktivists. Moreover, as Arkady digs deeper into Kazasky's murder, he realizes that the man's death may have been more politically motivated than he first assumed. Now it seems that the people behind the killing have him firmly in their crosshairs - but this time Arkady's life is not the only one on the line. PRAISE FOR MARTIN CRUZ SMITH: 'Does more on a page than most writers manage in a chapter. He is unique and irreplaceable' MICK HERRON 'Among the first of a new generation of writers who made thrillers literary' GUARDIAN 'One of those writers that anyone who is serious about their craft views with respect bordering on awe' VAL McDERMID¿ 'The undisputed master of the political crime thriller' ABIR MUKHERJEE 'One of the finest writers of our age' CHARLOTTE PHILBY&nbsp;

The final Arkady Renko novel, from one of the undisputed masters of the political thriller

All The Other Mothers Hate Me

Shortlisted for The Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year AwardHow much should one person give to make the world a better place?&nbsp;How much can one family take?**The hilarious, thought-provoking new novel from the Somerset Maugham and British Book Award-winning Ben Brooks**'Brooks is a frightening young talent.'&nbsp;Tim Key&nbsp;&nbsp;'I love Ben Brooks.' Matt Haig'This book made me laugh so much' Sathnam Sanghera'I really loved this book' Graham Norton'You'll not forget the Candlewicks once you meet them! This splendid, wry satire is about a wealthy family, self-important and confident in their morality, whose blithe and bumptious existences are thrown into disarray when their father clandestinely decides to give all their money to charity, and so (in their opinions) completely destroys their lives. Droll and all-too-real.' LitHub'A warmhearted tragicomedy about what it means to live a good life.' People Magazine 'A sharp-witted tragicomedy about money, morality, and a family teetering on the brink. A splendidly funny novel.' Jenny Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of Pineapple Street &nbsp; 'I'd like you to imagine that you're walking to work one day and you come upon a child drowning in a pool of water. But imagine that someone refused to jump in after the child on the grounds that it would ruin his three-hundred-pound pair of John Lobb loafers. We'd consider them utterly immoral, would we not?' Arthur Candlewick spends three days in a disused mineshaft with only his son's drug stash, a book on the concept of 'effective altruism' and a bottle of medium-priced Bordeaux for company. When he emerges, he has made the life-changing decision to become a good man. &nbsp; Deciding to sell the family timber business and give away his wealth to charity, Arthur's family become convinced that he has lost his mind. &nbsp; His university-bound daughter, Evangeline, wants to change the world but perhaps not at the cost of her own privileged life. &nbsp; His son, Emil, good at maths and not much else, becomes more distant than ever. &nbsp; And his wife, Yara, who arrives at airports four hours early and fears that AI and climate change will leave her children unemployed, just wants the doctor to run another brain scan on her husband. &nbsp; Incisive, hilarious and unflinchingly human, The Greatest Possible Good asks fundamental questions about what it means to live a good life while introducing the world to one of the great families of contemporary literature. 'Ben Brooks is a magical imp who pumps out dark nuggets of poetry and makes you snort with laughter.' Noel Fielding 'Brooks has the timing of a genius stand-up comic.' Richard Milward &nbsp; 'Ben Brooks is a writer who genuinely excites me.' Colin Herd, 3:AM Magazine

But what about the revolution?' Intricately built and wickedly humorous, these five interconnected short stories are all about one thing: money. From an interview with a child-star-turned-thief to the mysterious death of an employee at a drug manufacturer - or the couple feigning marital bliss to keep their inheritance, Ia Genberg carefully unravels the value we place on both money and people. What does it really mean to be in debt to someone? How does our financial worth permeate the ways we think and feel? And what do we lose when we supposedly win? Small Comfort skewers its characters, slyly implicating the reader along the way. A brilliantly original and thought-provoking collection from the author and translator of The Details, shortlisted for the 2024 International Booker Prize.

Small Comfort

Witty and wild' Harper's Bazaar 'A strange but uniquely beautiful concept of a love story that delves into care, compassion and what it is to be human' Stylist 'This is a sharp, funny and poignant look at what it means to connect with another being, and yourself' Weike Wang, New York Times Vi Liu's life is a mess. Having dropped out of college, she's stuck in a job she hates at a local hotel. Her ex-boyfriend has blocked her and she's lashing out at her family and co-workers. One night, drunk outside a drag club, she stumbles across a mysterious sentient blob. She takes it home, where she feeds it a diet of sugary cereal and reality TV. Slowly, she realises that she can shape the blob into her perfect man: someone attentive, outgoing and with more than a passing resemblance to Ryan Gosling. But is Bob the blob really the answer to all her problems, or a catalyst for further disaster? Sharp, strange and very funny, BLOB is a delightful story about growing up, fucking up and learning how to be a real person. 'Maggie Su's debut novel is nothing if not surprising.' The Times *Book of the Month* 'A modern-day Mrs. Caliban, BLOB is a book that looks at identity and desire in profoundly interesting ways' Kevin Wilson, author of Nothing to See Here 'Utterly original, charming and funny, weirdly real and really weird. I can't stop thinking about this book and I'm telling everyone I know to read it' Kate Davies, author of In at the Deep End

Pulled into the court system and mandated treatment, he finds himself in an absurd but dangerous situation: his class protects him but his race does not. It is just weeks after the death of his beloved roommate Elle, a glamorous member of the Black elite, and he is still reeling from the tabloid spectacle - as well as the lingering question of how well he really knew his closest friend and what happened to her the night she died. When he flees to his hometown of Atlanta and generations of his family of doctors and college presidents and lawyers - the weight of expectations haunts him. Then&nbsp;Carolyn, the closest friend he has left, goes off the rails, Smith returns to New York only to lose himself in his old life, drawn back into the city's underworld. Will his search for the truth about Elle cost him his freedom and his future? Smith goes on a dizzying journey through the New York City nightlife circuit, anonymous recovery rooms, Atlanta's Black society set, police investigations and courtroom dramas, and a circle of friends coming of age in a new era. Great Black Hope is a propulsive, glittering story about what it means to exist between worlds, to be upwardly mobile yet spiralling downward and how to find a way back to hope.

The Ghosts Of Rome

Worship the idol. Fall for the real girl. In a future Korea, those who can afford to have retreated from the ravaged world outside, slipping on virtual reality headsets to lose themselves in simulations of the past. But high school student Soop, unable to access VR, is bullied by her classmates for being forced to remain in the real world. Her only solace comes from the K-pop she listens to on repeat. When Yichae - Soop's favourite idol - comes to film a new music video at her school, Soop hopes this might be her chance at real connection. But Yichae has her own troubles. She is one of few remaining 'real' idols, celebrated for her authenticity, yet forced to live up to the unattainable beauty standards of her virtual counterparts. As Soop and Yichae are drawn closer through their shared love of music and unexpected feelings start to grow, both must question how to stay true to themselves and each other in an increasingly artificial world.
