Naudé S: Fathers and Fugitives / B

Fathers and Fugitives

Penguin Modern Classics

'A great comic vision, one of the few books of the world that can make us laugh aloud on nearly every page' - Anthony Burgess James Joyce's final work, Finnegans Wake, conjures up the dark underground worlds of sexuality and dream with supreme linguistic virtuosity. Here Joyce undermines traditional storytelling and the English language, and confronts the different kinds of betrayal - cultural, political and sexual - that he saw at the heart of Irish history. Dazzlingly inventive, with passages of great lyrical beauty and humour, Finnegans Wake remains one of the most remarkable works of the twentieth century. 'Here words are not the polite contortions of twentieth-century printer's ink. They are alive. They elbow their way on to the page, and glow and blaze and fade and disappear' Samuel Beckett With a new introduction by Brian Fox.

Finnegans Wake

Deviants

Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2025 by The Washington Post, Debutiful, San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, and LitHub Publishers Weekly Writer to Watch for Spring 2025 'This novel has all the ingredients of a Native American Succession' Sunday Times 'A blistering work'&nbsp;New York Magazine 'A big-minded book about small-town politics'&nbsp;Kirkus&nbsp;(starred review) 'Hickey's polished debut novel takes place in a few fraught days preceding an election at the fictional Passage Rouge Indian Reservation in northern Wisconsin...At its heart, this is a novel about the difficulties of belonging to a family or a community while plagued by an unsettled conscience and about the ways in which ambition and power can have drastic results on any playing field'&nbsp;Booklist There, There meets The Night Watchman in this gripping literary debut about power and corruption, family, and facing the ghosts of the past. Mitch Caddo, a young law school graduate and aspiring political fixer, is an outsider in the homeland of his Anishinaabe ancestors. But alongside his childhood friend, Tribal President Mack Beck, he runs the government of the Passage Rouge Nation, and with it, the tribe’s Golden Eagle Casino and Hotel. On the eve of Mack’s reelection, their tenuous grip on power is threatened by a nationally known activist and politician, Gloria Hawkins, and her young aide, Layla Beck, none other than Mack’s estranged sister and Mitch’s former love. In their struggle for control over Passage Rouge, the campaigns resort to bare-knuckle political gamesmanship, testing the limits of how far they will go—and what they will sacrifice—to win it all. But when an accident claims the life of Mitch’s mentor, a power broker in the reservation’s political scene, the election slides into chaos and pits Mitch against the only family he has. As relationships strain to their breaking points and a peaceful protest threatens to become an all-consuming riot, Mitch and Layla must work together to stop the reservation’s descent into violence. Thrilling and timely, Big Chief is an unforgettable story about the search for belonging—to an ancestral and spiritual home, to a family, and to a sovereign people at a moment of great historical importance.

Big Chief

Christopher Isherwood Inside Out

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Wild and Wicked Things comes a dark gothic fantasy about intoxication, obsession and a desperate hunger for knowledge, whatever the cost. 'A queer fairy tale of toxic romance that echoes with longing' Tanya Pell, author of Her Wicked Roots Thora Grieve finds herself destitute and an outcast after the sudden death of her husband, but a glimmer of hope arrives when a family friend offers her the chance to study botany under a famed professor.

She's finally found the freedom to pursue her darkest desires, but will it be worth the price? 'This Vicious Hunger will consume you like a sweet poison.

This Vicious Hunger

'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.

Yesteryear

The beautiful new novel that will make you laugh and cry, from the global bestselling author of Anxious People and A Man Called Ove.&nbsp; 'A stunning, sweeping, extraordinary story of connection, love, and the unbreakable bonds that guide and shape us. Full of humour and heart, My Friends is simply wonderful' CHRIS WHITAKER&nbsp; 'Warm, kooky, emotional, reflective, introspective, traumatic, cathartic, lovely. Epic book. Deeply human writer. The kind of book that can be a friend itself' MATT HAIG&nbsp; * AN INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * * WINNER OF GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD FOR BEST FICTION 2025 * * SHORTLISTED FOR AMAZON'S BEST FICTION BOOK OF 2025 * * AN AUDIBLE BEST LISTEN OF 2025 * * A BARNES AND NOBLE NATIONAL BOOK CLUB PICK * You have to take life for granted, the artist thinks, the whole thing: sunrises and slow Sunday mornings and water balloons and another person's breath against your neck. That's the only courageous thing a person can do. In the corner of a world-famous painting, three tiny figures sit on the end of a pier, a secret hidden in plain sight.&nbsp; Twenty-five years ago, a group of teenagers found solace in each other during one unforgettable summer. Their friendship inspired a transcendent work of art, a painting that now mysteriously belongs to eighteen-year-old aspiring artist Louisa. Driven to learn the story behind its creation, Louisa embarks on a journey to the seaside town where it all began. But as she gets closer to the painting's birthplace, Louisa learns that happy endings do not always take the form we expect. Fredrik Backman returns with an unforgettably funny, deeply moving tale of four teenagers whose friendship creates a bond so powerful that it changes a complete stranger's life years later. Readers can't get enough of My Friends . . . (***** five star reviews) 'It was perfect. I have no other words to describe this masterpiece. Like, what the hell was I doing all these years??' 'I haven't read a friendship story this genuine, heartfelt, clumsy, straightforward, smart, sentimental, shocking, and emotionally resonant in a very long time.' 'Is it too early in the year to pick my favourite read of 2025? I think not, as this will be hard to beat.' 'Backman remains my absolute favorite.' 'Absolutely brilliant and beautiful ...&nbsp;I loved, loved, loved this book.'

Alcott Hall

'The French noir novel you need to help you vent your frustrations right now' LitHub Murder isn't always ugly. Aimée is drop-dead gorgeous, razor-sharp, and lethally efficient. A killer with a cool head and a taste for chaos, she arrives in the backwater town of Bléville - a festering stew of grudges, corruption, and small-town rot - ready to make a killing. It's a game she's played before: stir up trouble, pit the locals against one another, then disappear with blood on her hands and money in her pocket. But this time, something breaks and the game turns on her. Jean-Patrick Manchette transformed the crime novel into a weapon of satire and stylish mayhem. Fatale is his bloodiest, funniest, and most brilliantly unhinged work: a riot of revenge, farce, and gleeful destruction. PRAISE FOR JEAN-PARICK MANCHETTE 'Manchette was Le Homme... We must revere him now and rediscover him this very instant. ' James Ellroy 'A comedic genius... I read and reread him, stunned, appalled, and laughing out loud' Rachel Kushner 'Manchette is one of the greatest writers since Dashiell Hammett, his only true son and heir' David Peace 'Manchette is Camus on overdrive... He deserves much the same attention' James Sallis 'Manchette is legend among all of the crime writers I know, and with good reason: his novels never fail to stun and thrill from page one' Duane Swierczynski
