MacLean Sarah: These Summer Storms / LF

These Summer Storms

*THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* 'Unputdownable' COSMOPOLITAN 'Addictive, nostalgic and comforting' CLAIRE DAVERLEY Pen and Alice, childhood best friends from Toronto, are in their first year at the University of Edinburgh. Each has come to the city for her own reasons. Pen knows her divorced parents back in Canada are hiding something from her. She believes she'll find the answer here in Scotland, where an old friend of her father's - now a famous writer known as Lord Lennox - lives. When she is invited to spend the weekend at Lennox's centuries-old estate with his enveloping, fascinating family, Pen begins to unravel her parents' secret, just as she's falling in love for the first time . . . Meanwhile Alice, an aspiring actor, sees university as her route to the West End and beyond. The star of this year's theatre production, she's making the most of the power she wields as an object of desire - until an affair with her tutor begins to slip from her control. Witty, warm and wildly unputdownable, The Life Cycle of the Common Octopus is at once a love story and an irresistible mystery, a celebration of female friendship, and a study of how looking back can help us move forward.

But Rose's attraction to their married boss, literary titan Edward David Adams, threatens to drive a wedge between them. 2022 Once upon a time in publishing, editors had their own offices. But now, to her great chagrin, Rebecca Blume of Avenue Publishing must share custody of a 'hot desk' with Ben Heath, editor at rival imprint Hawk Mills. What starts as a battle of passive-aggressive Post-it notes about an unwatered cactus notes escalates after the death of renowned writer Edward David Adams. He has left behind an unpublished manuscript, and Ben and Rebecca are soon vying for the career-making opportunity to publish it. But when Rebecca discovers that the manuscript contains a decades-old secret about her mother, Jane, she is determined to stop it from seeing the light of day. Can she persuade her infuriating (and annoyingly handsome) rival deskmate to let it go? A funny, sexy, unexpectedly moving novel that weaves a contemporary workplace romance with a gripping historical narrative set in the 1980s New York publishing industry.

'Excellent' New York Times 'An instant classic. . . Hamlet but with goats everywhere' Washington Post 'Beautifully weird, eerie, unexpected - a story for our times' Kevin Barry 'A work of genius. Eradication is a beautiful and devastating novel' Luke Kennard 'A deft, unsettling exploration of what it means to play God' Maria Reva A moving fable in which a grieving man, confronts a broken world on an island overpopulated by goats. Reeling from tragedy, a former jazz musician-turned-schoolteacher named Adi answers a job listing advertising a chance to save the world. The assignment: to spend five weeks alone on the tiny, isolated Pacific Island of Santa Flora and reckon with its invasive population of goats that's sent the ecological balance severely out of whack.. What follows, however, is anything but balanced. The threats to the once-Edenic island, Adi soon learns, aren't exactly what his employers said they were - and, complicating things further, he discovers he's not alone on the island. Fearful for his own life, and for the fate of the island, Adi spends his sun-drenched days rooting out the true threat to Santa Flora, and, by extension, to the world it occupies - and the desperate steps he must take to eradicate it. Eradication is an utterly unforgettable reading experience and the work of a truly singular imagination.
