Claudine's House

“The stories in this bewitching collection begin in the known world before tilting towards mystery and rebellion—a book full of pleasure and surprise.” —Aysegül Savas, author of&nbsp;The Anthropologists&nbsp;and&nbsp;Long Distance: Stories Startling, spellbinding stories, in which appearances and intentions are rarely what they seem from an exciting new voice in fiction.&nbsp; A psychic harnesses her talent for animal communication to extract a perfect revenge. A stone appears in a woman’s pocket like a charm, only to end up lodged in her partner’s throat. A condescending artist, who considers his girlfriend too conventional, throws a dinner party where he’s served a painful and consequential truth.&nbsp; Jess Gibson brings us twelve probing, sideways tales that wrestle with the limits of perception and possibility. The men and women in her stories confront contradictory forces: the beautiful can turn grotesque, the exalted can fall into disgrace, the genius can be proved an impostor.&nbsp; Sharp, funny, surprising, and utterly original, The Good Eye announces a brilliant new voice in contemporary fiction. &nbsp; &nbsp;

The Good Eye

Zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts ist St. Georg ein Ort, an dem Wunder Alltag sind: Man spricht mit Heiligen, geht über Wasser, pfeift Steine entzwei. Doch die neue Zeit rückt näher. Als der totgeglaubte Odysseus nach fünfzehn Jahren zurückkehrt, geraten Ordnung, Glaube und Erinnerung ins Wanken - die stumme Julia scheint sowohl an ihm als auch an seinem Bruder interessiert.

"Pfingsten. Erinnerungen an ein Ende der Welt" ist ein Roman, der mit Motiven des magischen Realismus spielt. Hlaüo erzählt vielstimmig von einer Welt an der Schwelle zur Moderne, von Sprache, Verwandlung und dem Moment, in dem aus einem Ende ein Anfang wird. In St. Georg treffen das Mystische und das Mechanische aufeinander, die alten Wunder funktionieren noch - doch niemand weiß, wie lange. Mit Lust am Detail und feinem, bisweilen trockenem Humor verfolgt Miroslav Hlaüo, was geschieht, als Franz Rechnitz, ein junger K.u.K.-Notar, in den Ort kommt und St. Georg "ordnungsgemäß" ins neue Jahrhundert führen will.
Pfingsten wurde 2025 mit dem wichtigsten tschechischen Literaturpreis Magnesia Litera gleich zweimal ausgezeichnet - als "Buch des Jahres" und als "Debüt des Jahres" - und erscheint im Vorfeld des Ehrengastauftritts Tschechiens auf der Frankfurter Buchmesse 2026.

Erinnerungen an ein Ende der Welt

Pfingsten

To have and to hold, to lie and to kill... Meet Daisy Dixon. She loves sewing, antiques, and watching murder mysteries. Oh, and plotting to kill her husband. Meet James Dixon. He's mega-rich, mega-successful, and completely missing a conscience. On the way back from a party, the Dixons hit a man with their car. There's only one thing for it, and that's to bury him in the grounds of their manor house, Langley Hall. All is going well, until the day that the rain washes up more than it's supposed to... and suddenly, the Dixons are suspects. As Daisy and James battle it out to be the not-guilty party, Daisy starts working on a plot of her own... after all, it wouldn't be the first time, would it? All's fair in love and war, especially in this marriage.

A wickedly funny and darkly compelling thriller from a fresh new voice in crime

Little Clothbound Classics

Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas, and essays from the world’s greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith. In these elegant and devastating tales of deception, desire, and social intrigue, Edith Wharton exposes the brittle veneer of civility that masks human ambition and longing. From the sunlit terraces of Rome to the drawing rooms of New York, Wharton’s characters navigate a world bound by class and convention yet charged with emotional undercurrents they barely understand. In “Roman Fever,” two middle-aged women confront the unspoken rivalries that have shadowed their friendship for decades; in “Mrs. Manstey’s View,” a lonely widow’s cherished glimpse of life beyond her window becomes the stage for a quiet tragedy; and in “After Holbein,” the elaborate pretenses of two aging New Yorkers reveal the haunting persistence of vanity and illusion. These Wharton works are the latest to join the Little Clothbound Classic series designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith.

Love By The Book

lllusion, Macht, Geheimnis: ¿Magus¿ lässt Realitäten verschwimmen, ein literarisches Vexierspiel aus Rätseln und philosophischen Fragen. 

 Der junge Engländer, Nicholas Urfe, ist des Lebens überdrüssig und verlässt sein langweiliges Leben in England. In der Hoffnung, dass seine Dämonen sich in der Sonne besser unter Kontrolle halten lassen, nimmt er einen Lehrauftrag auf einer abgelegenen griechischen Insel an. Als die Dunkelheit ihn auch dorthin verfolgt, schließt er eine Freundschaft mit einem zurückgezogenen Millionär. Schon bald findet er sich als Schachfigur im tödlichen Spiel dieses Tricksers aus Gewalt, Verführung und Verrat wieder. Je tiefer Nicholas in die psychologischen Fallen des Magus hineingezogen wird, desto schwerer fällt es, Vergangenheit von Gegenwart und Fantasie von Realität zu unterscheiden.
Ein Werk reich an Symbolen, Rätseln und labyrinthischen Wendungen, gilt der Magus als der magischste Roman im Fowles-Kanon.

Roman | 'Eine köstlich verführerische Feier des Geschichtenerzählens.' Sunday Times

Who doesn't want a second chance at life?Read the original and moving literary gem for fans of Banana Yoshimoto and Kawaguchi's BEFORE THE COFFEE GETS COLD, with stunning illustrated endpapers.What if you could come back after death to watch over your loved one, installing yourself in a treasured mug, for example, or perhaps your mother's hearing aid, a diary, or even a climbing frame, to feel the clambering limbs of a beloved sister?Eleven recently deceased protagonists find themselves floating in the afterlife where a nameless ghost offers them a joyous reunion with their loved ones.But not as you would expect.In a world where souls linger restlessly around after death, unwilling to depart, The Soul Catchers is a comforting, witty, and surprisingly sensual take on the Japanese folk belief that objects can be inhabited by human presences. Utterly charming, Higashi's classic is an original exploration of our eternal reluctance to let go.
