Brook-Mitchell A: Motherfaker

Motherfaker

` Exploring the pain and confusion of displaced persons at the end of the Second World war, which hardly any novels have done yet. I read with great pleasure' Tim Pears I love that her novels take me to unexplored places and times' Linda Grant `Such a beautiful and powerful book, emotional yet unsentimental. Rachel Seiffert's focus on a small, rural town in North Germany, from Burgermeister to abandoned baby unforgettably reminds us of the cost of war' Lucy Jago `Brilliant piece of story-telling -- stubbornly hopeful' Andrew Miller Northern Germany, 1945. Dead of night and dead of winter, a boy hears soldiers and sees strangers - forced labourers - fleeing across the heathland by his small town: shawls and skirts in the snowfall. The end days are close, war brings risk and chance, and Benno is witness to something he barely understands. Peace brings more soldiers - but English this time - and Red Cross staff officers. Ruth, on her first posting from London, is given charge of a refugee camp on the heathland, crowded with former forced labourers. As ever more keep arriving, she hears whispers, rumours of dark secrets about that snowy night. The townspeople close ranks, shutting their mouths and minds to the winter's events, but the town children are curious about the refugees on their doorstep, and Benno can't carry his secret alone.

Mrs Gulliver

Tell Tale

A high-fantasy quest novel, this is the first in a thrilling new series. Wydrin of Crosshaven and her companion Sir Sebastian are offered a job exploring the Citadel's darkest depths.

The first in the exhilarating British Fantasy Award-nominated Copper Cat Trilogy. Epic fantasy for fans of Robin Hobb and Jay Kristoff's&nbsp;Nevernight&nbsp;series. 'A fast-paced and original new voice in heroic fantasy' Adrian Tchaikovsky , author of&nbsp;Children of Time&nbsp; There are some tall stories about the caverns beneath the Citadel - about magic and mages and monsters and gods. Wydrin of Crosshaven has heard them all, but she's spent long enough trawling caverns and taverns with her companion Sir Sebastian to learn that there's no money to be made in chasing rumours. But then a crippled nobleman with a dead man's name offers them a job: exploring the Citadel's darkest depths. It sounds like just another quest with gold and adventure ... if they're lucky, they might even have a tale of their own to tell once it's over. These reckless adventurers will soon learn that sometimes there is truth in rumour. Sometimes a story can save your life.

The Copper Promise (complete novel)

A gripping, elegant debut novel about a young Black man caught between worlds of race and class, glamour and tragedy, a friend’s mysterious death and his own arrest, from an electrifying new voice.&nbsp;

Great Black Hope

A working-class Romeo &amp; Juliet set in the beauty and squalor of the Yorkshire edgelands

Neef has always been a storyteller and her story now, working in a café in London, is that her name is Jennifer. Jennifer never knew a boy called Danny, never loved him, never had him wrenched away from her.
 
 But when Neef was a teenager, and her troubled mother moved them into a flat above a pub in a working-class Yorkshire town, Danny was her whole world. Neef and Danny. Danny and Neef. Despite absent parents and small-town bigotry directed at Danny for the colour of his skin, they found solace in each other, convinced that Neef's stories and Danny's near-magic touch with plants would be their key to a different life. But as they got older, their dreams became tarnished by new distractions and new ways to forget themselves, eventually threatening to destroy them both.
 
 Fifteen years later, Neef is Jennifer and determined to stay anonymous, until someone from her past appears to remind her of who she used to be. Confronted by the memories she fled from, Neef is forced to face the decisions she's made and the person she's become. At once heart-breaking and hopeful, Wild Ground shows us an all-consuming first love as it grapples with addiction, identity and class barriers. In this tender and moving debut, Emily Usher presents an aching love story impossible to forget.

'As addictive as Normal People' - Jenna Clake

Wild Ground

'Exploring the pain and confusion of displaced persons at the end of the Second World war, which hardly any novels have done yet. I read with great pleasure' Tim Pears 'Such a beautiful and powerful book, emotional yet unsentimental. Rachel Seiffert's focus on a small, rural town in North Germany, from Burgermeister to abandoned baby unforgettably reminds us of the cost of war' Lucy Jago 'She has brought to life a complex interaction between survivors on both sides with humanity and compassion. I love that her novels take me to unexplored places and times' Linda Grant 'The language has a directness that gives it something of the feel of myth or fable. A complex, intelligent, deeply compassionate novel. Brilliant piece of story-telling - stubbornly hopeful' Andrew Miller 'Prose that is so lucid, so understated . . . this entire novel reverberates in ways that only haunt the reader more and more deeply, long after its last page' Paul Harding

1945. Dead of night and dead of winter; war brings a stranger to the door; a family is tricked into a act of compassion and danger.

Foyle’s War meets Agatha Christie’s Partners in Crime, with a smidgeon of Robert Thorogood.

Dark clouds are looming on the horizon of the&nbsp;vampire world as Dillon returns to VAMPS in this&nbsp;sizzling sequel to Fresh Blood.

Vamps: Dark Horizon

Kidnapped girls trapped in a remote theater surrounded by mountains and jungle are forced into illegal performances, displayed in cabinets with curiosities, their delicate limbs bound by straps, and accompanied by dancing puppets fashioned of dead children's bones.

Russell Persson’s These Threads Who Lead to Bramble
defies the singularity of any one genre as it braids together memory and myth
to challenge the limits of our collective imagination.

&nbsp;

This is a book that contains multitudes—a celebration of the
forgotten marginalia of Westernized thought. Persson’s collection delves into eccentric twentieth-century American photographers, the
lives of his ancestors both distant and recent, and of the artist Egon Schiele
in prison, teetering on the edge of sanity. He interweaves the careers
of three obscure composers—Alban Berg, Erik Satie, and Anton Webern—and imagines the composer’s life based
on listening to their music, rather than the other way around. And he charts the
path of his own life from a long-ago teenage road trip, sleeping in the backs
of friends’ cars and trying to find himself inside a vast world.

&nbsp;

As the work builds, the lines between personal memory and
collective history become ever more abstract, blending inner and outer spheres to
confront the unknowable expanse of universal existence. A must-read for fans of
Michael Ondaatje’s The Collected Works of Billy the Kid, Roland
Barthes’s Camera Lucida, and W.G. Sebald’s Austerlitz.

&nbsp;

This work includes black-and-white reproductions of Egon Schiele’s drawings, with permission from The ALBERTINA Museum in Vienna.
