The Accidental Holiday

Essex Wives

Susan Green mag keine Überraschungen. Oder Emotionen. Oder Menschen. Was Susan Green hingegen mag, ist ihr Job als Versicherungsmathematikerin. Ihre Kakteensammlung. Und, die Kontrolle über ihr Leben zu haben. Susan Green kommt wunderbar alleine klar. Doch als gleich mehrere Schicksalsschläge Susans Routine durcheinanderwirbeln, muss sie mit Mitte vierzig lernen, dass nichts im Leben planbar ist. Und dass es nie zu spät ist, sein Herz zu öffnen.
»Originell, bezaubernd und absolut glaubwürdig« Graeme Simsion

<ul><li>The Covenant of Water is the long-awaited new novel from Abraham Verghese, the author of the widely acclaimed and beloved book Cutting for Stone, published in 2009.

We are coordinating a cover reveal and interview with Hamilton Cain of Oprah Daily for mid-October.</li><li>We are undertaking major early industry advertising including Shelf Awareness as well as pre-publication consumer promotions on Goodreads, Literary Hub, and social media, with a concerted pre-order push followed by a blockbuster, multi-million impression digital advertising campaign at on-sale with ads on top news and entertainment sites like NPR, New York Times, as well as significant outreach to local book clubs, South Asian and Indian American communities, and medical interest groups.&nbsp;</li><li>We are printing thousands of ARCs for booksellers, media, librarians, and others, and will conduct regional independent bookstore outreach with targeted bookseller mailings.</li><li>Verghese was the keynote speaker at CALIBA, and he will also attend Winter Institute. We are planning several high-profile events at publication, including the 92Y, Seattle Arts and Letters, Inprint Houston, and others.</li><li>We have already sent early ARCs for blurbs to a fraction of Verghese’s extensive network, including John Irving, Sandra Cisneros, Ayad Akhtar, Anthony Doerr, Kiran Desai, Honorée Fanonne Jeffers, Atul Gawande, and Siddhartha Mukherjee.</li><li>Verghese is pitching and writing several pieces and essays for outlets between now and publication, including one about his visit to a leper colony in Molokai for Travel &amp; Leisure, and one in Departures’s Mexico issue.</li><li>The Covenant of Water will appeal to fans of sweeping global family sagas, such as A Suitable Boy and Pachinko. It is a humane and moving novel that has brought many in-house readers to tears.</li><li>We plan to cross-promote this new novel with the publishers of Verghese’s previous books, including Vintage for Cutting for Stone and My Own Country.</li></ul>

OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK • INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER&nbsp;• SUBJECT OF A SIX-PART SUPER SOUL PODCAST SERIES HOSTED BY OPRAH WINFREY&nbsp;From the New York Times-bestselling author of Cutting for Stone comes a stunning and magisterial epic of love, faith, and medicine, set in Kerala, South India, following three generations of a family seeking the answers to a strange secret“One of the best books I’ve read in my entire life. It’s epic. It’s transportive . . . It was unputdownable!”—Oprah Winfrey, OprahDaily.comThe Covenant of Water&nbsp;is the long-awaited new novel by Abraham Verghese, the author of the major word-of-mouth bestseller Cutting for Stone, which has sold over 1.5 million copies in the United States alone and remained on the New York Times&nbsp;bestseller list for over two years. 
Spanning the years 1900 to 1977,&nbsp;The Covenant of Water&nbsp;is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time. From this unforgettable new beginning, the young girl—and future matriarch, known as Big Ammachi—will witness unthinkable changes over the span of her extraordinary life, full of joy and triumph as well as hardship and loss, her faith and love the only constants.
A shimmering evocation of a bygone India and of the passage of time itself, The Covenant of Water&nbsp;is a hymn to progress in medicine and to human understanding, and a humbling testament to the difficulties undergone by past generations for the sake of those alive today. It is one of the most masterful literary novels published in recent years.

The Covenant of Water (Oprah's Book Club)

Originally published as a series of sketches in Harper's Bazaar magazine, Loos' debut novel was an instant success that popularised the tropes of the 'dumb blonde' and the 'gold-digger'; we follow Lorelei, a young blonde flapper, through a series of diary entries as she and her friend Dorothy take an extravagant trip across Europe. Lorelei involves herself with various men, seeing them only as entertainment and the means to increasing her jewellery collection - whereas Dorothy is more romantically inclined (much to Lorelei's chagrin). The way that their exploits are told in Lorelei's distinctive narrative voice and the imaginative writing techniques used by Loos form the heart of the novel, coming together to create a timeless comedic tone that will connect with contemporary and modern readers alike.

Circus of Mirrors

Salomé was bullied for years and no one did a single thing to help her. One day she finally snapped. Now at just sixteen years old, she's being held in a secure unit for young offendersSalomé's counsellor, the man whose good opinion is key to her release, is best known for his racist gaffes on reality TV. Her father has recently been diagnosed with liver cancer and her elder sister Miriam's main preoccupation is to get out of their small, close-minded village as soon as possible. Both at home and in the unit, things are unbearably tense. Salomé finds it hard to keep her temper and harder still to think about the crime she is charged with committing. But as time passes, she finds new strength to delve into the reasons for her rage and arrive at her own understanding of punishment, penitence and the paradoxical demands made on her existence as a Black woman. Raw and unsentimental, Confrontations is a powerful depiction of racism and resilience from one of the Netherlands' most exciting new literary voices.

Confrontations

'[A] moving story about secrecy, shame and the healing power of vulnerability' Daily Mail Norman Cartwright, an eighty-six-year-old man living in the small seaside town of Clacton, Essex, has kept his cross-dressing a secret his entire life. A trucker by trade, his lipstick and wigs were donned only in the lonely confines of his lorry, as he sat in lay-bys and drove along empty roads on long trips away from his wife and children. After years of judgement, abuse and fear, Norman no longer knows how to embrace this side of himself, or if anyone would accept him if he did . . . When his teenage granddaughter, Florence, turns up unannounced, it's obvious that she, too, has secrets she's not yet willing to share. As they grow closer, however, the truth bubbles free and life starts to change in profound and unexpected ways, both for them and everyone around them. In Search of Ethel Cartwright is a moving story of family, love and courage that reminds us of the importance of being true to ourselves.

A touching and uplifting story of one eighty-six-year-old man on a life-changing journey.
