Eaton N: The Harrow

The Harrow

The funny, gripping thriller shortlisted for The Orwell Prize 2025

“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;

Cece Downing Starts Over

NATIONAL BESTSELLER | WINNER OF THE KIRKUS PRIZE | NBCC JOHN LEONARD PRIZE FINALIST One of The New York Times Book Review's 100 Notable Books of 2025 One of The Washington Post's 10 Best Books of 2025 For readers of Jonathan Franzen and Nathan Hill comes a haymaker of an American novel about a missing teenage boy, cases of fluid and mistaken identity, and the transformative power of boxing. Austin, Texas: It’s the summer of 1998, and there’s a new face on the scene at Terry Tucker’s Boxing Gym. Sixteen-year-old Nathaniel Rothstein has never felt comfortable in his own skin, but under the tutelage of a swaggering, Haitian-born ex-fighter named David Dalice, he begins to come into his own. Even the boy’s slightly stoned uncle, Bob Alexander, who is supposed to be watching him for the summer, notices the change. Nathaniel is happier, more confident—tanner, even. Then one night he vanishes, leaving little trace behind. Across the city, Charles Rex, now going simply by “X,” has been undergoing a teenage transformation of his own, trolling the phone sex hotline that his mother works, seeking an outlet for everything that feels wrong about his body, looking for intimacy and acceptance in a culture that denies him both. As a surprising and unlikely romance blooms, X feels, for a moment, like he might have found the safety he’s been searching for. But it's never that simple. More than a decade later, Nathaniel’s uncle Bob receives a shocking tip, propelling him to open his own investigation into his nephew’s disappearance. The resulting search involves gymgoers past and present, including a down-on-his-luck twin and his opportunistic brother; a rookie cop determined to prove herself; and Alexis Cepeda, a promising lightweight, who crossed the US-Mexico border when he was only fourteen, carrying with him a license bearing the wrong name and face. Bobbing and weaving across the ever-shifting canvas of a changing country, The Slip is an audacious, daring look at sex and race in America that builds to an unforgettable collision in the center of the ring.

The Slip

The Payback

In his final novel, the Nobel Prize winner Mario Vargas Llosa returns to his native Peru. Toño Azpilcueta, proletarian intellectual, writer of sundry articles, aspirant to the now-defunct professorship of Peruvian studies, is an expert in the vals, a genre of music descended from the European waltz but rooted in New World creole culture. When he hears a performance by the elusive guitarist Lalo Molfino, Toño is convinced not only that he is in the presence of the country's finest musician, but also that his own love for Peruvian music, as he has long suspected, has a profound, provable social function. If he could just write the biography of the man before him and tell the story of both the vals and its attendant inspiring ethos, huachafería (Peru's great contribution to world culture, as per Toño), he might capture his country's soul and inspire his fellow citizens to remember the ties that bind them. Through music, the populace might come together, lay down their arms, and embrace a harmonious and unified Peruvian culture. Both a send-up of parochial idealism and a love song to the culture of his homeland, Mario Vargas Llosa's I Give You My Silence is the moving final novel of the Peruvian Nobel Prize winner, whose enduring works captured a changing Latin America. The tragic hero Toño and his belief in a democratic, proletarian music at odds with the culture and politics of a modern Peru scarred by violence is the writer's last statement on the revelatory, maddening, foolhardy, yet irrepressible conviction that art has profound transformative power.

Liebe. Unsterblichkeit. Flucht. Weltende: Ein Roman aus der Zukunft über die Gegenwart. 

 Oswalth Kerzenrauch, genannt ¿der Gräber¿, stirbt nicht. Und so überlebt er alle, die er je geliebt hat, auch seine Tochter Luzie, die er bis ins hohe Alter begleitet. Die Wirren des dritten Weltkrieges hat er ebenso durchstanden wie die endgültige Zerstörung der Flora und Fauna. Als die letzten Erdenbewohner den&nbsp;unwirtlichen Planeten in Richtung Nektar II verlassen,&nbsp;bleibt er mit einer kleinen Gruppe Verbündeter, die ihre Ruhe vor einer Gesellschaft, die sie nie wollte, nun in wahnwitziger Ekstase feiern, in den Ruinen&nbsp;Berlins&nbsp;zurück.
 

 In einer Welt nach der Menschheit entsteht dort in den Trümmern eine widersprüchliche Idylle. Je einsamer er wird, desto mehr verliert er sich in seinen schönsten und in seinen furchtbarsten Erinnerungen. Was aber bedeutet das Weltende für einen, der verdammt ist, es zu überdauern?
 

 Hendrik Otrembas vierter Roman erzählt kontrastreich die Geschichte eines einfachen Mannes, der in unserer Epoche geboren und in der Unendlichkeit gestrandet ist. Er weiß von der Liebe zum Leben und zu den Menschen, aber auch vom Schrecken der Zivilisation - und stellt angesichts deren Endes die Frage, was von uns übrig bleibt, wenn niemand mehr da ist, sich an uns zu erinnern.
 

 Zwischen herzerschütternden Erinnerungen an vergangene Lieben und nervenaufreibenden Schilderungen des politischen, sozialen, ökologischen Untergangs, gelingt Hendrik Otremba Unerhörtes: Er findet eine Sprache für eine Zukunft, die wir nicht einmal denken können, ein Vokabular für das Post-Anthropozän.

Reading Journal: More Blood, Less Plot

Station Eleven meets Leave the World Behind in this family drama at the end of the world about a crumbling household’s attempts to find their way back to each other amidst a cataclysmic event. "Our father had imagined the end of the world so often that, for a while, he believed that he summoned it." The Minton family is in crisis. After losing his job, Marcus begins stockpiling cans, running evacuation drills and digging a doomsday bunker in the back garden. At the same time, his daughters are unravelling in their own ways – Chantale is being haunted by dreams of disaster, and Briar’s obsession with a missing classmate draws her deeper into the seductive world of a UFO cult. Meanwhile, no one is aware of the diagnosis their mother has been trying to keep hidden. When, on the morning of the eldest daughter’s wedding, an extinction-level event tears the world apart, the Mintons must fight their way through a devastated city—back to safety, survival, and each other.
