Never Let Me Go

THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLER A NEW YORK TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE 21ST CENTURY 'Masterly.' Sunday Times 'A brilliantly executed book by a master craftsman.' MARGARET ATWOOD 'A page-turner and a heartbreaker, a tour de force of knotted tension and buried anguish.' TIME **Complete with a brand new introduction from the Nobel Prize-winning author.** A beautiful anniversary edition to mark twenty years of Kazuo Ishiguro's modern classic, in which he imagines the lives of a group of students growing up in a darkly skewered version of 1990s England. Narrated by Kathy H, as she tries to come to terms with her childhood at the seemingly idyllic Hailsham School, it is a story of love, friendship and memory, charged throughout with a sense of life's fragility. Readers adore Never Let Me Go: 'A masterpiece . . . a beautifully written, skilfully crafted story that reveals what lies in the core of the human heart.' 'Touches the depths of your intellect and your soul.' 'A genuinely moving illustration of an aspect of human nature that we usually like to ignore.' 'I guarantee it will move you and probably bring you close to tears.' 'A masterful read: gripping, thought-provoking, and immensely sad . . . I have found myself thinking about it for days.' 'Undoubtedly a modern classic that spans genres.' 'I read it in a day and I am certain it will stay with me for years.'

Twentieth Anniversary Edition

The Mischief Makers is a haunting, stylish fictional reimagining of the life of Daphne du Maurier - infamous author of Rebecca - and her mysterious association with the man who wrote Peter Pan.

'Fascinating' ELIZABETH BUCHAN 'Intoxicating' CAROL DRINKWATER 'Glorious' JANE JOHNSON She wrote her stories in his shadow. Now Daphne's past is catching up with her... In a beautiful house in the wilds of Cornwall, Daphne du Maurier is on the brink of a nervous breakdown. Tangled in a self-destructive love affair that threatens to unravel her marriage, she is also distracted by worry for the family friend whose shadow looms over her childhood: J. M. Barrie, author of Peter Pan. Daphne tries to escape into writing her new book, but the line between fiction and reality blurs dangerously when her own characters start manifesting before her eyes - in particular a woman called Rebecca who looks suspiciously like her husband's alluring ex-girlfriend. Daphne must confront the dark truth that lurks beneath the fantasy of Peter Pan and the secret life that has plagued her since she found fame. Unless she can solve these mysteries and reckon with who she truly is as an artist, her next great work may be lost to history . . . PRAISE FOR ELISABETH GIFFORD: 'Gorgeously written and devastating' Kate Riordan 'One of the best novels I've read' Gill Paul 'Desperately romantic' Katie Fforde 'Compelling' Sarah Maine 'Gorgeous, melancholy' The Times 'A glorious novel. You won't be able to put it down for a minute' Suellen Dainty 'An undeniably haunting love story' Sunday Times 'A moving story, beautifully told' Tim Pears

A Mercy

"This collection showcases the science fiction of Scottish-born and California-based writer Robert Duncan Milne (1844-99), whose works mark him as one of the forgotten pioneers of the genre. A critical edition that is grouped thematically, it draws together the most expansive collection of his writing ever published, placing his life, works, and themes into their historical, literary, scholarly, and scientific contexts. With his writing touching on nearly every subset of sci-fi, this book offers an overdue correction to the science fiction canon and is the essential guide to a crucially overlooked writer"--

This collection showcases the speculative writing of Scottish-born and California-based writer Robert Duncan Milne (1844-99) whose works mark him as one of the forgotten pioneers of early science fiction. Hailed as the first full-time science fiction writer in America, this critical edition draws together the most expansive collection of his writing ever published and places his life, works and themes into their historical, literary and scientific contexts. With his writing touching on nearly every subset of the genre, including climate catastrophe, utopia, cryogenics, molecular re-engineering of the body, personality transfer, drone warfare, remote surveillance, and satellite phones, this book offers an overdue correction to the science fiction canon. Grouped thematically and with volume and story introductions that connect Milne’s work to his peers and science fiction scholarship, this is the essential guide to a crucially overlooked writer. Astonishingly prescient and fulfilling the missing link in science fiction literary history that bridges the gap between the likes of Jules Verne and H. G. Wells, Milne makes clear the often-obscured contribution of both Scotland and California in the development of the science fiction genre.

Stories by the Lost Pioneer of Science Fiction

The Essential Robert Duncan Milne

The first in a brilliantly exciting new historical crime thriller series set at the time of Elizabeth I, from a No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author. Perfect for fans of Wolf Hall and the Shardlake series.

Wed Within a Year

How To Court A Rake

In the summer of 1938, Sonja is lifted onto a Kindertransport train that will take her from Nazi-occupied Austria to London. She leaves behind her parents, Fania and Arnold, and her baby brother Moses. She is the only member of her family to survive. In 1966 Fania is working as a massage therapist in Montreal, a country that provided her safe haven after she lost her entire family in the second world war. And yet there are strange echoes, impressions, of those she loves everwhere she turns. Has she lost her mind or is her family still alive? In 21st century Vienna, Arnold receives a message from an Englishwoman claiming to be his long-lost daughter, Sonja. Daring to believe that she survived, Arnold waits for her at the train station. Finally, in New York, 2002, Moses is haunted by the ghost of his best friend who was killed in the Prague Spring, and who exhorts Moses to return to Prague to make peace for the dead. Moving from world war two to 2016, between Vienna and Prague, London and Montreal, New York and Miami, Rooms for Vanising is the story of a family blown apart and across the globe by war. They each believe that they are the sole survivor, and maybe they are, because this is a novel of maybe-lived lives, parallel worlds and possibilities, and one populated by ghosts. Spellbinding and profound, Rooms for Vanishing explores the collisions between desire and reality, memory and facts; it is a singular work that masterfully reimagines the lost possibilities of history itself.

For fans of &amp;i&gt;Trust &amp;/i&gt;by Hernan Diaz, &amp;i&gt;All the Light We Cannot See &amp;/i&gt;by Anthony Doerr&amp;i&gt; &amp;/i&gt;and Tom Stoppards &amp;i&gt;Leopoldstadt&amp;/i&gt;, &amp;i&gt;Rooms for Vanishing&amp;/i&gt; is an epic novel of grief and hope and one family blown apart - across the globe, across time, across parallel possibilities - by war.

Rooms for Vanishing

Serbian Literature

Exploring sanity and insanity, truth and untruth,&nbsp;The Rise and Fall of Parkinson's Disease&nbsp;is Svetislav Basara's unblinking and unforgettable deconstruction of the Soviet psyche.Told as an eclectic collection of appropriated testimonies, treatises, missives, and police files, The Rise and Fall of Parkinson's Disease follows the progression of the contagion's patient zero, a Soviet citizen (sometimes) named Demyan Lavrentyevich Parkinson, as he ascends from hellish health to the sacred illness. Hailed as one of Serbia's most influential living writers, Svetislav Basara's scathing, irreverent critiques of authoritarianism have twice won him Serbia's prestigious NIN Award.&nbsp;In The Rise and Fall of Parkinson's Disease, Basara lives up to this reputation with a book as formally ambitious as it is intellectually sophisticated. His blend of grotesque absurdism and wry humor evokes the paranoid, vexing worlds of Franz Kafka's novels and the meta-textual assemblages of Paul Auster. Told from a colorful range of perspectives, the novel is a multifaceted, crystalline account of truth, lies, and history, a sprawling case study of humans in an inhuman society.
