Ho-Yeon K: The Second Chance Convenience
Store

The Second Chance Convenience Store

Untitled Novel

UNTITLED HEPBURN BK #3

A life-affirming guide to forging better social connections - and the surprising wellbeing benefits they bring

Why Social Health is the Missing Key to Living Longer, Healthier, and Happier

The Art and Science of Connection

War, Culture and Society

Through an in-depth analysis of wartime essays and literary works, Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War considers the similarities and differences in the way that writers from both North and South Korea perceived and experienced the conflict. 

In this book, Jerôme de Wit examines the social impact of major themes in the output of these writers, such as the notion of collaboration, the portrayal of the enemy and heroes, and the role of women during war, to further our understanding of the wartime identities that were constructed by the two Koreas. The result is a nuanced and enlightening study which provides a base for a full exploration of the role culture in the formation of North and South Korean states.

Until now, most studies have tended to focus on the Korean War's role in big power relations or on Korea's role in Cold War history. Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War demonstrates that the struggle was simultaneously an international 'total' war as well as a civil one. It is an important study for anyone interested in the literature and culture of the Korean War.

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.

Confrontations

With A Year of Last Things, acclaimed novelist Michael Ondaatje returns to poetry, looking back on a life of displacement and discovery 'My life always stops for a new book by him' JHUMPA LAHIRI 'A generous, moving book' GUARDIAN Born in Sri Lanka during the Second World War, Ondaatje was sent as a child to school in London, and later moved to Canada. While he has lived there since, these poems reflect the life of a writer, traveller and watcher of the world – describing himself as a 'mongrel', someone born out of diverse cultures. Here, rediscovering the influence of every border crossed, he moves back and forth in time, from a childhood in Sri Lanka to Molière’s chair during his last stage performance, from icons in Bulgarian churches to the Californian coast and loved Canadian rivers, merging memory with the present, looking back on a life of displacement and discovery, love and loss. As he writes in the opening poem: Reading the lines he loves he slips them into a pocket, wishes to die with his clothes full of torn-free stanzas and the telephone numbers of his children in far cities Poetry – where language is made to work hardest and burns with a gem-like flame - is what Ondaatje has returned to in this intimate history.

A Year of Last Things

Meet Mariddja: eccentric, 85-years-old, with not too long to live. When she learns of her cancer diagnosis, there is only one thing she can think of - how to keep the diagnosis from her husband Biera, and how to find someone who can take care of him once she's gone. Meet Kaj: a recent transplant to the village, recently-engaged to Mimmi, and recently mourning the death of his mother Laura. One day, when Kaj unexpectedly finds a box of Sami handicrafts belonging to his mother, he unlocks something he never quite anticipated, something that will change his life for years to come... A novel of humour and devastation, lyricism and tenderness, Those Who Sow in Snow introduces a cast of loveable, quirky characters grappling with the consequences of loving and losing someone, and the consequences of forgetting and remembering history.

Those Who Sow in the Snow

White Spaces

The follow-up to Rach's bestselling novel - A Different Kind of Happy, featuring the same, much-beloved cast of characters. A Different Kind of Happy centred on Jo (loosely based on Rach) and her moving on from her messy early adulthood with a move to a new life, with her partner and family, by the sea. A Letter to Keep You Safe is set a couple of years on from the end of ADKOH, returning to the same cast of characters but with a shift in focus to Jo's friend Lou in the aftermath of her divorce. We saw tiny glimpses of Lou's story in ADKOH but this will tell the whole story, focussing on her escape from an abusive marriage. Rach's books offer all the comfort of a cosy setting and a returning cast of characters dealing with real lives full of love and family. But they are also very 'real' stories of family, divorce, ex husbands, custody battles and the every day ups and downs of being a normal family, not a picture perfect presentation of one.

A new novel from Robinson Fiction, coming in April 2025

A Letter to Keep You Safe

In a future shaped by new world wars and advanced facial recognition technology, two agents from rival government entities find themselves working together on a mission to track down the world’s most wanted criminals. Roman Grant is an FBI agent and a war veteran with a stalwart desire to defend his country. Julia is CIA and also a veteran whose mission is to protect her country so why does she have so much hostility towards Roman? Could it be their romantic past? His arrogant but obnoxiously attractive attitude? Or is there something more sinister going on? With time running out and old grudges simmering just below the surface, Roman and Julia must figure out if their loyalties to their agencies and country also leave room for loyalty to each other.
