Jacobsen R: The Unworthy

The Unworthy

Lola in the Mirror

The prose short story arrived in Bengal in the wake of British colonizers, and Bengali writers quickly made the form their own. By the twentieth century a profusion of literary magazines and journals meant they were being avidly read by millions. Writers responded to this hunger for words with a ferocious energy which reflected the turmoil of their times: these stories covered land wars, famine, the caste system, religious conflict, patriarchy, Partition and the liberation war that saw the emergence of the independent country of Bangladesh. Across these shifting geographical borders, writers also looked inward, evolving new literary styles and stretching the possibilities of social realism, political fiction and intimate domestic tales. A first in English, this anthology gathers together a century's worth of extraordinary stories. From a woman who eats fish in secret to the woes of an ageing local footballer, from the anxieties of a middle-class union rep to a lawyer who stumbles upon a philosopher's stone, this is a collection that celebrates making art of life, in all its difficulty and joy.

The Penguin Book of Bengali Short Stories

Judith Lennox will enthral her readers with this mesmerising story of one woman's tumultuous journey through the twentieth century, navigating the joys and challenges of marriage and motherhood in an ever-changing world.

A mesmerising novel exploring the joys and challenges of family life throughout the twentieth century, A DIFFERENT WORLD is the latest bestselling novel from Judith Lennox. Not to be missed by readers of Lucinda Riley and Rachel Hore. In the summer of 1939, nineteen-year-old Olivia Goodland arrives in London. Working for a society dressmaker, she meets wealthy, beautiful Grace Ruthwell. Beguiled by the glamour of Grace's world, it's only slowly and too late that she becomes aware of the darkness that lies beneath the glittering exterior. When the Second World War erupts, Olivia joins the Land Army. At a party in Wiltshire, she meets the handsome poet George Flynn, whose charms prove impossible to resist. Over the ensuing years, Olivia's life is absorbed by the upbringing of her three sons, and by her relationship with a man whose passions go beyond poetry. But as the twentieth century continues to unfold, Olivia makes a shocking discovery, and starts to question where her true happiness lies . . . Praise for Judith Lennox: 'I have fallen completely in love with Judith Lennox's writing - she's a fantastic storyteller!' Jill Mansell 'A fast-moving, complex story' The Times 'Judith Lennox's writing is so keenly honest it could sever heartstrings' Daily Mail

A breathtaking novel exploring the highs and lows of family life during the Second World War and beyond

In Nazi-occupied Italy, keeping secrets could be deadly.

Genoa, 1944:
 
Widowed and alone, Anna Pastorino has been surviving on her wits since the Germans invaded. The daughter of a prominent Jewish antifascist, Anna lives a hidden life in her small flat near the harbour ... until an RAF bomb destroys her only shelter. When a Jesuit priest approaches her offering help, she has no choice but to accept. She follows her new friend, Father Vittorio, to a safe house above a printers' shop in a quiet street near via Assarotti.
 
But the Tipografia Guichard is more than just a refuge. It's a forgery workshop: a key part of the secret rescue operation headed by Massimo Teglio, the "Scarlet Pimpernel" of Genoa's persecuted Jewish population. Drawn into a world of clandestine resistance, Anna discovers a new sense of purpose, a circle of friends, and a passion that brings her alive.
 
Soon, the little flat above the shop holds more secrets than anyone could imagine. As Anna grows closer to both Teglio and Vittorio, she must confront a past trauma of her own: a secret that might endanger her and everyone she loves.

Mr Sidhu’s Post Office

'Sensuously detailed . . . edgy . . . riveting' Financial TimesTwo strangers meet on a bus along a dusty road in rural France. Tati is a tough, work-worn widow, who runs the farm her late husband left behind, while trying to keep out of the way of her predatory in-laws. Jean is an odd, quiet man, recently out of prison, with nowhere to go. These lost souls recognize something in each other, and Jean becomes Tati's lodger and farm worker. In the still and heat of the summer, they labour together and, inevitably, begin to sleep together. Soon, however, their strange affair will become something altogether darker. First published in 1942 at the same time as Albert Camus' The Outsider, this is Simenon's existentialist masterpiece, exploring the dangerous mystery of who we are and what we desire. 'Published, like The Outsider, in 1942, and at least equal to Camus's work in portraying a doomed and alienated life' David Hare

The Widow Couderc

A saga of young hands at a silk-making facility, a gripping tale of hope, friendship and loss.

In southern India, in 1992, silkworms feed on Mulberry leaves and spin cocoons of silk. Six days a week, twelve hours a day, fourteen-year-old Manju and his friend Shiva toil in the brutal confines of the Factory, which runs under the merciless leadership of Pandu. Lives improve for the two boys when they cross paths with Sunil, a city-bred lad whose family owns the silk business. Sunil, who is battling his own demons, finds unexpected comfort in the company of his new-found friends. However, menacing currents within the Factory continue to simmer under the surface, and things rapidly come to a head. Little Hands of Silk is a novel of loss—loss of empathy, of innocence, of life itself, but it’s also a tale of hope and friendship that blooms as an antidote to the surrounding evil.
