Plampin Matthew: These Wicked Devices

These Wicked Devices

A SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE YEAR

'A remarkable literary debut . . . Part memoir, part travelogue, Motherlands is ultimately an investigation of how we come to understand the past at all' Guardian

Our creation stories begin with the notion of expulsion from our 'original' home. We spend our lives struggling to return to the place we fit in, the body we belong in, the people that understand us, the life we were meant for. But the places we remember are ever-changing, and ever since we left, they continue to alter themselves, betraying the deal made when leaving. 

Australian writer Amaryllis Gacioppo has been raised on stories of original homes, on the Palermo of her mother, the Benghazi of her grandmother and the Turin of her great-grandmother. But what does belonging mean when you're not sure of where home is? Is the modern nation state defined by those who flourish there or by those who aren't welcome? Is visiting the land of one's ancestors a return, a chance to feel complete, or a fantasy?
 
Weaving memoir and cultural history through modern political history, examining notions of citizenship, statelessness, memory and identity and the very notion of home, Motherlands heralds the arrival of a major talent that opens one's eyes to new ways of seeing.

In Search of Our Inherited Cities

Motherlands

&nbsp;Three best friends. One five-star hotel. Will it be the holiday of a lifetime?

<div>Imogen is going on an expenses-paid holiday with her best friends. What could possibly go wrong? Imogen isn’t used to five-star hotels.&nbsp;&nbsp;She’s used to juggling the pressures of her job with raising a four-year-old single-handedly and trying to keep smiling throughout. &nbsp; So, when her friend wins a VIP trip to Barcelona’s most fashionable new hotel, it’s her chance to finally relax.&nbsp; &nbsp; But Imogen knows better than most that life doesn’t always go according to plan and things start to go awry before they’ve even set foot on the plane. &nbsp; The big question is: what is really motivating the mysterious, handsome man who’s always in the right place at the wrong time? 'Funny, sexy and moving - a hilarious holiday romp with a heart. I loved it' SOPHIE KINSELLA</div>

The Time of Our Lives

Never Too Late

Hillary Jordan Untitled

I am as brown as brown can be, And my eyes as black as sloe; I am as brisk as brisk can be, And wild as forest doe. (The Child Ballads, 295) So begins a beautiful tale of love, loss and revenge. Following the seasons, A Pocketful of Crows balances youth and age, wisdom and passion and draws on nature and folklore to weave a stunning modern mythology around a nameless wild girl. Only love could draw her into the world of named, tamed things. And it seems only revenge will be powerful enough to let her escape. Beautifully illustrated by Bonnie Helen Hawkins, this is a stunning and original modern fairytale.

A perfect autumn and Christmas read, this combines the harshness of nature with the spookiness of a ghost story and the comfort of a great folk tale, in one beautifully told novella which is stunningly illustrated by Bonnie Hawkins.

A Pocketful of Crows

A dark psychological suspense-come-ghost-story; about one family, buried under the weight of their own secrets. And a visitor, determined to destroy them.
