The Visit


"The lad is a bit like a stray dog. I keep an eye on him and throw him a few scraps. There are plenty of people in this town who'd just as soon drop him off in the wilderness and hope there's no scent to follow home. The problem is that Patrick could find his way out of any wilderness and they wouldn't like whatever starved thing came back." Sergeant Jim Field feels a guilty paternalism for Patrick Hatten, a young man struggling to find a job, a life and a purpose in a small-town Wexford community. Both are used to being on the fringes but while Jim is a romantic with bad health and regret, Patrick is full of anger and action, and his actions could have devastating effects.

An Army of Lovers Cannot Fail


A friendship is a filiation we choose. It holds love and laughter; it can extend our sense of the possible. Moved to honour a form of relation often subordinated to romantic and familial ties, and to explore a part of her own history, Hélene Giannecchini pieces together an alternative genealogy of queer ancestors. In searching and sensitive prose, she sifts the past to bring existences deemed ‘marginal’ into communion with each other, traces of which may remain only in memory and archival fragments. Roving from Casa Susanna, a space of freedom from persecution in McCarthyite North America, to the diary of a man living with HIV in France, and to the life and work of pioneering lesbian photographer Donna Gottschalk, each narrative counters oblivion through loving acts of witness. A slantwise gathering of queer life and activism in the twentieth century, interspersed with images encountered by chance, An Army of Lovers Cannot Fail establishes friendship as a vital political force and offers a moving testament to its liberatory power.

Die Trying


Do you believe in fate? When Jemma leaves husband Adam for another man, his world shatters. Desperate to regain control, Adam turns to the glass die he once used to make every decision. Meanwhile, Jemma's lost her sense of self. Every choice she makes is tempting her to risk everything to find her spark again. At first, it's just a game. Adam's die becomes the centrepiece of a wellness podcast he starts with an old friend. But when interest spreads online and others are drawn into its dangerous orbit, Adam's obsession takes a darker turn. As his painful past threatens to overturn the present, Adam loses his grip on reality and one final roll could decide everything – life, death, or the illusion of choice itself… DIE TRYING is an addictive, twisting pageturner that asks how far we'll go when we gamble with fate, and the devastating impact a single decision can unleash. Praise for DIE TRYING 'Thought-provoking, dark, compelling with a premise to DIE for. If you ask fate to save your ailing marriage, how far will you let it take you?' TAMMY COHEN 'A book that will stay with me for a long time. The premise is clever but the execution may be cleverer still – bringing the fascinating concept of the die, fate and how much we can really control as human beings into a 2026 space of wellness podcasts, decision overwhelm and toxic masculinity. A brilliant job, by a brilliant author’ CAROLINE CORCORAN 'A brilliant study of chancing fate, and the internal madness it brings. Pacy, and tender, and beautifully written' L. V. MATTHEWS

Serapion


Mgr. art. Vlado JAVORSKÝ (1952) prichádza po románoch Noah (2021), Čas čarodejníc (2022) a románe Chata v hmle (2024, Pars artem) s najnovším románom SERAPION (2026, Signis), ktorý nesie nezameniteľný rukopis autorovej tvorby. Vyštudovaný filmový a televízny scenárista a dramaturg vidí svoje príbehy v obrazoch, ktoré si čitateľ vo svojej fantázii dokáže pred očami pretaviť do akoby odvíjajúceho sa filmu. Román Serapion je „film“ širokého časového plátna. Osudy ľudí v komunite cirkusu od besnenia svetovej vojny až po neľútostnú súčasnosť. Kladie si otázku, prečo toľko pádov, prehratých bitiek a zúfalých pokusov o šťastie? Je to osud, čo ženie človeka do zúfalých činov, kde hľadá nápravu a porozumenie? Hoci je román prakticky bez dialógov, príbeh ich nepotrebuje, je jasný a zrozumiteľný. Autor je znalcom kritických momentov života, ovláda podstatu konfliktov a snáh o ich riešenia. Každý z hrdinov nesie svoj kríž bez zbytočného sentimentálneho balastu. Hrdinovia sú takými, akými ich splodila doba. Sú silní vo svojej viere, že marazmus ich bytia je iba dočasný. Hrdo nosia v sebe nádej v lepšie dni...

To Kill A Mockingbird


'Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.' A lawyer’s advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee’s classic novel – a black man charged with a serious crime. Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man’s struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much.

The Vipers


On the glittering island of Capri, anything can be a mirage. But one thing is true: there's nothing deadlier than a family with everything to lose . . . The world was shocked by playwright Sarah Lingate’s death thirty years ago at an opulent, white-washed villa on the island of Capri. Absolved of the crime, the Lingate family maintains that what happened that night was a tragic accident. And every July they return to Capri to prove it’s true. This time, Helen Lingate - sole heir to the family fortune - has a plan. Tightly controlled by her father, she enlists the help of the family assistant, Lorna Moreno, to free herself from her family’s stranglehold on her life. And yet, behind closed doors, the legendary Lingate family unity is at breaking point. Upon arrival at the villa in Capri, an anonymous gift awaits them: the necklace Sarah was wearing the night she died. In the aftermath, the paranoid, insular Lingates begin to unravel. As the investigation into her mother’s death is reopened, Helen begins to lose trust in everyone around her: her controlling father Richard, drug-addled aunt Naomi, aloof uncle Marcus, and even Lorna, whose past she realizes is frustratingly opaque. And as the family fractures, the long-hidden truth about that night and the secrets they’ve kept from one another boil to the surface - and they might not leave the island alive.

I feel like this is the book I've been working towards for my whole writing life. The story of an ambitious woman in a world where women are supposed to be modest. A woman whose mind refuses to accept a small life, and whose body is reviled while remaining, for her, a source of great joy. A woman, who, like so many oppressed people throughout history, finds a way to subvert and resist. To be who she is without permission or approval. In Rapture this legendary, much-argued over figure is a flesh-and-blood woman of ingenuity, purpose and passion. Her name is Agnes, and I'm excited for you to meet her.'
