Sweetbitter Song
THE GREATEST LOVE STORY NEVER TOLD.
One fateful night in Sparta, a young slave girl encounters a mysterious, grey-eyed princess.
Melantho and Penelope, though from different worlds, are instantly connected. But betrayal soon tears them apart.
Years later, on Ithaca's rocky shores, Melantho is sent to serve Princess Penelope and her new husband, Prince Odysseus. Hardened by slavery, Melantho vows to stay distant from Penelope.
Yet, the undeniable pull between them proves stronger than ever.
As war ignites Greece, Odysseus and Ithaca's men are called away and, in their absence, Melantho finds a new world opening up before her one where women rule, where family can be found, and where love is finally given the space to bloom.
But all wars eventually end and as Troy falls, Penelope and Melantho must face the King s return and decide how far they will go to protect what matters most to them.
Flesh
Fifteen-year-old István lives with his mother in a quiet apartment complex in Hungary. New to the town and shy, he becomes isolated, with his neighbour – a married woman – as his only companion. When a clandestine relationship begins between them, his life spirals out of control.
As the years pass, István moves from the army to the circles of London’s elite. His competing impulses for love, intimacy, status and wealth win him unimaginable riches, until they threaten to undo him completely.
The Lake
Following a harsh winter, the dam gates at Farris Lake have been badly damaged, and as summer approaches the lake must be drained for repairs.
Under the intense summer sun, the idyllic lake transforms into a barren wasteland – until the secrets that have long been buried beneath the surface are uncovered…
On both sides of the lakebed, new evidence relating to unsolved cold cases is discovered – the remains of a young man who went missing eight years ago, and the belongings of a girl who disappeared four years later.
Detective William Wisting is certain these crimes are linked. The lake has long hidden its secrets – but can Wisting now bring the truth to light?
Death and Boules
Saint-Sauver, home to Richard Ainsworth and Valérie d’Orçay’s detective agency, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its town twinning with Anglethorp Spa in Lincolnshire. Events are planned, a huge brocante, street parties and the centrepiece, an exhibition boules tournament between the two towns and a team of international boules all-stars. Everything is going well, the sun shines, the wine flows and the entente is very cordiale. Until the mayor turns up dead in an antique dresser having apparently been killed twice. Inevitably Richard and Valérie have very different views on the subject and engage in their own battle: who will solve the crime first?
The Cat Who Saved the Library
The instant Sunday Times bestseller.
The must-have sequel to Sosuke Natsukawa's bestselling The Cat Who Saved Books - an uplifting tale from Japan about a talking cat and the power of books to make a difference in the world.
Thirteen-year-old Nanami Kosaki loves reading. The local library has become a home from home and books are her friends. When Nanami notices that some of her favourite books are disappearing from the library shelves, she becomes suspicious of a man in a grey suit whose furtive behaviour doesn't feel right.
Should she follow him to see what he's up to? It wouldn't be dangerous . . . would it?
When a smart-talking tabby cat called Tiger appears and issues a grave warning about how dangerous that would be, they decide to team up and investigate. Where have all the books gone? And can the unlikely duo overcome the challenges ahead?
Warm, wonderful and wise, The Cat Who Saved the Library is a powerful lesson never to underestimate the value of great literature, and a reminder to always think for ourselves.

Four Night Seas
Set across liminal landscapes, this collection of fourteen stories from award-winning author Niamh Mac Cabe feature characters navigating emotional or existential thresholds—grieving, seeking meaning, or reconciling with the past. Whether it is a reclusive sculptor haunted by guilt, a lost child drawing maps in the sand, or a greyhound silently shadowing a man to a mountain lake, Mac Cabe’s lyrical prose and inventive narrative structures evoke an eerie, tender intimacy. Rich and atmospheric, exploring themes of memory, solitude, loss, and the mysterious rhythms of nature and human connection, this collection blurs the line between the internal and external world, and invites us into spaces of beauty, melancholy and subtle transformation. Four Night Seas marks the arrival of a vital new voice in Irish writing.
Wilderness of Mirrors
To satisfy his father's request that he rescue his drifting cousin, Emil - a young Creole from a wealthy background - sets aside his medical studies to move in with his working-class relatives in the unfamiliar city of Stadmutter - the mother city. Among his indifferent kin Emil is first disquieted by days of aimlessness and then diverted by his sexual and intellectual encounters with Bolling, a rich, Haitian-German autodidact with preternatural charisma. Emil begins an ambiguous relationship with Tamsin, a graduate student obsessed with Sigmund Freud's theories and with her place in a society marked by shifting cultural hierarchies.. Beneath its veneer of indolence, Stadmutter seethes. Through his relationships with Bolling and Tamsin, Emil is pulled into the orbit of Braeem Shaka - the leader of a Creole movement that is threatening the country's fragile racial progress with its demands for reparations - and ever further from the possibility of a return to his earlier life as a promising neurosurgeon.

The Life of the Author: Geoffrey Chaucer
Explores how generations of biographers shaped, reinvented, and fabricated the life of Geoffrey Chaucer Very little is known with certainty about Geoffrey Chaucer’s life, yet he has long been enshrined as the “Father of English Poetry.” Over six centuries, biographers have sought to craft a version of Chaucer that meets the needs of their own time, culture, and readers. In doing so, they have often blurred the boundaries between evidence and invention. In Life of the Author: Geoffrey Chaucer, Simone Celine Marshall takes a distinctive approach that examines not just Chaucer himself, but the ways in which his life story has been repeatedly fabricated and reshaped to reflect broader social, cultural, and literary currents. By analyzing over two dozen biographies, Marshall demonstrates that each one is less a faithful record of Chaucer’s life than a mirror of its own era’s priorities and prejudices. Marshall situates Chaucer within a 625-year tradition of biography-making, showing how the image of the poet has been reframed over time—from Renaissance humanist, to national literary figure, to contested cultural symbol. Structured both chronologically and thematically, the book traces episodes that have particularly exercised biographers, including Chaucer’s travels, his alleged authorship of The Testament of Love, his English identity, his entanglement with accusations of rape, and even his role in colonial contexts such as New Zealand. Throughout the text, Marshall highlights how each retelling of Chaucer’s life is also a response to shifting societal concerns—about authorship, nationhood, morality, and cultural authority. A fascinating study of how lives are written, rewritten, and continually reimagined to serve evolving generations of readers, The Life of the Author: Geoffrey Chaucer: Draws from more than two dozen biographies of Geoffrey Chaucer, spanning from 1532 to 2019Examines how biography functions not just as historical record, but as cultural and societal reflectionOffers fresh insights into Chaucer’s international reception, with particular attention to colonial and postcolonial contextsInvestigates how issues of authorship, nationalism, morality, and gender shape portrayals of Chaucer over centuriesProvides a timeline of Chaucer’s known life events alongside contemporary historical and literary milestones The Life of the Author: Geoffrey Chaucer is ideal for undergraduates and postgraduates in English literature, medieval studies, and cultural history, particularly courses such as Medieval Literature, Author and Authorship Studies, and Histories of Biography within BA and MA degree programs. It is also suitable for general readers interested in Chaucer, medieval poetry, or the broader study of how literary figures are remembered and reimagined.

Dračia kaviareň
Saphira si splnila sen: v mestečku s osobitým kúzlom si otvorila kaviareň, kde sú vítaní všetci, dokonca aj dračie mláďatá. No keďže jej malí šupinatí zákazníci neustále podpaľujú zariadenie, jej podnikanie visí na vlásku.
O nezbedných dračích drobcoch vie svoje aj Aiden. Po bratovi, vychýrenom dračom jazdcovi, zdedil vajce a z neho sa vyliahol neposedný Sparky, ktorý samotárskemu majiteľovi poriadne komplikuje starostlivosť o milované rastliny. Keď Aiden vidí, ako to Saphire, odmalička túžiacej po vlastnom drakovi, so Sparkym ide, ponúkne jej dohodu. Ak mu ona vycvičí jeho neposlušné mláďa, on jej pomôže udržať kaviareň nad vodou.
Obaja vedia, že sú riešením problémov toho druhého, lenže vysmiata Saphira a mrzutý Aiden nemôžu byť rozdielnejší. Do cesty sa im stavajú temné tajomstvá dračích rodín, no aj iskry, ktoré nedbajú na triedne rozdiely. Bude aj toto nečakané vzplanutie pohromou... alebo v ich srdciach zažne viac než len vášeň?

Dlhá cesta domov
Spisovateľ Peter Valo zaznamenával príbeh otca Antona Hlinku pri rozhovoroch u saleziánov na bratislavskej Miletičke. Stručný osud tohto významného kňaza a spisovateľa zverejnil v knižke publicistických medailónov Nezostalo po nich ticho 3. Pre komplexnejší pohľad na túto osobnosť knižku plnú epizód z Hlinkovho života DLHÁ CESTA DOMOV doplnil o spomienky Hlinkových priateľov prof. Milana S. Ďuricu, Ing. Júliusa Bindera a ThDr. Jána Košiara.
Po prečítaní tejto knižky zistíme, že Hlinkove myšlienky sú aktuálne stále: „Tí, ktorí sú zodpovední za spoločné dobro, musia postihnúť tých, ktorí ohrozujú nespravodlivosťou, lžou, protiprávnym postupom, nemravným správaním spoločenské dobro alebo dobro jednotlivých občanov. Ak vládca nezaujme postoj voči nespravodlivosti, násiliu, zločinom, vypomstí sa to na spoločnosti a národe tým, že zlo bujnie a narastá do takých rozmerov, že usporiadaný život v spoločnosti sa vážne ohrozí, alebo nie je viac možný. Po každom narušení spravodlivosti musí nasledovať sankcia, aby sa nadobudla nová rovnováha a aby sa dal exemplárny príklad tým, ktorí bez dozoru spoločenských orgánov postupovali od jedného násilia k druhému, od jednej nespravodlivosti k druhej.“

Vencseng
Egyszerre lírai és brutális regény a hűségről, a szerelem erejéről és a világ kíméletlenségéről.
Egy férfi újszülött gyermekével elindul, hogy megkeresse eltűnt feleségét. Északról délre, szörnyű hóviharban megy makacsul, keresve a várost, Vencsenget – amely talán nem is létezik.
A kínai irodalom élő klasszikusának új regényét hatalmas várakozás előzte meg. Korábbi műveinek a közelmúlt vagy a jelen konkrét történelmi-politikai hátterébe helyezett és arra reflektáló cselekményvilágától eltávolodva a szerző ezúttal egy már-már kortalan történetet mesél el – bár annyit tudhatunk, hogy az 1900-as évek első évtizedeiben, a Csing-dinasztia végnapjainak és a Köztársaság korai, zűrzavaros időszakában vagyunk.
Jü Hua a rá jellemző finom, de nem szentimentális érzékenységgel vezeti végig olvasóját két lélekben összetartozó, mégis magányos ember, egy férfi és egy nő – és a gyermekük – történetén.
