Eclipse
The first of John Banville’s novels concerning father and daughter Alexander and Cass Cleave, Eclipse is a lyrical exploration of memory, family and identity.Alexander Cleave, actor, has left his career and his family behind and banished himself to his childhood home. He wants to retire from life, but finds this impossible in a house brimming with presences, some ghostly, some undeniably human. Memories and anxiety for the future, and more particularly for his beloved but troubled daughter, conspire to distract him from his dreaming retirement.This humane and beautifully written story tells the tragic tale of a man, intelligent, preposterous and vulnerable, who in attempting to bring the performance to a close finds himself travelling inevitably towards a devastating denouement.‘This unsparing, compassionate, humane book demonstrates again that Banville is in a class of his own’ The SpectatorNow part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

A single terrible mistake cost David Hawkins everything. His marriage. His relationship with his daughter - and his career in the SAS. Now Hawkins is a man on the downward slope of life.

But when a talented young engineer dies in mysterious circumstances, Hawkins is sent down to Plymouth to investigate. Working alongside the company's new cyber-security expert, Alex Millar, Hawkins must find out who murdered the engineer - and why. What begins as a straightforward case soon turns into a deadly manhunt, as Hawkins and Millar pursue their quarry from the streets of Liverpool to the Firth of Clyde, in a frantic race against time to expose a deadly conspiracy targeting the heart of the UK's defences. Win, and they'll prevent a terrifying attack. Fail, and Britain will be at the mercy of its deadliest enemy...
A Sociopaths Guide to a Successful Marriage
There's a dead body in my living room.
I've not called the police because it was I who stabbed him. Seven times in all. The truth is, it's surprisingly difficult to dispatch someone with a vegetable knife.
In case you're wondering, the dead man is not my husband. I do resent our pitiful sex life and his woeful lack of ambition, but I wouldn't murder him for it. Not yet, anyway.
Right now, I have far more pressing concerns: scheming to get my daughter into the perfect school; buying my dream home in Hampstead; and disposing of a corpse.
A woman's work is never done. I've created the perfect life - and I'll kill to keep it.

Catherine: A Retelling of Wuthering Heights
The greatest tragic love story ever told – but this time, Catherine tells it herself. In Catherine, Essie Fox breathes new life into Wuthering Heights, transforming a gothic masterpiece into a haunting confession of obsession, madness and love that even death cannot end.
With a nature as wild as the moors she loves to roam, Catherine Earnshaw grows up alongside Heathcliff, a foundling her father rescued from the streets of Liverpool. Their fierce, untamed bond deepens as they grow – until Mr Earnshaw’s death leaves Hindley, Catherine’s brutal brother, in control and Heathcliff reduced to servitude.
Desperate to protect him, Catherine turns to Edgar Linton, the handsome heir to Thrushcross Grange. She believes his wealth might free Heathcliff from cruelty – but her choice is fatally misunderstood, and their lives spiral into a storm of passion, jealousy and revenge.
Now, eighteen years later, Catherine rises from her grave to tell her story – and seek redemption.
Essie Fox’s Catherine reimagines Wuthering Heights with beauty and intensity – a haunting, atmospheric retelling that brings new life to a timeless classic and lays bare the dark heart of an immortal love.
Tünetek
A tó vize sohasem édes szerzőjétől
Loris fiatal, művelt, céltudatos. Egy sikeres könyvkiadóban dolgozik, a párkapcsolata rendezett, élete a felszínen éppoly stabil, mint amilyenre vágyik. Mégis minden szétesik körülötte. A teste jelzéseket küld, de az orvosi vizsgálatok szerint minden rendben. Csakhogy semmi sincs rendben. A mélypont felé közeledve Loris lassan rájön, hogy nem a gyógyulást, hanem önmaga megértését kell keresnie.
Caminito írásaiban a társadalmi különbségek, a női tapasztalat és a fiatal generációk láthatatlan terhei állnak középpontban. Új regénye pontosan ábrázolja a modern élet láthatatlan kríziseit: a szorongást, a túlterheltséget, a csendes lemondást, amit senki sem nevez betegségnek. A Tünetek egy generáció belső összeomlásának története, amely fájdalmasan ismerős lehet mindannyiunk számára.
„És ekkor észrevesz valamit: a fájdalom kezd feláramlani a mellkasába és a bal karjába, zuhanásérzet fogja el, közeledik a pánik, és hamarosan infarktustünetei lesznek, amiken nem tud úrrá lenni, sőt biztosra veszi majd, hogy infarktust kapott. Miért hazudik nekem ez a test, kérdi magától, miért képes a legszörnyűbb bajokat is szimulálni?”

Kepler
The second volume of John Banville’s Revolutions Trilogy and winner of the Guardian Fiction Prize, Kepler is a gorgeous historical novel exploring the life of Johannes Kepler, one of the world’s greatest mathematicians.Johannes Kepler, born in 1571 in south Germany, was one of the world’s greatest mathematicians and astronomers. The novel Kepler, by John Banville, brilliantly recreates his life and his incredible drive to chart the orbits of the planets and the geometry of the universe while being driven from exile to exile by religious and domestic strife. At the same time it illuminates the harsh realities of the Renaissance world; rich in imaginative daring but rooted in poverty, squalor and the tyrannical power of emperors.‘Superbly illuminates the man, the time, and the everlasting quest for knowledge’ The Observer

To Lose a War
Jon Lee Anderson first reported from Afghanistan in the late 1980s, covering the US-backed mujahideen’s insurrection against the Soviet-backed regime in Kabul. Within days of the 9/11 attacks, he was again on the ground as an early eyewitness to the new war launched by the US against the Taliban and their Al Qaeda allies. At the time, the American military had prevailed on the battlefield, and the newfound peace seemed to offer a precious space for Afghan society to restore itself and to forge a democratic future. But all was not well: Osama bin Laden was still in hiding, the Taliban were stealthily reorganizing for a comeback, and the United States was about to turn its attention to Iraq. To Lose a War collects Anderson’s writing from Afghanistan over a near-quarter-century span, offering a chronological account of a monumental tragedy as it unfolds. The colossal waste, missed signals, and wishful thinking that characterized the twenty-year arc of the US-led war in Afghanistan have consecrated it as one of the greatest foreign policy failures of the modern era, and a bellwether of a larger American imperial decline.
Looking at Women, Looking at War
WINNER OF THE ORWELL PRIZE
WITH A FOREWORD FROM MARGARET ATWOOD
'This book would always have been important evidence that the Ukraine people were suffering criminal attack. Written by a poet, it is also a work of literature, published after the author lost her life doing her research. It is an icon of a young woman's heroism' Philippa Gregory
Destined to be a classic, a poet's powerful look at the courage of resistance.
When Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Victoria Amelina was busy writing a novel, taking part in the country's literary scene, and parenting her son. Then she became someone new: a war crimes researcher and the chronicler of extraordinary women like herself who joined the resistance. These heroines include Evgenia, a prominent lawyer turned soldier, Oleksandra, who documented tens of thousands of war crimes and won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2022, and Yulia, a librarian who helped uncover the abduction and murder of a children's book author.
Everyone in Ukraine knew that Amelina was documenting the war. She photographed the ruins of schools and cultural centers; she recorded the testimonies of survivors and eyewitnesses to atrocities. And she slowly turned back into a storyteller, writing what would become this book.
On the evening of June 27th, 2023, Amelina and three international writers stopped for dinner in the embattled Donetsk region. Whena Russian cruise missile hit the restaurant, Amelina suffered grievous head injuries, and lost consciousness. She died on July 1st. She was thirty-seven. She left behind an incredible account of the ravages of war and the cost of resistance. Honest, intimate, and wry, this book will be celebrated as a classic.
This Is a Love Story
''Unapologetically romantic: complicated, colourful and includes many tales that tug at the heartstrings. Soffer''s saga goes down like bittersweet chocolate, with a hint of sugar to soften the sharp edge of loss'' New York Times''One of the best love stories I have read in a long time'' 5-star NetGalley Review''Can something be quiet and intimate yet impactful and expansive? Because that''s the best way I can describe this book. I''m going to need some time to process this one!'' 5-star NetGalley Review''Lyrical, graceful - Jessica Soffer has captured the glittering magic of New York City'' Jenny Jackson, NYT-bestselling author of Pineapple Street''A revelation - the kind of novel to read in one sitting'' Liz Moore, bestselling author of The God of the WoodsAbe and Jane have been together for fifty years: as two among the thousands of starry-eyed young lovers in Central Park, as frustrated and exhausted parents, as an artist and a writer whose careers were taking flight. Now, Jane is seriously unwell, and together she and Abe look back on their marriage - on the parts they cherished, and those they didn''t: Abe''s early betrayal; and the trials of raising their son Max, who, now grown, still believes his mother chose art over parenthood.A homage to New York, to pleasure, loss and love that endures despite or perhaps because of what life throws at us, This Is a Love Story brings these layered voices together in a chorus as complex, radiant and captivating as the city itself.
