Twelve Post-War Tales
The remarkable new work of fiction from the Booker Prize-winning author of Last Orders, Waterland and Mothering Sunday'His archly modulated, precise prose, reminiscent at times of his friend Kazuo Ishiguro’s, has lost none of its power ... immensely readable late-career Swift from start to finish, Twelve Post-War Tales is a marvel of the storyteller's art.' Financial Times‘There can surely be no better contemporary writer to take on history’s circularities that Graham Swift. … “Growing up in the 1950s there was all the evidence of war.” Swift has said. This beautiful cluster of stories shows how vital it remains in recollection.’ Observer'Skilful, generous and humane, these 12 tales suggest the complexity and heartbreak of being engaged on such an uncertain journey.' Guardian‘The characters in this collection share their thoughts and memories with the reader as though with a close friend, and the warmth of their confidences balances against their sadness. We feel we’ve been in the trenches with them, even when a story has gone no farther than the living room.’ Wall Street Journal'These stories, depth charges of love, anguish, resentment, each in their way relating to the effects of WW2, are so good. Swift at his best – and he’s on top form here – has the humanity and wry humour of William Trevor’, Patrick Gale'Quite wonderful. Such grace and clarity - I'm filled with admiration', Philip PullmanIn the aftermath of the Second World War Private Joseph Caan, a young Jewish soldier stationed in Germany, seeks the truth about lost family members; in the 1960s a father focuses on his daughter’s wedding even as the Cuban Missile Crisis brings the world to the brink of disaster; in 2001, while planes fly into the Twin Towers, a maid working for US Embassy staff in London wonders if her birth on the day of the Kennedy assassination shaped her life; and at the height of a pandemic lockdown, Dr. Cole, a retired specialist in respiratory disease, returns to work and recalls a formative childhood encounter with illness and much more. These are just a few of the challenged characters we meet in Graham Swift’s Twelve Post-war Tales. Tender, humane, funny and moving, Swift’s latest work of fiction displays his quietly commanding ability to set the personal and the ordinary against the harsh sweep of history. It is an outstanding achievement, confirming his status as one of the great and subtlest voices of our age.
Frida Slattery As Herself
‘This sweeping will-they-won’t-they love story has echoes of One Day' Sunday Times‘Took me back to the way I felt when reading Normal People’ Stylist‘A sexy, sprawling epic’ Glamour ‘Gorgeous, immersive’ Roisín O'Donnell'Moving, thought-provoking and utterly delightful’ Elif Batuman A BBC Culture Pick for 2026 ‘You could probably run cities on the energy generated between directors like him and actresses like her’When Frida Slattery and John Reddan meet in a Dublin pub in 2005, neither can imagine how they will come to shape and define each other’s lives. Frida is struggling to launch her acting career, while John is already gaining a name for himself as a director. From the first they see in each other potential and the chance to create work that matters, though the lines between collaboration and exploitation, friendship and desire will prove dangerously slippery. With the financial crisis looming, the next 16 years takes them from Dublin to London, via New York and LA, and through success and disappointment, joy and heartbreak. Their connection is tested and stretched to the point of rupture, but something remains that outlasts both their work and their own shifting perceptions. FRIDA SLATTERY AS HERSELF is an unforgettable story of love, artistic collaboration, and two people coming of age, together and apart. Readers are loving FRIDA SLATTERY'Totally riveting. A propulsive and compelling story of love, collaboration and all its complexities’‘Funny and wise with so many interesting ideas about relationships and making art and growing up. Will be great for Sally Rooney readers and for fans of La La Land’‘I love this book with a passion. These characters feel so real – they are raw, frustrating, flawed, and addictive!’'An absorbing, wise and honest read… I'll be recommending it to everyone!’ – Lizzy Stewart, author of ALISON and THE WRECK‘A virtuosic and assured journey through two entwined lives – I was so wholly and breathtakingly invested in each character that I felt genuinely bereft when I was finished. It has such heart and vibrancy, and an abundance of style' – Sophie Mackintosh, author of THE WATER CURE and PERMANENCE'An expansive, deeply felt love letter to artistic expression, as compelling and ambitious as it is beautifully written. Ana Kinsella handles big themes – power, desire, success – with great subtlety and skill’ - Lisa Owens, author of NOT WORKING and NATURAL DISASTER

Drawn from the therapy room to the crime scene, Pat begins to notice what others appear to overlook. At her side is her best friend Prichard — a home-brewer of fearsome, stomach-turning concoctions, an excellent cook, and a man who seems to get along with everyone.

As Pat and Prichard look beneath the village’s thin veneer of normality — one that barely conceals its appetites — they discover a killer hiding in plain sight. Shrink Solves Murder is a warm, witty, and perceptive crime caper from the nation’s favourite therapist.

Aphrodite
From the author of Herc, a Waterstones Best Book of the Year ‘Particularly skilled in evoking the strangeness and contradictoriness of Greek myths’ Sunday Times ‘A joyful exploration of one woman's quest for home, power, identity and ultimately, freedom from fate. A genuine pleasure to read!’ Clare North, author of Ithaca * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ‘I’m a liar, to begin with.’ I wasn’t always a goddess, you see. My only real power was my beauty – you’ll have heard. It’s legendary. But that was never going to be enough for me. It took a web of lies to convince the gods of Olympus I was one of them. But I did. I was that good. Zeus gave me a title and riches and loved me. And all he wanted in return was for me to love him back. But of course, Zeus was a tyrant. (Not entirely surprising when you’re ninety per cent insecurities and ten per cent raw power.) I couldn’t live at someone’s mercy. Really, I had no choice. I had to take on the mightiest Olympian of all. And this bit’s not a lie… I intended to win. A wonderful tale set in Ancient Greece where a being with no power rises to the very top by outwitting other gods all while maintaining a sense of exactly who she is – a goddess who intends to always do it her way. Perfect for fans of Ferdia Lennon, Madeline Miller and Jennifer Saint * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Authors and readers ADORE Aphrodite: 'Sparkles with wicked humour and boundless imagination' Kate Heartfield, Sunday Times bestselling author ‘Welcome the Real Housewives of Olympus. Stunning, brilliant, witty, so delicious it could only be divine’ Reader review 'Wit and verve, contrasting laugh-out-loud humour with moments of surprising tenderness' Luna McNamara, author of Pysche and Eros 'With sharp dialogue and dynamic scenes, it plays like a divine reality show' Woman&Home 'I can't emphasise enough how much I adored this version of Aphrodite – wickedly funny, caustic, fierce, playful and cheeky yet with a soft centre' Reader review 'Aphrodite gives a human voice to the inhuman goddess that you can’t help but love' Lizzy Tiffin, author of Bad Girls of Ancient Greece 'If you’ve ever wondered what Tina Fey retelling your favorite myths would be like, Phoenicia Rogerson has the answer' Ian Doescher, author of the William Shakespeare's Star Wars series 'Greek Mythology has never been so engaging, witty and clever as now!'

Breathlessly compulsive courtroom drama with expertly-crafted twists that you won't see coming, Dissection of a Murder is the razor-sharp debut novel from Jo Murray.
A dead judge. A silent defendant. And a courtroom full of liars.
When Leila Reynolds is handed her first murder case, she's shocked at how high-profile it is: the murder of a well-respected, well-known judge. This shouldn't be the kind of case she's leading; it's way beyond her expertise. But the defendant, Jack Millman, is clear. He wants her, and only her.
To make things worse, he's refusing to talk. How is she supposed to prove herself on what appears to be an unwinnable case?
Losing is not an option. She must find the most persuasive argument. Trials aren't won by convincing judges or fellow barristers - they're all about convincing a jury.
Suddenly, Leila finds herself fighting not only to keep Jack out of prison, but also to keep her own secrets buried.
It's true what they say - there are two sides to every story.
Guilty or not guilty?
You decide . . .
