Everything Will Swallow You


'One of our very best authors ... Very funny, very moving novel' The New World'Charming portrait of friendship and loneliness’ Daily Mail'Deeply comforting' Guardian'Funny, inventive and beautifully heart-breaking' Irish TimesHave you ever been curious about how people live when nobody is watching? Have you wondered whether there's more going on than meets the ey? ric and Carl live in Dorset in a small white cottage under the shadow of a big cliff. Eric sells old records and antiques. Carl cooks, cleans and crochets. Nearing seventy, Eric is a lifelong accumulator of obscure objects whose easygoing, chaotic approach to life masks some of the unaddressed sadness of his past. The significantly younger Carl is an old soul who has a sophisticated emotional intelligence and likes swimming, mid-century female novelists, fibre arts and Dolly Parton. If you passed them on a walk, you may not pay them much attention. Most likely you would see Carl’s long floppy ears, tail and fur and mistake him for a dog. The story of Eric and Carl's friendship spans twenty-one years: a constant anchor in a changing world. During that time they adopt an eccentric, unlikely gang of fellow travellers. Their wanderings through South West England unfold against a backdrop of lived, local folklore and hints at future apocalypse. All the while, Carl's true nature remains a closely guarded secret. Tom Cox's third novel is a rare gem, centred around the importance of friendship, the power of landscape and the joy of accepting the unusual. Everything Will Swallow You will make you think deeply about the place you occupy in the grand scheme of things and give fresh perspectives on how to live and love in the present moment.

Keeper of My Kin


From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Cuba: An American History comes a heartbreaking yet redemptive memoir about migration, separation, and the love of one family forcing its way through the fissures of history. In 1963, four years after Fidel Castro came to power, Ada Ferrer’s mother made the agonizing decision to flee Cuba with her infant daughter, Ada, and to leave behind her nine-year-old son, Poly. That moment was but a ripple in a much larger story of a world historical revolution. Yet, in another more intimate family history, that choice was a crossroads, ultimately inseparable from who and what they all became. In this beautiful memoir, Ferrer masterfully shifts between her roles as historian and family member, weaving a multigenerational tale that reaches into the past to understand the circumstances and choices that led to the present. We see key historical events through the eyes of the family: the grandmother who raised Poly after Ada’s departure, a Black woman born a year after the end of slavery in Cuba; Ada’s parents, forced to invent themselves anew in a foreign land; and two brothers left behind—Poly and another, once-secret brother named Juan José, both of whose lives were marked irrevocably by revolution and family separation. Moving between Cuba and the United States and then back again, the book unpacks the experience and emotion of migration, in the moment of separation and over the long-term, for those who left and those who stayed. Using a treasure trove of letters written across the gulf of family separation and found after the death of Ada’s parents, as well as government documents acquired through Freedom of Information Act requests, Ferrer offers us a profound reflection on belonging, memory, and the lasting imprint of history.

World's Edge


James Sallis’ collection of five novellas. 'James Sallis is a superb writer ' - TimesJames Sallis’ World’s Edge presents five masterful novellas—Dayenu, Carriers, Settlers, Allotments, and Reconstruction—exploring fractured societies, human resilience, and the fragile intersections of morality and survival. Sallis’s prose, as sharp as it is evocative, captures the nuances of his dystopian and near-future settings, resonating with themes of dislocation and identity. Widely regarded as a pivotal voice in contemporary US fiction, Sallis’s work aligns with literary giants such as Cormac McCarthy and Denis Johnson, weaving the poetic bleakness of the former with the incisive character studies of the latter. These stories draw readers into a world both intimate and unyielding, where existential questions lurk beneath stark, elegant narratives.

Maybe Marilyn


What if, on the night of August 5, 1962, Marilyn Monroe didn’t die? What if she got away? Because all she ever dreamed of was to disappear and have a child. Marilyn Monroe would have turned 100 on June 1, 2026, and the world is preparing for a massive centennial celebration with official festivals and events focusing on her enduring impact on film, fashion, and culture. And then there’s Lois Cahall’s new novel...Maybe Marilyn... Marilyn Monroe’s housekeeper, Eunice Murray, and her psychiatrist, Dr. Ralph Greenson, were supposedly the only two people to ever see her dead. Five hours elapsed between the time they found Marilyn’s body and the authorities were contacted. These facts beg the question: Why was the house rearranged, phone records seized, and evidence destroyed? Was her suicide stage? et in 2019, this is a novel about Marilyn Monroe the survivor instead of Marilyn Monroe the victim. When two young reporters get the tip of a lifetime, they go on an elusive search to find her—and learn a thing or two about history in the process. Whether they find Marilyn or not remains to be seen, but what they do find is her granddaughter—alive and well—living up on Cape Cod. Biographers have long claimed that there is a world of devoted fans who hunger to bring their idol back to life. Their hunger has never waned. Nor have the flawed reports.… #MarilynLives
