WINNER OF THE GILLER PRIZE 2025A TLS AND TIME MAGAZINE BOOK OF THE YEARFrom Giller Prize and O. Henry Award winner Souvankham Thammavongsa comes a revelatory novel about loneliness, love, labor, and class. 'I live in a world of Susans. I got name tags for everyone who works at this nail salon, and on every one is printed the name "Susan".'‘One of the greatest novels I have ever read’ RITA BULWINKELL‘Wickedly funny and moving’ AVNI DOSHI‘A knockout: every punch lands’ ELEANOR CATTONNing is a retired boxer, but to the customers who visit her nail salon, she is just another worker named Susan. On this summer's day, much like any other, the Susans buff and clip and polish and tweeze. They listen and smile and nod. But beneath this superficial veneer, Ning is a woman of rigorous intellect and profound depth. A woman enthralled by the intricacy and rhythms of her work, but also haunted by memories of paths not taken and opportunities lost. A woman navigating the complicated power dynamics among her fellow Susans, whose greatest fears and desires lie just behind the gossip they exchange. As the day's work grinds on, the friction between Ning's two identities – as anonymous manicurist and brilliant observer of her own circumstances – will gather electric and crackling force, and at last demand a reckoning with the way the world of privilege looks at a woman like Ning. Told over a single day with razor-sharp precision and wit, Pick a Colour confirms Souvankham Thammavongsa's place as literature's premier chronicler of the immigrant experience, in its myriad, complex, and slyly subversive forms. 'Hauntingly good' ED PARK‘Subverts the comforting mundane’ PITCHAYA SUDBANTHAD‘A master over the sentence’ DAISY JOHNSONReader Reviews:'Unlike anything I've read before, a talent to watch' (5-star review)'The prose was liquid gold' (5-star review)'I was devastated to finish it so soon' (5-star review)

Algot, Anna Stina and the Water of Life
Jonas Jonasson is back with another irresistible adventure, this time set in nineteenth century Sweden.
After his father's death is caused by the greedy and cunning Count Bielkegren, Algot Olsson is left with nothing to his name, except for a potato field and a homemade still to make liquor. But Algot is smart, ambitious and resourceful, and it's not long before he masters the lucrative art of distilling spirits. When his schnapps become a sensation, he finds his success once again attracts the envy of the Count, who will do everything in his power to sabotage Algot's budding business.
Thankfully, however, Algot isn't alone. With the support of his friend Helmut, a Bavarian printer with a flexible relationship to the truth, and Helmut's daughter Anna Stina, who is as strong-willed as she is charming, he might just have the creativity and the courage to outsmart the Count's schemes once and for all … and perhaps there's even time for romance along the way.
Full of sharp humour, wonderfully absurd twists and memorable characters, Algot, Anna Stina and the Water of Life is an irresistible adventure of friendship, love and ingenuity.
