Climate disaster–induced fugue states, mutinous polar bears, support groups for recently displaced millionaires, men who hear trees, and women who lose their wives on environmental refugee resettlement trips. In these dispatches from a weirding world, the absurd and fantastic are increasingly indistinguishable from reality. Exploring this liminal moment, Ashley Shelby's collection of climate fictions imagines a near future that is both unnervingly familiar and subversively strange.

This delightfully clever, artfully layered novel begins when a scientist who has written a popular book of non-fiction attends a literary festival, where she strikes up a friendship with a charismatic novelist. The novelist reveals that her new work is an experiment: a novella she wrote in English only to have it translated and published solely in French—a language the novelist cannot read. Moreover, she has lost her original English manuscript of this work. Hearing this, the scientist, who is fluent in French, impulsively offers to retranslate the novella back into English for the novelist.

A debut collection of four intriguing stories from a talent that will leave you wanting more.

Reggio Calabria, primi anni Ottanta. La sedicenne Lucia Carbone, studentessa del liceo classico, sequestra un compagno di scuola e lo imprigiona nello scantinato della casa della nonna morta da pochi mesi. Il ragazzo, Rosario Cristallo, è figlio d'un boss dell'Aspromonte, e Lucia lo ha rapito per due buone (o cattive) ragioni: la prima è che la sua migliore amica ne è innamorata, e vuole tenerlo lontano da lei, la seconda è che forse Rosario sa qualcosa sull'assassinio di una zia amatissima.

“I wanted the knack of existing. I did not know the rules.” These words from Josephine, the heroine of Jennifer Dawson’s remarkable novel, encapsulate the journey of a young woman grappling with mental illness amidst the hallowed halls of Oxford University in the 1950s. Originally published in 1961, this novel met with critical acclaim, and is a rediscovered classic perfect for fans of Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar.

Sally Quinn, acclaimed Washington Post journalist, bestselling author, and cofounder with historian and author Jon Meacham of The Washington Post’s On Faith website, is known for sparking national conversations around politics, spirituality, and love. In her latest novel Silent Retreat, Quinn presents listeners with a vivid and provocative love story that walks the electric tightrope between faith and sensuality, restraint and ecstasy, duty and longing.

Trinidad, 1980: Dawn Bishop, aged 16, leaves her home and journeys across the sea to Venezuela. There, she gives birth to a baby girl, and leaves her with nuns to be given up for adoption. Dawn tries to carry on with her life - a move to England, a marriage, a career, two sons, a divorce - but through it all, she still thinks of the child she had in Venezuela, and of what might have been. When, forty years later, a woman from an internet forum gets in touch, saying that she might be Dawn's long-lost daughter, it stirs up a complicated mix of feelings.
