Book SynopsisA masterpiece of black humour from the renown comic and acclaimed author of ‘At Swim-Two-Birds’ – Flann O’Brien.Trade Review‘Flann O’Brien learned from Joyce the art of tuning language to a lyrical pitch, which he could then turn to his purpose, whether it was to be plain foolery, unconcealed indignation or high comedy. The best of his contemporaries and many subsequent Irish writers have much to thank him for.’ Sunday Times ‘Flann O’Brien is inventive, his storytelling is swift and sure, making the eccentric seem natural and the commonplace hilarious.’ The Times ‘Even with “Ulysses” and “Finnegans Wake” behind him, James Joyce might have been envious.’ Observer ‘Wonderful. “The Third Policeman” is a great masterpiece of black humour.’ George Mackay Brown

Book SynopsisA vivid and immersive story of obsession perfect for fans of dark academia and Donna Tartt's The Secret History Oliver Marks has just served ten years for the murder of one of his closest friends - a murder he may or may not have committed. On the day he's released, he's greeted by the detective who put him in prison. Detective Colborne is retiring, but before he does, he wants to know what really happened ten years ago. As a young actor studying Shakespeare at an elite arts conservatory, Oliver noticed that his talented classmates seem to play the same roles onstage and off - villain, hero, tyrant, temptress - though Oliver felt doomed to always be a secondary character in someone else's story. But when the teachers change up the casting, a good-natured rivalry turns ugly, and the plays spill dangerously over into life. When tragedy strikes, one of the seven friends is found dead. The rest face their greatest acting challenge yet: convincing the police, and themselves, that they are blameless.

Book SynopsisLONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN''S PRIZE FOR FICTIONA BBC 2 ''BETWEEN THE COVERS'' BOOK CLUB PICK''Wonderful'' RICHARD OSMAN''Perfect'' INDIA KNIGHT''Beautiful'' JESSIE BURTON''Witty and sharp'' DAVID NICHOLLS1957, the suburbs of south east London. Jean Swinney is a journalist on a local paper, trapped in a life of duty and disappointment from which there is no likelihood of escape. When a young woman, Gretchen Tilbury, contacts the paper to claim that her daughter is the result of a virgin birth, it is down to Jean to discover whether she is a miracle or a fraud. As the investigation turns her quiet life inside out, Jean is suddenly given an unexpected chance at friendship, love and - possibly - happiness.''Gorgeous . . . I could not recommend it more'' PANDORA SYKES''Remarkable . . . Small Pleasures is no small pleasure'' THE TIMES''Irresistible . . . wry, perceptive and quietlyTrade ReviewA very fine book... It's witty and sharp and reads like something by Barbara Pym or Anita Brookner, without ever feeling like a pastiche. * David Nicholls, author of ONE DAY *Perfect. * India Knight *Small lives, love and loneliness, wit and despair all wrapped in an unexpected mystery and placed in a perfectly-realised 50s setting. Effortless to read, but every sentence lingers in the mind. * Lissa Evans, author of OLD BAGGAGE *This is one of the most tender, beautiful books I have ever read. Please, please order it now for July. I honestly don't want you to be without it. It is exquisite. * Lucy Mangan *I've had about five people recommend this to me, which is quite rare... It's a novel about the last throw of the dice, the last chance perhaps of finding a life of happiness when you've had a struggle. The writing is beautiful. This is also the first novel Chambers has written for 10 years, which I find really inspiring. I think there's this discourse in our culture that you've got to have everything done in your first book ... But Chambers has been away for 10 years and she's come back with this absolute humdinger. It's just so nice to read a book by someone who's so confident with their talent. I'm glad she's having this renaissance. * Jessie Burton *Quietly remarkable... Small Pleasures is no small pleasure. -- Andrew Billen * THE TIMES *Small Pleasures is an almost flawlessly written tale of genuine, grown-up romantic anguish. Written in prose that is clipped as closely as suburban hedges, this is a book about seemingly mild people concealing turbulent feelings... one of the great strengths of the book is its tender, atmospheric descriptions of England: wet leaves, misted windows, the "melancholy sense of approaching dusk". Small Pleasures succeeds in creating one of those enclosed fictional worlds that, however desolate, has its own rules, its own flavour and its own charm. -- Johanna Thomas-Corr * THE SUNDAY TIMES *There's compassion and quiet humour to be found in this tale of a putative virgin birth in postwar suburban London... Chambers's eye for drab, undemonstrative details achieves a Larkin-esque lucidity. -- Alfred Hickling * GUARDIAN *An irresistible novel - wry, perceptive and quietly devastating. -- Hephzibah Anderson * MAIL ON SUNDAY *Small Pleasures is no twee romance, but a quietly compelling novel of duty and desire. -- Francesca Carington * THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH *Wonderful. * Richard Osman *A wonderful novel. I loved it. * Nina Stibbe *Miraculous. * Tracy Chevalier *A beautiful and moving read set in 1950s suburbia that'll be on bookseller tables across the land this summer -- Francesca Brown * STYLIST *This is a dazzling, exquisitely written story of how happiness and even love can find us when we least expect it. -- Sarra Manning * RED *There are small pleasures aplenty in Clare Chambers' quietly observed, 1950s-set story... Chambers' novel combines a startling storyline with an engagingly nuanced portrait of post-war suburban femininity. -- Claire Allfree * METRO *A stunning novel to steal your heart. * WOMAN & HOME *A wonderfully compassionate imagining of the post-war years, darned with the fine skeins of love. -- Kerry Fowler * SAINSBURY’S MAGAZINE *I loved this novel, which simmers with repressed emotions, and the gut punch of an ending really stayed with me. -- Jo Finney * GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, Book of the Month *The glorious literary equivalent of pulling the duvet over your head... Both an absorbing mystery and a tender love story - and the ending is devastating. Chambers is a writer who finds the truth in things. If you admire Tessa Hadley or Anne Tyler (and there are shades of Barbara Pym too), then this is one for you. -- Alice O'Keefe * The Bookseller, Book of the Month *It is a glorious piece of storytelling where powerful emotions and awful revelations are treated with a dignity that makes them all the more devastating. -- Eithne Farry * DAILY MIRROR *A gentle, heart-aching mystery that's infused with empathy and a keen understanding of stifling 1950s mores. -- Stephanie Cross * DAILY MAIL *The author's first novel in almost 10 years is so good it made me want to read her entire backlist!.. An enticing read. -- Nina Pottell * PRIMA *I am perverse about those books that acquire a sudden, unexpected popularity; perhaps a combination of natural contrariness and fear of being out of step with the cultural zeitgeist. I'm glad I overcame that irrational prejudice for Small Pleasures by Clare Chambers, another story of lives that appear to have hit the buffers... A little gem of a book that transplants the listener quite elsewhere, while exploring the abiding issue of how much we are prepared to suspend our disbelief if we glimpse a chance of happiness. * Financial Times (Best Audiobooks) *Clare Chambers's novel is a delight to read: completely and utterly haunting... Quietly confident with moments of vibrant humour, this is an exquisitely drawn study of human fragility. -- Helena Gumley-Mason * THE LADY *Part mystery, part love story, part reflection on changing attitudes to sexuality in post-war Britain, Small Pleasures is a disarmingly gentle read that quietly builds to a devastating conclusion. -- Scarlett Sangster * PRESS ASSOCIATION - syndicated across regional newspapers and websites *A devourable mystery with a side order of love story set in 1950s suburbia. -- Rosamund Dean * GRAZIA *Hauntingly tender, and written with powerful grace, Clare Chambers's Small Pleasures is an absolute joy from start to finish... Laying bare a quivering three-way tug between obligation, propriety and passion, and the inexplicable way thunderbolt-bonds are formed between similar-souled individuals, Jean's conflicts and chance to love truly get under your skin. What a remarkable book, with a dagger-sharp climax that will pierce your heart. * LOVEREADING - July Picks of the Month and a Star Book *Beautiful... Small Pleasures is a sort of meditation on finding moments of joy (a solo cigarette, a melting ice-cream) in a context of wider sadness. * Emma Beddington in the Observer Magazine *Small Pleasures is a tender and heart-rending tale that will draw you in from the first page and keep you gripped until the very end. Exquisitely compelling! * Ruth Hogan, author of THE KEEPER OF LOST THINGS *Clare Chambers is that rare thing, a novelist of discreet hilarity, deep compassion and stiletto wit whose perspicacious account of suburban lives with their quiet desperation and unexpected passion makes her the 21st century heir to Jane Austen, Barbara Pym and Elizabeth Taylor. Small Pleasures is both gripping and a huge delight. I loved what she did with the trope of the claim of a virgin birth, and how the hope of a miracle opens the door to love, kindness and hope in an arid existence. This is better than Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine and deserves just as much acclaim. * Amanda Craig, author of THE LIE OF THE LAND *Clare Chambers is such a witty, astute and subtle writer. There is a delightful whiff of Pym or Whipple about Small Pleasures - it's an absolute delight! * Lucy Atkins, author of MAGPIE LANE *Elegant, compelling, funny, sad. I loved every word of this tone perfect novel. I was so absorbed I stopped only to wonder if the author had squirrelled away a lost classic by Barbara Pym and presented it as her own. * Polly Samson, author of A THEATRE FOR DREAMERS *Small Pleasures is a gorgeous treat of a novel: the premise is fascinating, the characters beautifully drawn and utterly compelling, the period setting masterfully and delicately evoked, and the plot is full of unexpected twists and turns. And oh, the finale broke my heart. I just couldn't put this novel down. * Laura Barnett, #1 bestselling author of THE VERSIONS OF US *I adored Small Pleasures. It's engrossing and gripping: you want to race on and relish every sentence at the same time. I love the way Clare writes - her wry, subtle turns of phrase, the humour in the smallest of observations, the finely drawn characters. A wonderful book' * Sabine Durrant, author of LIE WITH ME *A delicious mystery and a touching exploration of loneliness and desire in cloying 1950s suburbia - a great read. * Sally Magnusson, author of THE SEALWOMAN'S GIFT *Small Pleasures is the best sort of book: full of longing, regret and difficult emotions but leavened with so much warmth and humour it was a joy from start to finish. * Francesca Jakobi, author of BITTER *The must-read uplifting book of the summer. * WEST END LANE BOOKSHOP *You know one of those rare books that just immerses you with its richly constructed world and compelling narrative. Well, Small Pleasures is that book. * BOOK RIOT, Best Books of Summer 2020 *Praise for the audiobook:Narrated by Karen Cass, who ably gives voice to a range of characters including lugubrious journalists, the potential trickster, Swiss woman Gretchen Tilbury, and her phlegmatic husband Howard, it's a little gem of a book that transplants the listener quite elsewhere, while exploring the abiding issue of how much we are prepared to suspend our disbelief if we glimpse a chance of happiness. * FINANCIAL TIMES *The novel's charms lie less in its sensational subject than in the journalist's tentative efforts to escape the drab horizons of her daily existence. Quietly perfect. -- Claire Allfree * EVENING STANDARD, Books of the Year *Blissful. -- Cressida Connelly * THE SPECTATOR, Books of the Year *This is a dazzling, exquisitely written story of how happiness and even love can find us when we least expect it. -- Sarra Manning * RED MAGAZINE, 10 Best Books of 2020 *This novel brings a sensibility not unlike those of Barbara Pym and Philip Larkin to a story (inspired by a real-life episode in the 1950s) of a woman who claims to have had a child by virgin birth... In a milieu of reticence and chin-up stoicism, startling revelations surface and emotions hopefully stir. -- Peter Kemp * THE TIMES, Best Novels of 2020 *Made me want to read the whole of her back catalogue!... An enticing read. -- Nina Pottell * PRIMA, Books of the Year *One of the year's most quietly affecting books... achingly tender. * THE DAILY TELEGRAPH, Books of the Year *PRAISE FOR CLARE CHAMBERS'Clare Chambers is a diamond in the dust' Independent on Sunday'Clare Chambers' characters are so vivid that, by the end of the book, they feel like old friends' Daily MailA book I very much enjoyed and will be gifting is SMALL PLEASURES by Clare Chambers. It's a love story tangled up with a very satisfying mystery. The portrayal of post-war suburbia, its boredom and frustration, is so vivid and you long for the characters to find happiness. It's Brief Encounter with an ingenious twist. -- David Nicholls * GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, Books of the Year *Set in 1957, Chambers' atmospheric tale of lonely journalist Jean and her last chance at love is compelling, beautifully written and will shatter your heart into smithereens. Unmissable. -- Charlotte Heathcote * DAILY EXPRESS, Books of the Year *Clare Chambers' novels have a unique quality of elegiac charm, and Small Pleasures, her breakthrough success, is set inrecognisable 1950s' Kent. The setting alone is a wonderful escape from our own big bad reality and the plot - based on a true story of a woman who claimed to have undergone a virgin birth - is both striking and atmospheric. Hers is a lost suburban world of quiet anguish and inhibited ecstasies. Chambers is compared to Barbara Pym but is more joyful andaddictive. I was hooked from her first novel. Treat yourself to all her work. -- Jane Thynne * THE TABLET, Best Books of the Year *Some of the year's most purely enjoyable reading could be found in this perfectly formed, 1950s-set tale... A droll, charming and wholly absorbing blend of period mystery and romance. -- Anthony Cummins * METRO, Books of the Year *I loved this book. Thoughtful and empathetic storytelling that is full of suspense. It is full of conflict, asking questions about duty and happiness. -- Jamie Klingler * I NEWSPAPER *Clare Chambers's bittersweet novel of unexpected late love is beautifully observed and quietly compelling. -- Jane Shilling * DAILY MAIL *

Book Synopsis'An irresistible Hitchcockian gem: a fiendishly-plotted crime novel told in crisp, elegant prose' Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train 'Matsumoto was Japan's Agatha Christie' Laura Hackett, The Sunday Times 'It was a puzzle with no solution. But he did not lose heart.' In a rocky cove in the bay of Hakata, the bodies of a young and beautiful couple are discovered. Stood in the coast's wind and cold, the police see nothing to investigate: the flush of the couple's cheeks speaks clearly of cyanide, of a lovers' suicide. But in the eyes of two men, Torigai Jutaro, a senior detective, and Kiichi Mihara, a young gun from Tokyo, something is not quite right.

I hope this is the inauguration of a series that lasts long enough to make Harry Potter look like a flash in the pan * Jake Kerridge, The Daily Telegraph *The appeal of The Cuckoo's Calling doesn't depend at all on Rowling's prior status. All credit to her: she has created a really good series here. Strike will be back * Evening Standard *Rowling's descriptions of contemporary London are excellent * Mail on Sunday *It should come as no surprise that her first foray into crime fiction is so accomplished . . . a brilliant depiction of London life . . . at heart it's an engrossing and well-crafted who-dunnit. Unsurprisingly excellent * Sunday Mirror *It's probably best, for the moment, to forget Robert Galbraith's real identity; this is a very good book in its own right * Independent *Her crime debut beguilingly shows that she can renounce magic and yet be magical * Sunday Times *An accomplished piece that thoroughly deserves its retrospective success * Financial Times *A gripping, finely crafted and atmospheric mystery, and its charismatic hero, ex-solder-turned-private-eye Cormoran Strike, is a brilliant creation * Sunday Business Post *Beautifully written with a terrific plot ... It's a terrific read, gripping, original and funny ... Please, please give us more of Robert Galbraith and Cormoran Strike * Daily Express *The work of a master storyteller . . . This is a sharply contemporary novel full of old-fashioned virtues * Telegraph *Robert Galbraith has written a highly entertaining book ... Even better, he has introduced an appealing protagonist in Strike, who's sure to be the star of many sequels to come * New York Times *The master is back. In The Cuckoo's Calling, a detective novel that Rowling published under the pseudonym of Robert Galbraith, she returns to the strengths that made Harry Potter - the beautiful sense of pacing, the deep but illusionless love for her characters - without sacrificing the expanded range of The Casual Vacancy. In doing so, she's written one of the books of the year * Charles Finch, USA Today *Rowling moves through the polished world of fashion designers and rock stars with the same aplomb as she did when writing about wizards and witches * Vogue *Rowling switches genres seamlessly ... A gritty, absorbing tale * Ellen Shapiro, People *Cleverly plotted ... Rowling serves up a sushi platter of red herring, sprinkling clues along the way, before Strike draws a confession out of the killer in a climax straight out of Agatha Christie * Entertainment Weekly *One of the great pleasures of The Cuckoo's Calling, as with most detective stories, is observing the gumshoe's Aha! moments, without being told what they are ... Money and general fabulousness does for The Cuckoo's Calling what magic did for Harry Potter, creating an extravagant, alien, fascinating world for its characters to explore ... The Cuckoo's Calling is fun * Slate Magazine *It's terrific ... A brilliant achievement, mordantly funny and monumentally absorbing ... A masterful novel, the kind of big, noisy, busy, beautiful book in which it is so easy and so pleasurable to become enmeshed * Chicago Tribune *I wasn't disappointed. Whether she's writing about Dementors or detectives, Rowling is a pro * Daily Beast *The private eye novel is not dead. It was merely waiting for Robert Galbraith to give it a firm squeeze, goosing it back to bold, new life. Hardboiled crime fans are going to go cuckoo for this one. I haven't had this much fun with a detective novel in years * Duane Swierczynski, Shamus and Anthony Award-winning author *The novel is the work of a master storyteller * Daily Telegraph *Cracking detective novel * Observer *

I read this book in a weekend. I didn't think I'd have the time to - but Andy Weir's edge-of-the-seat storytelling didn't leave me any choice. -- Richard Madeley, Richard and Judy Book ClubAndy Weir's terrific 'lost in space' novel is an absolute page turner from first to last ... Tautly-written, full of extraordinary and fascinating detail about life in a frozen red desert so far from home, The Martian is one of the best thrillers either of us has read in years. Highly recommended. -- Judy Finnigan, Richard and Judy Book ClubThe best book I've read in ages. Clear your schedule before you crack the seal. This story will take your breath away faster than a hull breech. Smart, funny, and white-knuckle intense, The Martian is everything you want from a novel. -- Hugh Howey * New York Times bestselling author of Wool *Accomplished…believable but suspenseful as [Watney] battles against the odds for survival * The Guardian *like Gravity meets Robinson Crusoe – utterly nail-biting and memorable. -- James Lovegrove * FT *A book I just couldn’t put down!

We’re suckers for well-grounded fiction, and on the technical side, The Martian is exemplary ... witty ... funny * SFX *The Martian kicked my ass! Weir has crafted a relentlessly entertaining and inventive survival thriller, a MacGyver-trapped-on-Mars tale that feels just as real and harrowing as the true story of Apollo 13. -- Ernest Cline * New York Times bestselling author of Ready Player One *Weir’s debut is easily the best SF novel of the year so far * Financial Times *An impressively geeky debut novel ... the technical details keep the story relentlessly precise and the suspense ramped up * Entertainment Weekly *Strong, resilient, and gutsy.

Utterly brilliant. * Bella *One of the best thrillers I’ve read in a long time, an incredible story about an astronaut marooned on Mars. This is no science fiction tale: the technology is beautifully researched and based on what is currently envisioned for a manned flight to Mars. It feels so real it could almost be nonfiction, and yet it has the narrative drive and power of a rocket launch. This is Apollo 13 times ten. I could not put this book down. -- Douglas Preston * #1 New York Times bestselling author of Impact and Blasphemy *Gripping…shapes up like Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe as written by someone brighter. -- Larry Niven, multiple Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author of the Ringworld series and Lucifer’s HammerThe tension simply never lets up, from the first page to the last, and at no point does the believability falter for even a second.
