Hogarth Press HagSeed
Book SynopsisNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The beloved author of The Handmaid’s Tale reimagines Shakespeare’s final, great play, The Tempest, in a gripping and emotionally rich novel of passion and revenge. “A marvel of gorgeous yet economical prose, in the service of a story that’s utterly heartbreaking yet pierced by humor, with a plot that retains considerable subtlety even as the original’s back story falls neatly into place.”—The New York Times Book Review Felix is at the top of his game as artistic director of the Makeshiweg Theatre Festival. Now he’s staging aTempest like no other: not only will it boost his reputation, but it will also heal emotional wounds. Or that was the plan. Instead, after an act of unforeseen treachery, Felix is living in exile in a backwoods hovel, haunted by memories of his beloved lost daughter, Miranda. And also brewing revenge, which, after twelve years, arrives in the shape of a theatre course at a nearby prison. Margaret Atwood’s novel take on Shakespeare’s play of enchantment, retribution, and second chances leads us on an interactive, illusion-ridden journey filled with new surprises and wonders of its own. Praise for Hag-Seed “What makes the book thrilling, and hugely pleasurable, is how closely Atwood hews to Shakespeare even as she casts her own potent charms, rap-composition included. . . . Part Shakespeare, part Atwood, Hag-Seed is a most delicate monster—and that’s ‘delicate’ in the 17th-century sense. It’s delightful.”—Boston Globe “Atwood has designed an ingenious doubling of the plot of The Tempest: Felix, the usurped director, finds himself cast by circumstances as a real-life version of Prospero, the usurped Duke. If you know the play well, these echoes grow stronger when Felix decides to exact his revenge by conjuring up a new version of The Tempest designed to overwhelm his enemies.”—Washington Post “A funny and heartwarming tale of revenge and redemption . . . Hag-Seed is a remarkable contribution to the canon.”—Bustle

New Directions Publishing Corporation Binsteads Safari
Book SynopsisAnother glorious tale of female empowerment from the author of Mrs. CalibanTrade Review"Ingalls anchors her soaring premise with heavily controlled, modest prose...a domestic thriller." -- Jordan Larson - Bookforum"Outstanding." -- Michele Leber - Booklist (starred)"Perfect, original and arresting. Ingalls’s narrative is a miracle of economy and grace: tender, exquisite, and tragic." -- Christine Smallwood - Harper's"A feminist, fabulist, magical realist romance set in London and Africa... Another witty, elegant story from a writer whose atavistic vision of romantic love is resonant and deeply satisfying. Escaping the overblown egos and endless self-indulgence of the males of their own species, Ingalls' women find their true soul mates elsewhere. " -- Kirkus (starred)"Binstead's Safari is a page-turner, a romance, a comedy, a tragedy, a domestic novel and a fish-out-of-water tale, with a bit of magical realism thrown in. It’s amazing and original, and it’s great to see it back in print." -- Star Tribune"Ingalls writes fables whose unadorned sentences belie their irreducible strangeness...In her grim yet playful fashion, Ingalls is concerned with the rules and conventions by which societies are organized, the violent machinations by which they are maintained. Like a good tragedian, she tends to heap up corpses at the end of her tales, and even in her quieter examinations of familial bonds she leaves readers to wonder, of her spouses and siblings, who might push whom off a cliff. " -- Lidija Haas - The New Yorker"A slim, surrealist masterpiece." -- Justin Taylor - Los Angeles Times"By marrying domestic realism with the literature of the bizarre, Ingalls brings tenderness to the monstrous and renders the recognizable utterly weird. Unabashedly campy and deadly serious, she dares the reader to admit that these aims are not at all at odds." -- Literary Hub"Ingalls knew something about the power of being seen. … The self-actualization of [her] heroines … is more than entertaining; it’s erotic." -- Jessica Ferri - Los Angeles Times

The forthcoming collection Some Trick by Helen DeWitt, is probably the most recent example." -- Sloane Crosley - New York Times Book Review"A gem: one of fiction’s greatest minds—dazzling." -- Publishers Weekly"One definition of a genius is that she is so dissatisfied with the way the world is that she compels it to adjust to her, rather than following the usual course of adjusting to it.

Book SynopsisFinally back in print, a remarkable, hilarious coming-of-age novel from the cult classic writer Rosemary Tonks. Trade Review"For Tonks, love is its own thing, separate from both sex and its inverse, marriage, a dreaded vulnerability that could strike at any moment if one enjoys life a little too much." -- Audrey Wollen - The New Yorker"Writing like this—a bit of Rhys, a bit of Knut Hamsun, a bit of Wyndham Lewis, a bit of Muriel Spark, overlaying the everlasting Shakespeare/Austen/Brontë/ George Eliot marriage drama—is far too beautiful and accomplished to be kept off the shelf. It catches like nothing else the smogs, the rodentine genes, the murky post-War grays, the lurking sexual violence of London, between Hangover Square and Carnaby Street." -- Michael Hofmann - Poetry Magazine"Nobody writes about angsty women like Tonks." -- Daniella Fishman - The Millions"A clever, fishy little novel...all voice, half poetry and half snarl. " -- Mary Marge Locker - The New York Times"This is an exaggeratedly domestic novel, whose action unfolds in rooms gorged with furniture and objects, all brimming with meaning. Sophie knows how her mother is feeling based on the pitch of her iron’s hiss; clocks are always ticking or being wound when Philip is near or on the mind—he himself “had a clock buried in his flesh.” These objects, furnishings, and many, many articles of clothing are described with tender care and in vivid color." -- Ania Szremski - 4Columns""If Tonks’s literary career was on its deathbed when she wrote The Halt, her style was still brilliantly alive…The liquidity of Tonks’s sentences, the deftness of her humor, makes it hard to understand how writing became such a source of torment for her. Tonks left us with this odd child, this Frankensteined novel—a trembling, emotional, sensitive bildungsroman stitched inside a flashy comic-novel facade."" -- Leo Lasdun - Los Angeles Review of Books"Graceful prose, a devastatingly good ear for dialogue, a marvelous way with supporting characters—Sophie's mother, Philip's father, and their wise friend Pussy are carefully etched gems—and a sensibility which probes beneath her surface wit make Ms. Tonks a writer to conjure with." -- Publishers Weekly
