Second Place RACHEL CUSK

The Republic of False Truths ALAA AL ASWANY

At the mid-point of her life, a woman invites an artist – L – to stay with her and her husband at their home. A figure who has long inspired her, capable of giving form to feelings and thoughts she cannot express, L takes up residence in the couple’s ‘second place’, an outhouse transformed into an artist’s residence. From there, over a long summer, his presence will be transformative to all who cross his path.

General Alwany is a pious man who loves his family. He also tortures and kills enemies of the state. The regime of Hosni Mubarak faces its greatest crisis: the idealistic young have come together to challenge the status quo. As Mubarak is toppled, love blossoms across class divides, but the general and his friends mount a devastating counter-attack.

Exciting Debut Authors for Spring 2021 Temporary HILARY LEICHTER

Boys Don’t Cry FÍONA SCARLETT

Welcome to the world of the Temporary. ‘There is nothing more personal than doing your job’, so goes the motto, as she takes job after job, in search of steadiness, belonging, and something to call her own. Shining shoes. Mopping pirate ship decks. Assisting an assassin… The Temporary can fill in for anyone: the Chairman of the Board, a mother, murderer or ghost.

Joe is 17, a gifted artist and a brilliant older brother Finn. It’s not easy to be a kid on their Dublin housing estate especially when their father is the muscle for a notorious gang leader. Joe is determined not to become like his Da. But when Finn falls ill, Joe finds his convictions harder to cling to. With his father now in prison, and his mother submerged in her grief, Joe must figure out how to survive without becoming what the world around him expects him to be.

When we work, it’s about the masks we wear. But how much can our hearts bear? The Temporary is unendingly sad, confounding and funny yet the smartest, most humane story of what it is to work and live, here and now.

Conflicted IAN LESLIE

Having and Being Had EULA BISS

In this highly connected but increasingly polarized world, where potential conflicts seem to lurk behind every headline, and professional encounter, it’s tempting to seek to coerce, persuade and smooth over our differences. But Ian Leslie argues that in order to avoid mediocre, unproductive groupthink, festering resentments and even outright violence, we need to get better at disagreement.

Having just purchased her first home, Eula Biss embarks on a roguish and risky self-audit of the value system she has bought into. The result is Having and Being Had, a radical interrogation of work, leisure, and capitalism. Playfully ranging from IKEA to Beyoncé to Pokemon, across bars and laundromats and universities, she asks, of both herself and her class, “In what have we invested?”. 07/01/2021 | 9780571346424 £14.99 | Demy HB

Delving into the work of expert communicators, Leslie demonstrates how their techniques can help us learn to disagree better, making work, friendships, marriages and family lives flourish. 18/02/2021 | 9780571346943 £14.99 | Royal TPB

On Violence and On Violence Against Women JACQUELINE ROSE Why has violence, and especially violence against women, become so much more prominent and visible across the world? To demonstrate, Jacqueline Rose explores forms of violence as they spread throughout our social fabric. She ranges across the history of trans rights to the sexual harassment of migrant women, the trial of Oscar Pistorius to domestic violence in lockdown, the work of Roxanne Gay to Sylvia Plath and unveils the crucial idea that violence thrives on a ‘mental blindness’ that we are all party to.

DRAFT COVER

Molly McCully Brown constellates the subjects that define her inside and out: a disabled and conspicuous body, a religious conversion, a missing twin, a life in poetry. As she does, she depicts vividly for us not only her own life but a striking array of sites and topics. Brown offers us the gift of her exquisite sentences, woven together in consideration, always, of what it means to be human: flawed, potent, feeling.

Consciousness is the great unsolved mystery in our scientific understanding of the brain. Somewhere, somehow, inscribed in the brain is everything that makes you you.

Homo Irrealis ANDRÉ ACIMAN In Homo Irrealis André Aciman explores what the present tense means to artists who cannot grasp the here and now. Irrealis is not about the present, or the past, or the future, but about what might have been but never was―but could in theory still happen. From meditations on subway poetry and the temporal resonances of an empty Italian street, to considerations of the lives and work of Freud, Cavafy, W. G. Sebald, Marcel Proust, and Fernando Pessoa, and portraits of cities such as Alexandria and St Petersburg, Homo Irrealis is a deep reflection of the imagination’s power to shape our memories under time’s seemingly intractable hold. 21/01/2021 | 9780571366453 £12.99 | TPB

The Universe Speaks in Numbers GRAHAM FARMELO My Life as a Villainess LAURA LIPPMAN

A ground-breaking exploration of how the interplay of physics and mathematics has enriched our understanding of the universe - moving from the Enlightenment to the breakthroughs of Einstein and Dirac, to the work of contemporary scientists shedding light on each other’s disciplines, Graham Farmelo shows how this relationship has redefined reality as we know it.

Her fiction has always centred on complicated women, paying unique attention to the intricacies of their flaws, their vulnerability, and their empowerment. Now, finally, Lippman has turned her gimlet eye on a new subject: herself. In this, her first collection of essays, Lippman gives us a brilliant, candid portrait of an unapologetically flawed life. Childhood, friendships, influences, becoming a mother in later life – Lippman’s inspiring life stories are at once specific and universal.

Shakespeare in a Divided America JAMES SHAPIRO Shakespeare’s position as England’s national poet is unquestionable. But as James Shapiro illustrates, Shakespeare has long held an essential place in American culture too. Why, though, would a proudly independent republic embrace England’s greatest writer? Especially when his works enact so many of America’s darkest nightmares: interracial marriage, cross-dressing, same-sex love and assassination? Shapiro leads us to fascinating answers and startling stories. 04/02/2021 | 9780571338894 £10.99 | B PB

My Mess is a Bit of a Life GEORGIA PRITCHETT From worrying about the monsters under her bed as a child (Were they comfy enough?), to embracing womanhood, (One way of knowing you have crossed from girlhood to womanhood is that men stop furtively masturbating at you from bushes and start shouting things at you from cars.), Georgia Pritchett’s memoir takes us through a life lived anxiously.

The Double X Economy PROFESSOR LINDA SCOTT Professor Linda Scott describes both the shocking gender inequalities built into the global economy, and the collective power of women that could be harnessed to turn these around and combat humankind’s most pressing social, financial and environmental problems. Provocative, accessible and game-changing, The Double X Economy is at once an expert analysis and an urgent call to action.

Filled with warmth and humour, insight and honesty, it is a brilliant meditation on how to live with worry.

On Connection KAE TEMPEST

Excavate!: The Wonderful and Frightening World of The Fall BOB STANLEY, TESSA NORTON

The increasingly hyper-individualistic, competitive and exploitative society that we live in has caused a global crisis at the turn of the new decade; in order to survive, numbness has pervaded us all.

The definitive book about the world of Mark E. Smith and The Fall, featuring never-before seen essays, artwork and material. Illuminating their reference points, lyrical concerns and influences – from shipping dock procedures to contemporary dance – Excavate cements their worldview as a vital contribution to British culture.

In this urgent and incisive pamphlet, Kae Tempest leads the reckoning against this system, placing our legacy in our own hands. Creativity holds the key: the ability to provide us with internal and external connection, to move us beyond consumption, to allow us to discover authenticity and closeness to all others. .

Bessie Smith JACKIE KAY Bessie Smith – singer, icon, pioneer – was born in Tennessee in 1894. Orphaned by nine, she sang on street corners before becoming a big name in travelling shows. In 1923 she made her first record for a new start-up: Colombia Records. Launched into stardom, Smith’s life was notoriously wayward.

The Eighth STEPHEN JOHNSON

As a young black girl growing up in Glasgow, Jackie Kay found in Bessie someone to idolise and with whom she could identify. In this definitive book Kay mixes biography, fiction, poetry and prose to create an enthralling account of an extraordinary life.

The Eighth Symphony was going to be different from anything Mahler had ever done before: it would speak in different tones, and of a different kind of experience. Stephen Johnson recounts the symphony’s far-reaching effect on composers, conductors and writers of the time. Placing Mahler within his world, The Eighth reassesses Mahler’s work in the context of the prevailing thought of his age, but also against the backdrop of that tumultuous summer, when Mahler worked desperately on his Tenth Symphony, was betrayed by his wife, and consulted Sigmund Freud.
