After 25 years away, Mateo Silva has returned to sell his childhood home so he can send his longtime girlfriend—whom he now realizes he may have never loved—on a trip to the Acropolis before her cancer kills her. Mateo sells the home to the first bidder: his wealthy neighbor from childhood, whose wife Graça enchanted Mateo as a young man. It was Graça’s beauty, paired with his father’s unfaithfulness, that broke up his family. But the woman he sees now bears little resemblance to the one he remembers, and you can’t move forward by revisiting the past.
In searing prose, keenly translated by Margaret Jull Costa, the Portuguese master Maria Judite de Carvalho’s narrator is at a crossroads, but too paralyzed to change direction in the life that he no longer seems to control. Paperback
“There is no doubting the authenticity of Carvalho’s vision and the originality and severity of her voice.”
—Joyce Carol Oates, The New York Review of Books
MARIA JUDITE DE CARVALHO (1921–1998) is widely considered one of Portugal’s most important writers of the second half of the twentieth century. Born and educated in Lisbon, with a secondary education in France, Carvalho’s work spans painting, journalism, and fiction, with a specialization in the short-story and novella forms. A writer of great concision with an eye on modernization, the changing politics of Portugal, and the effect of contemporary life on everyday people, especially women, Carvalho published widely and to great critical acclaim in her time.
MARGARET JULL COSTA has been a literary translator for nearly thirty years and has translated works by novelists such as José Maria de Eça de Queiroz, José Saramago, Fernando Pessoa, and Javier Marías, as well as the poetry of Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen and Ana Luísa Amaral. She has won various prizes, most recently the 2015 Marsh Award for Children’s Literature in Translation for Bernardo Atxaga’s The Adventures of Shola.

Introduction by Aria Aber
Five female Afghan poets wield language to combat the loneliness, absurdity, and claustrophobia of life in a war-torn country and its diaspora. There are long hypnotic beards tangled with mass extinctions; hateful men burning grapevines; black blindfolds; jinn in chadors; and condoms advertised every eight minutes on TV. Interspersing these are tender moments: one poet describes brushing her daughter’s hair, while another imagines a tree growing at the center of a room, undisturbed by the bombs outside. In the wake of the Taliban’s escalating war on Afghan women’s rights, Hair on Fire is a blazing tribute to a group of exceptional poetesses and a reminder of what we lose when voices are silenced.
“Examine[s] and question the very task of poetry: to reanimate language against imperial projects of effacement.”

A book on what happens when the delicate balance of nature tips in favor of the sea. The catastrophe that everyone knew was coming has arrived—the dykes are breached, the tideline rises a kilometer a day, and the citizens of the Netherlands are forced into gyms and shelters in Germany and Belgium. The foxes and rabbits head inland across the dunes. The politicians make empty speeches and fret the optics. The Hague—“the center of peace and justice”—slips beneath the rising water. Online retailers do flash sale promotions on disaster kits. There is violence and looting, but some people are too tired to start over again and walk into the rising tide.
Not willing to simply move on, three women get into a small boat and ride back out over the flooded cities, looking for loved ones they know are likely drowned. On the way, they witness a world retaken by seabirds, whales, and kelp forests. The sea has spoken, and there’s nothing left to be done but listen.

Translated from Spanish by Christina MacSweeney
In what was at first meant to be a short essay about the influential Mexican writer Elena Garro (1916–1988), Jazmina Barrera’s deep curiosity and exploration give us a singular portrait of a complex life. Sifting through the writer’s archives at Princeton, Barrera is repeatedly thwarted in her attempt to fully know her subject. Who was Elena Garro, really?
She was a writer, a founder of magical realism, a dancer. A devotee to the tarot and the I Ching. A socialite and activist on behalf of indigenous Mexicans. She was a mother and a lover who repeatedly shook off (and cheated on) her manipulative husband, Nobel-laureate Octavio Paz. And above all, she wrote with simmering anger and glittering imagination.
The Queen of Swords is a portrait of a woman that also serves as an alternative history of Mexico City; a cry for justice; and an homage to the unknowable. It transcends mere biography, supplanting something tidy and authoritative for a sprawling experiment in understanding.
“To whoever reads this very precious book, I assure you that you are going to get attached to both of them.”
—Margarita García Robayo

Translated from Spanish by Megan McDowell Introduction by Álvaro Enrigue
Short stories from the “cursed mother of magical realism” (El Mundo), now in English for the first time.
A woman flits between two realities centuries apart, as scenes from the violent conquest of Mexico bleed their way into her comfortable contemporary life. Two little girls visit the home of a sorcerer who tortures women named after the days of the week. Girls become dogs, a laborer hides human bones in bricks he’ll use to build a new development, and an old woman appears at an acquaintance’s door one night with a knife and a bone-chilling confession.
With The Week of Colors, Elena Garro laid the groundwork for the literary movements that would shape the landscape of Latin American fiction and beyond. Here you’ll find the early roots of magical realism, feminist horror, and anticolonial speculative fiction. In The Week of Colors, Garro highlights the violence in our history, our homes, and our hearts, in vivid color.
“Elena Garro is the Tolstoy of Mexico.”
—Jorge Luis Borges
“Books with a basement vault, or a fracture, or both. Nothing is what it seems with Garro; or else everything is something else.”

From the author of Rabbit Island, longlisted for the National Book Award, a thrilling fiction about the internet and the difficulty of knowing others.
Adriana has become obsessed with her father’s online dating. Recently widowed, he’s on a self-destructive, manic search for a partner to accompany him through his twilight years. At the same time, Adriana’s life as an isolated grad student feels unreal, and to fill the void of her mother’s death, she begins writing, trying on different voices. She builds worlds from the online profiles of her father’s latest flings, that is until more fundamental voices—those of her grandmother and mother—begin calling out to her in the night. The Voices of Adriana, the latest from Spanish writer Elvira Navarro, is an innovative novel about grief and how we might reanimate the voices of those we’ve lost, not as ghosts, but as living parts of ourselves. Paperback
“Navarro’s novel can be seen as reclaiming a woman’s right to interrogate her own mind.”

Composing a fuller picture of the literary era that produced Osamu Dazai and Kobo Abe, Unusual Fragments foregrounds stories of alienation with surprising humor and imagination.
A young storm-chaser welcomes a jaded woman into the eye of a storm. The last man of a peculiar family, implausibly tiny in stature, attends a Mozart opera with his dedicated wife. A medical student coolly observes an adolescent boy as he contorts his body into violent positions. With tension and wit, the writers of Unusual Fragments, among them Nobuko Takagi, Yoshida Tomoko, and Inagaki Taruho, trace their taboo, feminist, bizarre themes to complicate what we think of as 20th-century Japanese literature. What’s hiding just beneath the fiction of our perfectly ordered, happy lives? Something unusual. Something far more interesting.
“Wonderful and provocative. For fans of contemporary Japanese fiction, it’s a must-read.”
—Publisher’s Weekly, starred review

In a failing city, a government program incentivizes couples to “conjoin”—surgically attach themselves to one another— promising a flourishing economy, ecological revitalization, and personal fulfillment.
A student writing her dissertation on the program’s history begins to suffer from insomnia. As her world unravels and under the weight of expectations by both society and her close friends, she worries that maybe they are all right when they tell her it would be better—for the good of another person and for the good of the country—to sacrifice everything that she is and get conjoined. Mending Bodies blends body horror and political allegory to explore a world where even the motives of those you love most are shaped by larger forces.
“An unsettling fable about an extreme form of cohabitation.…is eerily transfixing.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Conjoinment may seem like an abstract act, but it is emblematic of the unquestioned beliefs that have indoctrinated our lives.”
—China Times

After seven years in prison, Warif is released to a changed Cairo. Freedom so far has been endless, inscrutable meetings with official-looking strangers, trying to get his job as a translator back. This new Cairo, busy with expats and bureaucrats, is proving disorienting: What is he supposed to make of these self-assured newcomers who are so certain of his obsolescence, his subjugation, his solitude? They seem happy to provide him with a salary, if he’s willing to give up the work that gave his life meaning. As his encounters more and more resemble interrogations and the futility of trying to escape the system set against him threatens to suffocate him, Warif escapes into the vivid colors of the city, looking deeper and deeper into the food, the people, the buildings, and the flowers, until what’s real blurs into fantasy.
“After the violent Egyptian dystopias that were so trendy in the last two decades, Kheir’s take on Egyptian futurism is more dream than nightmare, but still disarmingly critical.”

A teenaged Pirkko Saisio can’t decide what she hates most: God, her father, or her growing breasts. When she’s not escaping into her books, she’s waging minor wars against her friends and family. One day her charismatic teacher suggests she might have what it takes to be a real writer, but first she’ll have to remake herself—a prospect that delights and terrifies her.
Years later, during the historic summer of ’68, protests rage across Europe. Meanwhile, Pirkko is working at a Swiss orphanage, inspired by Julie Andrews’s character in The Sound of Music, and wondering about the choices she’d made.
In Backlight, the iconic, queer, multidisciplinary artist transforms her recollections into a delightfully uncategorizable piece of writing, a frenetic portrait of a life lived in language.
