EDITOR’S LETTER Time flies, doesn’t it? Especially in the book world. One moment you’ve got your nose in a paperback in July, and the next you look up and it’s time to get ready for December. Which is right about where we are now – getting ready to close the door on 2018 and open a new year in publishing. So without further ado…

In fiction this month, we have renowned author Nuruddin Farah’s North of Dawn (p4, Riverhead, 9780735214231, h/b, £19.99). The novel tells the story of a migrant couple settled in Oslo, whose peacefully assimilated lives are turned upside down when their beloved son dies enacting jihad in Somalia. By all accounts a bold work, ‘North of Dawn’ is a provocative

story about love, loyalty, and the legacy of violence. Also in fiction, queer cult favourite The Beatrix Gates (p5, PM Press, 9781629635781, p/b, £10.99) blends sci-f, myth and memoir in a totally unique literary odyssey that explores themes of transformation and spirituality.

Moving on to YA, we have New York Times’ best-selling author Rachel Cohn’s new novel My Almost Flawless Tokyo Dream Life (p20, Disney-Hyperion, 9781368008396, h/b, £14.99). When foster kid Elle Zoellner’s longlost father turns out to be a Japanese Hotel mogul who wants her back, things start looking up for her in a big way. But Elle has a major culture shock in store thanks to her new uber-rich peer group and her enigmatic birth family, and the life she could previously only dream of might not be all it’s cracked up to be. Elsewhere, This is Not a Love Letter (p20, Disney-Hyperion, 9781484799871, p/b, £8.99) is an intimate portrayal of love, privilege, and racism, as protagonist Jessie desperately tries to resolve the disappearance of her boyfriend Chris – one of the few black residents in their largely white mill town.

Finally, we have a strong showing for non-fiction in December. Melville House’s popular The Last Interview series continues with Kathy Acker: The Last Interview (p22, Melville House, 9781612197319, p/b, £12.99).

It’s easy to see why Kathy Acker was an oft-mythologised interviewee, with this collection presenting her at her entertaining, engaging best.

Over in crime, Kem Nunn returns to the California surfing setting of his acclaimed first novel Tapping the Source (Delacorte, 1984) in The Dogs of Winter (p4, No Exit Press, 9780857302533, p/b, £9.99). For down and out photographer Jack Fletcher, the chance to shoot the 30-ft waves that break at Heart Attacks – in the company of surfing legend Drew Harmon, no less – carries hope

for a fresh start. But Drew’s wife Kendra is obsessed with the unsolved murder of a local girl, and her hunt for the truth could drown them all. Meanwhile, One Law for the Rest of Us (p4, No Exit Press, 9780857301406, p/b, £8.99) sees barrister Ben Schroeder going after the rich and powerful once again; this time over a culture of child sexual abuse at a highly-regarded religious boarding school.

In graphic novels, Sabrina the Teenage Witch takes a dark turn in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Vol. 2 (p7, Archie Comics, 9781627388030, p/b £16.99).

This is a much more macabre take on the Teenage Witch, and one that will appeal to both comic book horror fans, and fans

Meanwhile, Tom Stephens and Keith Elliot Greenberg’s Best Seat in the House (p22, ECW Press, 9781770414518, p/b, £13.99) gives backstage access to the Jeff Healey Band’s most raucous years at the top. Then, the subversive manual Advertising Shits in Your Head (p24, PM Press, 9781629635743, p/b, £12.99) highlights the many ways activists are striking back at corporations to beat them at their own propaganda game.

Phew. All that and more this December!

BEING, THE

Hirszfeld, Aleksandra & Nowicka, Agata

Fed up with the continuous objectification of females in popular culture, we decided to do it our way. We chose the comic book as the medium for our message and invited a bunch of talented visual artists to collaborate with us and expand the breadth of stories and perspectives. Our goal is to embrace femininity in all shapes, sizes and ages and deal with the various myths, stereotypes and taboos surrounding female sexuality. Isn’t it strange that so many decades have passed since the sexual revolution, yet our conservative society still needs an open discussion about women’s right to explore and express their sexuality without being shamed or harassed?

KEY SELLING POINTS • A current and topical graphic novel about embracing female sexuality, and the rights of women.

• Although The Being has been created entirely by women, it is meant to be perused and enjoyed by anyone.

• For those interested in bold, vibrant art, the empowerment of women, and standing up for what you believe in.

• Perfect for feminists, activists, and those who appreciate powerful art.

Sullivan aims to dispel the oversimplification of our perceptions of Rastafari, as well as other cultures, in the age of the Internet, where the loudest voices are often the most extreme and divisive.

WHAT THE QUR’AN MEANT And why it matters Wills, Garry

We are constantly fed false information about Islam - but what does the Qur’an actually say?

There are also parallel difficulties of interpretation, which call for patient exploration, and which offer some thrills of discovery.

AUSTRALIA IN ARMS The Story of Gallipoli Schuler, Philip

Published soon after the evacuation from Gallipoli, Australia in Arms is a vital early account of the Dardanelles campaign. The young journalist Philip Schuler, later killed in battle, witnessed ‘the whole of the August offensive from... trenches at Lone Pine.’ He saw the valour of the Anzacs, and recognised too the strength of their Turkish opponents. Vivid and incisive, his book is one of the great achievements of Australian military writing.

KEY SELLING POINTS • 2018 marks the hundreth anniversary of the end of WWI. • Originally published in 1916 - the first full-length account of Australia’s role in the Dardanelles campaign.

• Schuler was a junior reporter at the Age, where his father was the editor. He died shortly after the book was published.

• Captures both heroism and the horror of Australians at war, and became crucial in shaping the Anzac legend.

• A crucial work which has only briefly been in print over the past century.

Hippolyte Havel was a Czech anarchist who lived most of his life in New York City. He wrote dozens of articles and was a major infuence on many artists and radicals. Leading figure in pre-WWI American anarchism, originator of Greenwich Village bohemianism, companion of Emma Goldman, and inspiration to artists and intellectuals, Hippolyte Havel was widely read in his day. He is known in fragments as someone who appears in the biographies of others, but little has been written about Havel himself, and his work has never been collected before. Havel’s writing provides a valuable window onto the culture of his time.

KEY SELLING POINTS • The first ever collection of Havel’s work.

• Provides insight into the political underpinnings of much of artistic modernity.

• Will appeal to readers of art history, politics, and early twentieth-century American history.

• Includes not only Havel’s own biography, but his impressions of many of his important contemporaries.

The Real History of the Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy Pease, Lisa & DiEugenio, James

ORGANIZATION AFTER SOCIAL MEDIA Lovink, Geert & Rossiter, Ned

Organised networks are an alternative to the social media logic of weak links and their secretive economy of data mining. They put an end to freestyle friends, seeking forms of empowerment beyond the brief moment of joyful networking. This speculative manual calls for nothing less than social technologies based on enduring time. Analysing contemporary practices of organisation through networks as new institutional forms, organised networks provide an alternative to political parties, trade unions, NGOs, and traditional social movements.

KEY SELLING POINTS • Strong course adoption potential.

• Explores a range of social settings from arts and design, cultural politics, visual culture and creative industries.

• Devises strategies of commitment to help claw ourselves out of the toxic morass of platform suffocation.

• Geert Lovink is a media activist and theorist, internet critic and author.

CASE AGAINST FRAGRANCE, THE Grenville, Kate

Kate Grenville had always associated perfume with elegance and beauty. Then the headaches started. Like perhaps a quarter of the population, Grenville reacts badly to the artificial fragrances around us: other people’s perfumes, and all those scented cosmetics, cleaning products and air fresheners. On a book tour in 2015, dogged by ill health, she started wondering: what’s in fragrance? Who tests it for safety? What does it do to people? The more Grenville investigated, the more she felt this was a story that should be told.

KEY SELLING POINTS • Like as much as one third of the population, Kate Grenville suffers headaches when exposed to scent.

• Unable to find a book on the science of fragrance she decided she had to write it herself!

• Carefully researched and argued, this book will make you see (and smell) the world differently.

• This timely book has the power to change behaviour and to improve the lives of many people.

• Grenville asks what chemicals are in those pretty bottles and products in our homes, and what are they doing to us?

SLASH & BURN Abusdal, Terje

Finnskogen - directly translated as The Forest of the Finns - is a large, contiguous forest belt along the NorwegianSwedish border, where farming families from Finland settled in the early 1600s.
