We are delighted to announce the following upcoming launches:
Coming Soon
The Palestinian mash-up of BRIDESHEAD REVISITED and ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF SOLITUDE.
Faysal receives a mysterious letter about the death of an aunt he can’t remember. Leaving his lover and his life in Europe behind, he returns to the village of his birth in Palestine and to his family’s extraordinary, deserted house, the palace on the higher hill. With a backdrop of violence and the permanent threat from settlers, Faysal wanders the once-lavish rooms as characters from the past return to shed light on his family story and on the story of his people.
In beautiful, angry prose, Karim Kattan introduces us to an intimate Palestine of the imagination where dreams and nightmares are in constant conflict.

Mediterranean millennial: a non-fiction portrait of being young in twenty-first century Southern Europe
In this tour de force of auto-journalism, Anna Pazos explores the end of youth and the beginning of adulthood for the global nomad generation. We are taken on a journey from the ‘Mediterranean mediocrity’ of bourgeois Barcelona life, through Anna’s unstructured Erasmus days in Thessaloniki, her first steps in journalism in Jerusalem, her sail across the Atlantic with an unsuitable lover, and to post-MeToo, pre-pandemic New York. In 2021, back in Barcelona, she turns her analytical attention on her family, on post-2017 Catalan society, and on her place within it.
Coming September 2025
Parisians behaving badly: one night in the Sixth gets the Elizabeth Day treatment
In tired, hot Paris at the end of August, a group of friends, who’d rather still be at the sea, meet for a dinner in one couple’s apartment.
Taking us behind the shutters of the Sixth Arrondissement, with a cast of characters that both delight and repel, fractured relationships, manipulation, bad behaviour and desperation are all laid bare in this very contemporary take on a Parisian huis clos story.
What starts as just a little dinner ends up having monumental consequences for everyone.
Coming June 2025
The secrets and silences of women’s lives in a Roman seaside town
In Scauri, an end of the line seaside town forty miles or so from Rome, Vittoria dies unexpectedly in her bath. Whilst the townsfolk meet the event with sad but respectful southern Italian silence, Lea, the town lawyer, wants to investigate. Who was Vittoria, what were her secrets, why had she mysteriously arrived in Scauri thirty years earlier? And was her relationship with Lea all that it seemed?
In this unforgettable portrait of a small town and the women who live there, reverberations from the past catch up with present. Through the silences, Vittoria’s story is revealed and everything - passions, emotions, and relationships - changes forever.
