On losing her father, Teresa returns to a small town on the Greek coast – the same place she visited when grieving her mother nine years ago. She immerses herself again in the life of the town, observing the inhabitants going about their business, a quiet backdrop for her reckoning with herself. An episode from her first visit resurfaces vividly – her encounter with John, a man struggling to come to terms with the violent death of his nephew. Soon Teresa encounters some of the people she met last time Petros, an eccentric mechanic, whose life story may or may not be part of John's; the beautiful Niko, a diving instructor; and Xanthe, a waitress in one of the cafés on the leafy town square. They talk about their longings, regrets, the passing of time, their sense of who they are. Artfully constructed, absorbing and insightful, One Boat is a brilliant novel grappling with questions of identity, free will, guilt and responsibility.

The co-winner of the 2022 Novel Prize, Tell is a probing, exuberant and complex examination of the ways in which we make stories of our lives and of other people's.

David's introspective journey begins after a solitary New Year's Eve, ignited by memories of his former lover, Imogen. As a curator at the quirky Sanderson-Perceval Museum, he finds beauty in the unconventional and forgotten. His journal, a tapestry of thoughts and reflections, defies linear storytelling, weaving together past relationships, musings on female saints, and the history of medicine. This narrative captures the essence of a man grappling with loss, nostalgia, and the allure of the nonutilitarian in a richly textured exploration of life.

A deeply resonant novel about mortality and love.

Naomi arrive chez sa sœur Kate avec l’intention de lui dire au revoir. Un au revoir aux curieux accents d’adieu.

À travers une série d’histoires et les méandres tortueux de la mémoire, Naomi révèle peu à peu l’insaisissable Bernát, imposteur ou génie. Entre illusions et réalité, plusieurs strates de récits se jettent dans le fleuve des jours et mènent à une fin obsédante et mystérieuse.
