Happy JUNE publication day This month may be smaller in volume, but it's vast in terms of depth and historical significance. We bring you three brilliant new releases, a work of nonfiction, a novel, and a graphic novel, each one vital and compelling in its own ways. 📘 THE REMEMBERED SOLDIER by Anjet Daanje, translated by David McKay, is an extraordinary love story and a captivating novel about the power of memory and imagination. After serving as a soldier in the Great War, Noon Merckem has lost his memory and lives in a psychiatric asylum. Julienne believes he is her missing husband, the photographer Amand Coppens. But can he be certain that she's telling the truth? 📕 PRIDE AND PREJUDICES by Keio Yoshida (@keioyoshida). The right to life and the right to live life free from discrimination are rights that are codified and legally protected, but there is no binding treaty or convention in international human rights law with respect to LGBTQ+ rights. Human rights lawyer Yoshida analyses pivotal case law from around the world, and uncovers what more needs to be done to protect the lives of LGBTQ+ individuals and communities. 📗 THE BROWNOUT MURDERS by Luke C. Jackson (@lukecjacksonauthor) and Kelly Jackson, illustrated by Maya Graham (@mayagraham_artist) is a gripping noir graphic novel set in 1942 Melbourne. Sisters Beatrice, June and Lizzie are contributing to the homeland war effort while thousands of American GIs are stationed in the city, when a series of grisly murders are committed in the eerie half-light of the brownout. The Brownout Murders tells a story of fear, fortitude, and social change — and how the independence of all women is too often set against the violence of a single man.
