MARCH PUBLICATION DAY

Introducing the March new releases from Scribe — a seductive, Swedish thriller, a gothic tale that tells a Macbeth origin story, the follow-up to Dr Jason Fung's international bestseller, and the collected and annotated lyrics of John Darnielle.⁠

BODY DOUBLE by Hannah Johansson (@www_sauvignon), translated by Kira Josefsson, is a surreal thriller that blurs the lines between lies and truth, between the selves we conceal and the faces we show the world.⁠

‘In the grand tradition of All About Eve and Mulholland Drive and 3 Women, Johansson’s novel is a strange, twisty story about obsession and identity and how easy it can be to lose yourself completely.’⁠
McKayla Coyle, Literary Hub⁠

 HAGTALE by Sally O'Reilly, is a hagtale, a dark fable, a fireside story, known to Shakespeare, but unwritten. Until now.⁠

‘This vivid novel features a wolf child, a crazed warlord and a walking forest, conjuring a world where nature is alive and wild, and human nature is cruel and deadly. Giving new life to the old fireside yarn that inspired Shakespeare’s Macbeth.'⁠
Eithne Farry, The Irish Daily Mail⁠

 THE HUNGER CODE by Dr. Jason Fung (@drjasonfung), is the follow-up to the multi-million-copy bestseller The Obesity Code. ⁠

‘Dr Jason Fung cuts through diet dogma with clear science and calm conviction, showing that hunger isn’t a failure of discipline — it’s a matter of hormones. This is metabolic truth-telling at its finest.’⁠
Benjamin Bikman, PhD, author of Why We Get Sick⁠

THIS YEAR by John Darnielle of (@mountaingoatsmusic), is the collected and annotated lyrics from one of music’s most visionary bards, John Darnielle. ⁠

‘An illuminated manuscript. These songs, released from their recordings, stand even more vividly as stories: self-contained, richly coloured, extending their private inks into the wider world.’⁠
Patricia Lockwood, author of Will There Ever Be Another You⁠
