MAY PUBLICATION DAY This May, we bring you an enriching mix of internationally acclaimed, translated fiction, and meticulously crafted nonfiction from local authors. A book on the psychology of relationships by forensic psychologist Ahona Guha, an extraordinary work of true crime by Patrick Mullins, the International Booker Prize-shortlisted novel Taiwan Travelogue, a wildly surreal work of French fiction, and a deep exploration into the animal kingdom's parenting styles. HOW WE RELATE by Dr Ahona Guha (@drahonaguha) Whether you’re struggling with difficult family members, navigating workplace politics, or seeking deeper intimacy in love, this book provides the psychological tools to understand yourself and transform your relationships. THE STAINED MAN by Patrick Mullins (@pjfmullins) ‘Patrick Mullins tells a stunning tale of attempted murder, secrets, politics, and lies. In this extraordinary story we can read the tea leaves of the century to come: the strong forces at work in scandal, the volatile power of celebrity, and the immense damage that reckless ambition can do.’ Sean Kelly TAIWAN TRAVELOGUE by Shuāng-zǐ Yáng (@roseyanger), translated by Lin King (@linkinglionking) Disguised as a translation of a rediscovered text by a Japanese writer, this novel was a sensation on its first publication in Mandarin Chinese in 2020. Taiwan Travelogue unburies lost colonial histories and deftly reveals how power dynamics inflect our most intimate relationships. SELF-WORTH by Emma Tholozan (@emmoulie), translated by Emma Ramadan (@emkateram) One day Anna's boyfriend Lulu starts throwing up cash — thousands of euros in just a few days. As Anna grows accustomed to a life of luxury, Lulu’s health suffers, and she wonders: what would be worse, losing him or losing the money? THE CREATURES' GUIDE TO CARING by Elizabeth Preston (@by.elizabeth.preston) ‘Elizabeth Preston’s writing shimmers with wit, charisma, and infectious delight, as she shows how the act of caretaking connects us to the rest of the animal kingdom.’ If you’d like to go in the running to win one of our May books Leave a comment telling us which book you'd like and explain why Share this post on your story. |
