This September, we’re excited to share two bold fiction debuts and three fascinating nonfiction titles: a woman forging her identity outside of marriage, fearless women in the shadowy echelons of Mexico, a thrilling investigation into the most dangerous arms dealer, critical insights into the nature of global inequality, and a grown-up conversation about how adults treat children.
📓 DIVING, FALLING by Kylie Mirmohamadi is a wickedly wry and exhilarating Australian debut novel exploring a woman’s life beginning after her husband’s death. It examines grief and betrayal, female autonomy, and ultimately joy in a reckoning of personal identity.
📘 RESERVOIR BITCHES by Dahlia de la Cerda (translated by Julia Sanches and Heather Cleary) is a linked collection of gritty, streetwise, and darkly funny fiction. Each story delves into the harsh realities of thirteen women as they fight, sew, skirt, cheat, cry, and lie their way through life.
📕 THE CHINESE PHANTOM by Christoph Giesen, Philipp Grüll, Frederik Obermaier and Bastian Obermayer (translated by Simon Pare) charts the thrilling investigation spanning decades to track down the world’s most dangerous arms dealer. In doing so, the authors discover the reality of modern warfare and international espionage.
📒 NATURE, CULTURE, AND INEQUALITY by Thomas Piketty (translated by Willard Wood) is the latest work from the famous economist, scrutinising the nature of inequality in society: how it manifests and how to solve it.
📓 IT’S NOT FAIR by Eloise Rickman is a thorough, thought-provoking, and passionately argued call to stop viewing children as less than adults and start fighting for their rights to be taken seriously.
