Demon Copperhead Bok
<p>Demon Copperhead is a once-in-a-generation novel that breaks and mends your heart in the way only the best fiction can. Demon's story begins with his traumatic birth to a single mother in a single-wide trailer, looking 'like a little blue prizefighter.' For the life ahead of him he would need all of that fighting spirit, along with buckets of charm, a quick wit, and some unexpected talents, legal and otherwise. In the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia, poverty isn't an idea, it's as natural as the grass grows. For a generation growing up in this world, at the heart of the modern opioid crisis, addiction isn't an abstraction, it's neighbours, parents, and friends. 'Family' could mean love, or reluctant foster care. For Demon, born on the wrong side of luck, the affection and safety he craves is as remote as the ocean he dreams of seeing one day. The wonder is in how far he's willing to travel to try and get there. Suffused with truth, anger and compassion, Demon Copperhead is an epic tale of love, loss and everything in between.</p>

The Last Chairlift Bok
<p>John Irving, one of the world's greatest novelists, returns with his first novel in seven years - a ghost story, a love story, and a lifetime of sexual politics. In Aspen, Colorado, in 1941, Rachel Brewster is a slalom skier at the National Downhill and Slalom Championships. Little Ray, as she is called, finishes nowhere near the podium, but she manages to get pregnant. Back home, in New England, Little Ray becomes a ski instructor. Her son, Adam, grows up in a family that defies conventions and evades questions concerning the eventful past. Years later, looking for answers, Adam will go to Aspen. In the Hotel Jerome, where he was conceived, Adam will meet some ghosts; in The Last Chairlift, they aren't the first or the last ghosts he sees. John Irving has written some of the most acclaimed books of our time - among them, The World According to Garp and The Cider House Rules. A visionary voice on the subject of sexual tolerance, Irving is a bard of alternative families. In The Last Chairlift, readers will once more be in his thrall.</p>

Practically, the plan makes sense, but coming back each Sunday to a home where Finn has been feels far too much like living with a ghost. Soon Kate finds herself adrift in her own subconscious, trapped in the liminal space between loving someone and letting go.</p>

The Shards Bok
<p><strong>The<em> Sunday Times </em>Bestseller</strong></p> <p><strong>'A full-spectrum triumph' <em>Guardian</em></strong></p> <p><strong>A sensational new novel from the bestselling author of <em>Less Than Zero</em> and <em>American Psycho</em> that tracks a group of privileged Los Angeles high school friends as a serial killer strikes across the city. His first novel in 13 years, <em>The Shards</em> is Bret Easton Ellis at his inimitable best.</strong></p> <p><strong>LA, 1981. Buckley College in heat. </strong>17-year-old Bret is a senior at the exclusive Buckley prep school when a new student arrives with a mysterious past. Robert Mallory is bright, handsome, charismatic, and shielding a secret from Bret and his friends, even as he becomes a part of their tightly knit circle. Bret's obsession with Mallory is equalled only by his increasingly unsettling preoccupation with The Trawler, a serial killer on the loose who seems to be drawing ever closer to Bret and his friends, taunting them with grotesque threats and horrific, sharply local acts of violence.</p> <p>Can he trust his friends - or his own mind - to make sense of the danger they appear to be in? Thwarted by the world and by his own innate desires, buffeted by unhealthy fixations, Bret spirals into paranoia and isolation as the relationship between The Trawler and Robert Mallory hurtles inexorably toward a collision.</p> <p>Gripping, sly, suspenseful, deeply haunting and often darkly funny, <em>The Shards</em> is a mesmerizing fusing of fact and fiction that brilliantly explores the emotional fabric of Bret's life at 17 - sex and jealousy, obsession and murderous rage.</p>

The Twilight World Bok
<p><b>THE FIRST NOVEL FROM LEGENDARY FILMMAKER WERNER HERZOG<br/><br/>'Very cinematic: indeed, it feels like a film unspooling inside Herzog's head as you read' <i>Daily Telegraph</i></b><br/><br/>1944: Lubang Island, the Philippines. With Japanese troops about to withdraw, Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda was given orders by his superior officer: <i>Hold the island until the Imperial army's return. You are to defend its territory by guerrilla tactics, at all costs</i>.<br/><br/>So began Onoda's long campaign. Soon weeks turned into months, months into years, and years into decades - until eventually time itself seemed to melt away. All the while Onoda continued to fight his fictitious war, at once surreal and tragic, at first with other soldiers, and then, finally, alone, a character in a novel of his own making. . .<br/><br/><b>'Herzog. . .brilliantly blends fact and fiction in this fever dream of a novel' <i>Daily Mail</i></b><br/><br/><b>'A literary jewel set to sparkle against the backdrop of his monumental career in cinema' <i>i </i></b></p>
