Privileged to review @TheTLS Edith Holler by Edward Carey @GallicBooks Was a huge fan of his novel 'Little' which tells the story of the early life of Madame Tussaud. This new book is just as inventive, engaging, odd & powerful. He is a true original. #litfic #histfic #amreading

[Sophie Goodfellow @sophieglorita]

'...macabre and menacing, ripe with references to fairy tale and folklore... A virtuoso performance'
Brilliant to see #EdithHoller by Edward Carey reviewed in @TheTLS!

"I began reading Québécois writer Éric Chacour’s What I Know About You with no preconceptions, expectations, or knowledge about what I was delving into, and I was blown away." – Madeleine, nb Editor

Our October BOTM is a poetic 'gem of a debut' that has stayed with us long after the final page.

An internationally-bestselling, and multi-award-winning, tale of impossible love and family secrets in late-twentieth century Egypt.

Newly translated into English, What I Know About You is a mesmerising and achingly beautiful debut from Eric Chacour.

As our fantastic October BOTM, our editor Madeleine sat down with Eric to discuss the book, its roots in Egypt, migration and belonging.
