  • Principles, betrayal and resistance in the mountains of France

    “I’ve always enjoyed my visits to Brussels, although I can never get the topography straight in my head. Perhaps it’s because I’ve stayed in different hotels and districts; maybe it’s because of the changes in elevation, with unexpected hills leading one up, down and around intriguing corners . . .”

‘In the span of a mere 160 pages, this extraordinary debut packs rare insight into the trauma and deference seeded by the long reign of capitalism and the white man’s whims.’ Yesterday we announced urgent new non-fiction from Eliane Brum. Today we release the first photographs of our advance reader copies, featuring artwork by Luke Bird and a cover photograph by Lilo Clareto.

Have you ever felt like you’re living in between two places? Like you don’t quite fit in? In a time of war, what is the shape of love? Author Priya Hein holding proofs of her beautiful new novel Riambel. What a photograph! “Her immediate concern was money. It was a Friday when the men didn’t come home from the fields…” Recommendations for new books based on some of your old favourites… It’s a great feeling to see the first round of Riambel proofs arriving in their new homes. Happy reading! “What happens to burdens? I have some. I wonder: do they weld themselves to each other, grow thicker and denser, cleaving to our bodies with keloid seams? Because this coalescence, this mounting and merging would explain why my hips hurt the week of my daughter’s birthday, the week I spent in the hospital, wrecked and apart from her. Why my back hurts the month my dad died. Why the news sometimes makes my thigh bones shake and scrape against my knees. Why I take a hot, salty bath every night; to wash off the stickiness that has amassed, some of it old, antebellum and farther back, cobwebbed and preverbal, grandmothers’ and great grandmothers’. Yes, I think burdens collect. They are the body itself; please don’t call me strong.” Straight from the printers and into our hands. A first look at the proofs for RIAMBEL, the utterly devastating novel from Priya Hein. This book is going to tear you apart. Now available from Spiracle audiobooks, THESE BONES WILL RISE AGAIN is Panashe Chigumadzi’s powerful work detailing Zimbabwe’s struggle against the Mugabe regime. Happy Publication Day to the brutally honest debut essay collection from Savala Nolan.
