ORIGINAL ENGLISH LANGUAGE FICTION

My Life is like a Fairy Tale

by

Robert Irwin

This fairy story is a narrative of diminishing options and the advance to death and destruction.

It is the story of Sonja Heda and her rise from humble beginnings as a waitress in Holland to walk-on appearances in such famous German films of the Weimar and Nazi eras as The Blue Angel, The Gypsy Baron, Jew Süss, Habanera, Munchausen and, eventually, the starring role in the Nazi screwball comedy Bagdad Capers. Joseph and Magda Goebbels, Hans Albers, Eva Braun, Lillian Harvey, Albert Speer, Marika Rökk – since she knew them all, it was inevitable that she should think of writing her autobiography. Though she does not get very far with it, she does pass idle moments composing the reviews she hopes to get for My Life is like a Fairy Tale: ‘Sonja Heda’s stunning autobiography left this reviewer feeling that life is so unfair, for not only can she act and dance, but she can write – and how she can write!… At last the book that takes the lid off the steamy world of German film-making… An insightful portrait of the Nazi elite by the beautiful woman who was at its centre.’

He is the author of seven previous novels: The Arabian Nightmare (1983), The Limits of Vision (1986), The Mysteries of Algiers (1988), Exquisite Corpse (1995), Prayer-Cushions of the Flesh (1997), Satan Wants Me (1999) and Wonders Will Never Cease (2016).All of Robert’s novels have enjoyed substantial publicity and commercial success although he is best known for The Arabian Nightmare.

Dirty Old Tricksby

Pat Gray

ORIGINAL ENGLISH LANGUAGE FICTION

£9.99 10 January 2020 ISBN 978 1 912868 26 1 256p B. FormatRights: Dedalus World Rights

A chilling noir novel set in the Belfast of ‘The Troubles’ in which Pat Gray introduces us to the flawed but dogged and honourable policeman McCann. It is a welcome

return to fiction after an eighteen year silence by one of Ulster’s finest novelists.

Eight years in C Division was a long stretch for any man to be in one of the worst posts. That would break the toughest fellow. That would make you wonder if McCann was really the man for the job.

Inspector McCann is called to investigate the brutal murder of a teenage girl, at first assuming it is a sex crime or sectarian tit-for-tat killing. But another girl is killed and then his prime suspect castrated and murdered. He finds himself trapped in vicious old rivalries, unsupported and alone. Are the murders connected to ‘Dirty Tricks’ by the combatants in Ireland’s war, or has McCann lost the plot, as his boss suggests? Following the success of The Political Map of the Heart, Pat Gray’s second Belfast novel is detective fiction that is bloodier and darker than anything he has previously written.

Pat Gray was born in Belfast. He is the author of three previous novels: Mr Narrator, The Political Map of the

Heart: an account of growing up in Belfast which won the World One Day Novel Cup and was published in an extended form in 2001, and his satirical novel The Cat which was re-issued in 2015 and has been translated into several languages.

He has worked extensively in Eastern Europe, but now lives in London.

Fair Trade Heroinby

Rachael McGill

In the mid 1990s, with the Taliban poised to take over Afghanistan, young NGO worker Gwen is posted in a remote mountain village. Foreign NGOs begin to recall

their workers, fearing for their safety, but Gwen refuses to leave. She’s full of ideas to empower the women and bring new income to her impoverished community. When she meets and falls for the opium trafficker Syed, she begins to look on the cultivation of poppy in a new light. Together they formulate a plan. Fifteen years later, Gwen is working for a charity helping migrants in the UK. Her teenage daughter Nadia has never met her Afghan father and is frustrated by life with her opinionated mother. When Gwen’s past catches up with her, mother and daughter must negotiate the clash of two worlds.

Primordial Soupby

Christine Leunens

£9.99 29 November 2019 ISBN 978 1 912868 22 3 196p B. FormatRights: Dedalus World Rights

A light, zany comic novel about growing up, family, food, sex and religion with an unforgettable ending.

‘Sexuality and revelation are also on the agenda in Christine Leunens’ remarkable debut novel, Primordial Soup, a black comedy about the fleshy nature of life. Exploring Kate’s fast-and-gorge existence and her ambivalence towards men, it is a memorable book that manages to be a page turner and a stomach turner in equal measure.’ Phil Baker in The Sunday Times

‘Kinky, grotesque and very funny, this is not for the faint of heart.’ Publishers Weekly

‘This wickedly funny novel hurtles along at a furious pace. Leunens captures the confusions and horrors of adolescence brilliantly, and her use of metaphor is masterful.’ Elizabeth Judge in The Times

‘This debut novel by a former fashion model is very funny and totally weird, not least because of its idiosyncratic and highly inventive use of language.’ Scotland on Sunday

Christine Leunens was born in Hartford, Connecticut. After graduating from the University of North Carolina she

went to live in Europe with the intention of becoming a writer but ended up a fashion model, working for Givenchy, Pierre Balmain, Paco Rabanne and Nina Ricci. She is the author of three novels. Her holocaust novel Caging Skies has been made into a film by Taika Waititi for Fox Searchlight starring Scarlet Johannson and will be in cinemas in January 2020 under the title of Jojo Rabbit.

Mensahby

Gbontwi Anyetei

£9.99 10 January 2020 ISBN 978 1 912868 30 8 230p B. FormatRights: Dedalus World Rights

‘Raw, energetic and smart, Anyetei’s debut takes us into the dodgy and dangerous fringe of London’s African communities. Our guide is Mensah, east London’s answer to Philip Marlowe, on a Chandleresque quest to find a missing pop star. The action pops and the language crackles. This is the Hackney that makes middle-class hipsters go pale behind their beards.’ The Times/Sunday Times Crime Club

‘Nathan Mensah objects to being called a gangster. He’s a fixer. Someone you call with problems no one else can solve. Black, from Hackney and steeped in the culture of the East London underworld, he operates with the knowledge of the gang bosses, who leave him alone as long as he doesn’t get in their way. One morning, he gets a call from a rich white man who asks him to locate his missing wife, a much younger woman of Sudanese origin. As seasoned crime readers will guess straight away, this job lands him head-first in a far bigger plot. Mensah is a smart, resourceful and, when the occasion demands, violent operator, but the forces lined up against him could be more than he can handle.’ Alastair Mabbott in The Sunday Herald

‘This has to be one of the year’s most unusual crime novels. The hero, or anti-hero, rather in Chandler fashion, is the Mensah of the title a “fixer”, independent gangster and

connection man. As he puts it, “I make money by solving problems and resolving situations.” And so begins a tale which meanders around familiar streets and areas of east London but from a completely different cultural perspective. It is a pacy read and perhaps works even better as social history than it does as a thriller. Worth reading for the story itself and also for the insights into a whole community.’ Carole Dawson Young in Tribune

‘Fans of London noir are in for a treat.’ Publishers Weekly

Be as Little Childrenby

Vladimir Sharovtranslated by Oliver Ready

£12.99 22 October 2020 ISBN 978 1 912868 34 6 384p B. FormatRights: Dedalus World English

DEDALUS EUROPE 2020

At the centre of Be as Little Children is an ailing Vladimir Lenin, infected not with syphilis, as some historians have claimed, but with Christian fervour. Regressing

stroke by stroke to an infancy of his own, he renounces his faith in the proletariat and puts all his hope in the many children left homeless and orphaned by the Civil War. Only they will be loyal to the cause and only they can save it. Around this story Sharov weaves two other plots: a murderer who converts a Siberian people to Christianity and the life story of a female holy fool. Epic in scope and highly original in execution, Be as Little Children shows exactly why, since his untimely death in 2018, Vladimir Sharov has been widely celebrated in Russia as one of the few outstanding novelists of his era and a true heir to the classic authors of the nineteenth century.

Reviewing Vladimir Sharov’s The Rehearsals in The Los Angeles Review of Books, Caryl Emerson described it as possibly “the most ambitious attempt since Mikhail Bulgakov’s The Master and Margarita to integrate biblical plots and the terror of the Living God into the fabric of Russia’s horrific 20th century”. Be as Little Children, which Sharov completed in 2007, might be described in similar terms.

A historian of late-medieval Russia by training Vladimir Sharov(1952-2018), first turned to fiction in the late 1970s. It was not until the

Bestsellerby

Beka Adamashvilitranslated by Tamar Japaridze

Pierre Sonage is an unpopular French writer. Only twelve people attended the presentation of his latest novel. So he decides that the only way to become popular is

to die, he commits suicide for PR reasons and then goes to hell. But hell is not the place we think it might be. It’s a literary hell, where famous and unknown writers are tortured in the same way that their books used to torture readers: James Joyce writes footnotes of his own footnotes, Jack Kerouac can’t stop walking, Samuel Beckett endlessly waits for somebody… Dante Alighieri, infinite guide to this whole territory, welcomes Pierre to hell where BBC (Big Brother’s Channel) is controlled by George Orwell, William Shakespeare runs the hotel HOTHELLO and gambling house MacBet, Arthur Conan Doyle investigates strange things along with him and everything is full of literature… Bestseller is a “satirical-parody-detective-fantasy-humorous-quest-and-what-we-have missed” genre novel about breaking off the literary clichés, and ignoring or laughing at them. This book is an absolute hell for writers, but at the same time an unbelievable paradise for readers.

Memoirs of a Basque CowBernado Atxaga

translated by Margaret Jull Costa

Carlo misses his father. His parents are separated and he lives with his mother in Germany while his father is back in their

native Palermo. His father is always about to visit but somehow never quite gets to Germany. Carlo gets tired of waiting and

decides to do something about it, so he sets off for Palermo but without any money to pay for his fare. He then has a series of

adventures when anything that could go wrong does, but despite everything, Carlo gets to Palermo. He finds his father who has a

new partner and it is clear his family will never be reunited. So sadly there is no happy ending and Carlo is sent

back to Germany to be reunited with his mother.

Nobody can stop Don CarloOliver Scherz

translated by Deirdre McMahon

One dark and stormy night, Mo hears her Inner Voice urging her to begin writing her memoirs. Having ignored her Inner

Voice’s advice once before, with near-fatal consequences, she decides, this time, to do as she is told. Mo looks back on her

life, beginning with the crucial moment when she met another cow, who introduced herself as La Vache qui Rit, and assured

Mo that there was nothing more stupid in this world than a stupid cow. Mo spends her life trying to prove to her friend that, despite being a cow, she is not at all stupid. Besides, she has her Inner Voice and a great desire to live! Set in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War, in which defeated Republican supporters are

still being persecuted by victorious Nationalists, Memoirs of a Basque Cow paints a funny, touching portrait of friendship and freedom and the sometimes difficult process of finding oneself.

The stories included in this collection are classics of children’s literature and have been cherished by generations of Portuguese children. The author is one of Portugal’s greatest poets and, like her poetry, these stories are filled with her delight and pleasure in nature, gardens and the sea, as well as her keen sense of the magical. Among other things, we encounter dwarves, diminutive little girls who live on the sea bed, plants that come alive at night, a tree that lives on long after it has been felled, and a pilgrim who discovers much more than the Holy Land. Her themes are, above all, loyalty and friendship. This is the first time these stories have been translated into English.

Vivaldo Bonfim was a bored book-keeper whose main escape from the tedium of his work was provided by novels. In the office, he tended to read rather than work, and, one day, became so immersed in a book that he got lost and disappeared completely. That, at least, is the version given to Vivaldo’s son, Elias, by his grandmother. One day, Elias sets off, like a modern-day Telemachus, in search of the father he never knew. His journey takes him through the plots of many classic novels, replete with murders, all-consuming passions, wild beasts and other literary perils, and the resulting novel is, at once, a celebration of filial love, friendship and literature.
