Christobel Kent recommends
Pixie (2026)
Jill Dawson
"Jill Dawson is a truly bold and vigorous and immersive writer, a deep-diver into character and context alike. Pixie (Pamela) Colman Smith is a deliciously, irresistibly quicksilver creation, at once bumptious and insecure, brilliantly certain of her talent and determined to navigate a world that seems to offer no place for her. Dawson evokes a vividly fascinating milieu for her, conjuring up all the extraordinary characters - the shamans and poets, idealists and eccentrics and pushers at boundaries - who came into their own at the beginning of the twentieth century, the end of one era and the dawn of a new and uncertain one."
The Golden Hour (2025)
Kate Lord Brown
"Headily romantic, richly detailed, with marvellous characters and a vividly stirring landscape both geographical and historical, The Golden Hour offers escapism of the most elegantly seductive sort."
The Better Liar (2020)
Tanen Jones
"A brilliantly claustrophobic thriller with a gasp-inducing sting in the tail. Tense, controlled and masterly."
