Tim Pears recommends
The Given World (2026)
Melissa Harrison
"The Given World is a village symphony, the finest work yet by a writer in her prime, she animates whatever she focuses on, characters live, we see them, we know them. The novel roams around the village, from one inhabitant to another, each one described with great warmth and psychological acuity, during a year when the seasons are in turmoil. Characters' relations to each other coexist with the interconnecting nature around them, while beneath everything builds a dread that changes are building, too enormous to face head on."
Pixie (2026)
Jill Dawson
"Irresistible - a sparkling read . . . Pixie's voice skitters and skates across the page."
