The debut novel from a literary sensation....
PRAGUE by Arthur Phillips May 2008 | £7.99
“Ultimately Phillips not only conjures the poignancy of a disappeared Budapest but,
in suitably oblique fashion, also memorialises the Prague that he so fleetingly touches.
- but for my money, Phillips has come about as close to nailing the Nine-ties Left Bank
as tangential can get. The themes that concern him, authenticity and the elsewhereness
of life, mirror those that once drove Czech émigré authors such as Josef Skvorecký and
Milan Kundera”
The New Statesman (Sadakat Kadri author of Cadogan Guide to Prague)
“How can you not fall for a book that is named after a place none of its characters
have been, but where they wish they were and where they imagine the action
is?’’ Time
Out 5 stars
“The first thing to be said about Prague is that its author is prodigiously gifted...
beautifully constructed…painfully funny.…A cinematic visual deceptiveness
prevails throughout, the characters moving in a velvety cream of detail reminiscent
of Nabokov” The Guardian

From the master of thriller writing....
VICIOUS CIRCLE by Robert Littell June 2008 | £7.99
“Nobody captures the often farcical bluff and double bluff of the espionage world
better than Robert Littell. His books are meticulously researched; none more so
than this hugely impressive novel, which plunges bravely into the heart of the
age-old confrontation between Palestinians and Israelis. It achieves the remarkable
feat of not only entertaining but also informing the reader on a very profound level.
Littell climbs brilliantly into the minds of these fundamentalists, and the ending is
exciting, cathartic, ambivalent and unpredictable, all at the same time.”
The Guardian
“An engrossing suspense-filled thriller.”
The Sunday Telegraph
“Robert Littell is one of the best and most intelligent thriller writers.”
Literary Review
“Robert Littell has long been among the subtlest of espionage magicians.”
The Sunday Times
‘‘Robert Littell writes smart, sharp thrillers.”
The Observer
