[Studio NI]

Dear Friends, Ready for your next great read? We're so delighted to see this stunning debut reviewed in the Irish Times over the weekend. But don't just take our word (or that of our paper of record!) for it: 'In his debut, Juliano Zaffino shows himself to be a writer of tremendous authority and delicate touch' Lauren Groff   'Quick and vivid and clever'  Doireann Ní Ghríofa 'A debut of rare confidence ... Zaffino emerges as a writer of considerable intelligence'  Irish Times Pick up a copy at all good bookshops!  ­ Gethan Dick Wins the Kate O'Brien Award You may have read this in-depth Guardian review, and the Independent had this to say: 'Gethan Dick is a writer worthy of our time and a writer, I believe, we’ll be reading long into the future.' Water in the Desert, Fire in the Night is a propulsive, optimistic end-of-the-world novel from a really exciting new voice in Irish fiction. Congratulations Gethan!  ­ Other News!  We were so proud to have no less than 4 books included in the recent Irish Book Awards celebration of their 20th anniversary, and their best ever 20 books – a really strong representation for Tramp, and a wonderful acknowledgement of the enduring quality of Spill Simmer Falter Wither, Solar Bones, Notes to Self and A Ghost in the Throat. You might have noticed Lena Dunham picking Problems by Jade Sharma (a cult classic we were delighted to publish in 2018) in an interview with Time Magazine earlier this month!  Thanks for reading!
