Selda Heddle, a famously reclusive composer, is found dead in a snowy field near her Cornish home. She was educated at Agnes’s Hospice for Acoustically Gifted Children, which for centuries has offered its young wards a grounding in the gift – an inherited ability to tune into the voices and sounds of the past. When she dies, Selda’s gift passes down to her grandson Wolf, who must make sense of her legacy, and learn to live with the newly unleashed voices in his head. Ambitious and exhilarating, The Variations is a novel of startling originality about music and the difficulty – or impossibility – of living with the past. - Häftad, Engelska, 2023

‘Portrait of a River’ follows the course of the River Thames from London to the open sea, reflecting on changes in the adjoining landscape and drawing on stories from people who live and work on the Thames and its estuary. Based on the film of the same name by the Danish artist Nikolaj Bendix Skyum Larsen, it brings together striking photos from the film with transcripts of interviews with its key protagonists, alongside other material such as overheard conversations, radio broadcasts and sea shanties. Part visual memento, part oral history, the book also features three new essays by Nick Papadimitriou, Steven Bode and Patrick Langley.
Designed by Spencer Fenton.

Brothers Jackson and Frank live on the margins of a big urban sprawl. From abandoned tower blocks to gleaming skyscrapers, their city is brutal, beautiful and divided. As anti-government protests erupt across the teeming metropolis, the brothers sail in search of the Red Citadel and its promise of a radical new way of life. A striking portrait of the precarity of modern urban living, and of the fierce bonds that grow between brothers, Patrick Langley's debut Arkady is a brilliant coming-of-age novel, as brimming with vitality as the city itself.
