Samantha Harvey recommends

Flesh (2025)
David Szalay
"Flesh is at once intricate and spacious, it flows both fast and deep. There's brilliance on every page. Szalay is an ingenious conductor of time, and of the fates and forces that give shape to a life."

Two-Step Devil (2024)
Jamie Quatro
"Glorious, rich, mad, wonderful, daring and epic in its scope, Two-Step Devil is simply thrilling to read."

How to Be Somebody Else (2024)
Miranda Pountney
"A stunning novel. Remarkable and real. Every single line is supercharged with a kind of cerebral eroticism, a zinging inventive intelligence. The sentences buzz and hum."
