LADIES DAY

By Gyula Krúdy

Gyula Krúdy, whom John Lukacs called “The greatest prose writer of Hungary in the 20th century”, created a vast body of fiction and non-fiction that still remains largely undiscovered in European literature. In Ladies Day, the undertaker János Czifra finds himself at a wedding and then in a brothel where, via an encounter with his shadow self, he witnesses a series of bizarre and sordid scenes. A young woman’s life story unfolds, including a nestled narrative of murderous love set amidst tableaus of Budapest in the early 1900’s.

THE LADIES OF GRACE ADIEU AND OTHER STORIES

By Susanna Clarke

Faerie is never as far away as you think. Sometimes you find you have crossed an invisible line and must cope, as best you can, with petulant princesses, vengeful owls, ladies who pass their time embroidering terrible fates or with endless paths in deep, dark woods and houses that never appear the same way twice. The heroines and heroes bedeviled by such problems in these fairy tales include a conceited Regency clergyman, an eighteenth-century Jewish doctor and Mary, Queen of Scots, as well as two characters from Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.

PRIVATE MEMBERS

By Leonie Fox

This steamy beach-novel just in time for the sunlight of spring follows four women as they wind their way through high society hi-jinks. Cindy is a new member at an exclusive country club with more millionaires per square foot than the Hamptons in midsummer. Laura is unhappily married to playboy golfer Sam Bentley and the former lover of Jackson West, an enigmatic Formula One driver. Keeley is the ultimate party girl, with a Premiership footballer for a boyfriend. Marianne is the decadent widow with a taste for the finer things in life – and a freak in the bedroom.
