A deeply moving and revelatory reading experience, the essays collected in Portrait of an Island on Fire form a searing account of Mauritius at a crucial moment in its history. Unceasing in its critiques of racist, patriarchal abuses of power, in its unpicking of the ills at the core of contemporary Mauritian society and their roots, the collection is a milestone in thinking about the lasting social and political effects of colonialism and how they play out at the level of government policy, the handling of environmental issues, in schools, in hospitals, in families, in language. For all its well-placed anger, Ariel Saramandis sparklingly intelligent and intimate debut is full of love and momentum a push for a better future for Mauritius and, by extension, for the world.

Fleeing a nameless war, a soldier emerges from the Mediterranean scrubland, filthy, exhausted and seeking refuge. A chance meeting forces him to rethink his journey, and the price he puts on a life. On 11 September 2001, aboard a small cruise ship near Berlin, a scientific conference pays tribute to the late Paul Heudeber, an East German mathematician, Buchenwald survivor, communist and anti-fascist whose commitment to his side of the Wall was unshaken by its collapse. The oblique pull between these two narratives a cipher in itself brings to light everything that is at stake in times of conflict: truth and deception, loyalty and betrayal, hope and despair. Superbly translated by Charlotte Mandell and told in Mathias Enards typically mesmerizing, inventive prose, The Deserters lays bare the ravages of war on the most intimate aspects of life and asks what remains of our selves in its wreckage.

Lili is Crying, Hélène Bessettes debut novel, explores the fraughtness and depth of the troubling relationship between Lili and her mother Charlotte. With a near-mythic quality, Bessettes stripped-back prose evokes at once the pain of thwarted love of desire run cold and the promise of renewal. Lauded by critics on its initial publication in 1953 for its boundary-pushing style, unusual economy of expression, strange humour and sheer vivacity, Lili is Crying announces Bessettes singular take on the poetic novel. This edition marks the very first translation of Bessettes work into English, by Windham-Campbell Prize-winning author and translator Kate Briggs. Autorid: Hélène Bessette, Kate Briggs, Eimear McBride
