Two star-crossed teenagers fall in love during the Hong Kong protests in this searing contemporary novel about coming-of-age in a time of change. Sixteen-year-old Phoenix knows her parents have invested thousands of dollars to help her leave Hong Kong and get an elite Ivy League education. They think America means big status, big dreams, and big bank accounts. But Phoenix doesn’t want big; she just wants home. The trouble is, she doesn’t know where that is … until the Hong Kong protest movement unfolds, and she learns the city she’s come to love is in danger of disappearing. Seventeen-year-old Kai sees himself as an artist, not a filial son, and certainly not a cop. But when his mother dies, he’s forced to leave Shanghai to reunite with his estranged father, a respected police officer, who’s already enrolled him in the Hong Kong police academy. Kai wants to hate his job, but instead, he finds himself craving his father’s approval. And when he accidentally swaps phones with Phoenix and discovers she’s part of a protest network, he finds a way to earn it: by infiltrating the group and reporting their plans back to the police. As Kai and Phoenix join the struggle for the future of Hong Kong, a spark forms between them, pulling them together even as their two worlds try to force them apart. But when their relationship is built on secrets and deception, will they still love the person left behind when the lies fall away?

Surrounded by a vast, toxic desert, the inhabitants of labyrinthine Echo City believe there is no other life in their world. Some like it that way, so when a stranger arrives he is anathema to powerful interest groups. But Peer Nadawa found the stranger and she is determined to keep him and the freedom he represents alive. A political exile herself, she calls on her ex-lover Gorham, now leader of their anti-establishment network. Then they recruit the Baker, whose macabre genetic experiments seem close to sorcery. However, while factions prepare for war, an ancient peril is stirring. In the city's depths something deadly is rising, and it will soon reach the levels where men dwell.

This work features artists: Jeremy Till, Ian Anderson, Ruth Ben Tovim, Tim Etchells, Hugo Glendinning, Jim Prevett, Trish O'Shea, Martyn Ware, and, Sarah Wigglesworth. This publication accompanies Echo / City, the British Pavilion exhibition for the 10th Venice Biennale of Architecture. Echo / City was commissioned by the British Council and conceived and designed by Jeremy Till, Professor of Architecture at Sheffield University, and presents Sheffield as an exemplar of post-industrial cities everywhere, using the city as a paradigm for discussion of their identity and renewal. Till explains: Sheffield acts as a vehicle to push around wider ideas about cities and their social dynamics. In this way, it is an echo of many cities, buffeted by the social and technological forces of modernity. The exhibition has Sheffield at its heart, but is about much more than Sheffield; it is about any city.

'One of the hidden geniuses of the twentieth century' Colm Tóibín 'She suddenly leaned toward the mirror and sought the loveliest way to see herself' Lucrécia Neves is vain, unreflective, insolently superficial, almost mute. She may have no inner life at all. As she morphs from small-town girl to worldly wife of a rich man, and her small home town surrenders to the forces of progress, Lucrécia seeks perfection: to be an object, serene, smooth, beyond the burden of words or even thought itself. A book that obsessed its author, The Besieged City is unlike any other work in Lispector's canon: a story of transformation, of what it means to see and to be seen.

Israel: An Echo of Eternity is Dr. Heschel's book about the past, present, and future home of the Jews. According to Dr. Heschel the presence of Israel has tremendous historical and religious significance for the whole world: "History is not always made by men alone...Israel is a personal challenge, a personal religious issue. We are God's stake in human history. We are the dawn and the dusk, the challenge and the test. The presence of Israel is the repudiation of despair. Israel calls for a renewal of trust in the Lord of history." Abraham Joshua Heschel, one of the foremost religious figures of our time, died in 1972. Israel: An Echo of Eternity is his powerful and eloquent book on the meaning of Israel today.

They were bred as hybrids in an advanced futuristic parallel world countless light years away from Gaea, somewhere within the maze of the universe. Radan, Motaro, Falbala, along with their families, were sent to earth by their breeders for an experimental purpose during medieval times in Europe. The hybrids with mythological looks, gifted supernatural abilities, and wide genetic memories were wrongly taken for demons and evil creatures as they made contact with humans. They sought friendship and found home with a shaman’s three children and bonded together with them. Following a couple of mysteriously tragic events, and after he saved the village from a ravaging fast acting disease, Radan was determined to override his breeder’s plan and make Gaea his forever home, choosing to stay by Ara’s side (the shaman’s older daughter).

Buildings next to buildings, askew or aligned. The twisted yet familiar. The City of Angles, a dreamlike world of wonders and terrors... Those brought here live with the unfortunate knowledge that they are not unique. They're a copy of the original, a mere echo of who they once were back in that distant and unreachable land called Earth. Some embrace their status as an echo, using it as a fresh start. Others fall to pieces, unable to cope with the loss of their identity. What is the value of a life in the City of Angles, exactly? Why value it so highly? Why not throw it away? Why not fall apart? In fact, why not take the entire City down with you in the process? Soon, Penelope Yates and those she's gathered over the years will face one who asks that question... and who gets to answer it will determine the fate of all.

A Times Fiction Book of the Year 'Superb . . . weaves winningly between the present and the second world war, between Tangiers and Paris.' Observer Here is Paris as you have never seen it before – a city in which every building seems to hold the echo of an unacknowledged past, the shadows of Vichy and Algeria. American postdoctoral researcher Hannah and runaway Moroccan teenager Tariq have little in common, yet both are susceptible to the daylight ghosts of Paris. Hannah listens to the extraordinary witness of women who were present under the German Occupation; in her desire to understand their lives, and through them her own, she finds a city bursting with clues and connections. Out in the migrant suburbs, Tariq is searching for a mother he barely knew. For him in his innocence, each boulevard, Métro station and street corner is a source of surprise. In this urgent and deeply moving novel, Faulks deals with questions of empire, grievance and identity. With great originality and a dark humour, Paris Echo asks how much we really need to know if we are to live a valuable life. ‘Faulks captures the voice of a century’ Sunday Times ‘The most impressive novelist of his generation’ Sunday Telegraph
