Het is 1949. Valdimar Haraldsson, hoofdredacteur van het tijdschrift Vis en cultuur, wordt uitgenodigd om met een Deens handelsschip mee te varen naar de Zwarte Zee. Het schip strandt in een Noorse fjord. Om de tijd te verdrijven luistert de bemanning elke avond in de eetzaal naar de verhalen van tweede stuurman Caeneus, over de tijd dat hij voer op de Argo, het legendarische schip van Jason. Valdimar zet daar zijn eigen verhalen over Vikingen en vis tegenover. Op geheel eigen wijze verweeft Sjón oude Griekse en noordse mythen met zeemansverhalen in kleurrijke, sterke, gruwelijke en uitermate erotische verhalen.

"Sublime . . . A work of coy humor and shape-shifting magic ." —The Wall Street Journal Sjón's novels have been championed by a veritable pantheon of literary luminaries: Junot Díaz, David Mitchell, A. S. Byatt, Hari Kunzru, and Alberto Manguel, who calls The Whispering Muse "an extraordinary, powerful fable—a marvel." The Whispering Muse is Sjón's masterpiece so far. The year is 1949 and Valdimar Haraldsson, an eccentric Icelander with elevated ideas about the influence of fish consumption on Nordic civilization, has had the extraordinary good fortune to be invited to join a Danish merchant ship on its way to the Black Sea. Among the crew is the mythical hero Caeneus, disguised as the second mate. Every evening after dinner he entrances his fellow travelers with the tale of how he sailed with the fabled vessel the Argo on the Argonauts' quest to retrieve the Golden Fleece. What unfolds is a slender, brilliant, always entertaining novel that evokes Borges and Calvino as it weaves together tales of myth and antiquity with the modern world in a literary voice so singular as to seem possessed.

'Spooky, atmospheric, brilliant' Bridget Collins 'Glitteringly dark and mesmerising' Jennifer Saint Be careful what you wish for... it may just come true. At The Mercury Theatre in London's West End, rumours are circulating of a curse. It is said that the lead actress Lilith has made a pact with Melpomene, the tragic muse of Greek mythology, to become the greatest actress to ever grace the stage. Suspicious of Lilith, the jealous wife of the theatre owner sends dresser Jenny to spy on her, and desperate for the money to help her family, Jenny agrees. What Jenny finds is a woman as astonishing in her performance as she is provocative in nature. On stage, it's as though Lilith is possessed by the characters she plays, yet off stage she is as tragic as the Muse who inspires her, and Jenny, sorry for her, befriends the troubled actress. But when strange events begin to take place around the theatre, Jenny wonders if the rumours are true, and fears that when the Muse comes calling for payment, the cost will be too high. 'Gloriously gothic' Erin Kelly 'Immersive' Beth Underdown 'Fantastic' Rebecca Netley 'Darkly seductive and artfully realised' Susan Stokes-Chapman

Dublin, 1904. De twintigjarige Nora Barnacle uit Galway werkt als kamermeisje in Finn's Hotel. Op 16 juni verandert haar leven als ze de twee jaar oudere Dubliner James Joyce ontmoet. Ze voelt zich onmiddellijk tot hem aangetrokken, en hij merkt verrast op hoe ongedwongen en vrij ze is in zijn gezelschap. Al snel zijn ze aan elkaar verknocht. Nora is bereid alles op te geven voor haar Jim: ondanks zijn weigering om te trouwen stapt ze met hem op de boot, op zoek naar een nieuw bestaan buiten Ierland. 'Nuala O'Connor heeft een bewonderenswaardige prestatie geleverd en wat al over Joyce geschreven is, aangevuld met een ontroerend inkijkje in een onvergetelijk gezin.' - Publishers Weekly

Excerpt from The Good Shepherd Benedikt was always alone on this Advent Journey of his - that is, no man went with him. To be sure he had his dog along and his bell-wether. The dog he had at this time was called Leo, and as Benedikt put it, he earned his name, for truly he was a Pope among dogs. The wether was named Gnarly; that was because he was so tough.
