'A touching exploration of passion untested by domesticity' Mail on Sunday Before Isabelle I knew nothing of sex. Before Isabelle I knew nothing of freedom. Before Isabelle I knew nothing of life. Paris in the early Seventies. Sam, an American student, meets a woman in a bookshop. Isabelle is enigmatic, beautiful, older and, unlike Sam, experienced in love's many contradictions. Sam is instantly smitten - but wary of the wedding ring on her finger. What begins as a regular arrangement in Isabelle’s tiny Parisian apartment transforms into a true affair of the heart, and one which lasts for decades to come. Isabelle in the Afternoon is a novel that questions what we seek, what we find, what we settle for - and shows how love, when not lived day in, day out, can become the passion of a lifetime. Praise for Douglas Kennedy ‘The absolute master of love stories with heart-stopping twists’ THE TIMES ‘Kennedy is skilled at zigzag plotting, blending domestic twists with turns created by global affairs’ OBSERVER

From the Man Booker Prize longlisted author of My Name is Lucy Barton ? Isabelle Goodrow has been living in self-imposed exile with her daughter Amy for fifteen years. Shamed by her past and her affair with Amy's father, she has submerged herself in the routine of her dead-end job and her unrequited love for her boss. But when Amy, frustrated by her quiet and unemotional mother, embarks on an illicit affair with her maths teacher, the disgrace intensifies the shame Isabelle feels about her own past. Throughout one long, sweltering summer, as the events of the small town ebb and flow around them, Amy and Isabelle exist in silent conflict until a final act leads ultimately to the understanding they both crave.

Après La Symphonie du hasard, Douglas Kennedy nous offre une œuvre sensuelle, délicate, nostalgique, sur les amours contrariées, le destin que l'on se forge et les regrets qui peuvent jalonner l'existence. C'est aussi sa déclaration d'amour à Paris, ville de tous les possibles et de toutes les réinventions. Avant Isabelle, je ne savais rien du sexe. Avant Isabelle, je ne savais rien de la liberté. Avant Isabelle, je ne savais rien de la vie. Paris, début des années 1970. Dans une librairie de la rive gauche, un jeune homme rencontre une femme. Il est américain, étudiant, sans le sou, et a tout quitté pour assouvir ses fantasmes de la Ville Lumière ; elle est française, un peu plus âgée, sophistiquée, mystérieuse et... mariée. Entre Sam et Isabelle, c'est le coup de foudre. Commence alors une liaison tumultueuse, des cinq à sept fiévreux, des rendez-vous furtifs, des moments volés. Mais Sam veut plus. Isabelle lui a ouvert les portes d'une autre vie mais est-elle prête à tout lui sacrifier ? La passion saura-t-elle résister au quotidien, aux épreuves et au temps qui passe ?

‘Accomplished...a strangely mesmerising effect...absolutely excellent’ New Statesman New York, 1980s Alice Burns – a young book editor – is deep into a manuscript about the morass of family life. The observations within resonate, perhaps, because she has just watched her own family implode. As she reads she wonders: When did the sadness start? And could it be that unhappiness is a choice? Thus begins a great American epic which follows Alice as she navigates high school, first love and sexism at an elite college, a spell in 1970s Ireland, and a tragedy that sends her stateside as the US embraces a cowboy actor named Reagan. But it is also the tale of her endlessly complex parents and brothers – how their destinies are written by the lies they tell themselves and others. The Great Wide Open is an immensely ambitious and compulsive saga; a novel which will speak volumes to anyone who has marvelled at that pain that can only be caused by family itself.

Isabelle Airly’s father is dead by his own hand, after a term in prison for insurance fraud. Her boyfriend of four years has lost his life in a motorcycle accident. And inside, Isabelle is lost at sea, struggling to stay afloat, and wondering how a woman who has lost so much can begin to find herself again.

Now single, estranged from her family, and preparing to wave her daughter off to university, Ava's life seems a million miles away from the one she dreamed about as a teenager - a life now being lived by her sister instead. When Ava decides to return to Corfu for the summer, she knows she must finally face the place and the people that broke her heart. But with old resentments festering, long-buried secrets lurking, and familiar feelings resurfacing, it looks set to be a holiday that will change all their lives forever. . . *** Praise for Isabelle Broom: 'Gloriously escapist, unashamedly romantic, witty and hugely enjoyable' Sunday Mirror 'I totally lost myself in this heart-warming, charming tale of love, family and gorgeous Greece.
