From the award-winning director and NYT bestselling author of If Cats Disappeared from the World, the thrilling novelization of his hit film Exit 8, adapting the indie game of the same name.

A young man is commuting on a packed Tokyo subway, when he receives a phone call from his ex, with life-changing news. As he hurries off the train and through the station to join her, the call drops, no signal. Suddenly, reality shifts. He can’t find the exit. Each time he passes through sterile corridors, silent except for his own footsteps, he discovers himself back at the beginning, going past the same advertisements, locked closets, coin-operated photo booth, and, disturbingly, the same man, who never responds to him. His desperation increases, but a sign on the wall reveals the rules he must follow in order to escape:

Do not overlook any anomalies.
If you find an anomaly, turn back immediately.
If you do not find any anomalies, do not turn back.
Go out through Exit 8.

As he stumbles through this endless loop, its only variations the bizarre terrors he is forced to endure, he finds himself confronting the traumas and disappointments of his past, and staring down the crossroads of his future. But as he falls deeper and deeper into this seemingly inescapable new reality, Exit 8 has never felt further away—unless, perhaps, anomalies are not things to be feared but to be embraced. Will he ever escape, and what lies on the other side?

In a small village in Awadh, fourteen-year-old Gibran’s conservative father wants him to get employed in a mosque. The boy attends the madrasa, memorizes his lessons, helps his Amma at home … and yet, on freezing Friday mornings, when he must bathe before offering prayers, he wonders why there must be Fridays in winter!

Gibran’s is an innocent world: he loves flying kites, flies even dragonflies by tying strings to their tails, skips the madrasa to watch the Nat’s tamasha, gets caned for stealing a quarter-rupee coin, and when a cat grabs their hen, he asks why He who made the cat also made the hen.

One day, news arrives that his father has been arrested on suspicion of terrorism, and Gibran’s world turns upside down. Faced with death, parting and abandonment, his only refuge might lie in a world of imagination.

Celebrated Urdu writer Mohsin Khan’s acclaimed first novel, Allah Miyan’s Workshop, now masterfully translated into English by Maaz Bin Bilal, is a story about childhood and its travails – at once humorous, tender and piercing.

One April, thirty-year-old Aniruddhan goes to the police station with a complaint: a woman named Mudritha has disappeared. He has, however, never met her; only interacted with her on the phone and by email while organizing, at her request, a tour to Odisha for herself and nine others - all women. After preliminary inquiries, though, the case is likely to be closed for want of progress. But Vanitha, the policewoman in charge, continues the investigation secretly. What begins as a search for Mudritha soon reveals more about the other women, a diverse group, who want to slip away, travel and touch the world beyond the mundane confines of their existence.

Jissa Jose's Mudritha explores women's lives: their desires, ambitions, love, anger, and attempts to resist and rise above the encroachment over their bodies and souls. Set in contemporary Kerala, the novel is a compelling portrait of women and the sojourns they make to find themselves - its every surge, every swell enlivened in this English translation by Jayasree Kalathil.

The city you grew up in is gone, as if sunk to the bottom of the ocean. So much has vanished with it—classmates, teachers, counterfeit watches, the erotic toe cleavage that used to lead the way down secret passages. Yet you still catch snatches of conversation lingering in the air and glimpse sun-dazzled residents retreating into dark crevices.

People seem to keep disappearing. Your mother joins in a housewives’ protest, each woman waving the fake, bloody lotus roots they were sold until police helicopters unleash a glittery spray that turns them into statues. Then it’s just you and your father at home, until he is quietly absorbed into the enormous new TV gifted by the government, and you spot him doing tai chi or picking through leftovers in the background of soap operas. And didn’t you once have a little sister, before she flew away in her school uniform? As the police go undercover and transform your neighborhood into a violent labyrinth you can no longer navigate, where does this leave you?

Lucid, nightmarish, and indelible, City Like Water is a wondrous and pointed message in a bottle from a city not so different from your own.

From National Book Award–winning Elisa Shua Dusapin, a subtle yet powerful portrayal of family, secrets, and silence set against the backdrop of a crumbling house in the French countryside—perfect for readers of Katie Kitamura and Elena Ferrante.

“A bewitching meditation on tenderness and violence, intimacy and estrangement, The Old Fire will transport you to an ancient and wild place, immersing you in its temperatures and rainfalls, its grief and grace and sound and silence. You won’t be the same when you leave it.” —Tess Gunty, National Book Award–winning author of The Rabbit Hutch

Through the window, I can see a light inside.

Agathe leaves New York and returns to her home in the French countryside, after fifteen years away.

She and her sister Véra have not seen each other in all those years, and they carry the weight of their own complicated lives. But now their father has died, and they must confront their childhood home on the outskirts of a country estate ravaged by a nearby fire before it is knocked down. They have nine days to empty it. As the pair clean and sift through a lifetime’s worth of belongings, old memories, and resentments surface.

Tender and tense, haunting and evocative, The Old Fire is Elisa Shua Dusapin’s most personal and moving novel yet. An exploration of time and memory, of family and belonging, it is also a graceful and profound look at the unsaid and the unanswered, the secrets that remain, and whether you can ever really go home again.

“A touching, mysterious novel, imbued with the beauty and strangeness of a fairy tale.” —Aysegül Savas, author of The Anthropologists

In this gripping historical saga, award-winning Spanish writer Paco Cerdà explores simmering Cold War anxieties through the lens of a legendary chess match.

Stockholm, 1962. Spain’s first chess grandmaster, Arturito Pomar, faces off against eighteen-year-old American prodigy Bobby Fischer in a match destined for legend, celebrated more for its symbolism than for its outcome. Shuttling across decades and between the United States, Spain, the Soviet Union, and beyond, The Pawn chronicles the contentious careers of the two chess masters, expertly examining the geopolitical anxieties of the 1960s that went on to shape not just the lives of these men, but the modern world.

Perfect for fans of The Storm We Made and The Queen’s Gambit, The Pawn explores the intricate shadow layers between gameplay and warfare, strategy and sedition, pawn and puppet. In this incisive and timely rendering, Cerdà presents a devastatingly human portrait of “the many exceptional people whose lives were sacrificed on the altar of Cold War interests” (The New York Times).

Spanning more than a half-century of South Korean sci-fi, this massive anthology documents a unique convergence of culture and genre Readymade Bodhisattva: The Kaya Anthology of South Korean Science Fiction presents the first book-length English-language translation of science and speculative fiction from South Korea, bringing together 13 classic and contemporary stories from the 1960s through the 2010s. From the reimagining of an Asimovian robot inside the walls of a Buddhist temple and a postapocalyptic showdown between South and North Korean refugees on a faraway planet to a fictional recollection of a disabled woman's struggle to join an international space mission, these stories showcase the thematic and stylistic versatility of South Korean science-fiction writers in its wide array. At once conversant with the global science-fiction tradition and thick with local historical specificities, their works resonate with other popular cultural products of South Korea―from K-pop and K-drama to videogames, which owe part of their appeal to their pulsating technocultural edge and their ability to play off familiar tropes in unexpected ways. Coming from a country renowned for its hi-tech industry and ultraspeed broadband yet mired in the unfinished Cold War, South Korean science fiction offers us fresh perspectives on global technoindustrial modernity and its human consequences. The book also features a critical introduction, an essay on SF fandom in South Korea, and contextualizing information and annotations for each story. Authors include Geo-il Bok, In-Hun Choi, Djuna, Soyeon Jeong, Bo-Young Kim, Changgyu Kim, Jung-hyuk Kim, Young-ha Kim, Taewoon Lim, Yunseong Mun, Seonghwan Park, Min-gyu Pak, I-Hyeong Yun, Seonghwan Park, Mingyu Pak and I-Hyeong Yun.
