The Original of Laura
Vladimir Nabokov
The late Vladimir Nabokov requested that this unfinished work be destroyed, but his son, Dmitri has finally allowed it to be published. The novel was complete in Nabokov's mind, though he died before he could translate his vision on to paper. It is hard, however, to imagine any scholars, Nabokov enthusiasts or literature lovers being disappointed by even these fragments.

Family Britain, 1951-1957
David Kynaston
An astonishing array of vivid, intimate and unselfconscious voices drive this narrative, from housewives and civil servants to well-known figures, such as Doris Lessing, all combining to give a rich, unsentimental picture of everyday life in the 1950s. Deeply researched, it offers an unrivalled take on a largely cohesive, still very hierarchical society on its way to domestic ease and affluence.

The Battle of the Sun
Jeanette Winterson
Jack is the chosen one, the Radiant Boy the Magus needs in order to perfect the alchemy that will transform London of the 1600s into a golden city. But Jack isn't the kind of boy who will do what he is told by an evil genius, and he is soon involved in an epic and nail-biting adventure, featuring dragons, knights and Queen Elizabeth I, as he battles to save London.
