Tom McCarthy
A stunning tour de force in which the eerily idyllic settings of pre-war Europe give way to the exhilarating flight-paths of the frontline aeroplane radio operator, then the prison camps of Germany, the drug-fuelled London of the roaring twenties and, finally, the ancient tombs of Egypt. Reminiscent of Bolano, Beckett and Pynchon, this is a remarkable novel.

Late for Tea at the Deer Palace
Tamara Chalabi
This lyrical, haunting, multi-generational memoir of one of the oldest and most prominent families in Iraq across a tempestuous century from 1900 to the present brings together east and west, the poetic and the political as it evokes a land of beauty and grace that has been all but lost behind recent headlines.

The Year of the Flood
Margaret Atwood
The air smells faintly of burning. The waterless flood - a manmade plague - has ended the world. But two young women have survived: Ren, a young dancer; and Toby, who watches and waits from her rooftop garden. Is anyone else out there? By turns dark, tender, violent, thoughtful and uneasily hilarious, this is Atwood at her most effective.
