‘Sublime’ ─ JESSICA STANLEY, author of CONSIDER YOURSELF KISSED
 
‘I loved it’ ─ LISA OWENS, author of NOT WORKING
 
We’re so excited to reveal the cover for Frida Slattery As Herself by @ana_kinsella! Out May 2026, head to the link in our bio to pre-order ✨
 
When Frida Slattery and John Reddan meet in a Dublin pub in 2006, neither can imagine how they will come to shape and define each other’s lives.

Frida is struggling to launch her acting career, while John is already gaining a name for himself as a director. From the first they see in each other potential and the chance to create work that matters, though the lines between collaboration and exploitation, friendship and desire will prove dangerously slippery.
 
With the financial crisis looming, the next 15 years takes them from Dublin to London, New York and LA, and through success and disappointment, joy and heartbreak. Their connection is tested and stretched to the point of rupture, but something remains that outlasts their work and the shifting perceptions of the period.

Tracing the complex, winding path of a relationship, FRIDA SLATTERY AS HERSELF is an epic story of art, love and finding your voice, that introduces two unforgettable characters.

NEW IMPRINT ANNOUNCEMENT!

Scribner UK is to launch a new imprint, Scribner Editions, to accommodate its growing publishing programme.

Scribner Editions will be a home for literary fiction and narrative non-fiction, in English and in translation, that plays with genre, form and style.

@sophiemissing Publishing Director, Scribner UK, said: ‘With a recently expanded editorial team, it makes sense to think about how we define our future publishing. Scribner Editions will complement the stellar Scribner list, while allowing us even more space within which to take risks and launch inventive new writing, essential pursuits for any ambitious literary publisher.’

The remarkable new work of fiction from the Booker Prize-winning author of Last Orders, Waterland and Mothering Sunday

Tender, humane, funny and moving, Twelve Post-War Tales displays Graham Swift's quietly commanding ability to set the personal and the ordinary against the harsh sweep of history. It is an outstanding achievement, confirming his status as one of the great and subtlest voices of our age.

Out now in paperback

High school English teacher Polly Goodman can talk about everything and anything with the women in her book club, which is why they’ve become her closest friends and, along with her veterinarian husband, the bedrock of her life. Her students, her fraught relationship with her mother, her struggles with IVF - Polly’s book club friends have heard it all.

But when they give Polly an ancestry test kit as a joke, the results match her with a stranger. Despite it seeming clear that this match is a mistake, Polly cannot help but comb through her own family history for answers. Then, when it seems that the book club circle of four will become three, Polly learns how friendships can change your life in the most profound ways.

Written with Anna Quindlen’s trademark warmth, humor, and insight into the power of love and hope, More Than Enough explores how we find ourselves again and again through the relationships that define us.
