Wonders Will Never Cease

byRobert Irwin

It is Palm Sunday 1461 and the bloodiest battle ever fought on English soil is about to take place outside the village of Towton. It is one of a series of engagements between

the houses of York and Lancaster. The world, when younger, was more brightly coloured and its ecstasies and tortures more fiercely endured. But, ever since the Dolorous Stroke and the Showing of the Grail in the days of King Arthur, England has lain under a curse. So many have died that Hell is now full and consequently the dead stalk the land.

Anthony Woodville, Lord Scales, having been killed at Towton, is vouchsafed the first of many strange visions before being resurrected. From then on adventures come running after him like hungry dogs and he will encounter the Swordsman’s Pentacle, the Draug, the Miraculous Cauldron, the Curse of the Roasted Goose, the Talking Head and the Museum of Skulls.

The real world is a poor thing compared to the stories that are told about it. Anthony hears or takes part in many stories, and those stories are porous, so that men and monsters move easily in and out of them. The stories that Anthony encounters have only one purpose and it is not a good one.

R obert Irwin (born 1946) is a novelist, historian, critic and scholar. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature.

He is the author of seven novels all published by Dedalus: The Arabian Nightmare, The Limits of Vision, The Mysteries of Algiers, Exquisite Corpse, Prayer-Cushions of the Flesh, Satan Wants Me and Wonders Will Never Cease.

Mensahby

Gbontwi Anyetei

Mensah is a London crime novel with a difference. It is set in the deprived streets of Hackney amongst the African community, a stone’s throw away from the affluent

and gentrified parts of the borough and Islington. It pays homage to Raymond Chandler and introduces us to the charismatic Mensah, a black hero for our times.

Mensah is the kind of man you go looking for when you have a problem. He will solve your problem for a price. He might cause mayhem and carnage on the way, but he will get the job done. So when a would-be African pop star disappears, her rich husband puts Mensah on the case. Soon things start to go wrong and Mensah finds he is the one being hunted. The mean streets of Hackney spell danger for Mensah.

Mensah is one of the great London novels as it introduces the reader to an African city in the heart of London.

The Ultimate Tragedyby Abdulai Sila

Translated by Jethro Soutar

£9.99 5 May 2017 ISBN 978 1 910213 54 4 256p B. FormatRights: Dedalus World English

The first novel ever to be translated into English from Guinea Bissau, The Ultimate Tragedy is a tale of love and emerging political awareness in an Africa beginning to

challenge Portuguese colonial rule.

Ndani leaves her village to seek a better life in the capital, finding work as a maid for a Portuguese family. The mistress of the house, Dona Deolinda, embarks on a mission to save Ndani’s soul through religious teaching, but the master of the house has less righteous intentions. Ndani is expelled from the house and drifts towards home, where she becomes the wife of a village chief. He has built a mansion and a school to flaunt his power to the local Portuguese administrator, but he abandons Ndani when he finds she’s not a virgin. She eventually finds love with the school's teacher, but in tumultuous times, making a future with an educated black man involves a series of hurdles.

By turns humorous, heartrending and wise, The Ultimate Tragedy is a captivating novel that brings this little-known country to colourful, vivid life.

.

Abdulai Silá was born in 1958 in Catió, Guinea Bissau. He moved to the capital, Bissau, to complete his school

studies and then to Dresden, Germany, to complete a degree in Power Engineering. He currently lives in Bissau and combines telecommunications work with writing. He is the author of four novels: A Última Tragédia, Eterna Paixão (Eternal Passion), Mistida (Mixed) and Memórias SOMânticas (SOMantic Memories), all of which deal with Bissau-Guinean culture and history. He is the co-founder of the publisher Ku Si Mon Editora and he has also written a play, As Orações de Mansat (Mansat’s Prayers), a Bissau-Guinean Macbeth.

Portrait of a Family with a Fat Daughter

byMargherita Giacobino

Translated by Judith Landry

£12.99 27 January 2017 ISBN 978 1 910213 48 3 304p B. FormatRights: Dedalus World English

‘It has been a long while in Italian fiction since such an authentic and engaging voice has appeared.’ Bruno Quaranta in La Stampa

Portrait of a Family with a Fat Daughter tells the story of four generations of a peasant family living outside Turin between the late nineteenth century and the

boom years of the 1950s, as they clamber out of grinding rural poverty into the sixties world of frozen fish and fridges. The author's grandmother reluctantly emigrates to California after her marriage to an Italian emigrant, and returns to Italy semi-paralysed after a mishap as she is giving birth.The father and the child remain in the USA when her father dies the author’s eight-year-old mother returns to Italy, to be brought up by a family she does not know by her ‘three mothers’, her mother and two aunts, to become Italian again and ultimately to marry a captivating ‘man-boy’ whose fecklessness is grippingly described, as is his time in a German prison camp in World War II. She runs a small shop which gradually expands, lifting the family out of the working class; her daughter, Margherita, always a conscientious student, reared by this extended matriarchal family, becomes the writer of this book, and narrates the family’s story.

‘An epic novel, which is the story of an Italy which no longer exists, becomes the portrait of a family. It is a novel which touches the heart.’ Valeria Parrella in Grazie

Margherita Giacobino was born in 1952 and lives in Turin. She is a writer, journalist and translator

from French and Italian. Portrait of a Family with a Fat Daughter, published in Italy in 2015, has already been translated into French and German. It is the first novel by Margherita Giacobino to be translated into English.

Praise for Before & During: ‘Before and During remains a disorienting read. The novel invokes real historical events and people (Tolstoy, Madame de Stael, Saint John of Kronstadt, Alexander Scriabin and Stalin, among others), swirling them into a phantasmagoric alternative chronology. Stories germinate within other stories, unfolding in astonishing variations. The clarity and directness of Sharov's prose – wonderfully rendered by Oliver Ready – are disconcerting, almost hallucinatory. His writing is at times funny, at times so piercingly moving, so brimful of unassuaged sorrow, that it causes a double-take.’ Rachel Polonsky in The New York Review of Books

A historian of late-medieval Russia by training, Vladimir Sharov, born in 1952, first turned to fiction in the late 1970s. It was not until the 1990s, however,

that his extraordinarily imaginative and daring novels come to the attention of the public. When they did, they caused acrimony and controversy. Before and During was his first novel to appear in English when it was published in 2014.

New Jerusalem Monastery, seventeenth-century Moscow. Patriarch Nikon has instructed an itinerant French dramatist to stage the New Testament and hasten

the Second Coming. But this will be a strange form of theatre. The actors are untrained, illiterate Russian peasants, and nobody is allowed to play Christ. They are persecuted, arrested, displaced, and ultimately replaced by their own children. Yet the rehearsals continue... A stunning reflection on art, history, religion and national identity, The Rehearsals is the seminal work in the unique oeuvre of Vladimir Sharov, Russian Booker Prize winner (2014) and author of Before & During (Read Russia award for best translation, 2015).

DEDALUS EUROPEAN CLASSICS

The Fables of Ivan Krylov

Translated by Stephen Pimenoff

Ivan Krylov has been loved by the Russian people for 200 years for his Fables, works in which he gently satirizes the manifold weaknesses and failings of human

beings, especially figures of authority, while at the same time praising and holding up for emulation the qualities in ordinary people of selflessness, industry, loyalty, love, friendship, perseverance…Solid, earthy common sense and a long acquaintance with the ways of the world lie at the root of Krylov’s observations. Some of the Fables are no more than humorous glimpses of life and human nature, or snapshots of the bizarre preoccupations of fantasists, eccentrics, idealists and dreamers. Others offer wry, sardonic glimpses of life, and human relationships and behaviour. Yet others offer wise advice on the conduct of life, or are “cautionary tales”: warnings about the consequences of ill-considered behaviour. The Fables are elegantly written, and flavoured with apposite allusions to Classical mythology and a good deal of humour. Like other great allegorical writings such as A Pilgrim’s Progress, Don Quixote, and Animal Farm they can be read on different levels, and enjoyed by all, from young children to the very old.

Ivan Andreyevitch Krylov was born near St. Petersburg in 1769 into a poor family of the minor nobility. His father,

an army captain, died without a pension when Krylov was ten, leaving the family destitute. Krylov trained for the civil service, but from his early years nurtured literary ambitions. As a young man he wrote for satirical magazines and the theatre, but was constantly thwarted by the official censor. At the age of forty he published his first book of Fables, works written after the manner of Aesop and La Fontaine. They were an instant success, and were followed over the next 35 years by another eight books. He became a celebrated and much-loved literary figure.

Toomas Nipernaadiby

August GailitTranslated by Eva & Jason Finch

Toomas Nipernaadi is one of the more peculiar works in the Estonian literary canon, and its eponymous male protagonist is without doubt one of the most exciting

characters in the language. First of all he seems merely to be a man who travels from place to place charming people and telling stories, only to forget it all in the blink of an eye. But perhaps, more than anybody, it is precisely he who remembers. Perhaps all the hearts he touches will remain dear to him.

The idea of Toomas Nipernaadi is said to have come to Gailit when he heard a man’s echoing footsteps in a Berlin theatre, and those who wish to, will hear this sound in the text of his novel. In many ways the protagonist can be seen as the writer’s alter ego. Those close to Gailit knew that beneath his self-confidence and brio, a tender and melancholy soul was hiding, which the reader will no doubt be able to recognise in Toomas Nipernaadi.

Since it was first published in 1928, the book has conquered one heart after another, and it will charm many coming generations. Besides other things, it captures the dream-like summer of Estonia: brief yet eternally recurring.

August Gailit (1891-1960) was a writer of exuberant imagination, a late neo-romanticist, whose entire

output focuses on the external opposition of beauty and ugliness. His most influential work is Toomas Nipernaadi (1928). Toomas Nipernaadi has become both a classic figure and text in Estonia. A film adaptation entitled Nipernaadi and directed by Kaljo Kiisk was released in 1983. August Gailit's story Maiden of the North is featured in The Dedalus Book of Estonian Literature.He emigrated to Sweden in 1944.

Seven Brothersby

Alexis KiviTranslated by David Hackston

Aleksis Kivi’s Seven Brothers is a unique classic of 19th century Finnish literature, a work that has remained an unrivalled favourite among Finnish readers for almost

150 years. At the time of its publication the work was initially seen as an allegory of the birth of the Finnish nation and its path from ignorance to civilisation. More recently it has been understood to be one of the great melting pots of European literature, as the story of a group of illiterate brothers in the Finnish countryside borrows, modifies and reshapes a wide variety of classical and Renaissance literature.

First published in 1870, Seven Brothers was the first novel written in Finnish. Almost singlehandedly the novel created the literary Finnish language. Stylistically Seven Brothers explores a wide variety of narrative styles, the prose at times parodying the language of the Bible and at others employing poetry and dialogue. Today the world of the novel, its characters, events, stories, songs and poems, permeates every layer of Finnish culture.

Aleksis Kivi (born Aleksis Stenvall,1834–1872) is widely considered the father of the Finnish novel.

Kivi also wrote poetry and plays which are now considered classic works but it is for Seven Brothers that he will always be remembered.

DEDALUS EUROPEAN CLASSICS

The Illustrious House of Ramires

byEça de Queiroz

Translated by Margaret Jull Costa

This new translation of The Illustrious House of Ramires completes the Dedalus Eça de Queiroz project begun in 1992. From his first book The Mystery of the

Sintra Road, written with his friend Ortega to the mature masterpieces The Crime of Father Amaro and The Maias and the work published after his death, including the wonderful The Tragedy of the Street of Flowers only published in 1980. These ten books all impeccably translated by Margaret Jull Costa are a fitting English monument to one of Europe’s greatest novelists.

First published in 1900, the year of Eça de Queiroz’s death, the book portrays Gonçalo Mendes Ramires, the latest member of an aristocratic family that predates even the kings of Portugal. In the isolation of the gloomy ancient tower of Santa Ireneia, Gonçalo rehearses the feats of derring-do of an uninterrupted line of ancestors whose most recent contribution is himself, ‘a graduate who had failed his third year examinations at university’. Hoping to win some small scholarly reputation and thus secure a political future in the capital, Gonçalo sets out to portray, à la Walter Scott, the adventures of one such ancestor. Eça de Queiroz’s luxurious prose lends itself well to both the subtle irony of his morality play and the beauty of a decrepit Portuguese estate with its autumn sun, wilting flowers, faded portraits and other reminders of a bloody and powerful past.
