STOCKHOLM | Tuesday 29th August from 18:00
We are proud to host the release party of long-time bookshop friend and blogger Helena Dahlgren's debut novel Orkidépojken in our Stockholm shop! Welcome to this free release event. (Swedish-speaking event, as the book is in Swedish. Details below.)
"Den 29 augusti utkommer min debutroman Orkidépojken på Constant reader/Lava förlag! Min absolut största författaridol Christine Falkenland har läst och kallar den "En mångskiftande och sällsam berättelse om det som gick sönder innan det vuxit klart, om oskuld förlorad, om det onämnbara". Bara DET är ju värt att fira! Nu vill jag att vi samlas efter sommaren, i ett förhoppningsvis augustivarmt Stockholm, och dricker vin, äter snacks och njuter av orkidéer, musik från min spellista Orkidépojken samt ett samtal mellan mig och The English Bookshops ägare (tillika min mångåriga boktipsare och vän) Jan Smedh. Naturligtvis kommer boken finnas till signering och försäljning också. Jag hoppas att vi ses där!” /Helena Dahlgren

In 1914, war feels far away to Henry Gaunt and Sidney Ellwood. They’re too young to enlist, and anyway, Gaunt is fighting his own private battle – an all-consuming infatuation with the dreamy, poetic Ellwood – not having a clue that his best friend is in love with him, always has been. ”It was only because Gaunt knew he might die, that he could be so reckless as to kiss him.” An epic tale of the devastating tragedies of war and the forbidden romance that blooms in its grip. // Discuss in the Modern Fiction reading group //

It’s a classic setting: big city detective moves to a small country village for some peace and quiet, not getting much of either as he has barely unpacked when the bones of a young woman are discovered. The quiet country life that Jake Jackson envisioned is no more. Sometimes the quietest villages hide the darkest secrets… // Discuss in the Crime reading group //
