These and many other mad, bad and too-dangerous-to-know individuals await you in Dirty Noir, a collection of short stories from authors Martin Mulligan and Jack D. McLean.

    From internationally best-selling author Daniel Kehlmann comes this provocative and wickedly funny novel about two unpredictable men—one an artist and the other a journalist—who embark on an unexpected adventure with uproarious results. Sebastian Zollner's failure as a journalist is matched only by his personal failures. Searching for redemption in the eyes of his peers, he heads off into the mountains to interview the eccentric, legendary painter Manuel Kaminski with the hope of writing his biography. Going blind and living in seclusion with his daughter, Kaminski could be working on his next masterpiece or easing into his final days. His artistic reputation hinges on any number of factors, but most prominently on a definitive biography. With edgy wit and intelligence, Kehlmann dives into the question of what is "truth" in our celebrity-crazed times and embraces the energy and humanity that lie beneath the pretensions of the art and journalistic worlds.

    When moving on means moving out… 
    Surely there should be a rule book to guide you through the tumultuous twenties, or a ‘to do list’ at the very least?  
    Fresh out of university in Manchester and struggling to climb the career ladder in London, Flick’s devastated when her boyfriend dumps her with no warning and leaves her looking for a new place to live. 
    Being forced into a houseshare with three complete strangers isn’t exactly how Flick saw things going. But the residents of Carlisle Avenue are quickly on hand to help her navigate the ups and downs of the life she’s currently winging. 
    With their help, along with her big sister, Flick manages to focus her energy on ticking off items that she’s added to her ‘twenties list’ – the perfect bucket list for any twenty-something reclaiming their life post-break up. 
    And all is going well, that is until her boss catches wind of it and asks her to create a new magazine column documenting her progress. Enter Teddy, a sweet guy who becomes Flick’s friend after a tennis meet-cute. As the column finds its feet Flick’s in way over her head, somehow managing to fake-date Teddy to please her boss and her readers. 
    But the further Flick gets into twenties life, the more she realizes: maybe she’s not the only one following the ‘fake it ‘til you make it’ mantra. 
    In this top-rated romantic comedy, Flick's journey through the ups and downs of city life is filled with humorous encounters and unexpected friendships. The contemporary setting and the blossoming romance with Teddy add a delightful twist to her story. 
    For fans of Annabel Monaghan (Same Time Next Summer), Jessa Hastings (The Conditions of Will), Sarah Adams (Beg, Borrow, or Steal), Cara Bastone (Promise Me Sunshine), and Katherine Center (The Love Haters).
