March New Releases

This month we have five new books to pique your interest – exceptional and award-winning fiction, and myth-busting, intriguing, and political nonfiction.

Auē is a multi-award–winning novel that is both raw and sublime by a compelling new voice in New Zealand fiction, Becky Manawatu; The Voids is an unsparing story of modern-day Britain, told with brilliant flashes of humour and humanity by Ryan O’Connor; in Immune Servaas Bingé takes us on a fascinating journey through our immune system, explaining how we become ill and how best to protect ourselves; in The Lonely Hunter Aimée Lutkin explores the rise of singledom, the realities of loneliness, and whether it is possible to live contentedly alone; and Isaac Stone Fish’s America Second is a timely, provocative exposé of America’s political and business leadership’s deep ties to China.

**aue**
**(*verb*) to cry, howl, groan, wail, bawl.** **(*interjection*) expression of astonishment or distress.**
Taukiri was born into sorrow. Aue can be heard in the sound of the sea he loves and hates, and in the music he draws out of the guitar that was his father’s. It spills out of the gang violence that killed his father and sent his mother into hiding, and the shame he feels about abandoning his eight-year-old brother to a violent home.
But Taukiri’s brother,…

The Voids

**A BOOK TO LOOK OUT FOR IN 2022 FOR BBC, *i-D* MAGAZINE, AND FOYLES**
‘After a couple of weeks, I found myself standing outside the voids in the middle of the night listening for human activity, for any sign of life at all. Voids are flats that have been vacated, that will never be lived in again. But there never were any signs of life. Only the wind whistling through vacant interiors.’
In a condemned tower block in Glasgow, residents slowly trickle away until a young man is left alone with only the angels and devils in his mind for company. Stumbling from one surreal situation to the next, he encounters…

The Lonely Hunter

**A *COSMOPOLITAN* BEST NON-FICTION BOOK OF 2022**
*The Lonely Hunter* explores the rise of singledom, the realities of loneliness, and whether it is possible to live contentedly alone.
‘So what’s going on in your love life?’ This seemingly innocent question at a dinner party prompted Aimée Lutkin to finally tell the truth: it had been six years since her last relationship, and she was starting to suspect that it would be better to accept the life she had as a single woman — a life she liked very much — rather than keep searching for a partner. But Lutkin’s answer was met with uproar; surely she…

America Second

A timely, provocative exposé of America’s political and business leadership’s deep ties to China: a network of people who believe they are doing the right thing — at a profound and often hidden cost to American and Western interests.
The past few years have seen a shift in the relations between China and the United States, from enthusiastic economic partners, to wary frenemies, to open rivals. Americans have been slow to wake up to the challenges posed by the Chinese Communist Party. Why did this happen? And what can be done about it?
In *America Second*, Isaac Stone Fish traces the evolution of the…
