**AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW** 'A writer of sentences so elegant
that they gleam.' ALI SMITH 'A writer we should be delirious to
have as a contemporary.' INDEPENDENT The new novel from the
Goldsmiths Prize-shortlisted author Helen Oyeyemi. Oyeyemi treats
you to a kaleidoscopic weekend in Prague, as dazzling as it is
effortlessly unique. Get lost in the story like you would an
unfamiliar city and let it reward you with moments of philosophical
clarity, wheelbarrow rides, raw emotion and raw onions. This novel
is a holiday, an adventure, a marvel and a guide. It is a story
about the lies behind the lies we tell and a city as a living
thing, sustained by the lives of its inhabitants. Suffused with
warmth and joy, Parasol Against the Axe is a love letter to Prague,
and to the art of storytelling.
