Toni Morrison, Sarah Moss and Haruki Murakami

Beloved - Toni Morrison

Terrible, unspeakable things happened to Sethe at Sweet Home, the farm where she lived as a slave for so many years until she escaped to Ohio. Her new life is full of hope but 18 years later she is still not free.

Sethe's new home is not only haunted by the memories of her past but also by the ghost of her baby, who died nameless.

Summerwater - Sarah Moss

On the longest day of the summer, twelve people sit cooped up with their families in a faded Scottish cabin park. The endless rain leaves them with little to do but watch the other residents.

A woman goes running up the Ben as if fleeing; a retired couple reminisce about neighbours long since moved on; a teenage boy braves the dark waters of the loch in his red kayak.

Norwegian Wood - Haruki Murakami

Toru Watanabe is looking back on the love and passions of his life and trying to make sense of it all.

As his first love, Naoko, sinks deeper and deeper into mental despair, he is inexorably pushed to find new meanings and new love to survive.
