A Place for Us
Fatima Farheen Mirza · 2018
The first acquisition for her SJP Lit imprint, and one of her personal favourites. A family story, and a book she backed twice over.
The Bee Sting
Paul Murray · 2022
Parker praised the dignity and pathos Murray gives each character, and called the book bravely devastating. Read it if you want fiction that takes every person in it seriously.
