This is the best of the best! An eclectic mix of some of Heywood Hill’s 2023 favourites catering for the avid bibliophile of both fact and fiction. 

From a tale of ambition, betrayal, and greed played out across the Scottish Highlands, to an unflinching, desperate evocation of a new mother’s tyrannical domesticity, to Sebastian Barry’s haunting cold case detective story, we have the best fiction to while away the encroaching winter nights. And don’t miss out on David Grann’s majestic swashbuckling historical narrative of marooned mutineers off the Patagonian coast, wild memoirs, Anglo Saxon secrets, and an incandescent account of literary resistance in the years of the Spanish Civil War. 

These are the books we've really loved this year, and we know you will too.
