In Hawaii, a cast of women reckon with physical and emotional alienation, and the toll it takes on their psyches. A childhood encounter with a wild pua'a (boar) on the haunted Pali highway portends one woman's increasingly fraught relationship with her body during pregnancy. A woman recalls an uncanny experience, in which Elvis impersonators take centre stage, to an acquaintance who doesn't yet know just how intimately they're connected. An elderly widow begins seeing her deceased lover in the giant corpse flower a mourner has gifted her. Both a fierce love letter to mixed native Hawaiian and Japanese women and a searing dispatch from an occupied territory simmering with tension, Every Drop is a Man's Nightmare takes seriously the superstitions born of the islands. Kakimoto's characters seek pleasure and purpose even in absurd circumstances, often with a surprising sense of humor, and her stories treat Hawai'i as so much more than a postcard from paradise.

George Orwell's dystopian vision of a government that will do anything to control the narrative has never been more essential reading. Winston Smith obeys the Party, rewriting history at the Ministry of Truth. But increasingly, Winston grows to hate the persecution of those who commit Thoughtcrime.

This 75th anniversary edition contains reproduced facsimile pages from Orwell's original manuscript, and a new introduction by Sandra Newman, author of the Sunday Times bestselling Julia.
