Our best-seller from the past week is Sadvertising, a fantastic collection of short stories from an emerging writer that is described as both subversive and surreal. This ambitious collection is a rewarding reading venture and, as our reviewer notes, ultimately provides ‘a varied yet cohesive commentary on the strange modern world we’ve created and the absurdities that come with trying to live in it.’ Read the full review here.

Other books making an appearance on our bestseller list this week include our crime book of the month, ‘an imaginative and brilliantly executed literary debut’ that our head book buyer predicts she will be recommending all year long, and the latest Brunetti novel from the prolific crime author Donna Leon.
