Author M. Laszlo is back with Anastasia’s Midnight Song, a genre-bending journey through time, love, and the surreal, said to be perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman, Susanna Clarke, and David Mitchell!
The novel is a mesmerising addition to the emerging genre of ‘weird fiction’ (stories that defy easy categorisation and challenge conventional narrative forms) which explores themes of connection, memory, and the enduring power of music and we have FIVE COPIES to give away in our latest competition.
But first, check out the official synopsis of Anastasia’s Midnight Song…
French Huguenot Anastasia believes working in one of Sinai’s mirror factories will allow her to trap the imaginary Arctic Fox which lives in her womb. Meanwhile, Jack escapes from London and travels to Sinai to avoid being conscripted to fight in the trenches. His strange imaginings do little to alleviate his feelings of cowardice.
When they meet, Jack is seized with a fierce desire to possess her, and nothing can diminish his obsessive urge to be noticed by her, despite her obvious disgust of his crude advances.
Their journeys twist together like a fugue, filled with fantastical delays, as they both fail to accomplish what they set out to do. On a quest for moral truths, and unable to escape the consequences of their false beliefs, they relentlessly approach the acute phase of their schizophrenia.
