From the Women's Prize-shortlisted author of First Love, The Palm House is a sharply observed, slyly funny novel of enduring friendships and small mercies. 'This goes straight onto my list of favourite modern novels' - The Times 'One of our finest novelists of constrained fury: nobody writes better' - The Observer 'Mesmerising . . . confirms Riley as one of Britain's best' - The Telegraph 'A slim, impeccably controlled story that contains multitudes' - The Guardian Laura and Putnam have been friends for a long time. Theirs is a happy meeting of minds, with long evenings spent huddled in an ancient pub by the Thames, where they share office gossip, reflect on their teenage passions, and lament the state of the world. Recently, though, Putnam has been harder to reach: he has lost his father, and the magazine to which he has dedicated his life has been hijacked by an insufferable new editor, Simon 'call me Shove' Halfpenny. Laura has her own problems: with a prickly mother and a tricky past, and in a beautiful and indifferent city, her day-to-day life is precarious. But as Putnam starts to sink into despondency, she must try to bring him back. The Palm House offers us Gwendoline Riley's trademark keen observation and wit, and leaves us - somehow - with a curious sense of possibility. It is a slender masterpiece from one of Britain's finest prose stylists. 'I love this book' - Sarah Perry, award-winning author of The Essex Serpent 'Outstandingly brilliant' - Claire-Louise Bennett, award-winning author of Big Kiss, Bye-Bye 'Riley's prose is so electric, so alive with humour and insight and passion, that by the end you will want to stand up and cheer' - Paul Murray, author of The Bee Sting Named a Most Anticipated Book for 2026 by: Financial Times, The Times, The Observer, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Sunday Times, New Statesman, Good Housekeeping, Country & Town House, Shortlist, The New York Times, Irish Times, Vulture, LitHub and BBC Culture.
