Description

  • Charles Lambert was shortlisted for the Polari Prize for LGBTQ+ writing in 2018
  • A delicious gothic novel: Like Starveacre by Andrew Michael Hurley, or The Harpy by Megan Hunter, The Bone Flower has unsettling supernatural elements woven into a fiercely human story about love, guilt and betrayal.
  • Under 70,000 words: A little gem of a novel, perfect for busy readers wanting to pick up a spooky Gothic read without diving into a chunky classic.
  • Charles Lambert has a literary fan base including Women’s Prize shortlisted Jenny Offill, and Steven King’s son Owen.
  • Published by Gallic Books: the UK publisher of Edward Carey who wrote the acclaimed Gothic novels Little and The Swallowed Man.
  • Another novel from Charles Lambert will be published in Spring 23: Birthright is a very different novel, a gripping psychological thriller, with the same dark tone and sublime style. With two titles from Lambert coming out in consecutive seasons, we will focus on long marketing campaign for the two titles, boosting sales for both.
