    "Patrick Hamilton may be best known now for the plays Rope and Gaslight and for the classic Alfred Hitchcock and George Cukor movies they inspired, but in his heyday he was no less famous for his brooding tales of London life [...] Twenty Thousand Streets Under the Sky is a tale of obsession and betrayal that centers on a seedy pub in a run-down part of London. Bob the waiter skimps and saves and fantasizes about writing a novel, until he falls for the pretty prostitute Jenny and blows it all. Kindly Ella, Bob's co-worker, adores Bob, but is condemned to enjoy nothing more than the attentions of the insufferable Mr. Eccles; Jenny, out on the street, is out of love, hope, and money. We watch with pity and horror as these three vulnerable and yet compellingly ordinary people meet and play out bitter comedies of longing and frustration." -- Book cover.

    'Madinah' - the Arabic word for 'city' - may conjure labyrinthine streets and the hustle and bustle of the souq in Westerners' minds, but for the inhabitants of the Middle East it is a much more mercurial thing, and one that's changing today faster than ever.Here - in ten urban stories set across the region - the city reveals itself through a vibrant array of characters: from the celebrated author collecting an award in the city that exiled him decades before, to the forlorn lover waiting at a rendezvous as government officials raid nearby shops, confiscating 'wanton' Valentine's Day roses.Whilst engineers race to complete another 'world's tallest building' in Dubai, and American helicopters patrol the Martyrs Bridge in Baghdad, we realise it is the people, and not the landmarks, that define these places; like the language student in Beirut who tries to make a joke of being 'war-broken' to her friends, or the Israeli General who invites guests to his office to watch promo videos for the tank that will 'win the next war' whilst eating biscuits and reciting poetry.For all we think we know of the conflict and exoticism of the region, nothing opens more doors to what we don't than its writing. Here, ten short stories by new and established writers have been selected and translated in English for the first time, to open just such a door

    Five people. Five journeys. One destination. Thrust together on a crowded city bus, week after week, the lives of five strangers unfold unexpectedly over the course of this compelling novel. James is a teenage junkie on the run, riding buses for kicks; Pauline is a Greek widow and a slave to her nine-to-five life; William is a spoilt-rich-kid banker who would rather be driving his silver Audi; Pieter is an immigrant cellist who escaped his past, but tragedy still haunts him; and Anna is on the verge of leaving her accountant husband. They all share the same bus route but are on very different
