Förlagets information

The world of 1930ss Berlin becomes a lethal game of survival for two women consumed by desire and art, in a blisteringly passionate and defiant story of resistance.

'Gripping, gorgeously written . . . I couldn't put it down' - Joanna Quinn, author of The Whalebone Theatre

'This vivid novel of 1930s Berlin asks what it means to make art in an emergency' - Eleanor Catton, author of Birnam Wood


Berlin, 1928. Hannah is new to the pleasures and freedoms of the city. She is a fledgling artist, a runaway, building a new life for herself in its galleries and clubs, and, at last, loving without boundaries.

But soon the party will be coming to an end. A consuming affair with her patron, Elke - the imperious wife of a powerful man - is reckless, yet life-changing, and it threatens to do more than ruin both of their reputations. Around them, people are disappearing. The shadows of something unspeakable are growing darker in the city. Hannah's art could be the thing that secures her survival - or denies her any chance of escape.

Blisteringly passionate, Venus, Vanishing by Rebecca Birrell is a page-turning debut novel of desire, art, and the stories lost to the darkness of history.

'A radiant vision of art against evil . . . a bold, moving novel' - Megan Hunter, author of Days of Light
