Albion is a beautifully woven novel that explores the quiet power of memory, grief, and connection across generations. Anna Hope's lyrical prose brings both the characters and the landscape to life, creating a story that feels deeply intimate yet universally resonant. This book lingers long after the final page, leaving you reflecting on the ties that bind us to place and to each other.

A sneakily solid read. Family drama encased in masterful writing. Took a few chapters for me to find my footing but I ended up fully immersed in the lives of these privileged, damaged siblings.

Look for this beautiful book in June! Thank you @harpercollins for the galley.

Frannie, Milo and Isabella- despite (or because of) having grown up on an English countryside estate that’s been in their family for seven generations, these grown siblings find themselves grappling to make sense of their individual relationships with their recently deceased father. Distant and cold until the end of his life, Phillip bequeathed his entire estate to his oldest daughter with whom he shared a vision for the health of the land and the planet. But Frannie’s not sure she’s up to the challenge. Enter Clara, the American daughter of Phillip’s long-time affair…and step-sibling of his children? Either way, Clara feels it her duty to disclose her findings on this family’s dark past.
