  In this talk I report recent results on hadronic B decays obtained with the
QCD factorization approach. In the first part I update the fit of the
Wolfenstein parameters (\bar\rho,\bar\eta) to CP-averaged B -> pi pi, pi K
branching fractions, and give the correlation between the time-dependent and
direct CP asymmetry in B_d -> pi^+pi^- decay. In the second part I present an
investigation of B decays into final states containing an eta or eta^\prime
meson. I discuss the new theoretical issues that arise for flavour singlet
mesons and present preliminary numerical results that appear to reproduce the
pattern of experimental data reasonably well.
