The Essence of Ferrari
Few marques command the same reverence as Ferrari — a symbol of Italian artistry, innovation, and unrelenting pursuit of excellence. Since Enzo Ferrari founded the brand in 1947, the Prancing Horse has stood not just for performance, but for a way of life defined by style, emotion, and craftsmanship. The Essence of Ferrari Unfolded celebrates this spirit in all its forms — from the sculpted curves of the 250 GTO and LaFerrari to the precision engineering that turns mechanical movement into poetry. Through breathtaking photography and insightful storytelling, the book explores the DNA of Ferrari: design, speed, sound, and the people who live for them. It delves into the creative worlds of designers, drivers, engineers, and dreamers, capturing how Ferrari continues to merge technology and beauty in perfect harmony. Beyond the racetrack, the book unfolds Ferrari’s cultural impact — from haute couture collaborations and architectural icons to its influence on film, art, and design.

Animal Stories
A curious exploration of mortality, alienation, boredom, surveillance and how we regard ourselves among the animals. ‘Few human animals have Zambreno’s baleful honesty, insight, or relish for comedy, when they look at themselves’ Daisy Hildyard, author of Hunters in the Snow and EmergencyAnimal Stories begins with Kate Zambreno’s visit to the monkey house at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris, where one stark tree ‘seems to be the stage design for a simian production of Waiting for Godot’. But who are the players and who is the audience, and can they recognise each othe? hat follows is a series of reports from the deep strangeness of the zoo, a space that is ‘more often than not deeply sad, an odd choice for regular pilgrimages of fun’. Amid these excursions with their young children, Zambreno turns to Garry Winogrand’s photographs and John Berger’s writings on animals, reshaping the spectator as the subject to decipher our complex ‘zoo feelings’ – what we project, and what we refuse to see. In ‘My Kafka System’, which dovetails with these zoo studies, Zambreno thinks through the notebooks and animal stories of a writer known for playing at the threshold between species, continuing their investigation into the false divide between human and animal. In writing that is inquisitive and inventive, Zambreno renders visible the enclosures we construct and those we occupy ourselves.
