The Truths and Triumphs of Grace Atherton
'Glorious on so many levels' A J Pearce, author of Dear Mrs Bird
'Full of hope and charm' Libby Page, author of The Lido
'A hymn to friendship, to getting back up and finding happiness where none seemed possible' Katie Fforde
`An indulgently emotional and beautifully written story about new starts' Daily Mail
The Truths and Triumphs of Grace Atherton is the story of a woman who has her heart broken, but then puts it back together again in the most uplifting and exquisite way.
Between the simple melody of running her violin shop and the full-blown orchestra of her romantic interludes in Paris with David, her devoted partner of eight years, Grace Atherton has always set her life to music.
Her world revolves entirely around David, for Grace's own secrets have kept everyone else at bay. Until, suddenly and shockingly, one act tips Grace's life upside down, and the music seems to stop.
It takes a vivacious old man and a straight-talking teenager to kickstart a new chapter for Grace. In the process, she learns that she is not as alone in the world as she had once thought, that no mistake is insurmountable, and that the quiet moments in life can be something to shout about ...

'I adored this book! Exquisitely crafted, it's a compassionate, heart-wrenching and ultimately uplifting tale of Grace and David's complicated love that will keep you turning the pages. Read it. Like some of Grace's decisions, it's an absolute triumph' Fionnuala Kearney

Fantasy Worlds
One day, Ferdinand Cheval, a French postman, came across a stone at Hauterives near Lyon, and was fascinated by its strange, evocative shape. He spent the next three decades collecting stones, shells, and fossils, and used them to build the Palais id
éal. Chevals palace is one of many works of architectural fantasy in this book, the result of over 20 years research by celebrated architectural photographer Deidi von Schaewen. Like Cheval, the creators of these extraordinary worlds simply started
building, with no rules to guide them and, in most cases, no previous artistic experience. These fantasy palaces, bizarre sanctuaries, and colorful sculpture gardens seldom follow a plan. Often the artists continued building for many years, sometime
s until their dying day. Their work is impossible to categorize: Art brut, architecture without architects, self-taught art, fantasy architecture in the tradition of Piranesi, non-academic architecture, Outsider Art none of these definitions quite
encapsulates this worldwide phenomenon. Eccentric hideaways like the Tour de lApocalypse in Belgium, the Junkerhaus at Lemgo or the Owl House in South Africa appear alongside Simon Rodias Watts Towers, which dominate the cityscape of Los Angeles. T
o venture into this world is to immerse oneself in the collective unconscious.

Pirelli - The Calendar. 50 Years And More
The notoriously exclusive Pirelli Calendar, featuring glamorous shots of beautiful women, was first published in 1964. Reserved for important clients and VIPs, the calendar has since grown into a legend of its own, showcasing the beauty of models such as Alessandra Ambrosio, Gisele Bundchen, Naomi Campbell, Laetitia Casta, Cindy Crawford. Penelope Cruz, Milla Jovovich, Heidi Klum, Angela Lindvall, Sophia Loren, and Kate Moss. In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the now-legendary institution that is the Pirelli Calendar, TASCHEN brings you a retrospective volume reproducing the complete calendars, photographed by Richard Avedon, Peter Beard, Patrick Demarchelier, Nick Knight, Karl Lagerfeld, Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, Annie Leibovitz, Peter Lindbergh, Sarah Moon, Terry Richardson. Herb Ritts, Mario Sorrenti, Bert Stern, Mario Testino, Bruce Weber, and many more. Bonus features include rarely and never-before-seen behind-the-scenes images of the shoots, the unpublished 1963 calendar, and a selection of "censored" images deemed too risque by the editors of the time. Finally, the canceled 1986 Helmut Newton calendar will be revealed.With an introduction by Philippe Daverio and an interview with art directors Derek Forsyth and Martyn Walsh. The Pirelli Calendar was a marketing revelation when it debuted in the l960s-it took a familiar, even throwaway concept (the pin-up "garage calendar") and infused it with top fashion models, photographers, and the most desirable locations in the world. To this day it has retained its ability to fascinate and titillate all those who are fortunate enough to obtain a copy. This resplendent volume, for fans new and old alike, is the biggest and baddest ever devoted to the subject.

In Five Years
'SMART, EMOTIONAL, INTRIGUING AND COMPELLING - I LOVED IT!' JILL MANSELL
'Full of twists and turns, this is a heart-breaking yet uplifting story about love and friendship, and is one of this year's must-reads' Heat magazine *****
Perfect for fans of Me Before You and One Day, this heart-breaking story of love, loss and life will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about destiny...
Where do you see yourself in five years?
Type-A Manhattan lawyer Dannie Kohan has been in possession of her meticulously crafted answer since she understood the question. On the day that she nails the most important job interview of her career and gets engaged to the perfect man, she's well on her way to fulfilling her life goals.
That night Dannie falls asleep only to wake up in a different apartment with a different ring on her finger, and in the company of a very different man. The TV is on in the background, and she can just make out the date. It's the same night - December 15th - but 2025, five years in the future.
It was just a dream, she tells herself when she wakes, but it felt so real... Determined to ignore the odd experience, she files it away in the back of her mind.
That is, until four and a half years later, when Dannie turns down a street and there, standing on the corner, is the man from her dream...
In Five Years is a love story, brimming with joy and heartbreak. But it is definitely not the love story you're expecting.

Women in Clothes
Women in Clothes is a book unlike any other. It is essentially a conversation among hundreds of women of all nationalities-famous, anonymous, religious, secular, married, single, young, old-on the subject of clothing, and how the garments we put on every day define and shape our lives. It began with a survey. The editors composed a list of more than fifty questions designed to prompt women to think more deeply about their personal style. Writers, activists, and artists including Cindy Sherman, Kim Gordon, Kalpona Akter, Sarah Nicole Prickett, Tavi Gevinson, Miranda July, Roxane Gay, Lena Dunham, and Molly Ringwald answered these questions with photographs, interviews, personal testimonies, and illustrations. Even our most basic clothing choices can give us confidence, show the connection between our appearance and our habits of mind, express our values and our politics, bond us with our friends, and function as armor or disguise. They are the tools we use to reinvent ourselves and to transform how others see us.Women in Clothes embraces the complexity of women's style decisions, revealing the sometimes funny, sometimes strange, always thoughtful impulses that influence our daily ritual of getting dressed. Sheila Heti is the author of five books, including the critically acclaimed How Should a Person Be?. She writes regularly for the London Review of Books and is an editor and interviewer at The Believer. Heidi Julavits is the author of four novels, most recently The Vanishers, winner of the PEN/New England Fiction Award. She is a founding editor of The Believer magazine and an associate professor at Columbia University. Leanne Shapton is an illustrator, author and publisher based in New York City. She is the author of Important Artifacts and Swimming Studies, and winner of the 2012 National Book Critic's Circle Award for autobiography.

Enter the Aardvark - 'Achingly funny' GUARDIAN
'It's a long time since I have enjoyed a novel so much. Fresh, witty and smart it also has a heart. What more could you want? And who would have thought that you could become emotionally attached to a stuffed aardvark?' KATE ATKINSON
Only one thing stands between Alexander Paine Wilson and his destiny... and it has long ears, spoon-like claws and a tubular snout...
Republican congressman Alexander Paine Wilson is determined that nothing will stop him in his campaign for re-election. Not the fact that he is a bachelor, not the fact that his main adversary Nancy Beavers - married, with children - is rising in the polls. Nothing. That is, until one hot day in August, he receives a large parcel via FedEx. Inside is a gigantic taxidermied aardvark.
This aardvark has a surprising history - from the Victorian naturalist who discovered it to the taxidermist who deemed it his finest creation. But for Wilson, the entrance of the aardvark sets off a chain of events that threaten to ruin his entire career.
Constantly surprising, brilliantly comic and piquantly provocative, Enter the Aardvark is a tale for our times, a biting satire with a tender underbelly.
'Enter Jessica Anthony. With her highly inventive, ever attentive, and morally serious (as all great comedy must be) Enter the Aardvark, she estranges all over again our deplorable political moment, and thereby helps make it bearable.' JOSHUA FERRIS, author of THEN WE CAME TO THE END
'Mischievously zoological and darkly satirical - a brilliant novel' JOHN IRONMONGER, author of NOT FORGETTING THE WHALE
'I've been waiting a long time for a book like Jessica Anthony's Enter the Aardvark, a book that not only manages to bridge supposedly unbridgeable divides in politics, in time, in geography, in love and sex, but also manages to do so by way of a time-traveling taxidermied aardvark. If that sounds unlikely, well, yes, exactly, that's why I've been waiting for so long for it-this unlikely, hilarious, moving, ingenious book. Enter the Aardvark is an absolute original.' BROCK CLARKE, author of WHO ARE YOU, CALVIN BLEDSOE?
'A feverish, rollicking beast of a book. Totally assured, completely unpredictable, Jessica Anthony has created a true original.' SIMON WROE, author of CHOP CHOP and HERE COMES TROUBLE
'Enter the Aardvark is one wild ride: a condemnation, a haunting, a song of love, a madcap political thriller-and it is absolutely unputdownable.' LAURA VAN DEN BERG, author of THE THIRD HOTEL
'Jessica Anthony is a writer possessed of mind-bending talents.' HEIDI JULAVITS, author of THE FOLDED CLOCK
"Inventive and darkly funny...as Anthony connects characters from today with those from 19th-century England, she offers an original and unsettling lens through which to view male power as it has evolved over time."?TIME
"A wild ride and might just be the perfect antidote to the wild ride we're in in real life." - ELECTRIC LIT
"Weird, wonderful, and very much of the moment, Enter the Aardvark is a landmark political novel of the Trump era...With heart and humor, Anthony expertly skewers our current political climate."?ESQUIRE
"This book is batshit insane and I love it. What do a closeted gay Republican congressman who's obsessed with Ronald Reagan have in common with a taxidermist in 19th-century England? Answer: an aardvark. And also much more, but I'll let you discover the rest for yourself."? LIT-HUB
"A blisteringly innovative and outrageous novel...If you're searching for a sharp, looking-glass view into the far end of contemporary politics, look no further. Jessica Anthony's novel has the pacing of a thriller with satirical verve of Nathanael West."?NY OBSERVER
"A wholly original, entertaining, history-infused, and politically engaged novel." BOOKLIST
"Anthony stitches together stories from repressive Victorian England and venal contemporary American politics in this marvelous, tragic farce. . . . This idiosyncratic satire is full of wonders and warnings." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"Weirdly compelling and compellingly weird." - KIRKUS

Bountiful
There has been an explosion in recent years of food blogs, and therefore a sharp rise of cookbooks being developed from those blogs. Bloggers like Deb Perleman of Smitten Kitchen, Heidi Swanson of 101 Cookbooks, and Shauna Ahern of Gluten Free Girl and the Chef have all found great success translating their blogs into cookbook form. Todd Porter and Diane Cu of the popular food blog White on Rice Couple are in this company. Approached many times over the years by other publishers to do a book, they have turned them all politely down, insisting they weren't ready yet to tackle the project. They are ready now and we are thrilled to be their publisher. White on Rice Couple is a highly successful cooking and photography blog run by Todd Porter and Diane Cu. The name of the blog comes from their multicultural differences (Todd is from a cattle ranch in North Eastern Oregon and Diane escaped to the United States with her family from Vietnam via a refugee camp in Guam). They started the blog in 2008 and it commands a large presence on the web with almost 500K unique views a month. They are professional photographers and stylists and have photographed and styled many cookbooks together, but this will be the first time they are the source behind the 175 seasonal recipes. Using vegetables and fruit as the star of the show, this cookbook will be chock full of fresh ideas for healthy eating with an emphasis on local and organic as well as some Asian flavours. Peppered with their own personal stories and insights and wisdom drawn from years of solid partnership through photography and cooking as well as a beautiful love story, this book will be the ultimate gift for their fans and anyone looking for an introduction to this incredible couple. Media and other blogger friends will come out in droves to support this book.

Juergen Teller

Outtakes of iconic shoots (including infamous ones with Courtney Love, Cindy Sherman, Marc Jacobs, Victoria Beckham, and Bjork) that have never been published will be included in this volume. Teller first broke into fashion in 1996 with a magazine cover of a naked Kristen McMenamy with the word Versace scrawled across her chest. Since then, his fashion photography has been featured in all the international Vogues, AnOther Magazine, Index, Self-Service, W, Details, Purple, i-D, and 032c, among others. A highly sought-after cult hero and the author of many iconic campaigns, Teller has collaborated with the likes of Helmut Lang, Raf Simons, Hedi Slimane, Nicolas Ghesquiere, Phoebe Philo, Vivienne Westwood, Miuccia Prada, and Isabel Marant, and shot every season of Marc Jacobs s ready-to-wear collections from 1998 to 2014.

Járgányfalvi mesék
Járgányfalván zajlik ám az élet! A lakók élik mindennapjaikat, örömeik és bánataik pedig megegyeznek az emberekével. Csakhogy ők autók, pontosabban járgányok. A kisautók ugyanúgy viselkednek, mint az embergyerekek: a legkisebbek szorgalmasan látogatják a járgányovit, a nagyobbak pedig a járgánysulit. Rácsodálkoznak az élet dolgaira, szeretnek játszani, mókázni, és bizony-bizony néha rosszalkodni is.
Tartsatok velünk, és ismerjétek meg Járgány Janó, Bogár Hédi, Dömper Döme, Dzsip Dzsoni és barátaik kalandos és kedves történeteit!

Fényűzés
A Fényűző otthonok új szemszögből tekint a modern lakásban felbukkanó glamour világára. A kötetben felvonultatott nevek listája nem lebecsülendő: jártunk Pierre Cardinnél Cannes-ban, Todd Hasé apartmanjában Manhattanben és Kelly Hoppén otthonában Londonban, de bekukkantottunk a párizsi Comme des Garcons üzletbe, és a Báli szigetén található Főúr Seasons hotelbe is, A könyv sorra veszi és behatóan elemzi a glaour valamennyi irányzatát; az évhajhászt, az időtlent, az egzotikust, az eklektikust és a higgadtat. Deidi von Schaewen kitűnő fotóinak köszönhetően vaódi műremek született, amely fennen hirdeti és ünnepli korunk ragyogó és fényűző enteriőrjeinek stílusát.
