The Jealousy Man and Other Stories
Filled with dark thrills, twisted minds and vengeful hearts, these twelve page-turning short stories from 'the king of Scandicrime' (FT) and creator of the iconic detective Harry Hole, will have you reading late into the night.
We meet a Greek detective who has become an expert on jealousy thanks to some hard-earned lessons from his private life. Far away, in another country, a taxi driver finds his wife's earring in a car belonging to his boss and sets out to discover how it ended up there. High in the skies above, a woman is on board a plane headed to London, about to end her own life in the wake of her husband's affair with her best friend. But who is the man sitting next to her?
Nesbo also takes us to the near future, to a dystopian America, where the upper-class elite is waiting atop a skyscraper to be evacuated while the masses fight for survival in the streets below. We are introduced to two best friends on their way to the running of the bulls in Pamplona when they fall in love with the same girl and, in the epic and vicious finale, we meet a psychologist who also happens to be an assassin.
In his first ever collection of short stories, this master of crime writing skilfully draws in the reader as we watch the potentially fatal outcomes of humanity's most powerful emotions play out on the page.

The extraordinary story of the rise and fall and rise again of Tyson Fury...
THE GYPSY KING.
A Manchester lad from Irish Traveller stock, born three months premature and weighing just a pound at birth, Tyson (named after his father's boxing hero) grew up to become one of the most unlikely heavyweight champions in history. This 'dream come true' soon turned to nightmare, however, as alcohol and cocaine abuse took hold and Tyson was stripped of his titles. What followed was the darkest moment of his life - detailed in this book for the first time - in which he came within seconds of ending everything.
THE PEOPLE'S CHAMPION.
Like all the greatest stories, though, there is redemption and Tyson defies all the odds and literally drags himself to his feet. 10 million people around the globe watched Fury fight Wilder in the biggest fight of the boxing calendar. Speaking candidly about his struggles with mental health, this is Tyson Fury as you have never seen him before.
A BRITISH ICON.

How to Love a Jamaican
'In this thrilling debut collection Alexia Arthurs is all too easy to love.' - Zadie Smith
Tenderness and cruelty, loyalty and betrayal, ambition and regret - these are the tensions at the heart of Alexia Arthurs' debut book about Jamaican immigrants and their families back home. Some stories ask big questions about the things that define a person, others explode small moments of deep significance and lasting effect. Sweeping from close-knit island communities to the streets of New York City, How to Love a Jamaican offers a portrait of a nation, a people, and a way of life.
Vibrant, lyrical and intimate, this collection of eleven short stories shows Alexia Arthurs to be one of the most dynamic and exciting young authors writing today. It includes the story `Bad Behavior', for which she won the Paris Review's Plimpton Prize.

How to Give Up Plastic
As read by James Corden, Fearne Cotton, Jim Chapman and Dougie Poytner.
'We have a responsibility, every one of us' David Attenborough
Around 12.7 million tonnes of plastic are entering the ocean every year, killing over 1 million seabirds and 100,000 marine mammals.
By 2050 there could be more plastic in the ocean than fish by weight.
Plastic pollution is the environmental scourge of our age, but how can YOU make a difference?
This accessible guide, written by the campaigner at the forefront of the anti-plastic movement, will help you make the small changes that make a big difference, from buying a reusable coffee cup to running a clean-up at your local park or beach. Tips on giving up plastic include:
* Washing your clothes within a wash bag to catch plastic microfibers (the cause of 30% of plastic pollution in the ocean)
* Replacing your regular shampoo with bar shampoo
* How to lobby your supermarket to remove unnecessary packaging
* How to throw a plastic-free birthday party
* How to convince others to join you in giving up plastic
Plastic is not going away without a fight. We need a movement made up of billions of individual acts, bringing people together from all backgrounds and all cultures, the ripples of which will be felt from the smallest village to the tallest skyscrapers. This is a call to arms - to join forces across the world and to end our dependence on plastic.

How Language Began
In his groundbreaking new book Daniel Everett seeks answers to questions that have perplexed thinkers from Plato to Chomsky: when and how did language begin? What is it? And what is it for?
Daniel Everett confounds the conventional wisdom that language originated with Homo sapiens 150,000 years ago and that we have a 'language instinct'. Drawing on evidence from a wide range of fields, including linguistics, archaeology, biology, anthropology and neuroscience, he shows that our ancient ancestors, Homo erectus, had the biological and mental equipment for speech one and half million years ago, and that their cultural and technological achievements (including building ocean-going boats) make it overwhelmingly likely they spoke some kind of language.
How Language Began sheds new light on language and culture and what it means to be human and, as always, Daniel Everett spices his account with incident and anecdote. His book is convincing, arresting and entertaining.

The Wall of Winnipeg and Me – Szívvel a falnak
Ha Mr. Darcy amerikai focizna...
Vanessa Mazur pontosan tudja, hogy helyesen cselekszik. Nem is érzi rosszul magát azért, mert felmondott. Asszisztensi/házvezetőnői/tündérkeresztmamai állását aszövetség legjobb védőjátékosa mellett mindig is átmenetinek szánta. Nagy tervei vannak, melyek között nem szerepelt az extra méretű alsógatyák mosása, legalábbis nem élete végéig.
Így amikor Aiden Graves bekopog az ajtaján, és azt kéri tőle, hogy jöjjön vissza hozzá, teljesen ledöbben.
A "winnipegi nagy fal"-ként ismert pasas két évig a köszönését sem fogadta, a születésnapjáról is megfeledkezett. Most pedig? Valami egészen elképesztő dologra akarja rávenni.
Mit válaszolhat az ember lánya annak a férfinak, aki megszokta, hogy mindig megszerzi, amit akar?
Hol a határ az ellenszenv és a szerelem között?
Tantrikusan izgalmas, hosszan bontakozó románc.
Éld át a tüzét!

Slovenská nová vlna - The Slovak New Wave
Výstavní a publikační projekt českého kurátora a slovenské kurátorky představuje osm autorů dlouhodobě tvořících v Praze nebo s tímto prostředím bezprostředně spjatých: Ruda Prekopa, Vasila Stanka, Tona Stana, Martina Štrbu, Mira Švolíka, Kamila Vargu, Petra Župníka a tragicky zesnulého Jana Pavlíka. Skupina „slovenských fotografů žijících v Čechách“ nebo „českých fotografů slovenského původu“ je jakýmsi společným kulturním statkem obou států a zajímavým fenoménem při zkoumání vztahů mezi českou a slovenskou fotografií. Katedra fotografie pražské Akademie múzických umění byla v sedmdesátých a osmdesátých letech jedinou vysokou školou s výukou fotografie ve střední Evropě. Je překvapivé, že generace Slovenské nové vlny zůstala prakticky nekontaminovaná tradicí české fotografie a na půdě pražské FAMU vyrostla jako osobitý solitér. Přesto, nebo možná právě proto, že nešlo o organizovanou skupinu s vytyčeným programem, jejich poměrně jednotný vizuální jazyk představoval jeden z prvních projevů fotografické postmoderny u nás. Cílem kurátorů bylo prozkoumat fenomén Slovenské nové vlny a jeho východiska s časovým odstupem téměř tří desetiletí. Osobitý důraz kladou kurátoři na díla, která nebyla ve své době představena vůbec nebo jen okrajově.

How to Be a Footballer
You become a footballer because you love football. And then you are a footballer, and you're suddenly in the strangest, most baffling world of all. A world where one team-mate comes to training in a bright red suit with matching top-hat, cane and glasses, without any actual glass in them, and another has so many sports cars they forget they have left a Porsche at the train station. Even when their surname is incorporated in the registration plate.
So walk with me into the dressing-room, to find out which players refuse to touch a football before a game, to discover why a load of millionaires never have any shower-gel, and to hear what Cristiano Ronaldo says when he looks at himself in the mirror.
We will go into post-match interviews, make fools of ourselves on social media and try to ensure that we never again pay GBP250 for a haircut that should have cost a tenner. We'll be coached and cajoled by Harry Redknapp, upset Rafa Benitez and be soothed by the sound of an accordion played by Sven-Goran Eriksson's assistant Tord Grip. There will be some very bad music and some very bad decisions.
I am Peter Crouch. This is How To Be A Footballer. Shall we?
