From Rupi Kaur, the top ten Sunday Times bestselling author of milk and honey, comes her long-awaited second collection of poetry. Illustrated by Kaur, the sun and her flowers is a journey of wilting, falling, rooting, rising and blooming. It is a celebration of love in all its forms.
this is the recipe of life
said my mother
as she held me in her arms as i wept
think of those flowers you plant
in the garden each year
they will teach you
that people too
must wilt
fall
root
rise
in order to bloom

Pride and Prejudice and the City
From the New York Times bestselling coauthor of Five Feet Apart and She Gets the Girl comes a fresh and inventive sapphic romantic comedy that's What If It's Us meets Bridgerton. What if you found a once-in-a-lifetime love...just not in your lifetime? Seventeen-year-old Audrey Cameron has lost her spark. After an embarrassing run-in with her ex-boyfriend, she's told that she needs to get back out there and take risks.
What she doesn't expect is to be transported to Regency England! Lucy Sinclair has her own problems - stifled by her father and trying to avoid an unwanted marriage proposal - when Audrey lands into her life, claiming to be from two hundred years in the future, it's a welcome distraction. While the girls try to understand what's happening and how to send Audrey home, their sparks make a comeback in a most unexpected way - instead of falling for their suitors and the happily-ever-afters everyone expects of them, they fall for each other. Can their love story survive impossible circumstances? A swoony time-travelling YA romance set in the regency era about finding your spark - a lesbian Jane Austen story.
Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is a novella written by the Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson and first published in 1886. It is about a London lawyer who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll, and the misanthropic Edward Hyde. The work is known for its vivid portrayal of a split personality, split in the sense that within the same person there is both an apparently good and an evil personality each being quite distinct from each other; in mainstream culture the very phrase "Jekyll and Hyde" has come to mean a person who is vastly different in moral character from one situation to the next. This is different from multiple personality disorder where the different personalities do not necessarily differ in any moral sense. Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde was an immediate success and one of Stevenson's best-selling works. Stage adaptations began in Boston and London within a year of its publication and it has gone on to inspire scores of major film and stage performances.

Nick and Charlie
A short novella based on the beloved characters from the graphic novel Heartstopper and Alice Oseman's debut novel Solitaire, which was praised as 'The Catcher in the Rye for the digital age' by The Times.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?
CHARLIE: "I have been going out with Nick Nelson for two years. He likes rugby, Formula 1, dogs, the Marvel universe, the sound felt-tips make on paper, rain and drawing on shoes. He also likes me."
NICK: "Things me and Charlie Spring do together include: Watch films. Sit in the same room on different laptops. Text each other from different rooms. Make out. Make food. Make drinks. Get drunk. Talk. Argue. Laugh. Maybe we're kind of boring. But that's fine with us."
Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are the perfect couple - that they're inseparable. But now Nick is leaving for university, and Charlie will be left behind at Sixth Form. Everyone's asking if they're staying together, which is a stupid question - they're 'Nick and Charlie' for God's sake!
But as the time to say goodbye gets inevitably closer, both Nick and Charlie question whether their love is strong enough to survive being apart. Or are they delaying the inevitable? Because everyone knows that first loves rarely last forever...

Cradle of Filth je anglická extrémna metalová skupina, ktorá vznikla v Suffolku v roku 1991. Hudobný štýl kapely sa pôvodne vyvinul z black metalu na čistejší a „vyrobenejší“ amalgám gothic metalu, symfonického metalu a iných metalových žánrov. Ich lyrické témy a obrazy sú výrazne ovplyvnené gotickou literatúrou, poéziou, mytológiou a hororovými filmami. Kapelu tvoria jej zakladajúci člen, spevák Dani Filth, bubeník Martin 'Marthus' Škaroupka, basgitarista Daniel Firth, gitaristi Marek 'Ashok' Šmerda a Donny Burbage a klávesistka Zoe Marie Federoff.
„Hammer of the Witches“ je jedenásty štúdiový album vydaný 10. júla 2015 a je to ich prvé vydanie pod vydavateľstvom Nuclear Blast. Hammer of the Witches predstavuje novú zostavu kapely po odchode Paula Allendera a Jamesa McIlroya, v ktorej sú noví gitaristi Marek 'Ashok' Šmerda a Richard Shaw a nová klávesistka a speváčka Lindsay Schoolcraft.

Modern Buildings in Britain
The definitive illustrated guide to modern British architecture, from one of the most acclaimed critics at work today
Modernism is now a century old, and its consequences are all around us, built into our everyday lived environments. Its place in Britain's history is fiercely contested, and its role in our future is the subject of ongoing controversy - but modernist buildings have undoubtedly changed our cities, politics and identity forever.
In Modern Buildings in Britain, Owen Hatherley applauds the ambition and explores the significance of this most divisive of architectures, travelling from Aberystwyth to Aberdeen, from St Ives to Shetland, in search of our most important and distinctive modern buildings. Drawing on hundreds of examples, we learn how the concrete of Brutalism embodies post-war civic principles, how corporate values were expressed in the glass facades of the International Style, and why Ecomodernist experimentation is often consigned to the geographic fringes. As Hatherley considers the social, political and cultural value of these structures - a number of which are threatened by demolition - two linked questions emerge: what happens to a building after it has been lived in, and what becomes of an idea when its time has passed?
With more than six hundred pages of trenchantly opinionated, often witty analysis, and with three hundred photographs in duotone and colour, Modern Buildings in Britain is a landmark contribution to the history of British architecture.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

Christine And The Queens - Paranoia, Angels, True Love LP
Héloise Adélaide Letissier profesionálne známy ako „Christine and the Queens“ a „Redcar“, alebo jednoducho „Chris“, je francúzsky spevák a skladateľ. Narodil sa a vyrastal v Nantes, ako štvorročný sa začal učiť hru na klavíri a počas štúdia našiel inšpiráciu v jednom z londýnskych klubov. Jeho debutový štúdiový album „Chaleur humaine“ (2014) získal uznanie kritiky, dostal sa na 2. miesto vo francúzskom aj britskom rebríčku a vo Francúzsku bol certifikovaný ako diamantový; bola to tiež najpredávanejšia debutová nahrávka v Spojenom kráľovstve. V roku 2018 vydal svoj druhý štúdiový album „Chris“, ktorý si získal ďalšie uznanie u kritikov. Clash, The Guardian a The Independent ho označili za album roka a umiestnili sa v prvej desiatke z deviatich ďalších koncoročných zoznamov. Skladbu „Girlfriend“ ocenil časopis Time ako pieseň roka. V reakcii na smrť svojej matky vydal Letissier v roku 2020 EP“La vita nuova“, pričom niektorí kritici ho označili za jeho doteraz najsilnejšie dielo. „PARANOIA, ANGELS, TRUE LOVE“ je napísaný, nahraný a produkovaný Christine and the Queens, s koprodukciou Mikea Deana (Lana Del Rey, Beyonce) s hosťami ako 070 Shake a Madonna.
