My Friends
The beautiful new novel that will make you laugh and cry, from the global bestselling author of Anxious People and A Man Called Ove. Fredrik Backman returns with an unforgettably funny, deeply moving tale of four teenagers whose friendship creates a bond so powerful that it changes a complete stranger’s life twenty-five years later…
You have to take life for granted, the artist thinks, the whole thing: sunrises and slow Sunday mornings and
water balloons and another person’s breath against your neck. That’s the only courageous thing a person can do.
In the corner of one of the most famous paintings in the world three tiny figures sit at the end of a pier. Most people don’t even notice them. Most people think it’s just a depiction of the sea. But Louisa, an aspiring artist herself, knows otherwise.
Twenty-five years earlier, in a distant seaside town, a group of teenagers seek refuge from their bruising home lives by spending long summer days together. They tell jokes, they share secrets, and they commit small acts of rebellion. These lost souls find in each other a reason to get up each morning, a reason to dream, a reason to love.
Out of that summer emerges a transcendent work of art, a painting that will unexpectedly be placed into 18-year-old Louisa’s care. Determined to learn how it came to be and to decide what to do with it, Louisa embarks on a cross-country journey. But the closer she gets to the painting’s birthplace, the more nervous she becomes.
In this stunning testament to the transformative, timeless power of friendship and art, Louisa is proof that happy endings don’t always take the form we expect.
Nagasaki 1945
Doktor Takaši Nagai z Nagasaki (1908–1951) je dnes ve světě vnímaný jako Gándhí Japonska. Léta se věnoval výzkumu radiologie, a to i přes riziko, že může onemocnět leukémií. Koncem 2. světové války byla na Nagasaki svržena atomová puma a on v mžiku přišel téměř o všechno: celá čtvrť lehla popelem, během několika vteřin zahynuly tisíce lidí včetně jeho milované manželky Midori, z katedrály i z jejich domu zbyla jen hromada sutin. V troskách byla i nemocnice, shořely všechny jeho výzkumy... On sám s dvěma dětmi výbuch přežil a spolu s několika kolegy pak pomáhali ošetřovat raněné. Kvůli nemoci z ozáření věděl, že nebude dlouho žít, přesto však ve zbývajících letech dodával ve své chatrči naději mnoha lidem, kteří za ním přijížděli z celého Japonska i ze zahraničí.
V Římě už probíhá proces jeho blahořečení
Politics and the Economy
In today's societies, political and economic issues are closely intertwined, and political philosophy has turned more and more to economic issues. This Element introduces some key questions of economic philosophy: How to think about the relation between political and economic power? Can markets be 'tamed'? Which values are embedded in the economy and how do those relate to political values? It answers these questions by considering arguments from three theoretical perspectives – liberal egalitarian approaches, neorepublicanism, and critical theory or socialist thought – explaining their different background assumptions but also shared grounds. To illustrate these topics, it zooms in on the future of work: How could work be made more just, democratic, and sustainable? In the conclusion, some implications for research strategies in economic philosophy are explored.

Mrs Hudson and the Belladonna Inheritance
London is sweltering and housemaid Flotsam longs for a break from the oppressive heat, although housekeeper Mrs Hudson remains unruffled. However, Baker Street is about to be consumed by an extremely weighty matter: the last Will and Testament of armaments tycoon Charles Belladonna. Belladonna left his considerable fortune to an only son who went missing, stolen from his cot, years before. Now not one but seven young men appear, each claiming to be the long-lost heir. The tangled case draws the War Office's attention, and a demand for Mr Sherlock Holmes's assistance. Only the razor-sharp minds above and below stairs at Baker Street stand a chance of uncovering the truth and foiling the sinister forces at work. For readers who treasure Conan Doyle, the Holmes & Hudson series offers a loving homage, enriched by fresh voices in the Holmes and Watson household.

Perspectives
*SHORTLISTED FOR THE DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD 2026*'There is no living writer whose new books I fall on with greater delight than Laurent Binet. . . Perspectives is a proper treat' Naomi Alderman'A dazzling romp' GuardianFlorence,1557. As dawn breaks, a painter is discovered lying on the floor of a church, stabbed through the heart. Above him, the paintings he laboured over for more than a decade. At his home, a hidden portrait scandalously depicting Maria de Medici, daughter of the Duke of Florence, as a naked Venus. Who is the murderer? Who made the painting? As the city erupts in chaos, Giorgio Vasari, the great art historian, is picked to lead the investigation. Letters fly back and forth carrying news of plots and speculation about the killer’s identity – between Maria and her aunt Catherine de’ Medici, the queen of France; between Catherine and her secret agents; and between Vasari and his friend Michelangelo. And the truth, when it comes to light, is as shocking as the bold new artworks that have made Florence the red-hot centre of Europe. Bursting with characters and colour, Perspectives is a mystery like no other that shows us Renaissance Florence as we’ve never seen it before – a dazzling, hugely entertaining novel of court machinations, murder and art.

'Persis Wadia, denizen of India's own Slough House - Malabar House in Bombay - has been further sidelined. She is far from Bombay in the remote Naga Hills, an area of rebels and lawlessness which may just swallow her whole. Persis is a brilliant creation ... With a satisfying backdrop of little-known aspects of newly independent India's history and the ever-present tension with the remaining British colonists, this is a richly satisfying book at many levels' ALIS HAWKINS

A Boy's Own Story
A Boy's Own Story traces an unnamed narrator's coming-of-age during the 1950s.

The result is a book of exquisite poignancy and humour that moves towards a conclusion which will allow the boy to leave behind his childhood forever.

Salinger with Oscar Wilde, to create an extraordinary novel' – New York TimesPart of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature.
