Dark Squares: A cult leader, a child prodigy and the chess revolution
Educated meets The Queen''s Gambit in this extraordinary memoir by International Master and Chess.com co-founder Danny Rensch, who describes his upbringing in an abusive cult - and how chess ended up saving his lifeBorn into the Church of Immortal Consciousness, Danny Rensch spent his childhood navigating the isolated confines of a cult. Despite psychological manipulation, physical abuse, and neglect, he persevered. An international chess master and world-class commentator, Rensch''s remarkable journey led him to being the face of Chess.com, one of the largest online gaming platforms in the world. With unflinching honesty, Rensch recounts his life, starting from the moment he discovered chess in the summer of 1995, all the way up to being at the center of the most explosive cheating scandal in chess history. He chronicles the traumas of being "special" in a cult that forced separation from his mother. Mentored by an alcoholic, Russian chess master, he found solace alongside suffering in his obsession for an ancient game, and chess became his only escape. Rensch rose through the chess ranks until a medical emergency nearly took him out of the game forever. And it almost did, until Chess.com came along. Deeply heartfelt, keenly reflective, and haunting, Dark Squares is the never-before-told story of Danny Rensch''s resilience, survival, and his enduring love for the game that saved him.
Chanel's War
A few days after Paris was liberated from the Nazis in August 1944, the most notorious fashion couturiere in the world collapsed on a hotel bed in Switzerland after escaping the French capitol and certain death. How did an exhausted Coco Chanel get there and who helped her evade warring Allied and German troops?For 80 years, this incredible feat of courage, luck, and ingenuity in the midst of immense danger has been deliberately shrouded in disinformation and secrecy by family, friends, wary governments, risk-averse business partners, and fellow collaborators. But now, with the aid of new information contained in previously unreleased private French Résistance papers and a new assessment of discredited evidence from organised crime figures, what really happened to Coco Chanel during that fascinating and scandalous period of her life between 1944 and 1954 can finally be revealed.
The Story of a Honeymoon in 1814
This book presents a social history based on archival material from three generations of the Caldcleugh, Lewis and Ancrum families and their friends’ journals, diaries, paintings and letters, from 1749 to 1898. The story unfolds with a honeymoon journal kept by Margaret, after her marriage to merchant Arthur Lewis, in Croydon, 1814. A detailed insight into travel through Regency Britain in a cramped landaulet carriage is unveiled as are their visits to historical, geological and industrial sites of interest such as Lancaster Cathedral, Peak Cavern (Devil’s Arse) and the Derby Silk Mill, revealing the places and people they meet. The couple’s family and friends are introduced in more detail and the emigration of Margaret’s father to America in 1768 is recorded, along with his two elder brothers who ended up on opposite sides in the American War of Independence. Follow Emily, Margaret’s youngest daughter, as she enters into an ‘arranged’ marriage with Dr Ancrum, surgeon superintendent of the British Naval Hospital, Valparaiso (1848–1857). Some of the events in this section are now commemorated by the issue of postage stamps by the Pitcairn Island Government of British Overseas Territories, using images from the book. In 1857 Emily returned to England with her small children on a voyage that was hazardous in the extreme. Ships that were hardly seaworthy, Yellow Fever sickness, and the possibility that she might die leaving her children in the hands of strangers – this was a harrowing story over which love ultimately triumphed. Such was the impact of Emily’s words on the author, that included in the book is an original score he composed for solo piano, to celebrate her resilience. This is a remarkable story and journey, beautifully constructed through painstaking research and which provides a wealth of supporting and fascinating information.
Deano
A local legend with a national cult-following, former Premier League striker Dean Windass tackles retirement and the challenges it brings. Going from 20,000 people singing your name, week in, week out, to nothing. Just silence. A silence which nearly killed him.Deano explains how football defined him. A terrier, a goalscorer, he played with a smile on his face during a career that took him north and south of the border with Aberdeen and Oxford United, Sheffield United and Wednesday, Middlesbrough and Bradford City. Popular wherever he played, his career is crystallised by one very special goal for his local club.Thousands of fans travelled from his hometown of Hull to Wembley and saw their hero score the L30m goal. Typical of Deano, it was no ordinary goal, but a stunning volley. It secured Hull City’s promotion to the top flight for the first time since. ‘Genuine Roy of The Rovers stuff'' said the BBC… but what happens at the end of a career spanning more than 800 games and 200 goals, once the boots are hung up and the phone stops ringing? That''s another challenge altogether.Highs, lows, drink, divorce, despair, collapse. And then reinvention, positive mental health and learning how to live again. "If it helps one more person than me, then I''m happy," says Deano, with that warmth and authenticity that won the hearts of fans at each of the clubs he represented. A proud and straight-talking Yorkshireman, he pulls no punches, to tell it all in Beyond the Final Whistle – and shows once the final whistle blows retirement from the game comes with its own wins and losses.
Stevie Smith
‘Confident and very readable . . . one of Frances Spalding’s achievements in this book is to display Stevie Smith’s frailties without destroying her dignity’ – Victoria Glendinning, Literary Review‘A careful, informative and worthwhile book’ – Hermione Lee, The Observer‘It is a biography of inner life. It is also a hymn to tenebrous suburbia, a book full of English oddness, and a lovely loamish read.’ – The TimesStevie Smith had a unique literary voice: her idiosyncratic, wonderfully funny and poignant poems established her as one of the most individual of English modern poets. She claimed her own life was ‘precious dull’, but Frances Spalding’s acclaimed biography reveals a far from conventional woman.While she lived in suburbia with her beloved ‘Lion Aunt’, Stevie Smith was from the early 1930s a vibrant figure on London’s intellectual and literary scene, mixing with artists and writers, among them Olivia Manning, Rosamond Lehmann and George Orwell. She was noted for her wit – often maliciously directed at friends – and occasional public tantrums. Her use of real people in her writing angered many of her friends and brought the threat of libel.Always feeling herself out of step with the world, she was haunted by her father’s absence during her childhood and her mother’s early death; she longed for love yet was sexually ambivalent. In exploring the intimate relationship between Stevie Smith’s life and work, Frances Spalding gives a new insight into a writer who always saw death as a friend, yet was also one of the great celebrators of life, whether commonplace or extraordinary.
Nineteen
For fans of Suzanne Heywood’s Wavewalker and Cea Sunrise Person’s North of Normal comes Leslie Johansen Nack’s emotional follow-up memoir about her battle with addiction following a traumatic childhood—and her inspiring journey toward healing and happiness.In the mid-1970s, Leslie Nack’s family returned from sailing to French Polynesia and began the integration process into American life again, which included being tossed back and forth between an alcoholic, mentally ill mother and an abusive, overbearing father. To find love and acceptance, Leslie chases a myth that throws her into the path of nefarious older men, where she eventually falls into drug and alcohol addiction. Her father dies in his plane in the jungles of Mexico when Leslie is nineteen, but his abuse lingers in her psyche. She spirals, her only solace her next fix—until, somehow, she finds the grace, despite her abjectly dysfunctional family background, to believe in her worth. This newfound self-love changes everything for her, and finally she is able to find her way to sobriety and recovery. Raw and intense but ultimately hopeful, this sequel to the popular memoir Fourteen tells the rest of Nack’s turbulent—and incredible—story.
Imperfect: The Life of a Probation Officer
In Imperfect, Jonathan Hussey — author of Reoffending and the Probation Workbook series — offers a compelling and unflinching memoir of his two decades working within the Criminal Justice System. Spanning his early years in adult probation to his time in youth justice and through the turbulent rollout of Transforming Rehabilitation, Jonathan reflects on the wide range of individuals he has worked with — from repeat offenders and sex offenders to young people on the cusp of change. With honesty and insight, he explores not just the professional challenges but the emotional toll the job can take if not managed correctly, pulling back the curtain on the mental health pressures that working in probation can bring about. Imperfect is more than a personal story — it’s a reflective, eye-opening guide for those considering a career in probation, current practitioners navigating a complex system, or anyone drawn to the realities behind one of society’s most demanding and misunderstood public service roles. Blending personal narrative with professional reflection, Jonathan captures both the frustrations and the redemptive power of working with complex individuals. Thought-provoking, honest, and deeply human, Imperfect is essential reading for anyone interested in probation careers, offender rehabilitation, criminal justice in general, or the personal impact of frontline public service work.

Crackdown
Garth Mullins was born partially blind and with Albinism into a world too bright for him to fully see and too unforgiving to fully accept him. Growing up, he was often bullied, by both students and teachers, who mocked his appearance and trivialized his disability. But Garth found strength and purpose in anti-fascist activism and punk rock, a scene that accepted him for who he was and offered an escape from the alienation and drudgery of his suburban Vancouver neighbourhood. He also found solace in heroin, spurring an addiction that would span three decades. Garth''s own experiences as a heroin user, complete with dope sickness, incarceration and overdose, is a common story for those struggling with heroin and opioid addictions. And for Garth, it was this realisation, while fighting his addiction, that led him to drug activism. He had seen first-hand the failure of abstinence-based recovery programs, the fatal threat posed by unsafe drug supplies, the over-representation of drug users, particularly Black and Indigenous users, in jails and prisons. And he saw that far from the government being successful in its attempt to curb drug use, its war against drugs had been a deadly failure. Weaving together Garth''s raw and intimate account of his addiction with the broader issues and history surrounding drug treatment and policy, Crackdown offers a forceful challenge to the received wisdom about how best to treat addiction and keep drug users alive and safe.
The Roots of the Guava Tree
A debut contemporary memoir about a young woman struggling to understand her identity as the daughter of a Jewish mother and Christian Palestinian father, coming of age in Colombia as increasing violence and the instability of the 1980s engulf her country. Sonia Daccarett grew up with a Jewish mother and a Christian Palestinian father in Colombia during the drug-war 1980s. When she asks her parents questions about their family’s ethnicity and religion they answer evasively, defining their family religion and ethnicity as “nothing.” Grandparents and family members who speak Yiddish, Hebrew, and Arabic and fled from places called the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Russia, Bethlehem, and the Ottoman Empire, does not sound like “nothing” to Sonia. At the same time, Sonia grapples with her American education at school. She is both enchanted and challenged by the tropical landscape of her childhood in a remote suburb of Cali, which is rapidly changing as cocaine trafficking and drug cartels begin to dominate the city’s life. As she tries to discover what her family is, Colombia begins unraveling around her through violence, kidnappings, and the death of acquaintances and friends. At the same time, her parents’ marriage and their personal identities are rocked by the faraway Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982. Soon, she will have to decide whether to stay in Colombia with her family or leave them behind to find the answers she seeks.
SOVEREIGNTY - John Mappin - The Restoration of Sanity
Civilizationstands on the brink. Nations betray their people. Psychiatry colonises thehuman mind. Truth itself is pathologised. Yet on the cliffs of Cornwall, in theshadow of Arthurian legend, one man raises a banner against the managed declineof the West. JohnMappin is a sentinel of sovereignty, a modern mythmaker, and, willingly or not,a hero at history's crossroads. Fromhis defiant refusal to turn Camelot into a migrant-processing hotel to hisprophetic wager on Donald Trump's rise, Mappin has become a lightning rod forglobal battles; nationhood versus globalism, courage versus conformity, truthversus the psychiatric priesthood of lies. His close relationship with CharlieKirk, his friendship with Candace Owens, and his associations with figures suchas Tucker Carlson and Nigel Farage show how his influence reaches acrosscontinents. Author Mike Fairclough observes how Mappin forges connections,bridges worlds, and unites those who still dare to speak truth. Thisbook is not a neutral biography. It is a rallying cry. It traces Mappin'sjourney through hidden networks, fateful alliances, and symbolic acts thatripple across nations. We step inside Camelot's Round Table, where artists,diplomats, scientists, and dissidents gather to speak the truths theestablishment fears. At itscore, Sovereignty: John Mappin and TheRestoration of Sanity is a declaration that philosophy, not politics oreconomics, is the true engine of history. It reveals how psychiatry became thecorrosive creed behind tyranny and war. It shows how myth can still awakennations. And it argues that the Restoration of Sanity begins with reclaimingthe sovereignty of the mind. Arthur. Achilles. Odysseus. Trump. Mappin. The names change. The archetype endures. Theman who stands when others bow. This isa story of myth and memory. Of prophecy and defiance. Of sanity andsovereignty. A story not only about John Mappin, but about whether Britain, andthe West, still have the will to remain free.
The Strangers
LONGLISTED FOR THE GORDON BURN PRIZE 2025LONGLISTED FOR THE JHALAK PRIZE 2025Richly imaginative and powerfully empathetic, an intimate portrait of five remarkable Black men, and a meditation on race, estrangement and the search for home.''Thrilling and ingenious, propulsive and genre-defying: The Strangers is an outstanding book'' Bernardine Evaristo''Luminous and extraordinary... This book will be referenced for years to come'' Lemn SissayIn the western imagination, a Black man is always a stranger. Outsider, foreigner, intruder, alien. One who remains associated with their origins irrespective of how far they have travelled from them. One who is not an individual in their own right but the representative of a type.What kind of performance is required for a person to survive this condition? And what happens beneath the mask?In answer, Ekow Eshun conjures the voices of five very different men. Ira Aldridge: nineteenth century actor and playwright. Matthew Henson: polar explorer. Frantz Fanon: psychiatrist and political philosopher. Malcolm X: activist leader. Justin Fashanu: million-pound footballer. Each a trailblazer in his field. Each haunted by a sense of isolation and exile. Each reaching for a better future.Ekow Eshun tells their stories with breathtaking lyricism and empathy, capturing both the hostility and the beauty they experienced in the world. And he locates them within a wider landscape of Black art, culture, history and politics which stretches from Africa to Europe to North America and the Caribbean. As he moves through this landscape, he maps its thematic contours and fault lines, uncovering traces of the monstrous and the fantastic, of exile and escape, of conflict and vulnerability, and of the totemic central figure of the stranger.
Vivienne Westwood
From punk provocateur to celebrity couturier, Vivienne Westwood was one of the most influential artists of recent times. A true original who used clothes to express her ethos, often fusing anti-establishment values with high-end, corseted visuals. As an emerging designer in the seventies, Westwood, together with her then-partner Malcolm McLaren, was a key architect of the anarchic aesthetic known as punk, worn most notably by McLaren's band the Sex Pistols. Safety pins, ripped clothes, visible seams and bondage trousers were made to shock, but also to instigate change; a theme that permeated Westwood's work. From punk, Westwood looked to art and history, drawing inspiration for her Pirate collection and New Romantic outfits of the eighties, before closing out the decade with parodies of the upper classes in her now iconic bustle skirts and 'mini-crini' crinolines. In 1992, she received an OBE for her services to fashion design, topping it up in 2006 with a Damehood. Revered by royalty and rock stars alike, her eponymous label - now overseen by creative director Andreas Kronthaler, Westwood's husband since 1992 - still resonates with celebrity clients worldwide. Fully illustrated throughout, Vivienne Westwood: Provocateur chronicles the celebrated fashion designer's style, life and legacy.
Hear Me
"Having lived through these experiences and been unable to speak out - not knowing how to use my voice to ask for help - I am thrilled that I am finally being heard and my story is being told."This is a memoir about childhood neglect; childhood sexual abuse; and living in care - but it is also one of the best examples of resilience and survival. Groomed and abused as a child, Liz could easily have crumbled. Instead, she stood up and saw justice done. But Hear Me is more than one woman's story - as remarkable and powerfully written as that story is. It is also a call to arms for the unheard victims across the country. Liz is fiercely passionate about spreading awareness of child neglect, abuse, poverty, living in care and how that can impact people throughout life, and limit their chances of achieving their full potential. She is determined to have an impact on this subject, to be a voice for change. Until these topics are highlighted on prime-time TV, on drive time radio shows, and are discussed around the dinner table and in the playground, abusers will continue to abuse, protected by a blanket of fear. Liz is hopeful her story will contribute to a change in the culture we live in. Despite the horrors she has endured, Hear Me is also a beautifully, sometimes even funny, memoir which will make readers stop in their tracks and really think.
I Swear
From the remarkable man whose life inspired the heartstopping film, ‘I Swear’, a book that offers extraordinary insight into what it’s like to live with a severe form of Tourette’s Syndrome: a fascinating, complex condition that’s more common than most of us think ( 1 in 100 schoolchildren have the condition) , and yet is chronically misunderstood.Born in the 1970s on the Scottish Borders, John’s was ten when his tics first arrived, as if from nowhere. Previously a happy, popular, football-mad boy he was labelled disruptive, rude, and even mad. As his condition progressed, from blinks and jerks to involuntary rude and obscene shouting, John was bullied, rejected - alienated from his family and a society that had no idea what to make of him.Hospitalized and drugged for months, it was only an extraordinary and transformative friendship, and John’s dogged optimism, that turned his life around, making I Swear an inspirational story of triumph over adversity.Through John’s eyes, we see Tourette’s not just as a medical condition, but as a lens through which we can all better understand the importance of human connection. And how essential, as well as ultimately rewarding, it can be to keep going and never give up.
Gertrude Stein
''Strikingly accomplished . . . utterly compelling.'' SUNDAY TIMES''A masterpiece of biography.'' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH''A total joy to read.'' SARAH BAKEWELL''I feel like I''ve been waiting for this book my whole life.'' SHEILA HETIFrom the celebrated author of Square Haunting comes a biography as unconventional and surprising as the life it tells.‘Think of the Bible and Homer, think of Shakespeare and think of me,’ wrote Gertrude Stein in 1936. Admirers called her a genius, sceptics a charlatan: she remains one of the most confounding – and contested – writers of the twentieth century.In this literary detective story, Francesca Wade delves into the creation of the Stein myth. We see her posing for Picasso’s portrait; at the centre of Bohemian Parisian life hosting the likes of Matisse and Hemingway; racing through the French countryside with her enigmatic companion Alice B. Toklas; dazzling American crowds on her sell-out tour for her sensational Autobiography – a veritable celebrity. Yet Stein hoped to be remembered not for her personality but for her work. From her deathbed, she charged her partner with securing her place in literary history. How would her legend shift once it was Toklas’s turn to tell the stories – especially when uncomfortable aspects of their past emerged from the archive? Using astonishing never-before-seen material, Wade uncovers the origins of Stein''s radical writing, and reveals new depths to the storied relationship which made it possible.This is Gertrude Stein as she was when nobody was watching: captivating, complex and human.
The Striker and the Clock
An exhilarating and searing memoir about life as a professional female footballer - and a beautiful examination of the joy and pain of serious athletics‘Riveting ... A paean to the beautiful game’ Los Angeles Times ‘It contained so much of what I love and find endlessly interesting about football ... A very lovely thinker and writer’ Rebecca Watson‘A compelling debut’ Times Literary SupplementIn The Striker and the Clock, Georgia Cloepfil tells the story of her life in football: the triumph, the exhilaration, the deep bonds between teammates, and also the years of self-denial, exile and dedication, in which players try in vain to outpace a clock that ticks down toward an indeterminate ending.What emerges is a profound meditation on what it is to have a body, and what it is to have the compulsion to push it to do the near impossible; and a love letter to the motivations, joys, pains and desires of a beautiful game.
Kissing Girls on Shabbat
A 2025 AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION STONEWALL HONOR BOOK In this “searing testament to the strength in claiming one’s destiny” (The Washington Post), a young woman desperately attempts to protect her children and family while also embracing her queer identity in a controlling Hasidic community. This memoir is perfect for fans of Unorthodox and Educated.Growing up in the Hasidic community of Brooklyn’s Borough Park, Sara Glass knew one painful truth: what was expected of her and what she desperately wanted were impossibly opposed. Tormented by her attraction to women and trapped in a loveless arranged marriage, she ultimately could not conform to her religious upbringing and eventually made the difficult decision to walk away from the world she knew. Sara’s journey to self-acceptance began with the battle for a divorce and custody of her children, an act that left her on the verge of estrangement from her family and community. Controlled by the fear of losing everything, she forced herself to remain loyal to the compulsory heteronormativity baked into Hasidic Judaism and married again. But after suffering profound loss and a shocking sexual assault, Sara decided to finally be completely true to herself. Kissing Girls on Shabbat is both an unflinching window into the world of ultra-conservative Orthodox Jewish communities and an inspiring celebration of learning to love yourself that ultimately “leaves a mark” (Publishers Weekly).
Frankly
Frankly is no ordinary political memoir. Remarkable for its honesty and self-reflection, this is the story of Nicola Sturgeon, one of our most influential and successful leaders.The first female and longest-serving First Minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon’s enduring popularity was a rare constant in an era marked by Brexit, Covid and five different UK prime ministers. Previously, as ‘Yes Minister’ and Deputy Leader of the SNP, she helped to bring Scotland to the brink of self-rule, overseeing the Yes campaign in the Scottish independence referendum of 2014.In this deeply personal memoir, Sturgeon recounts her journey from working-class Ayrshire to the steps of Bute House. Revealing the person behind the politician, she explores the schism between her private and public personas: one painfully shy and self-critical, the other a consummate public performer. And yet, she pulls no punches, candidly recounting her interactions with figures including Theresa May, Boris Johnson, Donald Trump, and Alex Salmond – her mentor and, ultimately, her staunch adversary.Full of the verve and wit that made Sturgeon one of the most high-profile politicians in the UK, this is a unique blend of personal insight and captivating vignettes. Infused throughout with a love of Scotland and its people, it honestly discusses Sturgeon’s mistakes, her battles, and her triumphs. Frankly is the compelling story of no ordinary politician.
