Guinness: A Family Succession


THE IRISH TIMES BESTSELLER, NOW IN PAPERBACK. 'A brilliant, entertaining read.' - Irish TimesThe head of the Guinness family tells the dramatic true story of how his ancestors created the largest brewery in the world. Growing up at Farmleigh, the country house outside Dublin, Arthur Edward Guinness – Ned for short – was fascinated by the secrets and legends that surrounded the early generations of his famous family of brewers, who went from obscurity in Kildare to the pinnacle of Irish and British society. In this bestselling account, he explores the challenges faced by each generation, culminating in the dramatic events when his great-great-grandfather bought out his glamorous older brother and floated Guinness on the stock exchange. Overnight Edward Cecil Guinness became Ireland’s richest man. This is a tale in which brewing genius, sibling rivalry, bounteous philanthropy and astonishing social mobility are interwoven with historic national events, including the Act of Union, Catholic Emancipation, the Famine, the Home Rule movement, the Dublin Lockout and ultimately Irish independence. It is the inside story, as told by Ned Guinness. 'The definitive history of the Guinness brewing dynasty.' – Irish Independent'A fantastic book.' –The Business (RTÉ Radio 1)'Really, really fascinating. More than a family biography, it's a book that positions Guinness and its commercial story against the backdrop of a city.' – Donal Fallon

The Catch


'Totally original, entirely compelling and astonishingly well crafted, The Catch solidifies Yrsa Daley-Ward as one of Britain's best and boldest voices. A dark and lyrical debut that's well worth the wait.’ Yomi Adegoke, author of Slay in Your Lane and The List'A fantastic, shimmering work. Yrsa Daley-Ward's rich exploration of Black womanhood and familial complexities is a must read.' Irenosen Okojie‘From one of my favourite living writers, The Catch is a slippery shape-shifting delight. Yrsa’s novel is fluorescently dark and winding; brilliant in its investigation of refractions and meaning.’ Eloghosa Osunde, author of VAGABONDS!‘Yrsa’s work is like holding the truth in your hands. A glorious living thing’ FLORENCE WELCHA darkly whimsical debut about women daring to live and create with impunity.Twin sisters Clara and Dempsey have always struggled to relate, their familial bond severed after their mother vanished into the Thames. In adulthood, they are content to be all but estranged, until Clara sees a woman who looks exactly like their mother on the streets of London. The catch: this version of Serene, aged not a day, has enjoyed a childless life.Clara, a celebrity author in desperate need of validation, believes Serene is their mother, while Dempsey, isolated and content to remain so, believes she is a con woman. As they clash over this stranger, the sisters hurtle toward an altercation that threatens their very existence, forcing them to finally confront their pasts--together.In her riveting first foray into fiction, Yrsa Daley-Ward conjures a kaleidoscopic multiverse of daughterhood and mother-want, exploring the sacrifices that Black women must make for self-actualization. The result is a marvel of a debut novel that boldly asks, "How can it ever, ever be a crime to choose yourself?"
