I'm Not With the Man
Whatever happened to the weirdos? The rock'n'roll rebels? The children of The Revolution who not so much raged against The Man as barely acknowledged the concept of authority? Like vividly plumed birds of paradise whose habitat is gone, they're practically extinct. In their place? The communal voice of the on-trend musical activist, forever saying and doing The Right Thing. The opposite, in fact, of what we used to know as the free-wheelin' rock 'n' roll nutter... Sylvia Patterson remembers them. The freaks, geeks and oddballs who picked up microphones and instruments not to become rich or famous but because they were too mad (or unemployable) to do anything else. The true radicals and loose cannon lunatics who pandered to zero PC tropes, and even less societal rules, determined to live their worst lives.I'm Not With The Man is the freaky flipside to her award-winning memoir I'm Not With The Band, celebrating the era of 'the rock 'n' roll nutter' through her own encounters with some of music's most uncompromising mavericks. From a cursing Adam Ant to a formidable Chrissie Hynde, from a carousing Liam Gallagher to a coruscating Sinead O'Connor, from a comedy Wu Tang Clan to an unrepentant Marianne Faithfull, from a fragile Evan Dando to a furious Thom Yorke... and many, many more. Hilarious, revealing and poignant, I'm Not With The Man is a farewell fanfare to the heroically unhinged, who lived on the edge of not only society but their own precarious sanity. Deliberately. We will not see their like again.

When her best friend, Mia, announces that her brother - Grace's runaway groom - is flying in from New York and will be attending her divorce party, Grace's heartbreak feels fresher than ever and she knows she needs a plan. Preferably one involving a date who will show Logan what he's missing. Enter Donal: a slightly chaotic Irishman who is definitely not Grace's type. But he's kind and keeps turning up exactly when she needs him most. As Grace juggles her (only) bridal commission with old wounds, heartbreak and a very unexpected spark, she will learn that sometimes the wrong man can be just right - and that the best love stories are the ones you never see coming.

Meditating God''s Way
Meditating God’s Way: A Christian Path to Strength and Resilience is a roadmap for people who are searching for tools that build strength and resilience. Originally adapted from Reclaiming the Art of Biblical Meditation and The Strength You Need Morgan identifies key passages from Scripture to help believer’s face life’s challenges and practical instruction on how to get the most out of biblical meditation. Morgan’s approach connects each of these passages to real-life scenarios, offering practical and spiritual encouragement for Christians seeking to rely on God’s strength in every aspect of their lives. Each strength addresses pressing issues that many people face today, making them deeply relevant and impactful.“Imagine a university where the library is open only on moonless nights and all lights are prohibited. The students have access to all the books, desks, and study carrels, but they must pursue their studies in total blackness. Expensive volumes fill the reading rooms—some of them rare and valuable. Students are free to move among the bookshelves and remove any resources they want. But everything is done in darkness—no lamps, no candles, no flashlights, no light of any kind. Total blackout. That’s a pretty accurate picture of a world trying to learn, trying to think, and trying to meditate without the light of the life of Christ.” --Robert Morgan, from Chapter One.This book is perfect for:Christians seeking mental and emotional resilience tools within a Scriptural framework.Readers of Christian self-help or personal growth genres who are open to philosophical influences.Young professionals and leaders balancing faith and high-stress lives.Counselors and ministry leaders looking for resources to address the mental health needs of their communities through faith-aligned practices.

Humanitarianism 2.0
This book spells out a new framework for humanitarian aid in the long emergency of climate change. Looking ahead to the massive needs of the late 2020s and the 2030s, Hugo Slim shows how current ethics and action in the sector are necessary, but not sufficient, for the new moral and operational challenges of our planetary crisis.Humanitarianism 2.0 offers a series of practical ethical pathways for aid workers and organisations to reimagine and redesign their purpose in the increasing number of climate-related disasters around the world. Slim expands the fundamental principle of humanity to include the protection of nature in humanitarian ethics, and also faces up to the hard challenge of impartiality and prioritisation in a universal emergency. He then recognises anticipation, adaptation, mitigation and locally led aid as humanitarian obligations in climate-related disasters.Like everything else in the climate and nature crisis, humanitarian ethics need adaptation. Slim’s bold, smart and much-needed proposals show the way.
The Three-Cornered World
An artist on holiday at a mountain hot spring becomes fixated on a mysterious local beauty in this Japanese classic. “Soseki is the representative modern Japanese novelist, a figure of truly national stature.” – Haruki MurakamiOne of the foundational classics of modern Japanese literature, this profound, meditative novel about repressed longing and aesthetic rapture shows legendary Japanese writer Natsume Soseki at his very best.A nameless young artist travels into the mountains, in search of the refreshments of nature. Staying at a small hot spring hotel, he soaks in the water and takes walks nearby, always with the intention of painting - though he never seems to get around to actually doing so. Instead, he finds himself transfixed by the daughter of the hotel owner, an enigmatic young beauty.His preoccupation is neither romantic nor sexual, but aesthetic: why is he so drawn to O-Nami''s changeable face, now hostile, now serene? And what prevents him finally putting brush to paper and painting her picture? As the holiday goes on, these two circle each other, pursuing barbed yet friendly conversations about art and despair. And the more he learns about her life - a divorce, a rumoured entanglement with a local priest, a cousin in the army about to travel to the Manchurian front - the more he comes to realise that experiencing O-Nami''s beauty to the full requires not just gazing upon her, but understanding her.Lushly poetic and stunningly sensitive, The Three-Cornered World is a masterful exploration of the beauty of nature, the artist''s temperament, and the hidden springs of human sympathy.
No. 1 St James's Park
The second instalment in the highly praised Emily Grey series‘Emily Grey proves so engaging that I hope she'll keep going into the Cold War', Jake Kerridge, Daily TelegraphAt the height of the First World War, Emily Grey finds herself far away from the action, collating Swiss rubber imports in a hut in the middle of St James’ Park.

And, if they are, can Emily, and her ever-eager partner Nigel Nisbet, stop them before they go too fa? ith a matchless flair for historical accuracy, psychological acuity and breathtaking adventure, Judd’s latest historical thriller demonstrates once again that he is one of the finest spy novelists writing today and that this series of novels about the origin of MI6 bears comparison with John Le Carre, Patrick O’Brien and Joseph Conrad.
