The Secret Life of a Cemetery
'The Secret Life of a Cemetery is no maudlin reflection on death and remembrance...With its fox cubs and anecdotes (it) allows us a privileged glimpse of Gallot’s world, full of wonder and life.'—The ObserverA cozy and "enchanting" (Guardian) read that will transport you to the world’s most famous cemetery where the grounds are ruled by foxes, overgrown flora, and maybe even ghosts…For Benoît Gallot, Pere Lachaise is best explored without a guide: You’re guaranteed to lose your way. You’ll feel as though you’ve stepped out of time, out of Paris, and into another place entirely. In his debut memoir, Gallot, head curator of Pere Lachaise and son of a grave stonemason, pulls back the curtains on his otherworldly workplace—a cemetery crammed with tourists in the high season and mourners year-round, but also a natural paradise, where foxes roam, birds flit between trees, and wildflowers and moss encroach onto tombstones. In elegant, engrossing chapters, Gallot reveals the secret world of Pere Lachaise—its Napoleonic origins, its unusual graves and monuments—alongside touching stories from his working life in the cemetery. Born into a family of undertakers, Gallot was named curator of Pere-Lachaise in his early-thirties, inheriting the complex job of managing over 40 hectares of green space, overseeing 70,000 graves, and arranging burials and cremations, all while contending with millions of tourists—plus film crews, birdwatchers, ghost hunters, and the occasional nude performance artist. Gallot, who also lives on the cemetery grounds with his wife and young children, demystifies his unusual and often misunderstood profession, which in reality requires much more contact with living people than dead ones. In doing so, he provides insight into the history of graveyards and our evolving relationship with death. Gallot also shares vivid descriptions of flora and fauna, which have reemerged in recent years thanks to a huge rewilding effort. Initially unsure about the idea, he embraced it as the cemetery alleys blossomed and birdsong proliferated. Then in April 2020, with the city in lockdown, Gallot took an early-morning stroll and crossed paths with a fox—in the middle of Paris! He snapped a picture and posted it, unwittingly setting off a media frenzy. Gallot’s daily photographs of Pere-Lachaise’s flourishing animal and plant life have attracted followers from around the world, helping to change the public perception of cemeteries, which ultimately exist as places for the living. A bestseller in France, lauded as ‘a superb book … full of humour, empathy, and great sweetness’ by the French literary press, The Secret Life of a Cemetery is a life-affirming read that will stand the test of time.
Erased
When a “software error” erases Zala from the system, she discovers that officially, she and her newborn don’t exist. As Zala fights desperately to prove her existence, and save her child from adoption, she uncovers the Kafkaesque reality of Slovenia’s system — one that erased 25,671 citizens on February 26, 1992. A chilling thriller about bureaucracy as violence, and one mother’s battle against the state.
Ungoverning
How a deliberate dismantling of political institutions undermines the essential work of governmentIn this unsettling book, Russell Muirhead and Nancy Rosenblum trace how ungoverning—the deliberate effort to dismantle the capacity of government to do its work—has become a malignant part of politics. Democracy depends on a government that can govern, and that requires what’s called administration. The administrative state is made up of the vast array of departments and agencies that conduct the essential business of government, from national defense and disaster response to implementing and enforcing public policies of every kind. Ungoverning chronicles the reactionary movement that demands dismantling the administrative state. The demand is not for goals that can be met with policies or programs. When this demand is frustrated, as it must be, the result is an invitation to violence. Muirhead and Rosenblum unpack the idea of ungoverning through many examples of the politics of destruction. They show how ungoverning disables capacities that took generations to build—including the administration of free and fair elections. They detail the challenges faced by officials who are entrusted with running the government and who now face threats and intimidation from those who would rather bring it crashing down—and replace the regular processes of governing with chaotic personal rule. The unfamiliar phenomenon of ungoverning threatens us all regardless of partisanship or ideological leaning. Ungoverning will not be limited to Donald Trump’s moment on the political stage. To resist this threat requires that we first recognize what ungoverning is and what it portends.

Muskism
Who on earth is Elon Musk and what is he doing? Is he a hero, a villain, or does he swing constantly between those two poles?
According to the constant media gush driven by his every act and pronouncement, Musk is best understood in personal terms. This book argues differently. Rather than seeing Musk as an individual, it sees him as an avatar of something called Muskism: a playbook for our new postliberal age.
It’s not that Musk himself holds a coherent set of beliefs; you could say his life is one long improvisation. And he’s certainly never used the word Muskism – just as, a century ago, Henry Ford never used Fordism to define his own postliberal modernity. In exploring the forces that have shaped Musk, from South Africa to Silicon Valley, Space X to DOGE, Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff outline the motifs and practices that have come to dominate our own crisis-ridden world.
Muskism, they show, speaks the language of crisis and emergency to invoke a less human future: where humans are purged from the productive process and, through social media and video games, merged with the machine. This is a worldview in which the technocrat is king; which piggybacks on the state to achieve supremacy; and in which only a select few deserve salvation. If you enter, this book warns you, you will grind and you will live in the shadow of one man – but the rewards could be priceless and the alternative might be extinction.

Summoned to the Wilds
She’s sworn to protect the realm. Her heart has other plans.
Lady Ammalie Avington, Baroness of Faebarrow, knows it's not safe to pine after the son of a demon. Especially not the blood mage who threatened and abducted her and now intends to bring ruin to the realm. The very realm she is sworn to serve. It's just a terribly inconvenient fact because, well…he's rather cute.
Despite her best efforts, Amma can’t seem to get him out of her mind, not whilst locked up in a tower surrounded by infernal beings, nor trapped below ground in a den of beguiling vampires, and definitely not in the heart of a wild jungle under the tutelage of esoteric witches. She just can't help herself around Damien Maleficus Bloodthorne, danger be damned. And what danger is there? Damien's heart, the one he swears to not have, has been softening right before her eyes. Perhaps with her guidance, Damien won't rain chaos and destruction down on the world. Perhaps she can even save them both as Damien searches for a way to magically unlink them on their quest to fulfill their destinies.
So, when Amma learns she may have ancient, innate magical powers of her own, why not use them to do exactly as she pleases?

James Joyce
A major new biography that reveals how politics profoundly shaped Joyce’s life, thought and writingsThe young James Joyce (1882–1941) was forged in the smithy of Irish political controversies, and he took into his European exile a depth of political insight unrivalled among his fellow modernists. In this biography of Joyce in his youth and early exile, acclaimed Irish historian and biographer Frank Callanan reveals a Joyce who is markedly more politically conscious, informed and complex than the Joyce of Richard Ellmann’s classic account. Written in a sparkling style and rich with historical insights, Callanan’s deeply researched biography is the first sustained account of how Joyce’s Irish and European political and cultural context shaped his life, thought, and writings. Joyce was eight years old in 1890 when the O’Shea divorce scandal tore Irish nationalism apart, leading to the split in the Irish Parliamentary Party, the death of nationalist leader Charles Stewart Parnell, and a long, bitter period dominated by the anti-Parnellites. This was the Ireland that Joyce grew up in and rebelled against, and which determined his literary direction. Callanan uncovers a Joyce who was a highly original and dissenting Irish nationalist, who refused to avow or vaunt his nationalism and whose understanding was refined by the experience of living in multicultural Trieste with its fraught ethnic politics and differing models of statehood. Callanan’s Joyce is as heroic as Ellmann’s defiantly modernistic artist but in a more interesting way—a writer who didn’t lack political conviction but whose views didn’t yield to the expectations of his time. Energizing, witty, profound, and elegant, James Joyce: A Political Life is a magisterial biography that will transform how readers look at Joyce and his politics.

Defence Speeches
''But I must stop now. I can no longer speak for tears - and my client has ordered that tears are not to be used in his defence.''Cicero (106-43 BC) was the greatest orator of the ancient world: he dominated the Roman courts, usually appearing for the defence. His speeches are masterpieces of persuasion: compellingly written, emotionally powerful, and somtimes hilariously funny. This book presents five of his most famous defences: of Roscius, falsely accused of murdering his father; of the consul-elect Murena, accused of electoral bribery; of the poet Archias, on a citizenshiup charge; of Caelius, ex-lover of Clodia Metelli, on charges of violence; and of Milo, for mudering Cicero''s hated enemy Clodius. Cicero''s clients were rarely whiter-than-white; but so seductive is his oratory that the reader cannot help taking his side. In these speeches we are plunged into some of the most exciting courtroom dramas of all time.These new translations preserve Cicero''s literary artistry and emotional force, and achieve new standards of accuracy. Each speech has its own introduction, and a general introduction discusses Cicero''s public career and the criminal courts. The substantial explanatory notes guide the reader through the speeches, and offer new scholarship presented in a clear way.
Dispatch From Every Second Guess
A verse-memoir spanning the breakdown of a marriage and the resulting wide-open horizon of single motherhood,Dispatch From Every Second Guess explores how we negotiate the present in the light of the past, how our lingering resentments limit our attentions, and how old wounds reopen in new ways. Gannon’s life is layered with tensions. The tension of being a white adoptive mother to a Black son. The tension of healing from a failed marriage. The tension of supporting a partner through mental health crises. The tension of mothering the partner’s child in the shadow of a fraught relationship with one’s own mother. And the tension of admitting ugly truths in a genre that often demands beauty, especially from women poets. Perfect for fans of Sharon Olds and Maggie Smith, Gannon’s second full-length collection of poetry is rife with poignant self-reflection and lyrical storytelling as she writes her way toward understanding, and maybe even forgiveness.
