Flaneuse


If the word flâneur conjures up visions of Baudelaire, boulevards and bohemia – then what exactly is a flâneuse?In this gloriously provocative and celebratory book, Lauren Elkin defines her as ‘a determined resourceful woman keenly attuned to the creative potential of the city, and the liberating possibilities of a good walk’.Part cultural meander, part memoir, Flâneuse traces the relationship between the city and creativity through a journey that begins in New York and moves us to Paris, via Venice, Tokyo and London, exploring along the way the paths taken by the flâneuses who have lived and walked in those cities.From nineteenth-century novelist George Sand to artist Sophie Calle, from war correspondent Martha Gellhorn to film-maker Agnes Varda, Flâneuse considers what is at stake when a certain kind of light-footed woman encounters the city and changes her life, one step at a time.

Distancing


'A tactical, science-based blueprint for managing situations clearly and objectively ... a tour-de-force' ETHAN KROSSDistance gives you perspective. Bestselling author of Turn the Ship Around! David Marquet and professor of psychology Michael Gillespie show you how to make better decisions by becoming your own coach.Be yourself. Be fully present. Be in the moment. That is the message we hear constantly. Yet, the biggest obstacle to making wiser, more successful decisions is often... ourselves. Our limited perspective biases our choices, leading us to defend past actions rather than seek better alternatives. We need to step outside our narrow view and gain an objective, fresh perspective. In other words, we need a coach.In Distancing, David Marquet and Michael Gillespie show us how to become our own coach using a powerful mental technique called psychological distancing. By practicing:Self-distancing: we can be someone else by adopting the perspective of an outside observer. Spatial distancing: we can be somewhere else by zooming out and seeing ourselves as part of a larger picture. Temporal distancing: we can be sometime else by making decisions from the vantage point of our future self.Backed by compelling scientific research, real-world examples and practical exercises, Distancing empowers you to break free from self-limiting patterns and make clearer, smarter choices. The tools are simple. The impact is profound.

An Unwritten Novel


Saving fleeting snapshots, astutely observing strangers, recording meticulous detail: modernist author Virginia Woolf knows how to capture a moment.In 'Kew Gardens' and 'An Unwritten Novel', everyday life becomes a powerful stage for dreaming and storytelling. Woolf’s trademark stream-of-consciousness writing style is showcased in 'The Mark on the Wall' where a nameless narrator zeroes in on their environment, becoming more and more unnerved by a seemingly inexplicable dark stain.'The New Dress' and 'The Looking Glass' are brilliantly observed portraits of a few choice instants. In the former, the party dress Mabel Waring decides to wear leaves her feeling uncertain and doubtful, but she resolves to change for the better. In each of these seven stories, Woolf explores the nuanced events which make up daily life and maps how they intertwine with our thoughts and emotions.This series of pocket-sized paperbacks celebrates the art of the short story and marks Macmillan Collector's Library's 10th anniversary. Each contains a curated selection of short stories from a literary giant: Katherine Mansfield, Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allen Poe, Oscar Wilde, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Alice Dunbar Nelson, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Rabindranath Tagore.

Drawn Together


He was my protection… and my greatest weakness. Twenty-year-old Marfil Cortés lives the kind of life people imagine from afar. The daughter of a powerful businessman, she spends her days juggling Columbia classes, stolen hours at her ballet studio, and glittering nights in New York City.Her world feels untouchable — polished, predictable, safe. Until the afternoon she’s abducted in Central Park. Days later, Marfil opens her eyes in a hospital in New Orleans with no memory of what happened.There are no demands, no suspects, no explanation, only fear and the unsettling certainty that she is no longer safe. In the wake of the attack, her father tightens security and assigns her a bodyguard: Sebastian Moore. Sebastian is controlled, distant, unreadable — a man whose discipline borders on dangerous.His quiet intensity unsettles and infuriates Marfil in equal measure, stirring resentment toward his presence, his rules, his unyielding watchfulness. Yet as the threat surrounding her refuses to fade, Sebastian becomes the one person she cannot escape… and the one she cannot stop wanting. What begins as tension slowly ignites into something far more dangerous.Because the closer Marfil gets to Sebastian, the more she realizes the greatest risk may not be the one lurking in the shadows… but the feelings she never meant to have for the man sworn to protect her. Lush, addictive, and charged with suspense, Drawn Together is a darkly romantic story about love and survival, temptation and control, and the cost of uncovering what others would rather keep buried.
