Homes for Living
Home should be a place where we can truly be ourselves, a place of safety and refuge from external pressures. It reflects our individuality and authenticity in every corner, and shows the effects of a life well-lived: doorknobs shiny with use; tabletops bearing the faint scars of watermarks; a sofa slightly sagging in the middle from evenings spent lounging.
Through Piglet in Bed's six guiding principles, you can build a home for intentional living: a space to rest, wallow and retreat. Sections include odes, essays, and recipes by chef and author Sophie Wyburd. Discover:
- Tips for the messy host
- The ultimate chicken pie
- How to be completely useless to everybody: take a long bath
- How to create a great tablescape
- The lost art of picnicking
With a chapter dedicated to each room in the house, Homes for Living will equip you with simple tips and tricks to create a home that celebrates the imperfections of our lives and enables you to express yourself in a low maintenance, sustainable way.

Unseen
The fascinating psychology of blindspots, their complex causes, and the alarming consequences of looking without seeing. Can we believe our eyes? Most of us are confident that we can, but we shouldn't be so sure. Every day, we fail to see things that are right in front of us, miss sudden or unexpected changes and fall for illusions without realising it. The culprit? Blind spots. These hidden gaps in our perception are responsible for errors in operating machinery, diagnosing medical conditions, giving evidence in court and even influence how we invest our money or shop. Unseen explores the hidden corners of the human mind where perception fails, from the everyday oversights to the deep-rooted cognitive biases that shape our worldview. Lifting the lid on how our minds shape what we see, neuropsychologist David Lewis and illusionist Keelan Leyser explore the different types of blind spots, why they occur, how they can be used to manipulate our thoughts and the practical steps we can take to avoid them. What have you been missing?

Miss Hortense uses her skills to investigate the investments of the Pardner network - a special community of Black investors, determined to help their people succeed. But when an unidentified man is found dead in one of the Pardner's homes, a Bible quote noted down beside his body, Miss Hortense's long-buried past comes rushing back to greet her, bringing memories of the worst moment of her life, one which her community has never let her forget.

Jan Morris
'Brave, beautifully written and shrewdly researched . . . this is a riveting read by a writer at the top of her game.' The Times'Seldom have I read such an enthralling biography.' Literary Review'An exemplary Life, about a strange English writer of rare gifts and peculiar greatness.' Independent'As adventurous and intelligent as its roving subject.' Telegraph'Superb.' SpectatorA captivating authorised biography of the legendary writer Jan Morris. She was the twentieth century. Who wouldn't want to write her biograph? hen Jan Morris joined the 1953 Everest expedition and was first to get news of the ascent back to London, she became the most famous journalist in the world. So began a glittering career covering the Eichmann trial, interviewing Che Guevara and scooping the story of Suez collusion. Morris transitioned in the early seventies and documented the experience in Conundrum. She was a pioneer and her books, including Venice and the Pax Britannica trilogy, have inspired readers across the globe. Here, renowned travel writer and biographer Sara Wheeler uncovers the complexity of this twentieth-century icon to reveal a mosaic of contradictions. Morris's work conjured the spirit of place, yet her late masterpiece Trieste celebrates 'the meaning of nowhere'; she was a Welsh nationalist who wasn't Welsh; a preacher of kindness with a cruel side. This is a portrait of an astonishing life, and a scintillating story of longing, travel and never reaching home. 'Wonderful.' Paul Theroux'Brilliant.' Simon Jenkins'Superb.' Colin Thubron'Breathtakingly good.' Michael Palin
