The House of Broken Things
She''s sleeping like a fairy tale girl, before the storyteaches girls like her a lesson.In The House of Broken Things, Kim Moore interrogates motherhood as a transformative experience in all its complexity and ambivalence. Moore conjours an intimate atmosphere of haunting domesticity, treating the poem as a kind of secular prayer: the worldly and otherworldy held in the same breath. These poems are a nuanced and sometimes painfully honest portrait of life as a new mother, and her hopes and terrors for a daughter growing up in a world of violence towards women and girls. Throughout, fears and tensions are paired seamlessly with moments of great tenderness, wit and revelation: these poems always offer a way out.The House of Broken Things is a thrilling new work from one of our boldest and most exciting poets.

Manitoba
Třetí sbírka Davida Vody (nar. 1976), básníka a historika umění, je jako spirála, která se napíná, smršťuje, roste. Jeho poezie pulzuje od hmotného k duchovnímu a zpět. Lze jí propadnout jako papírovým dnem. Vidět ji v barevných kostkách poskládaných na holé zemi. Slyšet ji v altu hortenzií. Dotýkat se jí, když kráčíš po dně vrásky kolem milovaných úst. David Voda ve své Manitobě tvoří vše nové. Z nápisů tužkou po bílé stěně, z ladění zvonů, bzukotu pump, bobulí pámelníku, ze světla, v němž žijeme. Manitoba je v řeči kmene Krí místo, kde se prérie úží, aby duch prošel uchem jehly. Mezi životem a smrtí je trhlina, předkové přicházejí, aby pojedli z našich talířů, a mizejí syti našimi úlitbami. Kosmem zní jazyk jako chůze, láme bochníky sněhu, drtí skořápky popelavých vajec. Do úžiny ducha lze vstoupit odkudkoli, jen položit klepadla na své spánky.
Unbreakable
Familiar to many from his season on the Directing Staff of Channel 4's Who Dares Wins, Melvyn Downes served in the SAS for 12 years. He has faced physical and psychological trauma. He’s lost close friends and family members. He’s experienced bullying and racial harassment. But no matter how tough things get, he is always convinced he’ll get out the other side. He wasn’t born fearless, or strong, or confident. Those things grew from graft, a willingness to learn from mistakes and a constant desire to push himself out of his comfort zone. Structured chronologically around lessons learned the hard the way, that helped him be the best version of himself, on and off the battlefield, this is a true story of a life lived at the toughest extremes. It’s also an inspiring insight into the can-do mindset of an SAS blade who lives by the ethos: ‘Improve, adapt, overcome’.

That Time Everything Was On Fire
'A wonderful book, with the beauty, warmth and solidarity of female friendship at its core' 'An excellent debut novel from a writer with a very perceptive take on modern womanhood' 'So good, so addictive, so relatable and so realistic!' *** Sam and Daisy have been best friends since university. Back then Daisy was a wild, Fleetwood Mac-obsessed girl descended from the Yorkshire Moors, while Sam’s youth was misspent traipsing around Liverpool on shopping trips and nights out. But as they lean against each other on a wooden bench in the tired garden of their beloved local pub, gazing out at Sam’s wedding, they have no idea that their paths are about to truly diverge for the first time. As Sam’s desire to become a mother consumes her, and Daisy’s inability to resist temptation haunts her, these best of friends will lose sight of themselves – and each other. With each misstep and unintentional betrayal the gulf widens. But can they build a bridge, or will they let it burn? *** 'An assured and clever debut' Kate Kemp, author of The Grapevine 'Warm, witty and deeply romantic' Lauren Bravo, author of Probably Nothing ‘Heart-warming, funny and so relatable’ Laura Dockrill, author of I Love You, I Love You, I Love You ‘Spending time with the characters – in their hope, uncertainty and banter – was like being amongst friends’ Gabrielle Griffiths, author of Greater Sins ‘A heartfelt kaleidoscope of female friendship’ Roxy Dunn, author of As Young as This ‘A must-read full of heart’ Stephanie Steel, author of The Train from Platform 2 ‘A touching, true-to-life story of friendship, the tensions and pressures of your thirties, and proper Northern representation’ Sarah Handyside, author of Instructions for Heartbreak ‘Sharp and observant, warm and touching’ Bonnie Burke-Patel, author of Dead as Gold ‘Warm, witty and charming, reading That Time Everything Was on Fire feels like gossiping with your best mates in a pub garden and finally feeling the sun on your skin after a long winter’ Marni Appleton, author of I Hope You’re Happy ‘A beautiful ode to the female friendships that carry us through our lives, with all their many complications’ Silvia Saunders, author of Homesick ‘A heartfelt and timely debut’ Elspeth Wilson, author of These Mortal Bodies

1996
“Dominic clearly remembers more about the 90s than I do.” – Zoe Ball I was in the right place at exactly the right time. I was handed a precious backstage pass to this magical period, as a chronicler of some of its most significant moments, of its wild protagonists, whether in music, entertainment, fashion, football, art or politics. I had a front-row seat for that insane decade, but it was 1996 that was the period’s stunning apex. Oasis at Maine Road and Knebworth, the births of Robbie Williams the solo star and the Spice Girls, the Euro 96 football tournament and ‘Three Lions’, the rise of New Labour and Tony Blair. I was there for the lot. 1996. Britpop ruled the airwaves. The tabloids framed reality long before Instagram.Football was finally coming home. Tony Blair was learning to play rock star – and rock stars were learning they could play politics. Everyone was partying hard, and Britain was the coolest place on earth. Showbiz reporter Dominic Mohan wasn’t watching the party from afar – he was in the room. Backstage at Knebworth with Oasis. In strip clubs with Robbie Williams. On the phone to Bowie. On the receiving end of Spice Girls gossip, Gallagher gobbiness and tabloid-era chaos. From Euro ’96 euphoria to Brit Awards anarchy, from rave culture to New Labour, Mohan witnessed the moment the UK went from scruffy indie island to global cultural powerhouse. Part memoir, part cultural autopsy and part riotous tour through the 90s and its greatest year, 1996 is a jaw-dropping front-row seat to the madness, the music, the football, and the politics that reshaped Britain – and created legends along the way. Three decades on, Mohan returns to the year everything peaked, and asks: what the hell happened, why did it matter, and can it ever happen again? If you were there – this book will feel like going home. If you weren’t – you’ll wish you had been.
