Soft Core


A blazing novel following a young woman on a wild, hallucinogenic quest for love and selfhood in San Francisco's seedy underground. Baby is a dancer at a strip club and at the age of 27, she's feeling lost. It seems that only Dino, her sweet, cross-dressing, drug-dealing ex-boyfriend can keep her afloat. So, when Dino disappears without so much as a kiss goodbye, she plunges headfirst into San Francisco's shady erotic underground to find him. Baby searches through dive bars and old haunts, at the club and at the sex dungeon where she has a part-time dominatrix gig. She encounters clients like Simon, a recluse paying her for increasingly bizarre 'favours' and a philosophizing suicide fetishist named 'Nobody', as well as co-workers like Emeline, the balletic new hire who seems to want to steal Baby's whole identity, starting with her underwear. It's not long before she starts to find cryptic notes hidden in her belongings and realises her search is attracting the wrong kind of attention. With her grip on reality loosening and the clock ticking, will Baby manage to put together the pieces and find the only man she's ever loved? Or might her past catch up with her first? Manically smart, brutally funny and deeply sexy, Soft Core is a book about desire, fantasy and true love - like no other.

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
