Crowd Voltage
John McCullough's Crowd Voltage addresses yearnings for community. It probes fragmentation within groups and individuals – disturbances within the body of the crowd and the crowd of the body. Engaging with working-class and queer experiences, the poems move between solitude and togetherness, haunted by ghosts from history as they dream of unity and discover joy in deserted corners. To be common here is to share not only qualities but stories with many others – to be classed alongside people with similar origins and become connected also to what is commonplace in the world of animals and plants, days and tables. Sky and sea dominate as the speakers search for oneness and completion, confronted by vast silences and the shadow of Brighton’s collapsing West Pier. John McCullough has published four previous collections, one with Salt and three with Penned in the Margins, most recently, the Costa-shortlisted Reckless Paper Birds (2019), winner of the Hawthornden Prize, and Panic Response (2022), which included his long poem 'Flowers of Sulphur', shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best Single Poem.

After the Tall Timber
A visionary reporter, novelist, essayist and critic, Renata Adler is one of our most renowned and unmissable literary figures. But she is first and foremost a journalist. This collection of her her non-fiction showcases her rigorous journalistic voice in twenty-one pieces that are concerned with, in her words, misrepresentation, coercion, and abuse of public process - and, to a degree, the journalist''s role in it.With a brilliant literary and legal mind, Adler parses power by analysing language: of courts, of journalists, of political figures, of the man on the street. In doing so, she unravels the tangled narratives that pass for the resolution of scandal and finds the threads that others miss. In these essays, Adler draws on Toward a Radical Middle (a selection of her earliest New Yorker pieces), A Year in the Dark (her film reviews), and Canaries in the Mineshaft (a selection of essays on politics and media), as well as uncollected work from the past two decades.

Colour Unbound: Henri Matisse 1941–1954
1941 marked a turning point in the life and work of Henri Matisse. At the age of seventy-two, he underwent major surgery that left him physically fragile. Yet Matisse viewed this moment not as a setback but as an opportunity 'to make the greatest progress of my life'. From that point until his death in 1954, he entered one of the most inspired and productive periods of his career. During those years, he created some of his greatest masterpieces - from the Chapel of the Rosary in Vence to his luminous cut-out gouaches, including Jazz. Vibrant and full of life, his late work stands in striking contrast to his declining physical state: dynamic, immediate and universally accessible.
Published to accompany the major exhibition at the Grand Palais, this catalogue brilliantly captures this late burst of creative vitality. Elegantly designed and beautifully printed, it brings together superb full-page reproductions of Matisse's artworks alongside rarely seen photographs of his studio, taken by renowned photographers such as Adant, Capa, Carone, Cartier-Bresson, Sima and Maywald. This visual dialogue - enriched by expert commentary - offers a deeper understanding of Matisse's final years and vividly conveys the synergy between art and life.

A kötet tartalma:
Diamantét mintha a föld nyelte volna el, nem sokkal azután, hogy egy tikos hódolótól mesés ruhát kapott ajándékba. Testvérei kétségbeesetten erednek a nyomába. A hercegnő nélkül darabokra hullik az Öt Védelmezőt összefűző kötelék, és a Varázslatok Földje örökre elveszhet...

Első nap az iskolában
Róza egy barna szemű nyúlkisasszony. Most egy kicsit ideges, mert holnap lesz az első napja az iskolában – tanító néniként.
Ahogy a gyerekek is izgulnak az első tanítási nap miatt, úgy Róza tanító néni is aggódik egy picit. Mi lesz, ha valamit nem jól csinál, milyenek lesznek a gyerekek, hogy fog kijönni velük? Persze amint elkezdődik a nap, kiderül, hogy nincs mitől tartaniuk, Róza néni kedves, és a gyerekek is aranyosak. Bár nem megy minden zökkenőmentesen, a mese végére kiderül, egyáltalán nem is olyan vészes az iskolába járás.
Bolhaváros
Van egy hely, Bolhaváros, ami kutyául különleges. A lakói ugyanis mind kutyák, akik nagyon szeretik egymást és a városukat. Sokat vannak a szabadban, beszélgetnek az utcán, a kölykök rohangálnak fel és alá, és a Jutifalat cukrászdában kapni a legfinomabb fagylaltot.
Ám egy napon az egyik kutya autót vesz magának. Nahát, micsoda vagányság! Hamarosan minden bolhavárosi kutya autóval jár mindenhova. Igen ám, de az utcákon már szinte semmi hely sincs a gyalogosoknak, a kutyák már nem beszélgetnek egymással, mindenki csak ül az autójában idegesen, nyomja a dudát, áll a dugóban. Ráadásul szörnyen büdös is van. Hol van már az a barátságos és kedves hely, amit eddig Bolhavárosként ismertek a lakói? De semmi sincs veszve! A kutyák felismerik, hogy sokkal jobb, ha nem mindenhova autóval mennek, és bátran lehet a gyerekeknek ide-oda szaladgálniuk az utcán, és a felnőttek is nyugodtan mehetnek gyalog. Úgy még beszélgetni is tudnak az ismerőseikkel.
Ha egy igazán vicces és szórakoztató könyvet keresel, amiben szóba kerül, hogy miért fontos, hogy ne csak mindig autózzunk, amikor gyalogolni is tudunk, akkor Ivan Mitrevski könyvét neked találták ki.
A Gamble-fiúk 3: Tempting the Bodyguard - A csábító testőr
Mindenkitől képes őt megvédeni, csak saját magától nem...
Alana Gore veszélyben van. Könyörtelen sajtósként
nem kevés ellenséget szerzett magának az évek során, de egy rémületes
zaklatóra még ő sem számított. Testőrre van szüksége, de az egyetlen férfi,
akitől segítséget kérhet, nemcsak hihetetlenül dögös, de köztudott,
hogy az ízlése a nők terén enyhén szólva is merész.
Chandlernek egy szabálya van: soha ne védj olyat, akit meg akarsz dugni.
De Alana esetében csapdába esik a munkája és az egyre növekvő libidója között.
Egyrészt Alanának szüksége van a segítségére. Másrészt viszont
Chandler másra sem vágyik, mint hogy megzabolázza a tüzes nőt,
és addig kínozza gyönyörrel, amíg teljesen alá nem veti magát.
Alana védelemre szorul, Chandler pedig kielégülésre.
De amint átlépik ezt a határt, elszabadul a pokol…
Bizsergető, romantikus és humorral teli történet

Life Immediately
Life Immediately is a pacy, dynamic debut collection containing all the preoccupations of Lily Blacksell’s work, from womanhood, to music, to the natural world and our calamitous dealings with it, to the calamity and comedy of human relationships, romantic or otherwise. Blacksell’s writing showcases the expansiveness of language, but also its failures: communication builds up and breaks down, geese honk, hangovers linger, in eclectic, formally confident poems where observation is balanced with insouciance.
