Mother Mary Comes To Me
The incredible first memoir from the Booker-winning radical icon Arundhati Roy, author of The God of Small Things
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
SHORTLISTED FOR WATERSTONES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025
SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMENS PRIZE FOR NONFICTION 2026
'Heart-smashed' by the death of the mother she ran from at age eighteen and shaken by the intensity of her response, Arundhati Roy began this remarkable memoir - a soaring account, both intimate and inspiring, of how the author became the person and the writer she is: shaped by circumstance, but above all by her relationship to her extraordinary, singular mother, Mary, who she describes as 'my shelter and my storm'.
With the scale, sweep and depth of her novels, and the passion, political clarity and warmth of her essays, Mother Mary Comes to Me is an ode to freedom, a tribute to thorny love and savage grace - a memoir like no other.
A Taste For Murder
For Detective Chief Inspector Joe Mottram, a summer on the island of Capri was meant to be an opportunity to reconnect with his troubled teenage daughter, Angelica, and his Italian in-laws, after his wife's Francesca's death by a hit-and-run.
But when a British tourist is found dead and a member of his late wife's family is accused of murder, Joe is pulled back into a world of police cells, crime scenes and local corruption. As he discovers more about the island, he realises it holds the answers to Francesca's death, which may not have been a tragic accident after all.
The Hallmarked Man (Cormoran Strike 8)
A dismembered corpse is discovered in the vault of a silver shop. The police initially believe it to be that of a convicted armed robber - but not everyone agrees with that theory. One of them is Decima Mullins, who calls on the help of private detective Cormoran Strike as she's certain the body in the silver vault was that of her boyfriend - the father of her newborn baby - who suddenly and mysteriously disappeared.
The more Strike and his business partner Robin Ellacott delve into the case, the more labyrinthine it gets. The silver shop is no ordinary one: it's located beside Freemasons' Hall and specialises in Masonic silverware. And in addition to the armed robber and Decima's boyfriend, it becomes clear that there are other missing men who could fit the profile of the body in the vault.
As the case becomes ever more complicated and dangerous, Strike faces another quandary. Robin seems increasingly committed to her boyfriend, policeman Ryan Murphy, but the impulse to declare his own feelings for her is becoming stronger than ever.
A gripping, wonderfully complex novel which takes Strike and Robin's story to a new level, The Hallmarked Man is an unmissable read for any fan of this unique series.
Going Nuclear
What if climate change isn't an environmental challenge, but an energy challenge?
This visionary book urges us to rethink the path to net zero, arguing that the solution to climate change lies not simply in replacing fossil fuels with renewables, but in fully embracing another energy source that emits zero carbon dioxide: nuclear power.
Dr Tim Gregory dismantles the conventional wisdom that renewables are completely 'green', and debunks myths surrounding waste and radiation, demonstrating that nuclear power is not only reliable, safe and potent, but the most environmentally responsible way to harvest energy. He calls for decarbonisation to be the twenty-first century's Apollo programme, making the bold case for an alternative, sustainable and prosperous future.
Ferment
An inspiring guide to the life-changing power of fermentation from world-leading gut scientist and no. 1 bestselling author Tim Spector
From kombucha and kefir to sourdough, miso and coffee, Professor Tim Spector dispels the myths around fermented foods. He explains what fermented foods are, what to look for when buying them, how to make them at home, and why adding simple ferments to everyday meals can transform your gut health and overall well-being.
Blending cutting-edge science with practical, reassuring advice, Ferment shows how small changes to what's on your plate can make a big difference to your health.
The Revolutionists
A thrilling and unprecedented account of the radicalism and political extremism that gripped the 1970s - a seismic decade that transformed the modern world.
In the 1970s, a network of extremists terrorised the West with intricately planned plane hijackings and hostage-takings. Among them were the glamorous Leila Khaled, hard-drinking Carlos the Jackal, and radical leftists of the Baader-Meinhof Gang, all united by their hatred of Israel, capitalism and 'Western imperialism'. Their audacious attacks brought governments to their knees and glued nations to their TV screens.
Drawing on decades of research, declassified and secret documents, and first-hand interviews with hijackers, spies, witnesses and victims, Jason Burke takes us inside these often-deadly operations. In this underground realm of loyalty, betrayal and commitment to radical change at any cost, he reveals the dark origins of our fractured world today.
Against Identity
A philosopher explains why the search for identity is meaningless, and how we should escape the self
Modern life encourages us to pursue the perfect identity. Whether we aspire to become the best lawyer or charity worker, life partner or celebrity influencer, we emulate exemplars that exist in the world - hoping it will bring us happiness. But this often leads to a complex game of envy and pride. We achieve these identities but want others to imitate us. We disagree with those whose identities contradict ours - leading to polarisation and even violence. And yet when they thump against us, we are ashamed to ring hollow.
In Against Identity, philosopher Alexander Douglas seeks an alternative wisdom. Searching the work of three thinkers - ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, Dutch Enlightenment thinker Benedict de Spinoza, and 20th Century French theorist René Girard - he explores how identity can be a spiritual violence that leads us away from truth.
Through their worlds and radically different cultures, we discover how, at moments of historical rupture, our hunger for being grows: and yet, it is exactly these times when we should make peace with our indeterminacy and discover the freedom of escaping our selves.
Togetherness
An awe-inspiring exploration of how symbiosis can change the way we understand our world, ourselves and our future
'Absolutely enthralling' BILL BRYSON
'A joyful book, of hope and wonder, which celebrates community as the true key to success in nature' STEVE BRUSATTE
From evolution to capitalism, 'survival of the fittest' has shaped our view of the world. But we got it wrong - and our mistake has brought us to the brink.
For the history of life on Earth is much more than a story of competition. The natural world has been forged and sustained by small miracles of co-operation between animals and plants, insects and fungi, fish and bacteria - these partnerships are ubiquitous, lifelong and an essential guide for a better future.
In Togetherness, Rowan Hooper reveals the intimate connectedness of nature through these remarkable stories of symbiosis. From the female wasp venturing deep inside a fig and the intricate relationship between corals and the algae that sustain them to the symbiotic gut microbes that influence our moods, he explores how co-operation is fundamental to life itself and to protecting our shared future.
Togetherness will change the way you see the world, our place in it and our obligation to its hidden wonders.
Lamborghini
Since the unveiling of the Lamborghini Miura – the world’s first V12-powered mid-engine road car – at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show, this marque from Sant’Agata Bolognese with the raging bull emblem has been one of the most famous and desirable purveyors of the supercar. Valentino Balboni, legendary former Lamborghini test driver, has been famously quoted as saying “Lamborghini is a carmaker that makes engines, the job of the designers was to design the engine cover.” Yet, in its almost six decades long history, the supercar maker has constructed just four different engines: the extraordinary Giotto Bizzarrini-designed V12 that powered Lamborghini’s flagships for the best part of five decades, a promising V8 that almost brought the company to its knees, a V10 that uses many Audi components and has been the mainstay of the marque in the last two decades, and lastly another newer V12, powering the Aventador. However, what has really distinguished Lamborghini, has been a series of models with remarkable, groundbreaking shapes, each one a veritable design revolution. Cars like the Miura, the Espada, the Urraco, the Countach and the Diablo astounded and startled automotive fans just as much by their daring shape, form and aesthetic purity, as by their second-to-none engineering and trendsetting packaging. This book celebrates the design history of Lamborghini through numerous period reports and previously unpublished images, delving into the extraordinary shapes and the intrepid personalities who made Lamborghini what it is today. .
Bacon Disfigured
A collection of essays that opens up new connections between Francis Bacon's art and the ideas of key thinkers.
Francis Bacon is undoubtedly one of the most important artists of the twentieth century. In his paintings, Bacon radically disfigures his subjects, making them all but unrecognizable. This is no mere stylistic quirk, but the expression of a deeply held aesthetic vision. For Bacon, the essence of a subject can only be captured in the distorted recording of its appearance. His disfigurations are therefore, as he himself says, attempts to bring back the intensity of reality, to paint images that are 'truer than the literal truth'.
In this groundbreaking collection of essays, some of today's leading philosophers and psychoanalytic theorists go to work on Bacon. They do to the artist what the artist does to his own figures: they disfigure and distort him, twisting and turning him into something new and previously unseen. This strategy of disfiguration blasts Bacon out of his traditional contexts, opening up new connections between his art and the ideas of key thinkers, including Kant, Marx, Nietzsche, Baudelaire, Freud, Canguilhem, Genet, Lacan, Adorno and Althusser. The results are revelatory, allowing us to transform our understanding not only of Bacon but also of modernism itself.
Shelby Cobras
Carroll Shelby's creation of the Cobra automobile during 1961-1962 transformed an aging British sports car into a 1965 World Manufacturers GT Championship winner for Shelby American. Today, the Cobra is still one of the most recognized automobiles in the world. This book narrates the work required to develop the first production Ford-powered AC Ace 3.6 roadsters that today are referred to as Mark I Leaf Spring Cobras. Seasoned Cobraphiles, novice enthusiasts and especially those who had the foresight to buy the cars, will enjoy the hundreds of fascinating snippets and backstories. The author has researched each of the 125 production Mark I Cobras built and conducted several hundred interviews with the people connected with each car. This endeavor uncovered unknown histories and facts, as well as hundreds of previously unpublished photographs and documents. Despite the lion's share of accolades going directly to Carroll Shelby and the staff at Shelby American for the success of the Cobra, some portion of that credit rightfully belongs to the hardworking craftsmen employed at AC Cars in the 1960s. The Cobra could not have been created without them. Virtually everything except the Mark I Cobra's Ford engine and transmission had been hand-built by old-world craftsman in England. That partnership reflects the best of the Anglo-American spirit and produced one of the most iconic automobiles ever built.
Čo hľadal Jakub pod posteľou? (a čo všetko sa mu tam prihodilo)
Vyzerá to na pokojný deň v detskej izbe. Jakub sa hrá s vyklápacím autíčkom, v ktorom preváža sklenené guľôčky. No vtom sa stane niečo strašné. Nákladiak sa prevráti a guľôčky sa zakotúľajú pod posteľ. A tam je veru poriadna tma. Jakub sa bojí – ale aj tak tam vlezie. A zrazu, verte-neverte, objaví čosi úžasné.
Zistí, že pod posteľou žijú Sliňúch, Plackoš alebo aj strašidelná Snežimama, nehovoriac o množstve bláznivých miest. Počuli ste už o Hlavnej stanici vodných autobusov či o Skanzene múch?
Kto má rád pestrý svet plný neobyčajných udalostí a vtipných bytostí, nebude sa pri tomto diele, ktoré je rozprávkou aj interaktívnou obrázkovou knihou zároveň, ani na chvíľku nudiť. Precvičí si nielen pozornosť, ale aj brušné svaly, pretože o zábavu veru núdza nebude.
Odporúčame deťom a dospelým od 5 rokov.
Humus
Čo sa stane, keď sa zo života stratí smrť? V zašlom malomeste, kde obyvatelia, zväčša načrtnutí jediným ťahom pera, dokola opakujú bezvýznamnosti, sa udeje zvláštna vec: Gabiru, absurdný muž s magnetickými žabími očami, namieša elixír, ktorý skoncuje so starobou a nadobro zaženie smrť. Fiktívny denník pokrývajúci približne rok v živote – koho vlastne? – odkrýva najtemnejšie zákutia ľudskej duše: pokrytectvo, chamtivosť, bolesť, beznádej, sny i nehu. Otázky týkajúce sa Boha, svedomia či povinnosti kladie tak bezprostredne, až má čitateľ pocit, že by na ne mal odpovedať sám. Humus je neobyčajne živá kniha – tak živá, až ju Brando dvakrát do hĺbky prepracoval a dal jej dva rôzne konce. Už celé storočie inšpiruje generácie spisovateľov a hrôza, sen i neha, ktoré do nej vložil, sa nás stále dotýkajú rovnako bytostne.
Ve stínu hory
DLOUHO PŘED UDÁLOSTMI UKRADENÝCH JAZYKŮ.
V indiánské rezervaci Cold Valley, ve stínu tiché a zlověstné hory Pale Peak, se Onwé Lopez zmítá mezi dvěma světy.
Ve dne sleduje, jak se jeho lid odvrací od původních tradic i víry a hledá útočiště v křesťanství. V noci ho však sužují děsivé sny – noční můry o Akánthovi, příteli z dětství, který před desítkami let zmizel beze stopy.
Vinou nečekané tragédie dorazí do města neznámý muž. Přináší svědectví o smrti a nevysvětlitelné zkáze. V temných ulicích městečka Autumn Ridge se začne potulovat přízrak, který po nocích nahlíží do oken a lační po lidských duších.
Z jeskyní hluboko pod horou Pale Peak k Onwému začnou šeptat hlasy. Vábí ho do nitra hory a slibují návrat všech, které miloval.
Ve stínu hory je příběh města, v němž se bolestně střetává minulost s přítomností a které padá za oběť pradávnému zlu, jež nemělo být nikdy probuzeno.
In Defence of Populism
'Populist' is now most commonly used as a term of abuse. Populists, we are repeatedly told, are xenophobic ignoramuses offering irrational, emotive solutions to complex problems. But is this tru? rank Furedi argues that this is a self-serving narrative that owes more to the desire of elites to protect their own power and interests than it does to the truth. The widespread disdain expressed towards populism in the media and by many academics is in fact poorly concealed contempt towards the idea of popular sovereignty and democratic decision-making. Populism is not equivalent to any specific ideology, as populist politicians vary greatly in their substantive views, but it is rather a broad disposition towards public life that stresses the value of giving the ordinary citizen a genuine voice in political decision-making. Attacks on 'populism' most commonly reveal the desire of those who run our institutions to keep real authority in the hands of unaccountable elites who veil their power under the guise of 'expertise'. This bracing defence of basic democratic values by one of our most fearless polemicists should be read by anyone who mistakes the complacent assurances of our elite for the wisdom of our betters.
Menopauzaagy
Az XX-agy szerzőjének új könyve
"Végre egy könyv, amelyből megérthetjük, mi történik agyunkban a változókor alatt. A szerző gyakorlati útmutatásaival ezt az időszakot tudatosan, egészségesen és felkészülten élhetjük meg."
Iványi Orsolya menopauza edukációs aktivista, a Magyar Menopausa Társaság vezetőségi tagja
A menopauzára tekinthetünk úgy, mint mindennek a befejezésére, de úgy is, mint egy új kezdetre - rajtunk is múlik, miként éljük meg.
A menopauza és a perimenopauza számos kellemetlen tünettel jár: hőhullámokkal, álmatlansággal, "agyi köddel". Az ösztrogénszint csökkenése nem csupán a nők testhőmérsékletét, hangulatát és emlékezetét befolyásolja, hanem fokozhatja a későbbi életkorban bekövetkező kognitív hanyatlás kockázatát is. A Menopauzaagy bemutatja a változókori panaszok hátterében álló összetett hormonális folyamatokat, amelyekben az agy központi szerepet játszik. Dr. Lisa Mosconi ismerteti a korszerű hormonpótló terápiák, a hormonális fogamzásgátlás és az életmódbeli változtatások kedvező hatásait. Eloszlatja azt a mítoszt, hogy a változókor mindennek a végét jelenti, és hangsúlyozza: a menopauza körüli időszak átmeneti jelenség, a női lét természetes szakasza.
A Menopauzaagy hiánypótló, teljes szívemből ajánlom mindenkinek.
Naomi Watts színésznő

A New York-i Weill Cornell Orvostudományi Egyetem Alzheimer-megelőzési programjának igazgatójaként indította el úttörő kezdeményezését, amely a női agyat vizsgálja, és azt, hogyan befolyásolják a nemi különbségek az agy öregedését és az Alzheimer-kór kockázatát. A The Times szerint korunk legbefolyásosabb 17 női tudósának egyike. Az ELLE magazin 2022-ben beválasztotta a világ megváltoztatásáért legtöbbet tevő 100 nő közé.
