She Seems Fine to Me
‘‘She Seems Fine to Me reads like Nixon speaks – sparky, crackling with rage, but also, somehow, laugh-out-loud funny’ The Guardian Actress, check. Wife, check. Mother, check. In control of her own mind? Well... After a lifetime of getting everything ‘right’ – marrying her childhood sweetheart, starring in hits from Fresh Meat and Cranford to Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, having a much-longed-for baby – Kimberley Nixon’s brain broke. Or, more specifically, OCD won. ‘‘From the outside, I was coping. Inside, my brain was on fire.’She Seems Fine to Me is not a tidy recovery story. In this jaw-droppingly honest and darkly funny memoir, Kimberley shares what it’s like to become a mother while losing your sense of self, loving your child ferociously while being terrified of your own mind and the brutal gap between the rose-tinted version of motherhood we are sold and the more complicated reality. At once devastating and tender, Kim’s story will resonate with anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by motherhood, failed by the system or frightened by thoughts they were too ashamed to say out loud. It’s for anyone who has ever been told they looked fine when they were anything but.
Whiskies Galore
From the author of the bestselling 101 Whiskies to Try Before You Die. Island whiskies have long held a fascination and a powerful emotional draw on whisky drinkers the world over. Their special combination of heritage, mystique and remote location captures the imagination; their highly distinctive flavours are often imitated but seldom bettered.

Combining an expert’s knowledge of whisky with a travel writer’s fondness for anecdote, and with a keen description of place, he provides a special treat for all who love the islands’ magical drams. This new edition brings the acclaimed book up to date, capturing changes on the island whisky scene, including new and proposed distilleries such as Benbecula; Ardnahoe, Gartbreck Farm, Ili, Laggan Bay, Port Ellen and Portintruan (Islay); Orkney; Lerwick and Shetland Reel (Shetland); Isle of Tiree and others, along with Ian’s typically acerbic comments on whisky investment, luxury marketing and private cask sales.

Oliver is precocious, black and gay. He reads Baudelaire, plays with his pet peacock, eats smoked oysters and fends off the maid Della Mae whenever she gets the 'Nasties'.

When a psychic warlock named Maurice LeFleur comes to stay, however, promising to contact the ghost of Etta's dead son, their eccentric household starts to fall apart. First published in 1965, at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, this sparklingly witty debut novel is a radically hopeful vision of racial integration and sexual acceptance that was years ahead of its time.

Blueprints
Many artists are unaware of the mathematics that bubble beneath their craft, while some consciously use it for inspiration. Our instincts might tell us that these two subjects are incompatible forces with nothing in common, but what if we’re wrong?
Marcus du Sautoy, acclaimed mathematician and Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science at the University of Oxford, looks to art, music, design and literature to uncover the key mathematical structures that underpin both human creativity and the natural world.
Blueprints takes us from the earliest stone circles to the modernist architecture of Le Corbusier, from Bach’s circular compositions to Radiohead’s disruptive soundscapes, and from Shakespeare’s hidden numerical clues to the Dada artists who embraced randomness. Instead of polar opposites we find a complementary relationship that spans a vast historical and geographic landscape.
Whether we are searching for meaning in an abstract painting or deciphering poetry, there are blueprints everywhere: prime numbers, symmetry, fractals and the weirder worlds of Hamiltonian cycles and hyperbolic geometry. Nature similarly exploits these structures to achieve the wonders of our universe.
In this innovative and delightfully bold exploration of creativity, Marcus explains how we make art, why a creative mindset is vital for discovering new mathematics and how a fundamental connection to the natural world intrinsically links these two subjects.

Shadow Seer Tarot
Work with the “darchetypes” of your shadow self through the tarot• Uses alchemical reconciliation through opposition to illuminate the shadows in our lives for a more complete sense of self• Explores the dark side of the Major and Minor Arcana where the Fool becomes Hubris, the Magician becomes the Manipulator, and the Empress becomes the Cannibal Mother• Offers techniques and card spreads to investigate the “darchetypes” that lurk in our personal and collective unconsciousAs a tool for shadow work and divination, the Shadow Seer Tarot deck and guidebook give methods to see through the blind spots of ordinary tarot readings into the heart of what is often hidden. Using Hermetic principles, Maja D’Aoust defines oppositional energies as they relate to the cards of the tarot. With the alchemical method of reconciliation through opposition, she looks deeper into the familiar meanings of the Major and Minor Arcana to give readers insight into the shadow energies at work in their lives to reveal a path toward wholeness. By inverting the archetypes and revealing their shadow side, or “darchetypes,” Maja opens portals of understanding to the bad behaviors that we often attempt to conceal, repress, or deny. For example, shadow forms are represented in the suit of Cups by cards such as the Toxic Family, the Glutton, Addiction, and Betrayal. In the suit of Wands, the dark side of our drives and passions are exposed in cards like Propaganda, Slander, the False Martyr, and the Avoidant. Working with our secret shadows, rooted to the underworld and our ancestors, reveals deeper truths and a more balanced perception of the world.
Hunger and Thirst
FROM THE COSTA AWARD-WINNING, WOMEN’S PRIZE-SHORTLISTED AUTHOR OF UNSETTLED GROUND'An absolute masterpiece. Utterly absorbing, genuinely unsettling' JENNIE GODFREY, author of The List of Suspicious Things'Atmospheric, psychologically vivid, and unputdownable' ALICE WINN, author of In Memoriam1987: After a childhood trauma and years in and out of the care system, sixteen-year-old Ursula finds herself with a new job in the postroom of a local art school, a bed in a halfway house, and—delightfully— some new friends, including wild-child, Sue. When Ursula is invited to join a squat at The Underwood, a mysterious house whose owners met a terrible end, she can’t resist the promise of a readymade, hodgepodge family. But as Sue’s behaviour and demands become more extreme, Ursula who has always been hungry—for food—and more importantly for love, acceptance and belonging, carries out her friend’s terrible dare. It's a decision that will haunt her for decades. Thirty-six years later, Ursula is a renowned, reclusive sculptor living under a pseudonym in London when her identity is exposed by true-crime documentary-maker who is digging into an unsolved disappearance. But it is not only the filmmaker who has discovered Ursula’s whereabouts, and as her past catches up with her present, Ursula must work out whether the monsters are within her or without. From critically acclaimed and award-winning author, Claire Fuller, Hunger and Thirst is a compelling and chilling tale of loneliness and female friendship, of the dangerous line between wanting and needing, and of how far a person will go to truly belong. 'Unremittingly unsettling, propulsive and tense. Fuller excels at depicting outsiders, and writes with such precision and economy. Truly terrifying' Sarah Vaughan'Addictive, disturbing and suspenseful. It reminded me of Ruth Rendell/Barbara Vine at her most vivid. Ursula is a rare creation' Amanda Craig
