The Island


A masterclass in atmospheric suspense and domestic uneaseIt begins as an ordinary day of frayed nerves and suburban fractiousness. Following a sharp argument with his wife, Graham sets out across London with his young daughter, Jasmine. It is a journey born of a need for space – on the surface, a simple drive to clear the air. But as they move through the city, the familiar begins to feel inexplicably foreign. The motorways are tightening. The air is changing. On every screen, in every shop window, a recurring image of a remote island haunts the broadcast – an image that pulls Graham back toward a childhood he has tried to outrun. As the horizon darkens and the path home becomes increasingly uncertain, Graham is forced to navigate the shifting boundary between a father’s protective instinct and a world that is rapidly losing its grip on the known. The Island is a devastatingly controlled novella from one of the UK’s finest poets. It is a story of what remains when the structures of the everyday fall away: the memories we cannot escape, and the desperate, quiet love between a father and his child.

''A countryman cleaves earth with his crooked plough. Such is the labourof his life. So he sustains his native land ...''Virgil''s affectionate poem of the land does not admit brief excerpts, any more than the labour of the farmer can easily be shortened.

The Scoop


ONE NEEDS A STORY. THE OTHER IS THE STORY. THE FALLOUT COULD RUIN THEM BOTH. No story sells faster than a celebrity's downfall. . . Washed-up journalist Frankie Miller is desperate. Since losing her dream job at a glossy magazine, she's been drowning in rejection letters and overdue bills while eating cereal for dinner. So, when she's offered a role at The Scoop, a notorious tabloid website run by tyrannical editor David Brown, she can't afford to say no - even if it means swallowing her pride for clicks. Besides, it's just a temporary means to an end. Nothing more. But the deeper Frankie dives into the cutthroat world of clickbait, the blurrier the line between ambition and morality becomes. And when she breaks a story that humiliates a beloved pop star, the fallout is more explosive than she ever imagined - for both of them. In an industry where reputation is currency and outrage sells, how far is Frankie willing to go - and how much is she willing to lose - to win at this ruthless game? Sharp, witty, and unflinchingly bold, The Scoop pulls back the curtain on tabloid culture and the human toll of the 24/7 news cycle, perfect for fans of Yellowface, The List and Succession. PRAISE FOR THE SCOOP:'A timely, commanding, blistering debut, this one's sure to leave a lasting mark' ASHLEY TATE'Quickly becomes tough to look away from' NATALIE SUE'Smart and savage...a devastating satire' RUTH MADIEVSKY'Snappy, fun, and set in the always-fascinating world of New York media.

Wildly different


The globe-trotting tales of five women who fought for the right to enjoy the wild places of the earth. For millennia the ‘wild’ was a place heroic men went on epic quests. Women were prevented from joining them, either through physical control or powerful myths about what would happen if they ventured beyond the city wall or village boundary. So how did women claim their place in the remote and lovely parts of our planet? In Wildly different, historian Sarah Lonsdale traces the lives of five women who fought for the right to work in, enjoy and help to save the earth’s wild places. We’ll meet Mina Hubbard, who outraged the exploration community when she stepped into a canoe in northern Labrador. Evelyn Cheesman, who became the first female keeper of insects at London Zoo. Dorothy Pilley, who shocked polite society by donning men’s climbing breeches. Ethel Haythornthwaite, who helped make the Peak District Britain’s first National Park. And Wangari Maathai, who started a movement to plant millions of trees across sub-Saharan Africa. Drawing on interviews with Sir David Attenborough, Wangari Maathai’s daughter and others, Lonsdale recounts the women’s adventures across five continents. Evocative and inspiring, this book shows how women can be ‘wildly different’. -- .

Pomona's Orchard


Pomona’s Orchard, Adrian Blamires’ third collection, is dedicated to the arts of peace. Its tutelary spirits include Caliban tending to the dying Prospero, a great-aunt rescuing cats and dogs in the Blitz, the enlightened schoolmaster to an orphaned John Keats, and Pomona, Roman goddess of fruitful propagation, as the genius loci of a Herefordshire orchard. Miracles of love and healing are conjured in the face of violence and rapacity. Lament and dissent are sounded, alongside poems of witty, sensual profusion. The collection closes with a Tudor-themed sequence which presents pressing encounters – highly politicized, highly eroticized – between the Virgin Queen and her subjects. Drawing on Elizabethan lyric, symbolism, realia and innuendo, the poet offers a tragicomic vision of queen and country, a resonant blend of history and myth.
