The Artist
PROVENCE, 1920
Ettie moves through the remote farmhouse, silently creating the conditions that make her uncle's artistic genius possible.
Joseph, an aspiring journalist, has been invited to the house. He believes he'll make his name by interviewing the reclusive painter, the great Edouard Tartuffe.
But everyone has their secrets. And, under the cover of darkness, Ettie has spent years cultivating hers.
Over this sweltering summer, everyone's true colours will be revealed.
Because Ettie is ready to be seen.
Even if it means setting her world on fire.
Watching Over Her
In an Italian monastery, an infamous sculptor lies on his death bed.
During Mimo's final hours, he reveals his life story: his impoverished childhood, his unlikely rise to fame and most importantly, his meeting with Viola, the daughter of a powerful aristocratic family.
Mimo and Viola are instantly drawn to one another. Together, they traverse the unrest of the twentieth century. While Mimo becomes a celebrated artist, Viola fights to claim her education and independence.
Over the decades, they will lose and find each other, but never will they give up on the love they share.

Atlas of Botany
Plants first emerged on a very different looking Earth 500 million years ago. As land masses moved, plants were brought together in fierce competition with one another, or separated to continue their lives in very different conditions. On this evolutionary journey, they developed ingenious strategies to disperse and extend their range, and increase their diversity.
Plants have populated almost every part of Earth’s land surface – from tropical zones to cracks in city pavements – and have fundamentally shaped Earth's natural regions. Mapping the changing conditions and continents of the ancient world and the biomes of the modern one, Atlas of Botany explores how plants have overcome the challenges of survival, and how they have interacted with pollinators and people along the way.
In the pages of this sumptuous botanical book, you will discover:
• A unique blend of information that brings plant science, geography, nature, and human history together for an unparalleled view of plant life on Earth
• The intricate and sometimes bizarre ways that plants have adapted to live everywhere
• A detailed understanding of where plants come from and the conditions they prefer to grow in
Produced in association with the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh this beautiful book combines the best elements of gardening books, science books, and nature books – featuring botanical illustrations, detailed photography, and clear, concise explanations – to tell the story of how plants evolved and survived – and continue to thrive.
The Dogs Gaze
What do dogs do in art? A dazzlingly original cultural history from the Cundill Prize-winning historian
Long before the phrase 'man's best friend' became common parlance, dogs were already standing beside us in art as in life. In The Dog's Gaze, the historian Thomas W. Laqueur invites us to explore why they feature more than any other animal in the ways in which we picture ourselves and our stories.
Dogs have been ubiquitous in the worldmaking of visual artists as far back as the Palaeolithic age. Looking across the western tradition, from Giotto to Goya and Rubens to Rego, Laqueur shows what their presence - as hunting partners, beloved friends and even conduits to the afterlife - reveals about our own ways of seeing and how we want to be remembered. Far from being mere motifs, dogs are an integral and intentional element of the images in which they appear: they provide narrative coherence; they look out and bear witness, often on the artist's behalf; they illuminate our understanding of morality and melancholy and some, like us, become celebrities. Indeed, as the author shows, dogs in art are our social doppelgängers, our companions in looking and being.
Richly illustrated and lovingly written, The Dog's Gaze is a unique visual history that examines the shared social history of our two species and offers fresh insights into the human condition through the eyes of our canine companions.
Clara & the Devil: Collection One
He’s tall, dark and infernal. She’s ready to be corrupted . . .
A deliciously dark tale of Faustian bargains and seduction, Clara & the Devil is a graphic novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Masters of Death, Olivie Blake and fan-favourite artist Little Chmura.
Clara thought she had the rest of her life figured out. But when an unusual tourist – tall, dark, and satanic – comes to town, Clara’s careful plans start to unravel fast. She thought she’d graduate college with the support of her best friend, Jonah. Then she’d marry her adoring boyfriend, work at her local library and settle down in her small seaside hometown. But now things seem far from simple.
And even while the stranger, who openly calls himself the devil, strikes up a situationship with Jonah, he continues to tempt Clara with reckless talk of power, ambition, and lust. Over the course of one sultry summer, tensions between Clara, Jonah and the devil mount to an intolerable degree. Clara is forced to confront the desires she’s kept secret her whole life, even from herself.
This mesmerizing, darkly romantic graphic novel kicks off a sultry series that explores artistry and power through the temptation of the seven deadly sins.
New York: A Literary Anthology
New York - the city that never sleeps - is brought to life in this vivid and lively anthology. From Staten Island to the Statue of Liberty, for centuries, authors and poets have been inspired to write about the heady highs and formidable lows of New York: its people, places and unique history.
One sweltering summer's day, Charles Dickens passes through Wall Street. James Weldon Johnson's anonymous narrator stumbles into a hidden bar full of poker players. Mark Twain recalls a dinner held in seven different languages. And Anais Nin declares that she is in love . . . with the city itself.
New York has lived through immense challenges yet remains irrepressible, filled with constant energy, movement and excitement. All these different perspectives are captured by the prose and poetry of a wonderful range of writers, including Audre Lorde, Walt Whitman, Edna St Vincent Millay, Henry James, Langston Hughes and many more.
Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library series of gorgeous pocket-sized travel paperbacks, featuring Treasures of Cornwall, Yorkshire: A Literary Landscape, London: An Illustrated Literary Companion and Paris: A Literary Anthology.

Other Peoples Lives
'Marriage was the biggest decision of their lives and yet they made it so lightly it was barely a decision at all'
As schoolgirls, Justine and her best friend Iseult dreamed of a future that revolved around marriage. They saw it as a happy ending, never imagining for a moment that the reality would be more complicated.
Coming up to fifty, they're still best friends. Justine has been married to Iseult's brother for twenty-five years and lives in her childhood home. Iseult has spent her adult life abroad, her marriage clearly unhappy for reasons she won't discuss.
When Justine's daughter suddenly announces her engagement, Justine is thrown into planning a big family wedding. Afraid that her daughter is making a mistake, she finds herself questioning the choices she and Iseult made decades earlier. This crisis of confidence tests Justine in new and unexpected ways.
From the Women's Prize longlisted author of Nothing But Blue Sky and The Home Scar, Other People's Lives is a captivating story about the decisions we make in a heartbeat, and their lifelong consequences.

As Turing's enemies close in, only one decision is possible: Nautilus must be kept hidden from the world, safe in the care of the only person he can trust.
Seventy-five years later, Annabelle McIntosh's life is upended when she learns she will become the latest custodian of the greatest secret of the modern age - Turing's Nautilus machine. Following in her family's footsteps, and bound by Turing's strict principles governing the use of his creation, Annabelle is soon faced with the same impossible choices. Nautilus has the power to prevent catastrophe, but the wrong decision could have devastating consequences.
When the stakes are at their highest, will using the machine save the world - or destroy it?

Ticho medzi slovami
Každý deň stretávame mnoho ľudí. Zažívame s nimi mnoho malých príbehov. Nenápadných. Väčšinu z nich si ani nevšimneme. Rozhovor starších ľudí pred panelákom, ďakovné gesto šoféra autobusu, nešťastného človeka v električke v ruke s listom od manželky…
Táto kniha je zbierkou skutočných príbehov zo života. Takých, aké sa dejú každému z nás. Sú to drobné okamihy radosti, dojatia, ľudskosti, prekvapenia. Možno v nich spoznáte seba, svoje deti, susedov, kolegov alebo celkom neznámych ľudí, ktorých ste stretli iba na niekoľko sekúnd.
Pretože život sa neskladá len z veľkých udalostí. Najväčšie príbehy sa často skrývajú v tých malých, „obyčajných“ chvíľach.
Viktor
Básnická kniha Viktor je v jistém slova smyslu sebevražedná – Kamil Bouška v ní plnou vahou svého autorského já masakruje obraz básníka jako empatické niterné bytosti a ušlechtilého komentátora světa. Potvrzuje tím příslušnost k cechu básníků prokletých. Viktor jako by se zrodil mezi stránkami Bouškovy všeobjímající trilogie Dokumenty a představoval jediný myslitelný způsob, jak na ni navázat. Je, a zároveň není jejím protipólem. Bouškova vášnivá, a přitom promyšlená básnická polemika se světem i se sebou samým pokračuje, riskantně, jakýmikoliv prostředky, do krajnosti.
