Praise for Sean Pritchard''s first book, Outside In:''I devoured this sumptuously British step-by-gorgeous-step guide to when to seed, plant and pluck in a single sitting.'' - Richard E. Grant''Outside In: A Year of Growing & Displaying is that rare thing - the most ridiculously beautiful coffee-table book that is also a mine of useful information when it comes to what to grow when for year-round cut flowers. His interiors aren''t too shabby, either.'' - India Knight''Outside In is not only stuffed full of practical advice and tips on nurturing a garden and displaying plants and flowers in the home, it is also a thing of romantic beauty. Sean''s overflowing, colourful arrangements have put a smile on my face countless times: he has a natural ability to put together flowers, books, fabrics and assorted treasures in a way that feels effortless, charming and deeply personal.'' - Luke Edward Hall''Armed with flower-whisperer Sean A. Prichard''s new book, mom can bedeck her home with backyard-blooms year-round-or just luxuriate in the pretty pictures while sipping a nice cuppa.'' - Wall Street Journal''Inventive, considered, and thoughtful design.'' - House & Garden***Sean Pritchard''s hotly anticipated new book, Atmosfloric: The magic of flower colour in home and garden explores how to grow flowers for colour and bring them indoors for visual impact and atmosphere. The garden allows us to play with colour. Unlike the colours in our interiors, colour in the garden is fleeting and fickle, and with that comes an exciting opportunity to experiment with a changing performance of colourmonth after month and to bring those colours indoors for constantly changing displays.Colours are considered in four mood-based chapters: Hot, Soothing, Neutral and Romantic. For each chapter Sean reveals his favourite flowers to grow (with plant lists and inspirational planting plans) and shows them in a range of inspirational interiors. As with Outside In the photography is by the author, who has photographed some highly sought-after gardens and interiors in England and France.Sean also takes a personal look at colour theory and explores the relationship that gardeners and gardener-artists have had with colour through history.

Yardsticks For Failure
'A hilarious and original voice' Josh Widdicombe'Delightfully smart and impossibly charming' Dolly Alderton'His writing is as unpredictable and brilliant as he is' Sophie Duker'I've got nothing but love for Mr Ivo Graham' Frankie BoyleYardsticks For Failure is the story of the most frantic two years of Ivo Graham's already quite frantic life, 2022-2024, two years of tasks and tears and everything in between. The amount of stuff Ivo packs into these two years will excite you and exhaust you, enthral you and appal you, and many more carefully choreographed pairs of verbs if you'd like this sentence to be even longer. There are some short sentences in this book, such as this one. And this one. But there are some long old sentences too, sentences that take you on whole thrilling adventures all by themselves, sentences that are rich in music and memory, mischief and mourning, sentences that bring you right alongside Ivo in his train-chasing, gamefacing,name-dropping, heart-stopping chaos of an existence. No one lives like Ivo does, and no one writes like him either. There are failures in his life but this book is not one of them. Come on in. 'Not a complete waste of his school fees' Jenny Eclair'A trash man from a trash family' James Acaster
The Wondrous Life and Loves of Nella Carter
When Death comes to claim Nella May Carter, she catches His interest with her capacity to find beauty and love even amidst the hell of slavery. So Death - bored, disgusted by humanity, and believing the Earth would be greatly improved should humans no longer exist - lures Nella into a Faustian bargain: the chance at immortal life if she proves that Death is mistaken. The price: Nella must entertain his fascination and challenge his beliefs until he is satisfied... or surrender herself - and the entire human race - to him forever. Nella's solution is to never stop travelling and writing, documenting the beauty in every place and person she encounters - from writing in Victorian ladies' tattlers and reporting in Gilded Age New York, to penning bestselling novels and memoirs under countless noms de plume. Nella experiences joy and loss, passion and pain; she finds love in its many forms with friends, partners, and lovers. All the while, Death is watching - and waiting for her to surrender. Nella is almost ready to concede to Death when she meets a handsome professor. Tired of deception, desperate for a real connection, Nella begins to tell him her story - centred on her greatest romances over the centuries. And, in the telling, it becomes clear that Nella's own story might be the greatest love story of them all.

When they meet again in Dublin, fifteen years later, Ian is Brother Eugene, a Benedictine monk searching for meaning in devotion, while Tommy is navigating fame, divorce, and his familiar restlessness. The old spark is there—but so are the questions: what did they mean to each other, and why does it still matte? t Tommy’s sixtieth birthday, with illness casting its shadow, the truths long buried rise to the surface. Tender and devastating, Hey Man is a meditation on the mysteries of male friendship and the bonds that shape a life. An ode to male friendship—wise, wry, poetic, and deeply moving.

One Leg on Earth
''An astonishing talent'' Lauren Groff, author of The Vaster Wilds''One of my favourite living writers'' Jeff VanderMeerTwenty-three-year-old Yosoye arrives in Lagos from her smaller home city of Ibadan, ready to begin her life. With a brand-new degree in communications, she is placed on an internship at a high-end architectural firm developing exclusive waterfront housing throughout the city. For introverted Yosoye, the glossy assignment is a chance to spread her wings, put her talents to use and envision a full and rewarding future. But Yosoye''s idyllic vision of her future in Lagos soon begins to seem naive. Something is not right about the waterfront building project the architectural firm are working on, but no-one will give her satisfactory answers. And then there is the bizarre epidemic sweeping through the city, of pregnant women drawn to water and jumping tragically to their deaths, in rivers, lakes and the sea. Which comes to seem even more chilling when Yosoye realises that after a chance encounter in her first weeks in Lagos, she is pregnant.A vibrant and atmospheric evocation of modern Lagos and the supernatural currents which swirl beneath it, One Leg on Earth is a story about the promises of capitalism and ambition, about individuality and community, and about motherhood and the mysterious lure of the abyss - from a powerful and lyrical new voice.
