The House of Broken Things


She''s sleeping like a fairy tale girl, before the storyteaches girls like her a lesson.In The House of Broken Things, Kim Moore interrogates motherhood as a transformative experience in all its complexity and ambivalence. Moore conjours an intimate atmosphere of haunting domesticity, treating the poem as a kind of secular prayer: the worldly and otherworldy held in the same breath. These poems are a nuanced and sometimes painfully honest portrait of life as a new mother, and her hopes and terrors for a daughter growing up in a world of violence towards women and girls. Throughout, fears and tensions are paired seamlessly with moments of great tenderness, wit and revelation: these poems always offer a way out.The House of Broken Things is a thrilling new work from one of our boldest and most exciting poets.

Hook, Line, and Sinker Deluxe Collector's Edition


AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES AND #1 USA TODAY BESTSELLERNow available in a gorgeous hardcover Deluxe Collector’s Edition, Hook, Line, and Sinker, featuring sprayed edges with stenciled artwork, full-color designed endpapers, and a foil stamped case. In this fan favorite follow-up to It Happened One Summer, Tessa Bailey delivers another deliciously fun rom-com about a former player who accidentally falls for his best friend while trying to help her land a different man. King crab fisherman Fox Thornton has a reputation as a sexy, carefree flirt. Everyone knows he’s a guaranteed good time—in bed and out—and that’s exactly how he prefers it. Until he meets Hannah Bellinger. She’s immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his… personality? And wants to be friends? Bizarre. But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is. Now, Hannah’s in town for work, crashing in Fox’s spare bedroom. She knows he’s a notorious ladies’ man, but they’re definitely just friends. In fact, she’s nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life. Armed with a few tips from Westport’s resident Casanova, Hannah sets out to catch her coworker’s eye… yet the more time she spends with Fox, the more she wants him instead. As the line between friendship and flirtation begins to blur, Hannah can’t deny she loves everything about Fox, but she refuses to be another notch on his bedpost. Living with his best friend should have been easy. Except now she’s walking around in a towel, sleeping right across the hall, and Fox is fantasizing about waking up next to her for the rest of his life and… and… man overboard! He’s fallen for her, hook, line, and sinker. Helping her flirt with another guy is pure torture, but maybe if Fox can tackle his inner demons and show Hannah he’s all in, she’ll choose him instead?

Dr. Freud does not tolerate lateness, and the men invited to join his new society sense they are on the brink of something momentous.

The Scramble for America


'Shows how a scrappy band of 13 colonies fought and bought its way to superpower size' THE TIMES For seven years after the Declaration of Independence the United States had no internationally recognized boundaries and no defined sovereign territory. It was more an idea than a country. Then in 1783 the United States began to expand at a staggering rate, adding territory equivalent to the landmass of modern Bulgaria each year, every year, for eighty-four years. By 1867— less than a century after its founding—the United States laid claim to some 3.6 million square miles of land on the North American continent. How did it happen? In The Scramble for America, historian Clement Knox uncovers the history of these epic years. It is the story of how the United States exploded out of its original confines on the Eastern seaboard, breaching the Appalachians, the Great Plains, the Rockies and extending its reach to the Rio Grande, the Florida Keys, and the Bering Strait, eventually straddling two oceans and commanding some of the most valuable lands on the planet. In vivid prose he recounts how a cast of settlers, prospectors, and soldiers, hungry for land, motivated by visions of gold, and inspired by the rhetoric of national greatness, spread out across the North American continent, making history as they advanced and bringing violence and dispossession in their wake. The principal currents of American history are all interwoven with these years of conquest: the origins of the revolution, the tragedy of the Native Americans, the spread of slavery, and the crisis of the union that culminated in the Civil War. Those turbulent years of rampaging continental expansion in the nineteenth century teed up the United States for global supremacy in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The creation of the continental United States was one of the great events in modern history and continues to shape our world. Published to mark the 250th anniversary of American Independence, this book offers a retelling of its national history like no other.

1996


“Dominic clearly remembers more about the 90s than I do.” – Zoe Ball I was in the right place at exactly the right time. I was handed a precious backstage pass to this magical period, as a chronicler of some of its most significant moments, of its wild protagonists, whether in music, entertainment, fashion, football, art or politics. I had a front-row seat for that insane decade, but it was 1996 that was the period’s stunning apex. Oasis at Maine Road and Knebworth, the births of Robbie Williams the solo star and the Spice Girls, the Euro 96 football tournament and ‘Three Lions’, the rise of New Labour and Tony Blair. I was there for the lot. 1996. Britpop ruled the airwaves. The tabloids framed reality long before Instagram.Football was finally coming home. Tony Blair was learning to play rock star – and rock stars were learning they could play politics. Everyone was partying hard, and Britain was the coolest place on earth. Showbiz reporter Dominic Mohan wasn’t watching the party from afar – he was in the room. Backstage at Knebworth with Oasis. In strip clubs with Robbie Williams. On the phone to Bowie. On the receiving end of Spice Girls gossip, Gallagher gobbiness and tabloid-era chaos. From Euro ’96 euphoria to Brit Awards anarchy, from rave culture to New Labour, Mohan witnessed the moment the UK went from scruffy indie island to global cultural powerhouse. Part memoir, part cultural autopsy and part riotous tour through the 90s and its greatest year, 1996 is a jaw-dropping front-row seat to the madness, the music, the football, and the politics that reshaped Britain – and created legends along the way. Three decades on, Mohan returns to the year everything peaked, and asks: what the hell happened, why did it matter, and can it ever happen again? If you were there – this book will feel like going home. If you weren’t – you’ll wish you had been.

The Glass Mountain


A gripping, vividly told journey into a family's wartime past, from the bestselling author of The Ruin of All Witches ‘Endearingly personal, honest and reflective … invites you to rethink where memory ends and history begins’ Dominic Sandbrook, The Times, Books of the Year 'As I finished his book, I began to see my own family’s past through his glass mountain' Ian Ellison, Literary Review Malcolm Gaskill knew two things about his great-uncle Ralph’s wartime adventures: he’d been a prisoner in Italy, and he’d cut his way out of a train with a knife and fork. Apart from that, he’d faded into family folklore, lost to view. Until, one hot afternoon in an English country garden, a chance conversation set Gaskill on his uncle’s trail…What Ralph really did in the war was, he discovers, even more extraordinary than the exaggerations of family myth. From last-ditch fighting in the Libyan desert and incarceration in a Puglian prisoner-of-war camp, to desperate, dramatic escapes and the assuming of an entirely new identity among the peasants and partisans of the Italian Alps, Gaskill traces a life transformed by conflict, while lifting the curtain on a long-forgotten episode of the Second World War. Yet The Glass Mountain is about more than war: it’s a haunting exploration of what it means to encounter the past, and how we remember, forget and recover it. As he follows his uncle’s path through dusty archives and the landscapes, towns and villages of present-day Italy, Gaskill finds himself confronted by questions that go to the heart of how we think about the people who came before us: Why do stories matter? How much of the past can ever be true?

Bosorky


Román polské autorky Agnieszky Szpily Bosorky může na mnohé působit jako zjevení. Drzost, otevřenost a naštvanost, s níž píše, se nejspíš nebude všem líbit a mnozí čtenáři či čtenářky ji nemusejí skousnout. Ovšem fakt, že se v roce 2022 dostal do dvacítky nominovaných knih na prestižní literární ocenění NIKE, svědčí o tom, že minimálně polské kritiky a jistou vrstvu polských čtenářů zaujal. Knihou se prolínají dva příběhy – jeden ze současnosti, druhý ze středověku. V obou vystupují výrazné ženské postavy: generální ředitelka velké společnosti Anna Šibnerová a Mathilde Spalt zvaná Zemitá, která šíří nauku o Staropanně.
