What to Make of a Life


THE QUESTION What to make of a life? It is a question we all wrestle with more than once. How do we find our way in the world? How do we make it past the cliffs, significant events that can radically change a life? How do we keep the inner fire burning bright, long and late? Inspired by relentless curiosity, Jim Collins devoted a decade to studying these questions and to minutely analysing those moments when life flips from clarity to confusion and casts us into a befuddling fog. THE STUDY His exploration compares various lives side by side, paired together at cliffs, and analyses the different choices made and divergent paths taken. • Two rock musicians confronting a future without the group that had brought them success. • Two suffragists achieving their epic goal and then left with the puzzle of what to do next. • Two public figures tainted by scandal having to make decisions about how to rebuild their lives. • Two figure skaters seeking new purpose when their Olympic careers come to an end. What emerges from Collins's extensive studies - of writers, actors, scientists, leaders, and many others - is a framework for understanding how individual lives can be built, sustained, and constantly renewed. THE FINDINGS By examining the long arc of these remarkable lives, Collins tackles life's questions. What does it take to: • Discover a deeply fulfilling role in life - one that you are naturally 'encoded' for - and then find a second one, if the first one ends? • Overcome a major cliff - a fracture point that forces choices about what's next and calls for you to reenvision the years to come? • Make your personal economics work so that you can focus on One Big Thing that feeds your inner fire? • Navigate the fog when you feel uncertain or even outright lost, and build confidence step by step • Minimise the impact of bad luck and ensure the maximum return on good luck? • Build personal momentum decade upon decade, so that your most creative and energetic years are spread across an entire lifetime? • Achieve the imperative to 'Know Thyself' and apply self-knowledge to each phase of life? THE TRANSFORMATION For the first time, Collins movingly chronicles his own story to reveal how undertaking this project transformed him, changing his thinking and reshaping his emotions in fundamental ways. 'After this study,' writes Collins, 'I will never look at life the same ever again.'

Cancer, Sex, and Intimacy


A practical and compassionate guide to navigating sexual intimacy during and after cancer. Cancer changes lives—but it doesn't erase the need for intimacy, connection, or sexual expression. In this essential guide, certified sexuality counselor Anne Katz, PhD, RN, offers a compassionate, candid, and evidence-based guide for individuals and couples navigating the often-overlooked sexual challenges brought on by cancer and its treatment. Dr. Katz addresses the full scope of situations survivors may face, including an altered body image, loss of desire, physical pain, emotional distance, relationship strain, and more. Although these changes are common, they are rarely discussed openly—and survivors are often left to figure things out alone, or not at all. Through the stories of couples she's worked with, Dr. Katz shows that while the path back to sexual intimacy may be complex, it is deeply worthwhile. With equal attention to anatomy and emotion, this book empowers readers to understand how cancer treatments impact sexual function, identity, and mental health—and how to reclaim pleasure and closeness at any stage of survivorship. Clear explanations, practical tools—including mindfulness and sensate focus exercises—and thoughtful commentary make this guide both personal and informative. Cancer, Sex, and Intimacy fills a critical gap in survivorship care and reminds readers that sexuality is not a luxury, but a fundamental part of quality of life.

Tifo: The Art of Football Fan Stickers


A lone PSG sticker on a North-London Street sign; the towering Maradona mural that watches over Naples. Europe’s fan-made canvases tell football’s biggest stories. Timed perfectly for World-Cup fever, Tifo: The Art of Football Fan Stickers—Revised & Expanded presents 500 plus images from over 100 clubs, printed on premium matte-art stock and bound in a linen-wrapped hardback with foil stamping. Stickerbomb founders Suridh Hassan and Ryo Sanada spent more than two years tracking down these graphics and the tales behind them: the unlikely bond between Boavista and Aberdeen, St Pauli’s anti-fascist iconography, Sevilla’s surprising love affair with Karl Marx, and how Parma became entangled in Europe’s biggest bankruptcy scandal. Insightful essays by award-winning journalist James Montague and Design Museum curator Eleanor Watson deepen the cultural and historical context. Equal parts visual archive and behind-the-scenes anecdote Tifo is the ultimate gift for ground-hoppers, quiz-night champions and anyone who bleeds club colours.

Late—Later


In this extraordinary debut collection, Kathleen Bridget Eva O’Hanlon dives deeply into a personal history that holds a mirror up to all the ways we piece together a lifetime of memories to weave a story of our many connected selves. Rich in references to literature, history, myth and culture, the poetry here remains accessible and resonant, clear-eyed, acutely observant and bristling with intelligent humour. We are reminded of the ways fragments of our pasts become defining moments – the casual remark to a child over a Crunchie bar that remains brutally clear decades later, the act of undemonstrative kindness that makes a child feel seen and valued in the simple gift of a wooden butter curler, the radical grandmother who ‘called a penis, a penis’, the life events and ordinary days that mark us – from almost marrying Casanova to childbirth, from our hungry ghosts to the way insomnia blurs into vision, threading loss and memory. It’s late and getting later, but still there is wit and life, still there is a legacy to leave and hope to insist on, memories that reshape both past and future. Still there is a credo – in the ‘great and final roar that is to come’ and in love.

Still, the walls she's built are strong, ensuring everyone only sees Paloma's sexy façade. Everyone except for Bennett.

Sublime Lungs


In Sublime Lungs Kate Noakes turns her attention to the breath. For the first time, she explores her lifelong asthma and explains the impact of this chronic and disabling condition. The breath and breathing are subjects for poems from many chronologies and geographies in this her ninth collection. ‘If one measure of a poet’s line is their breath, then you’d expect a poet with asthma to be a little curtailed by it. Not so Kate Noakes. Sublime Lungs finds poem after poem burgeoning out of the condition and leading her to find no trace of Keats in Rome, but allegories in witchcraft, Kent Marsh Frogs or Blade Runner, and to have a double-edged view of nature, which for her can be kill or cure. Whether in Machu Picchu or Boston Library, referencing Charles Olson in Gloucester, or relating to lovers and children, Noakes starts from the breath in her lungs and takes off into air.’ — MATTHEW CALEY‘From Egyptian breath cures to Katherine Mansfield’s inhaler to the thin air of the Rocky Mountains and Machu Picchu, Kate Noakes’ latest collection evokes all the elements of a life lived with asthma. With each successive poem, Sublime Lungs expands the scope of how this condition affects one’s experience of the world in poems by turns witty and moving. This is poetry that attunes us to the nuances of our own embodiment.’ — CARRIE ETTER
