Overspill
Tender, brutal, devastating, OVERSPILL is the debut novel from incredible new literary talent, Charlotte Paradise, perfect for fans of Sally Rooney and Coco Mellors ********************************************* Sara doesn’t live a reckless, wild London life. She does live with a wildness, though, an unrestrainable and ferocious flurry of thoughts. She wants nothing more than to love fiercely and impolitely, even if the thought of being physical conjures anxiety as well as yearning. When she starts dating Miles, they don’t touch. She desires him, but she knows the limits of her body. Miles respects her boundaries, though he longs for them to melt away. As they grow closer, she must ask herself, how do you love someone when you feel like your body is not your own? ****************************************** Your favourite authors love OVERSPILL… 'Paradise brings the reader on a journey of both pleasure and pain' Madeline Docherty, author of Gender Theory ‘With fluid prose reminiscent of both Jessica Andrews' watercolour-esque writing and Coco Mellors' sculpted syntax’ Jessie Elland, author of The Ladie Upstairs ‘Raw, heart-breakingly precise and utterly luminous' Ella McLeod, author of Rapunzella, Or, Don't Touch My Hair 'I was more emotionally invested in the characters that I have been in a long' Molly Aitken ‘A groundbreaking debut and one that readers will love to share between friends' NB Magazine ‘Equal parts tender and unflinching’ BUZZ Magazine * * * * Readers adore OVERSPILL… 'This book is not just an incredible read it's essential'?

The actors have been cast, the script written, and filming has already started in Hastings. But when Hawthorne and Anthony visit the set, they find a far from happy family. The director’s pretentious, the screenwriter’s an eco-warrior, the two stars hate each other, and the producer has run out of money. And things are about to get much, much worse. In the middle of shooting, the actor playing Hawthorne is stabbed – which leaves the real Hawthorne with no choice. He has to step in and investigate his own murder. Because the killer may not have got the right man. Was it Hawthorne himself who was meant to be the targe? Deadly Episode is a wild ride through a world that the author knows only too well, and the most personal case Hawthorne has had to deal with so far. -----------Praise for A Deadly Episode . . . ‘Clever and playful, this is meta-mystery at its best.’ iPaper'Another winner' Financial Times'Perfect for Agatha Christie fans' Hello!'The perfect whodunnit' 5-star reader review'A brilliant writer' Sunday Independent'A very entertaining instalment to this fabulous series' 5-star reader review'A pacy and entertaining mystery that I loved from start to finish' 5-star reader review'A roller coaster of red herrings' 5-star reader review'Full of humour, twists and red herrings' 5-star reader review'Exceedingly brilliant' 5-star reader review‘Delightful’ Wall Street Journal
The Swish of the Curtain: Book 1
'I wanted to act before I read this book, and afterwards there was no stopping me' Maggie Smith'An enchanting book. A must for any child who wants to become an actor' Eileen AtkinsIn the quiet town of Fenchester, seven children dream of the stage. There is Lyn the actress, Vicky the dancer, Jeremy the musician, Nigel the artist, Sandra the designer, Bulldog the comic and of course Maddy - who is too young to know her role just yet, but busts with enthusiasm.When they discover an abandoned chapel, a glorious plan is hatched. Together they will transform the dingy space into a theatre of their very own - writing, directing and performing plays to amaze the whole town. But with parents insisting on sensible futures and the end of their schooldays looming, can the show go on?Part of the new Pushkin Children's Classics series of thrilling, magical and inspiring stories from around the world, which young readers will return to time and again.Pamela Brown (1924-1989) was a British writer, actor and television producer. She was just fourteen when she started writing her first book, and the town of Fenchester in the book is inspired by her home town of Colchester. During the Second World War, she went to line in Wales, so The Swish of the Curtain was no published until 1941, when she was sixteen. She used the earnings from the books to train at RADA, and became an actor and a producer of children's television programmes.
Footprints
The most important Swiss poet of the nineteenth century, Conrad Ferdinand Meyer is regarded as a crucial figure in the transition of German-language poetry from the Romanticism of Heine, Novalis and Eichendorff to the Symbolism of Rilke and Stefan George.In poems that took years and sometimes decades to reach a final version, he worked within a limited set of themes and images – high mountains, gloomy lakes, sinister boats, nocturnal ghosts, reflected clouds, dark woods, golden sunsets, lightning, harvesting, lost lovers – to present his own symbolic world with a vividness and intensity that few poets can match. In these sensitive and accurate versions by acclaimed translator Anthony Mortimer, Meyer’s achievement is available to anglophone readers for the first time.

Natalie Davis's brave and candid memoir chronicles the transformation of her traditional monogamous marriage into a vibrant polyamorous lifestyle. When her husband suggests they have sex with strangers, Natalie is incredulous. Yet, in the aftermath of his infidelity and while battling the voice in her head urging her to leave him, she agrees to try non-monogamy. What follows surprises no one more than Natalie—a soccer mom and lawyer—as she embarks on a daring journey down the rabbit hole of polyamory. Fearing for her livelihood and community standing, Natalie must keep her new lifestyle secret. She navigates complex relationships, including increasing clashes with her boyfriend's wife (her "metamour"), confronting a therapist who claims polyamory is abusive, and debating what to tell her family and friends. Along the way, she discovers her own bold sexuality, experiences the thrill of young lovers, finds empathy from her husband's experienced poly girlfriend, and learns to weather heartbreak and find bliss.Saying Yes offers an unvarnished look into Natalie's world, as she explores excitement, intimacy, and connection in unexpected places, including a few stairwells.
