Beautiful Distance


An unnamed narrator sits in a cafe overlooking a train station, sipping a green juice and people-watching. A small white butterfly flutters through the air; a calico cat jumps onto a wall; cherry blossom petals fall, softly, to the ground. Life stands still for one moment. He is preparing to visit his terminally ill wife in hospital. So begins this moving novel exploring the distance between people, places and memories in simple and elegant prose, as Yamazaki raises questions around what family means, how we think about death, and how we express love; particularly in a society where work is often prioritised.

Elizabeth II


As daughter, wife, mother and Sovereign, Elizabeth II lived fascinating parallel lives, both in private and in public. But she remained something of a mystery – beloved, even revered, modest yet daunting, naturally shy but globally recognizable, inscrutable and also authentic. She was grand but so familiar that we felt we knew her. Yet we would always be left asking the same question: ‘What’s she really like?’ No one has written more authoritatively on Elizabeth II than Robert Hardman. Who better to answer that question? The only biographer to have interviewed all the senior members of the Royal Family, some of them several times, Hardman has crafted a gripping story of drama, devotion, triumph, tragedy, humour and conflict; of an outwardly stoical, inwardly complex woman whose love of family, love of country and duty to the Crown might pull her in different directions but never derailed her; a global stateswoman who wielded her great authority with charm and understatement. Elizabeth II will explain why she was not merely the most famous woman in the world. She was one of history’s all-time greats.

The Once and Future World Order


The epic history of world order, revealing how the decline of the West may be a good thing for its future. Since the dawn of the twenty-first century, the West has been in crisis. Social unrest, political polarization, and the rise of other great powers - especially China - threaten to unravel today's Western-led world order. Many fear this would lead to global chaos. But this is a Western illusion. Surveying five thousand years of global history, political scientist Amitav Acharya reveals that world order existed long before the rise of the West. Moving from ancient Sumer, India, Greece, and Mesoamerica, through medieval caliphates and Eurasian empires into the present, Acharya shows that humanitarian values, economic interdependence, and rules of inter-state conduct emerged across the globe over millennia. History suggests order will endure even as the West retreats. Instead of fearing the future, the West should learn from history and cooperate with the Rest to forge a more equitable order.

Distilling her research and experience as a shaman and spiritual teacher, Lisa Biritz provides a practical guide to shamanic soul retrieval for our time.

Trauma, abuse, and negative life events can cause parts of the soul to split off, and this lowers one’s self-esteem, energy, and light. The author explains how soul fragmentation also leads to a loss of life force and a diminished sense of self and this can give way to emotional, mental, and physical ailments. With a practical and accessible approach based on years of experience in shamanic healing, Biritz shares shamanic soul retrieval methods and techniques to help readers recover lost soul parts, heal, and return to wholeness. She emphasizes that this process does not require complicated rituals or trance states. Instead, she offers simple methods such as visualization exercises and guided meditations that are rooted in Indigenous traditions. Shamanism is an ancient and natural way to connect with the divine and the invisible world and anyone can learn to access this healing energy with the right techniques. Shamanic Soul Retrieval is a practical how-to guide that provides clear steps to help individuals restore their soul, regain balance, and experience a renewed sense of vitality and joy.

Naming Nature


From butterflies and hummingbirds to narwhal and leopards, Naming Nature celebrates our wondrous natural world by exploring the language we use to describe it. Take elephants, for instance. African languages often focus on the power of the animal; Tswana and Tsonga refer to ‘the unstoppable one’ and Zulu ‘one crashing through’. In ancient European languages however, elephants were seen as commodities. When Homer and Hesiod wrote about elephas in the seventh century BCE, they simply used the word for ivory. Bestselling author T.A. Barron brings together his love of the natural world and his joy in language, creating an inspiring – and often surprising – collection.
