My Life in Music
A passionate and illuminating memoir by the celebrated Chief Conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra. 'Mesmerising.' DANIEL BARENBOIM Sir Antonio Pappano is one of the best known and most celebrated conductors alive today. His deeply held belief in the power of music to inspire and enlighten is the motivation behind this long anticipated memoir. In 1969, decades before he was chosen to conduct the music at the Coronation of King Charles, Sir Antonio Pappano was a ten-year-old boy accompanying his father's singing lessons. My Life in Music tells the moving tale of a legendary conductor who, nurtured in childhood by his parents and their dedicated work ethic, goes on to conduct at many of the most influential opera houses of Europe and North America. Pappano skilfully evokes an extensive selection from his wide-ranging repertoire - operas and orchestral works spanning from Mozart to Birtwistle and Mark Anthony Turnage, as well as art song and chamber music works in which he has performed as a pianist - and makes a compelling case for the potential classical music has to captivate new and wider audiences.

Every dark corridor brings intrigue, scandal, and white-hot temptation. Can Lily rewrite history, survive Henry’s court, and keep her head?

THE VOICE IN MY HEAD IS GOD
In his most personal work yet, Grammy Award–winning rapper 2 Chainz shares the spiritual journey behind his success, offering a raw, reflective, and deeply motivational meditation on the inner voice that’s guided him his whole life: God. Before he was 2 Chainz, he was Tauheed Epps—an only child growing up in College Park, Georgia, raised by a single mother while his father served time in prison. Though he excelled in school and earned a basketball scholarship, the streets were never far behind, and by fifteen, he had been arrested and was hustling to survive. He faced doubt and self-destruction, but even then, something told him there had to be more. In THE VOICE IN MY HEAD IS GOD, 2 Chainz tells the story of how he walked away from the trap and found his purpose: not by fame or fear, but by faith. With his unmistakable voice and unflinching honesty, he reflects on the hardest moments of his life and the quiet revelations that shaped him. From the spiritual alarms he couldn’t ignore to the mentors who showed up at the right time, he explores how his music and verses poured out when he finally listened to the voice that had been there all along. From hanging with Lil Wayne to getting early help from Ludacris, 2 Chainz brings us into the defining moments of his life and career while delivering a powerful message about discipline, divine timing, and self-belief. Along the way, he offers more than a memoir. He shares a way of thinking, of trusting yourself, and of listening to the voice that never steers you wrong. Lyrical, grounded, and fiercely motivational THE VOICE IN MY HEAD IS GOD is part blueprint and all heart.

Arbiters of Style
From the discerning editors of FREDERIC and the creative minds at Schumacher, a beautifully photographed and written exploration of an exciting new movement in French interior design and architecture, featuring visionary talentsSomething extraordinary is happening in French interior design. Like the cinematic sea change that gave us the New Wave, the next generation of designers and architects is breaking with the past to forge something entirely fresh - a movement that feels as significant as it is seductive, as trailblazing as it is sensually refined. From rising stars like Hugo Toro and Marine Bonnefoy to established names like Jacques Grange and Jean-Louis Deniot, the twenty-one French designers in Arbiters of Style are leading a bold new charge in the decorative arts: fluent in architecture, but fluent in feeling, too; refreshingly unafraid of color; obsessed with sculptural form; and confident enough to let a single perfect gesture speak volumes. They are proving that the most profound luxury isn’t about having more - it's about knowing exactly what to leave out. Lushly illustrated with nearly 200 color photographs, this stunning survey showcases inspiring interiors in private residences across France, from Paris and Ormesson-sur-Marne to far-flung holiday locales such as Cap Ferret, the Pyrenees, Biarritz, Île de Ré, and Saint-Tropez. This is more than a snapshot of French style - it is elegance and sophistication reimagined by interior designers and architects who think like artists and artists who understand structure, it is a cadre of talent rewriting the rules. In an era when design feels caught between maximalist excess and beige-washed banality, these spaces represent an aesthetic reawakening, a burst of creativity that seems light-years ahead of everything else, reminding us that true style isn’t about following rules - it’s about having the vision to shatter them beautifully.
The Poisoner
A gripping account of the murders committed by Dr William Palmer, the 'Prince of Poisoners', and his dramatic trial in 1855. In 1856, a baying crowd of over 30,000 people gathered outside Stafford prison to watch the execution of a village doctor from Staffordshire. One of the last people to be publicly hanged, 'the greatest villain who ever stood trial at the Old Bailey,' as Charles Dickens described him, Dr William Palmer was convicted in 1855 of murdering his best friend, but was suspected of poisoning more than a dozen other people, including his wife, children, brother and mother-in-law - cashing in on their life insurance to fund his crippling gambling habit. Highlighting Palmer's particularly gruesome penchant for strychnine, his trial made news across Europe; he was a new kind of murderer - respectable, middle class, personable, and consequently more terrifying - and he became Britain's most infamous figure until the emergence of Jack the Ripper. The first widely available account of one of the most notorious, yet lesser-known, mass-murderers in British history, The Poisoner takes a fresh look at Palmer's life and disputed crimes, ultimately asking 'just how evil was this man?' With previously undiscovered letters from Palmer and new forensic examination of his victims, Stephen Bates presents not only an astonishing and controversial revision of Palmer's entire story, but takes us into the very psyche of a killer.
