Renoir - An Intimate Biography
'A magnificent success ... it will remain a point of reference for years to come' Sophie Renoir
The joy that permeates Renoir's paintings emerged from the heart of a deeply complex man. Even his close friends and family members were baffled by the contradictions that defined him. In Renoir: An Intimate Biography, Barbara Ehrlich White, the world's leading authority on the artist's life and work, brings a lifetime of research to bear - challenging misconceptions around Renoir's reputation to provide an unparalleled account of this great Impressionist artist, in both his own words and those of his friends.
Uniquely intimate, this biography is interspersed with over one thousand excerpts of letters by, to, and about Renoir - 452 of which come from previously unpublished letters. These firsthand accounts offer an extraordinary window into Renoir's world, bringing us into direct contact with Renoir not only as a groundbreaking artist but as a devoted friend and father, too.

But Maddie can’t get away with it forever. Years later, in the interview room of her prison, she comes face-to-face with a very important visitor.

And together, they might just break the world . . .
the witch doesn't drown in this one
In this one, the witch doesn’t burn or die or drown. In this one, she rages.In the witch doesn’t drown in this one, celebrated poetess amanda lovelace revisits the titular voice behind her 2018 bestselling collection the witch doesn’t burn in this one. With candor, honesty, and well-earned wisdom, lovelace expounds on the roller coaster of feelings brought on by simply trying to exist as a woman in the sociopolitical climate of 2025’s America. Through poetry that encompasses a myriad of fem-centric themes, including queer love, trans rights, patriarchal oppression, and intersectional feminism, she demands that women of all backgrounds and lived experiences be seen, heard, defended, and loved. the witch doesn’t drown in this one is a deeply felt and hard-won reminder that though some stories that start with bitch-fire end with tear stains, women are powerful, resilient beings who have always contained the strength to rise again, especially when we swim back to the surface together.
The Stolen Heart
Samson Kolechko has been assigned a most perplexing case - though it is mostly perplexing because it's hard to understand why selling the meat of one's own pig constitutes a crime. But apparently it does, and at the insistence of the Chekist secret police officer assigned to "reinforce" the Lybid police station, Samson does his diligent - if diffident - best. Yet no sooner has he got started than his live-in fiancée Nadezhda is abducted by striking railway workers who object to the census she's carrying out. And when you factor in a mysterious thief in the police station itself, a deadly tram accident that may have been pre-meditated, and the potential reappearance of the culprit in the case of the silver bone, it's no wonder the "meat case" takes a back seat. But it is in the pursuit of that petty-fogging, seemingly mundane matter that Samson's fate lies - and Nadezhda's too, for the two are inextricably entwined. Translated from the Russian by Boris DraylukReviews for The Silver Bone - Longlisted for the International Booker Prize"Andrey Kurkov is often called Ukraine's greatest living writer, and it is a gift for crime fiction fans that he writes in this genre" New York Times"Wildly enjoyable . . . A glorious aural portrait of a city in dangerous flux . . . I finished The Silver Bone wishing to read more" Guardian
The Edinburgh Murders
🔎 'A delight! A plot at once playful and disturbing, and a wonderfully satisfying surprise ending. McPherson is a terrific storyteller' ANN CLEEVES 🔎Edinburgh, 1948. Welfare Officer Helen Crowther has enough on her plate between her hectic job, her complicated love life, and her growing reputation as a troublemaker. Last year's scandal did nothing to help with the disapproval she already gets as a woman in her line of work. All she wants now is to focus on doing what she loves: helping the poor of the Fountainbridge ward in the city of Edinburgh. The last thing she needs is another string of murders to distract her . . . But when a gentleman dressed in working-man's clothing winds up dead right under Helen's nose, and she catches her own father in a very risky lie, Helen is propelled back into the dark world where class rules, justice is hard to come by and gruesome death is everywhere. Helen has already learned some hard truths about her city, but this investigation is about to reveal just how deep corruption can go . . . 'An intricately plotted mystery with wonderfully original (nasty, but not gory) murders. The rich period detail and use of local dialect immediately whisk you away to post-war Edinburgh. Hugely enjoyable!' FIONA LEITCH
