There Is No Meant to Be
There is no meant to be but the love I’ve known has made it hard to believe thatAn inventive, funny and deeply moving family epic: a love story, an elegy and a reminder that even in the mess of family and memory there is something to laugh aboutAN OBSERVER NON-FICTION BOOK TO LOOK OUT FOR IN 2026'A wild ride' JON McGREGOR'Raw and intimate, so daring and disobedient’ SARAH HALL'The most beautiful and truthful song to the pain present in a good life' EVIE WYLDJarred McGinnis was born to a Southern US clan where masculinity, resilience and physical violence were intertwined. In There Is No Meant to Be he unearths the legends, secrets and scars that have shaped his family line from his outlaw Irish ancestors to his mother Momo’s gift of foresight, and the ghosts – both real and remembered – that follow him into adulthood. Two decades on from the near-fatal accident that left him in a wheelchair, McGinnis is married and the father of two girls, living first in East London and now Marseille. He writes about love within the context of care and of the particular vulnerability that comes from being a parent with a disability. In a daring imaginative leap, he writes of the end of life too, reaching beyond his own death to look at what truly makes a life. 'Caustic, hilarious, unflinchingly honest and so captivatingly humane, I couldn't put this book down' JAN CARSON'In a world teetering on madness, here is an ode to truth, courage, and the beautiful power of vulnerability' ELAINE FEENEY'A multi-layered, many-textured masterpiece' CHARLIE GILMOUR
Chasing Freedom
In my home country, they call me a ''bornfree''.Simukai Chigudu was born in Zimbabwe, two years after the end of its bitter war of liberation - a war in which his father had fought. This is the story of his childhood journey through the chaos of that new country''s birth to Britain, where he arrived alone, a teenager, burning with ambition but utterly lost in ways he had yet even to discover.Told with astonishing insight, his memoir describes the drama of his quest to belong and to succeed, and how his worldview was both shaped and shattered by Britain, ultimately setting him on a quest to uncover the truth of his parents'' past.In excavating their story alongside his own, he brings us closer than ever before to understanding one of the greatest upheavals in modern times - the freeing of a continent from colonial rule - not as history or politics but as a psychological and emotional force, one that divides families from within, even while those same divisions bind them fiercely together across time.
A Philosopher Looks at the Weather
From barometers to the famous BBC shipping forecast, we have – over the centuries – developed the means to predict, harness, and shield ourselves from what is happening in the atmosphere. Attitudes about the planet's weather, as well as about human identity, have thereby taken on new meanings. In an era of climatic anxiety, what weather is and how weather behaves have taken on additional currency. Benjamin Hale weaves together philosophy and anecdote into a many-faceted exploration of this powerful force that shapes who we are and how we think about our place in the world. He argues that in our drive to 'scientize' weather, with all the technological advances in managing, anticipating, and understanding it, we also risk distancing ourselves from weather and losing a complete sense of what it is. This entertaining book reminds us that the weather is and always will be in some sense outside our control, and that consequently we are and forever will be learning to live alongside it.

Syn medvědího otce
Aby se vyhnul nebezpečí, je muž v lese nucen zabít medvědici. Jejího mláděte je mu však líto, a tak jej vezme domů ke své ženě. Tento akt milosrdenství a lítosti rychle zasáhne do osudu páru, jehož láska je podrobena zkoušce narozením neobvyklého dítěte... Syn medvědího otce, němý grafický román francouzského autora Nicolase Presla, vypráví dojemný příběh o soužití lidí a zvířat. Mimořádně sugestivní a poetický, ale místy také hořký příběh o životě potomka, který není ani člověkem, ani zvířetem, se mění ve fantastickou alegorii, která beze slov hovoří o univerzálních tématech lásky a zklamání, odpuštění a nespravedlnosti, sounáležitosti a odcizení. S přesvědčivým a dovedným vizuálním stylem, který čerpá z umělecké tradice mezi dvěma světovými válkami, autor utkal emocionálně nabité a dramaticky poutavé vyprávění o věčném hledání smyslu a identity.
