The New Carthaginians
SHORTLISTED FOR THE TS ELIOT PRIZE 2025SHORTLISTED FOR THE JHALAK PRIZE 2026'© Codex' SHORTLISTED FOR THE FORWARD PRIZE FOR BEST SINGLE POEMLONGLISTED FOR THE GRIFFIN POETRY PRIZE 2026'Profound, sheer originality... a tantalising jigsaw puzzle of a book' Tristram Fane-Saunders, TelegraphIn The New Carthaginians, time – and with it the world – is out of joint. A hijacked plane lands at Entebbe International Airport in 1976, triggering the crisis that will lead to Idi Amin’s Uganda becoming a pariah state and, within a few years, to the young Nick Makoha’s flight from the country. A mysterious writer daubs poetic slogans on the walls of late-’70s New York City, signing them SAMO©. Three characters who are also one – the Poet, a Black Icarus and a resurrected Jean-Michel Basquiat – journey through a time that is both our own and not, watching TV, discussing art and literature and tucking their wings into their jackets on the way to airport security. Concerned throughout with flight and falling, the sample and the loop, The New Carthaginians is a poetry collection of staggering originality: a work by an author at the height of his powers, in which the familiar Western canons of art, history and philosophy are prised apart and reassembled in a new configuration. Drawing on Basquiat’s technique of the ‘exploded’ collage, our heroes’ odyssey gathers the symbols of a new mythos, through which the othering of Black life might be undone and the stage set for some fresh emergence, some transfigured understanding of myth and life. ‘Hold that note,’ writes the poet. ‘In this place you are no longer the chorus … In any future, remember you are a New Carthaginian.’A FINANCIAL TIMES BEST SUMMER BOOK OF POETRY 2025‘In this book, Nick Makoha has found an otherworldly, visionary voice and diction that arrest you from the first page and never let you go.’ Jason Allen-Paisant, Winner of the TS Eliot Prize
Why We Suffer and How We Heal
A groundbreaking guide to facing adversity by a world-leading psychiatrist and trauma expert. When we’re enjoying spring and summer, we don’t imagine that they’ll last forever. The same should be true for our own lives. Some survivors are unflappable, yet it’s not their optimism or grit that carries them forward, but their acceptance of life’s inherent instability. In her debut book, Harvard- and Stanford-trained child and adult psychiatrist Dr Suzan Song draws from her clinical practice, patient stories and research to help readers release their unrealistic longing for stability, using the three tools that allow us to weather life's stormiest seasons: narrative, ritual and purpose. Dr Song draws on the visual motifs of the ‘three friends of winter’ in Korean art – pine, bamboo and plum blossoms – plants that thrive even in the harshest of winters. For all humankind the universal ‘three friends of winter,’ are narrative, rituals and purpose. Why We Suffer and How We Heal will open us up to a new, heathier mindset and teach us to transform life's challenges into opportunities for growth and resilience.

Dragster Genesis
This is the story of drag racing's formative years, told through the feats of the people and cars involved. The simple format on a dragstrip was, and remains, two cars lining up in separate lanes to race over a straight course stretching a quarter of a mile, with the first to the other end declared the winner. The first drag racers, in 1949, were hot rodders in California whose early exploits led relentlessly to the development of the loudest and most powerful cars on earth, competing all over America and beyond. Little could those youthful tearaways have imagined that eventually cars with power outputs of 11,000 horsepower from V8 automobile engines would accelerate to over 300mph in under four seconds. Packed with authoritative information and high-quality illustration, this wonderful book explores the sport's evolution with insight and character, guaranteeing to captivate all motorsport fans. * All the star performers of drag racing - Don Garlits, Don Prudhomme, Shirley Muldowney and Chris Karamesines - feature in the book, along with unsung heroes. * From the innovative and influential to the offbeat and sometimes bizarre, dragsters in their bewildering variety are fully described and depicted in beautiful profile drawings. * Flamboyant drivers with legendary nicknames: Dale 'The Snail' Emery, Don 'Big Daddy' Garlits, Chris 'The Greek' Karamesines, 'Jungle Jim' Liberman, Tom 'The Mongoose' McEwen, 'Slam'n Sammy' Miller, Don 'The Snake' Prudhomme, 'Sneaky Pete' Robinson and many more. * Charismatic cars with renowned titles: 'Swamp Rat', 'The Blue Max', 'Freight Train', 'The World's Wildest Willys', 'Pure Hell', 'The Chizler' and 'The High & Mighty', to name just a few. * Women drivers are included in the roll of honour: the best competed on equal terms with men and convincingly won at the highest level, with Brittany Force currently holding the world record for top speed and elapsed time in Top Fuel.

The Library of Ancient Wisdom
When a team of Victorian archaeologists dug into a grassy hill in Iraq, they chanced upon one of the oldest and greatest stores of knowledge ever seen: the library of the Assyrian king Ashurbanipal, seventh century BCE ruler of a huge swathe of the ancient Middle East known as Mesopotamia. After his death, vengeful rivals burned Ashurbanipal's library to the ground - yet the texts, carved on clay tablets, were baked and preserved by the heat. Buried for millennia, the tablets were written in cuneiform: the first written language in the world.
More than half of human history is written in cuneiform, but only a few hundred people on earth can read it. In this captivating new book, Assyriologist Selena Wisnom takes us on an immersive tour of this extraordinary library, bringing ancient Mesopotamia and its people to life. Through it, we encounter a world of astonishing richness, complexity and sophistication. Mesopotamia, she shows, was home to advanced mathematics, astronomy and banking, law and literature. This was a culture absorbed and developed by the ancient Greeks, and whose myths were precursors to Bible stories - in short, a culture without which our lives today would be unrecognizable.
The Library of Ancient Wisdom unearths a civilization at once strange and strangely familiar: a land of capricious gods, exorcisms and professional lamenters, whose citizens wrote of jealous rivalries, profound friendships and petty grievances. Through these pages we come face to face with humanity's first civilization: their startling achievements, their daily life, and their struggle to understand our place in the universe.
