Still Talking


Following her acclaimed Ladies'' Lunch novella (2023), Lore Segal continued to create stories about a fictional group of nonagenarian friends as they faced the last years, months and moments of their lives. For Lore Segal, the importance lay in ''still talking'', and still writing to the very end. Fittingly, her last story was published in the New Yorker in the week that she died, aged ninety-six.This posthumous novella of interconnected stories and vignettes is enriched by Segal''s inspiring wit and wisdom, her compassionate gaze, and her unquenchable curiosity about life. It''s a book that entreats us to keep talking, regardless of differences and the trials of ageing - a book that we''ll still be talking about many years hence.

The Young Person's Guide to Health and Wellness


A practical guide setting young people on a path to greater wellbeing The Young Person’s Guide to Health and Wellness grew out of Dr. Friedberg’s hands-on role in creating a holistic health, wellness, and athletic program at the Portledge School in Locust Valley, N.Y.  Under his continued guidance, the program helps students pursue the best version of themselves in every dimension of their lives. It enables them to develop strong habits that will anchor them as they grow towards maturity. The program is based on ten principles, beliefs: You live in your body, so take care of it.  Good nutrition is essential for health Healthy habits strengthen you. Self-reflection helps you find your way. Core moral values improve your sense of self. Healthy relationships are integral to your well-being. Empathy is essential to caring about each other. Building community helps you grow personally. Nurturing a sound mind is important to physical health. Making the most of good choices leads to a fulfilling life. The Young Person’s Guide to Health and Wellness elaborates on these tenets, demonstrating how young people can apply them in their own lives. “What is ‘good’ nutrition for someone with my body type and energy expenditure?” “How do I build community in my neighborhood?” The Guide is designed so that young people can approach the tenets through reading and reflection, augmented by discussion in classrooms or team meetings. Each chapter, explaining a particular tenet, will include questions for reflection and discussion. Ultimately, the Guide encourages young people not to leave health and wellness to luck or chance, but to take responsibility for their psychological and physical wellbeing. By developing an awareness of health and wellness, and making it the basis of sound habits, young people can better prepare for whatever comes next.

Continuing his elegiac Lewis novels, Donald S. Murray serves up a remarkable new work that sweeps across time from the eighth century to the present day.

This is a novel that mirrors the shifting rhythms of wind and tide. The struggles and joys of past lives are refracted in the heartaches and hopes of modern-day islanders. As in his award-winning previous novels, the ordinary is suffused with quiet wonder; every place and gesture carries memories and meaning. Ultimately, this is a novel about continuity. The land holds its secrets, letting the past break surface in sometimes surprising ways. Murray s compassionate gaze reminds us that time can be viewed as a circle, where the living are in constant conversation with those who came before.

Boudicca


From P. C. Cast, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the landmark House of Night urban fantasy series, comes an epic, lusty, magic-filled romantasy about British warrior queen Boudicca. Perfect for fans of Sue Lynn Tan and Madeline Miller!In Roman-occupied Britain, the Iceni tribe crowns an extraordinary new queen. Tall and flame-haired, Boudicca is devoted to Andraste, the Iceni’s patron goddess, known for her raven familiar, her fierceness and her swirling blue tattoos. Boudicca and her two young daughters will carry the tribe forward in dangerous times. Roman tax collector Catus Decianus, expecting weakness in a female ruler, launches a devastating attack on the tribe’s stronghold. Boudicca and her family barely survive—but they refuse to bend the knee. She calls a war council, bringing together her most trustworthy allies, including her childhood friend Rhan, now a powerful Druid seer, and the horse master Maldwyn, whose devotion to Boudicca runs deeper than a warrior to a queen. Surprising the Romans, Boudicca’s armies sack the wealthy cities of Camulodunum, Londinium and Veralamium. As the snow falls, the Celts retreat to a hidden valley to plot their assault on the remaining Roman legions, determined to force the invaders from Britan. But in the jagged ice of winter the Druid Rhan foresees a tragic end to Boudicca’s rebellion. Although the defeat of the Iceni is spelled out in signs sent by the gods, Rhan swears she will alter the future and save her queen. Now the battle-hardened Boudicca must put her trust in the powers of the otherworld to save her from both the traitors in her midst and from Rome’s mighty legions. Inspired by the rich history of Boudicca’s attack on Roman Britain, bestselling author P. C. Cast crafts an epic, mythic retelling of one of time’s most legendary female warriors.
