Chiquitita
I’M FRIGHTENED OF MY DREAMS, OF EVERYTHING I DON’T KNOW, BUT ALSO OF EVERYTHING I KNOW. Marisol’s country is collapsing. A military coup sends the five-year-old and her family fleeing into the night. They seek shelter in a refugee camp where her parents try to protect her from danger while they await asylum. Marisol spends her adult life trying to cope with the memories from her childhood, the aunts and uncles she left behind, the friends whose names she no longer recalls. But when her boyfriend wants to learn more about her past, she finds herself confronting the trauma that haunts her. Chiquitita is a tender novel about flight and exile, the passing of time, and the experiences that remain with us, refusing erasure.
The Ultimates
Explore the Stories Behind the LegendsThe 1990s and early 2000s were a time of intense change and experimentation for Marvel Comics. Out of this emerged The Ultimates—a comic that would have an explosive impact on Marvel and the broader pop culture landscape. Writer Mark Millar, with artists Bryan Hitch, Andrew Currie, and Paul Neary, reimagined the classic characters that made up Marvel’s premiere super hero team, the Avengers. Looking at them through a modern, post-9/11 lens, the creators treated the characters as super soldiers who reported to the US government. Illustrated with full-color art, Ted Adam’s entry in The Marvel Age of Comics takes readers through Marvel of the ‘90s: the Marvel Knights imprint, the creation of the Ultimate universe with Spider-Man and the X-Men, and finally the Ultimates themselves. With its unique blend of grounded realism and over-the-top action, The Ultimates ensured that comic books and pop culture would never be the same.

Mayfly Season
What if the child you mourned had never die? harrowing family story about forced adoption, a sinister chapter in East German history, and father-son relationships expressed through a shared love of nature and fishing. 1978, near Leipzig, East Germany. For Katrin and Hans, every parent’s worst nightmare comes true when they are told that their newborn baby Daniel has died. Amidst the shock and horror of the news, Katrin doubts what the doctors have told her, feeling that they are lying and that Daniel is still alive: doubts which Hans refuses to acknowledge, and which lead to the end of their marriage. After the collapse of the GDR, happy in a new relationship, Hans receives an unexpected phone call which prompts him to investigate the past. His research, which takes him deep into recent history, is met with resistance and silence at every turn, until at last a fishing expedition enables the family to start healing from their trauma. Mayfly Season is an extraordinary portrait of totalitarian state cruelty, the promise of a new beginning and the infinite healing capacity shared by humanity and nature.

Noisy Valley
“It’s about what ordinary people do, because what we do... is quite extraordinary.”Protest matters, and never more so than today – and yet our rights around dissent have been eroded in law. Noisy Valley is a beautifully illustrated work of graphic non-fiction exploring the importance of protest, and what it can achieve, through the voices of one vibrant community. In every neighbourhood there are the activists, the ones who raise their voices. Myfanwy Tristram visited the Rhondda Valley in South Wales, inviting local people to recount their memories of the times they’d refused to take things lying down. Noisy Valley is the result: a graphic retelling of protests both past and present. The area is best known for the miners’ strikes of the 1980s (and their support from the LGBT movement as documented in the film Pride), but its spirit of righteous dissent continues to rise against injustice. These stories tell how communities and individuals pushed back on a landfill site that poisoned local streams, a waste processing plant that destroyed an area of natural beauty, sexism in the workplace, and the closure of the local hospital. We dip into the historic Aldermaston marches and the Greenham women’s peace camp too. Noisy Valley is a testament to protestors who – whatever the political climate – have believed in their power to get things changed.
Thursdays in Nairobi
'Nairobi enchants, like the eyes of a loved one, like their smile, like their kisses, like their caresses, like their very thought.' Thursdays in Nairobi is a personal account of an expat's life in Nairobi, related through a unique collection of vignettes about Kenya´s capital city.

Become a fly on the wall during Gómez Pickering's intimate interview with Sarah Onyango Obama, the third wife of Barack Obama's grandfather - and the woman that the former US President calls 'Granny Sarah'. Enjoy safaris within spitting distance of skyscrapers or brave a first-hand account of interethnic violence in East Africa. For something different, venture with the author into Kibera, the continent's largest urban slum, or head out after dark to experience Nairobi's offbeat nightlife (and, vicariously, the sex life of its inhabitants). This unprecedented collection of real-life stories celebrate the beauty, diversity, intrigue and visceral reality of one of Africa's most famous cities. Compelling, authentic and wide-ranging, Thursdays in Nairobi is a portrait of a capital where life is saturated with vitality, where emotions run high, where life is deeply felt. 'In Nairobi, one misses more, loves more, suffers more, laughs more. In Nairobi, questions that have never been asked are answered. In Nairobi, opposites meet; in Nairobi, halves unite.'

'The first division of crime writers' - Daily Mail----------Discover Italy's bewitching region of Puglia with the seventh Daniel Leicester mystery, the most propulsive yet . . . English detective and Bologna resident Daniel Leicester has been summoned by a dying relative to the wildest corner of Puglia, home to revered saints, fearsome mafia clans, hidden catacombs and sinister ceremonies.

He is enchanted by the mysteries of the region and joins a search for stolen antiquities, but when a contact is gruesomely murdered by mobsters, it's clear that mafia rule is more powerful than local mysticism. Lured by magic but trapped by the mob, Daniel finds himself unable to return to his beloved Bologna.

And when Daniel's daughter is snatched during a Holy Week procession, he sees first-hand just how far they're prepared to go . . . ----------Readers love Tom Benjamin's Daniel Leicester mysteries!'A galloping and topical read' - The Florentine'Evocative, easy to read, and immersive...
