FEATURING AN INTRODUCTION BY NICK CAVE‘Warren has turned this memento, snatched from his idol’s piano in a moment of rapture, into a genuine religious artefact.’NICK CAVE''Such a mad, happy book about art and music and obsession. I’m so glad I got to read it. It made the world feel lighter.''NEIL GAIMAN''In praise of meaning-rich relics and magical things. Totally heartwarming project.''MAX PORTER''A unique study of a fan’s devotion, of transcendence and of the artistic vocation — it’s got depth and great warmth. It’s a beautiful piece of work.''KEVIN BARRYI hadn’t opened the towel that contained her gum since 2013. The last person to touch it was Nina Simone, her saliva and fingerprints unsullied. The idea that it was still in her towel was something I had drawn strength from. I thought each time I opened it some of Nina Simone’s spirit would vanish. In many ways that thought was more important than the gum itself.On Thursday 1 July, 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave''s Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage, took Dr Simone''s piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, a conduit that would eventually take Ellis back to his childhood and his relationship with found objects, growing in significance with every passing year.Nina Simone’s Gum is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love. ''This is such a beautiful f*@king book. Thank you, Warren. I highly recommend this motherf*@ker.''FLEA''A beautifully written book about the power of music and objects. I powered through it in two days.''COURTNEY BARNETT''A moving, inspiration insight into a beautiful mind.''JIM JARMUSCH''The year''s most eccentric and joyful musical memoir.''DAILY TELEGRAPH (Books of the year)''[Nina Simone''s Gum] is a metaphor for [Ellis''] creativity — the blossoming of a small idea into something bigger and bolder — but also a journey inside the impulsive, improvisatory mind of Warren Ellis, his passions, obsessions and superstitions.''

Jack and Eve - Wendy Moore
Vera Holme, known as Jack, left a career as a jobbing actress to become Emmeline Pankhurst''s chauffeur and mechanic. Evelina Haverfield was a classic beauty, the daughter of a baron and fourteen years older than Jack. They met in 1908, fell in love, lived together, and became public faces of the suffragette movement, enduring prison and doing everything they could for the cause.The First World War paused the suffragettes'' campaign and Jack and Eve enrolled in the Scottish Women''s Hospital Service and soon found themselves in Serbia. Eve set up and ran hospitals for allied soldiers in appalling conditions, while Jack became an ambulance driver, travelling along dirt tracks under bombardment to collect the wounded from the front lines.Together, they carved radical new paths, demonstrating that women could do anything men could do, whether driving ambulances, running military hospitals, becoming prisoners of war or bearing arms. They refused to compromise in their sexuality - they were lifelong partners even though Jack enjoyed relationships with other women. Determined to be themselves, ''forthright, flamboyant and proud'', Wendy Moore uses their story as a lens through which to view the suffragette movement, the work of women in WWI and the development of lesbian identity throughout the twentieth century.

Stony Jack and the Lost Jewels of Cheapside - Victoria Shepherd
A thrilling history of mudlarkers, charlatans, experts and chancers – the underbelly of the Edwardian antiques trade. ''What a story! And how skilfully told! A tale about treasure, as twisty and thrilling as any of the adventures of Indiana Jones.'' Lucy Worsley June 1912. A pair of workmen deposit a heavy ball of clay in the antiques shop of George Fabian Lawrence, or ‘Stony Jack’ as he''s better known. As Lawrence picks through the mud, a speck of gold catches his eye. A pearl earring tumbles into his hand, then another. A Burmese ruby follows; then Colombian emeralds, lapis lazuli from Afghanistan and turquoise from Iran; tankards; watches; topaz; amazonite. Stony Jack has discovered the greatest single cache of Elizabethan treasure. Diving into London’s bustling, sometimes lawless, antiques trade at the turn of the century, Victoria Shepherd provides a compelling portrait of the city at the height of empire. A thrilling ride through Edwardian London, from the marble halls of the British Museum to the East End''s maze of tenements and alleyways, Stony Jack and the Lost Jewels of Cheapside oversees the transformation of the city into a modern metropolis.

Local - Jessica Machado
A powerful, lush memoir about a Hawaiian woman who ran away from paradise to discover who she is and where she belongs.Born and raised in Hawai‘i by a father whose ancestors are indigenous to the land and a mother from the American South, Jessica Machado wrestles with what it means to be “local.” Feeling separate from the history and tenets of Hawaiian culture that have been buried under the continental imports of malls and MTV, Jessica often sees her homeland reflected back to her from the tourist perspective—as an uncomplicated paradise. Her existence, however, feels far from that ideal. Balancing her parents’ divorce, an ailing mother, and growing anxiety, Jessica rebels. She moves to Los Angeles, convinced she’ll leave her complicated family behind and define herself. Instead, her isolation only becomes more severe, and her dying mother follows her to California. For Jessica, the only way to escape is a reckless downward spiral.Interwoven with a rich and nuanced exploration of Hawaiian history and traditions, Local is a personal and moving narrative about family, grief, and reconnecting to the land she tried to leave behind.

Benchmarking in Food and Farming - Lisa Jack
At a time when food producers have to make significant changes to their businesses in order to survive, a review of benchmarking in agriculture and discussion of its future potential is critical. This book meets that need by providing an overview of existing benchmarking practices in agriculture and the food supply chain, and evaluating the potential of these practices to drive sustainable innovation in food and farming. Increasing pressures from commodity markets, corporate buyers, government and rising input prices (particularly fuel prices) are creating an environment in which farmers and their advisors are keen to make greater use of performance information for survival and growth. Where farmers are diversifying into alternative production methods, non-agricultural enterprises and on-farm production and sales, the greater the interest in a wider range of accounting tools for decision making. Lisa Jack and her contributors draw on a wide range of data and sources from Australia, New Zealand, the USA, the UK and Europe to provide critical evaluations of what might be considered ''state of the art'' benchmarking practices at this time, including recent strategic developments such as the use of non-financial measures in balanced scorecards. The food and farming industry is unusual in that benchmarking takes place among large numbers of small, family-owned businesses working in a global industry. Not only, therefore, is this book important for those working in food supply chain businesses, but also for those involved in the general practice of benchmarking.

Nina Simone's Gum - Ellis Warren
From award-winning musician and composer Warren Ellis comes the unexpected and inspiring story of a piece of chewing gum. Featuring an introduction from Nick Cave. "Warren has turned this memento, snatched from his idol’s piano in a moment of rapture, into a genuine religious artefact." Nick Cave On Thursday 1 July, 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave’s Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage, took Dr Simone’s piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, growing in significance with every passing year. In 2019, Cave – his collaborator and great friend – asked Warren if there was anything he could contribute to display in his Stranger Than Kindness exhibition. Warren realized the time had come to release the gum. Together they agreed it should be housed in a glass case like a holy relic. Worrying the gum would be damaged or lost, Warren decided to first have it cast in silver and gold, sparking a chain of events that no one could have predicted, one that would take him back to his childhood and his relationship to found objects. Nina Simone’s Gum is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love.

Czech Lessons - Jessica Kendall Hankiewicz
What is it like to move to a formerly communist, Eastern Bloc country just as it is coming to know the West? How much can a new and free generation teach an outsider who is willing to watch, to listen, and to integrate? Written from the perspective of an American emigrant settling in the Czech Republic not long after the fall of communism, Czech Lessons tracks the metamorphosis of both the Czech people and their new republic over the past two decades, capturing a unique period in this humble Central European country's development. Alternating between history, humor, politics, and memoir, Jessica Kendall Hankiewicz's book of essays delves into the intangible qualities that make up both a nation and a nationality, bringing daily Czech life and culture sharply into focus. From the benefits of a social democracy to the national obsession with nature, Czech Lessons not only magnifies this small country for the world to see, but also offers up a mirror for the Czech people themselves. "Surrounded by remnants of a difficult past, faltering technology, and Czechs who couldn't help but stare at foreigners, I seemed to be taking several steps into the past, even as the country was careening forward with ambition. It was a rare opportunity to begin a relationship with the former Czechoslovakia as it slowly found its personality and its future.” Jaké to je přestěhovat se do post-komunistické země východního bloku v okamžiku, kdy se setkává se Západem? Co všechno může nové svobodné pokolení naučit člověka zvenku, který je ochoten sledovat, naslouchat a nechat se vtáhnout? Czech Lessons je kniha napsaná z perspektivy americké emigrantky, která se usazuje v České republice několik let po pádu komunismu. Autorka sleduje proměnu Čechů a jejich nově vzniklé republiky v uplynulých dvou dekádách a zachycuje jedinečné období vývoje tohoto skromného středoevropského státu. Jessica Kendall Hankiewicz napsala eseje, které se dotýkají dějin, politiky, ale rovněž osobních vzpomínek. Kniha s adekvátní kapkou humoru zkoumá nepostižitelné vlastnosti, ze kterých sestává národ a zároveň národnost, a přináší ostrý obraz české kultury i každodennosti. Širokou paletou témat, od výhod sociální demokracie až po českou zálibu v pobytu v přírodě, nejenže knížka Czech Lessons zpřítomňuje tuto malou zemi světovým čtenářům, ale také nabízí zrcadlo samotným Čechům. "Kolem jsem viděla pozůstatky komplikované minulosti, plně nerozvinuté technologie, Čechy, kteří chtě nechtě hleděli na cizince s údivem ve tváři, a připadalo mi, že kráčím zpět do minulosti, přestože se tato země ambiciózně řítí vpřed. Otevírala se přede mnou vzácná příležitost navázat vztah s někdejším Československem, které pomalu hledalo svoji povahu a svoji budoucnost."

Unlimited Motherhood - Jessica Hurlbut
Forces OUTSIDE You Can''t Stop the God WITHIN You It''s easy to feel overwhelmed and limited by the demands on your life as a mom.

Revealing 12 limits that hinder mothers--very real things like exhaustion, distractions, and disillusionment--Jessica empowers you to respond in obedience rather than react in emotions.
