This is a biography lightened with the intimate tone of a social memoir, about a woman who was both a bystander and protagonist through some fifty years of twentieth-century British history. Pamela Berry was the daughter of the buccaneering and brilliant politician and lawyer, FE Smith, the first Earl of Birkenhead, and married the son of another self-made man, William Berry from South Wales, who became Viscount Camrose and the owner of a group of national newspapers, including the Daily Telegraph. She had an unusually glamorous and precocious childhood, spoiled by her adoring father, and much photographed by Cecil Beaton. In her prime she used her position as a newspaper proprietor’s wife to become the most famous political and press hostess of her generation, harnessing her beauty and wit to influence successive governments, and was accused of wielding ‘petticoat power’ during the Suez crisis. She had a decade-long affair with Malcolm Muggeridge, became a vigorous promoter of British fashion, dragging it out of the dowdy fifties, and in later life was active in the museum world. Harriet Cullen has opened a window back into the remarkable story of her mother’s life from a rich cache of family diaries and letters, interweaving them with many other unpublished sources. It is revealing, in turns scathing and admiring, but always entertaining.

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 WOMEN''S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTIONHow the UK legal system is failing women, as told by one of Britain’s foremost lawyers.‘Sister in Law is compelling, shocking and inspiring in equal measure..this accessible book is a must for anyone interested in justice, society and using the law to achieve change.’ - The Times''Enraging and astonishing.'' - Guardian''A remarkable book chronicling an astonishing career ... Highly recommended.'' - Secret Barrister‘Every feminist should know Harriet Wistrich’s name. There is no one better to learn from if you want to Get Shit Done.’ Helen Lewis, author of Difficult Women*****For more than quarter of a century, Harriet Wistrich has fought the corner of people from all walks of life let down by our justice system.She has been at the forefront of some historic and ground-breaking legal victories, from helping the victims of taxi driver and serial rapist John Worboys, to representing a pioneering group of the women caught up in the ‘spy cops’ scandal – women deceived into forming long-term relationships with men later revealed to be undercover police officers.Litigation can be a long and rocky path of pitfalls and dead ends and there are defeats as well as gains, hours of painstaking work as well as courtroom drama.It takes collaboration, extraordinary tenacity and huge compassion, but Harriet Wistrich is proof that it is possible to demand better justice and to bring about important change.Exploring landmark cases, Sister in Law covers the shocking true stories demonstrating that, terrifyingly often, the law is not-fit-for-purpose for half the population and shines a feminist light on the landscape of arcane laws and systems skewed towards men.*****Praise for Sister in Law:‘Shocking, compelling and invigorating... A must read from one of the foremost feminist human rights lawyers today'' Keina Yoshida & Jen Robinson''A brilliant lawyer. A brilliant book'' - Baroness Helena Kennedy KC''Harriet''s innovative, intense and courageous commitment to safeguarding basic rights, is compellingly set out in every chapter.'' - Michael Mansfield KC‘A vivid account of cases in which the justice system has spectacularly failed women but also of how injustices can be challenged if only we know enough and care enough to do so.’ Rt Hon Lady Hale DBE''If I was ever in trouble, I would want Harriet Wistrich fighting in my corner.'' - Emeritus Professor David Wilson, author of My Life with Murderers

''That''s what we are''It''s the 1970s, and Sarah has spent a lifetime trying to bury memories of her childhood: the constant fear, the horror of her school days, and Fane, the vast, crumbling house that was the sole obsession of her mother, Iris, a woman as beautiful as she was cruel. Sarah''s solace has been her cello and the music that allowed her to dream, transporting her from the bleakness of those early years to her new life with her husband Daniel in their safe, if slightly chaotic, Hampstead home and with a concert career that has brought her fame and restored a sense of self.The past, though, has a habit of creeping into the present, and as long as Sarah tries to escape, it seems the pull of her mother, Fane Hall and the secrets hidden there cannot be suppressed, threatening to unravel the fragile happiness she enjoys now. Sarah will need to travel back to Fane to confront her childhood, and search for the true meaning of home.Deliciously absorbing and rich with character and atmosphere, The Stargazers is the story of a house, a family, and finding the strength inside yourself to carry on.Readers love The Stargazers:''I absolutely loved this book . . . it was both beautiful and melancholy.

The works of Harriet Backer, the grande dame of Norwegian Painting. Harriet Backer (1845–1932) was one of NorwayÂ’s most prominent painters of the nineteenth century and a pioneer among women artists in Europe. In 1880, she debuted in the Paris Salon and lived in Munich and Paris. Back in Oslo, she established a successful school for painters. BackerÂ’s richly colored interior scenes, sensitive portrayals of simple rural life, portraits, and still lives are characterized by plein-air painting, realism, and Impressionism. Her works stand out, not only in Norway, but also in the European context, when it comes to originality, scope, and quality. The publication highlights her artistic achievements and places her oeuvre in the European context. Harriet Backer: Every Atom is Colour presents Backer to an international audience, thus giving her back the place she deserves in art history. Â

Co se skutečně stalo 20. dubna 1999 na střední škole Columbine? Studenti Eric Harris a Dylan Klebold zastřelili dvanáct spolužáků, jednoho učitele a plánovali vyvraždit celou školu. Masakr na střední škole v Columbine v Coloradu zanechal nesmazatelnou stopu v americké psychice, ale většina toho, co „víme", je mylná. Nešlo o sportovce, gotiky ani „trenčkotovou mafii“. Dave Cullen byl jedním z prvních reportérů na místě a deset let pracoval na této knize, která je všeobecně uznávána jako definitivní popis celé události a všeho, co k ní vedlo. S nadhledem vyšetřovatele a psychologickou bystrostí se opírá o hory důkazů, poznatky předních světových forenzních psychologů a vlastní slova a kresby vrahů. Deset let připravovaná kniha, mistrovské reportážní dílo žánru True Crime, je definitivním popisem nejznámějšího amerického školního masakru, jeho následků a významu od uznávaného novináře, který sledoval příběh od samého počátku. Po událostech v Auroře a na školách Sandy Hook a Virginia Tech je nutnost pochopit zločin, který tuto pohromu vyvolal, rok od roku naléhavější.

Souborné vydání uzavřené dvanáctisešitové série.Skupinka pěti lidí s děsivými nadpřirozenými schopnostmi, odvozenými od pěti smyslů, za sebou zanechává hluboko v Apalačských horách jen smrt a zkázu. Jedna z nich, Regan, která dokáže zabíjet pohledem, se od zbytku skupiny oddělí a skrývá se, stíhána pocitem viny, v levných motelech a hospodách, ale jen do chvíle, než ji po pomstě toužící Hana donutí vypátrat zbylé čtyři členy její skupiny. Příběh o lidech s nadpřirozenými schopnostmi napsal Cullen Bunn (Pochmurný kraj) a nakreslil německý výtvarník Jonas Scharf.
