The Trouble with Poetry is the new collection from probably the most popular poet in the entire planet, and finds everyone''s favourite contemporary Pre-Socratic in as funny and wise (and sometimes joyfully silly) form as ever. Billy Collins''s tone is inimitable. Drawled and knowing, yet without a hint of world-weariness or cynicism, he fearlessly addresses the reader as friend and intimate -- and comrade, inviting them to square up to the various collective crises of the bald ape in the 21st century. Collins remains the only poet who can write about the next-to-nothing of our lives, the little boredoms, habits and frustrations of our daily and domestic existence, revealing their true importance and meaning -- and demonstrating that the same historical and cosmic forces bear upon them as upon the great events of the age. ''Billy Collins is one of my favourite poets in the world'' Carol Ann Duffy ''I''d follow this man''s mind anywhere'' Michael Donaghy ''Billy Collins''s poems describe all the worlds that are and were and some others besides'' John Updike

My Lunch with Marilyn - and Other Stories is a brilliant, funny and often jaw-dropping collection from the journalist and writer Stanley Price - collated and edited by Munro Price, with a foreword by Maureen Lipman. It opens in late-1950s New York, with Price newly arrived at Life magazine and tasked with escorting Marilyn Monroe to a private lunch hosted by the formidable publisher Henry Luce - a set-piece of nerves, glamour and newsroom comedy that Price tells with perfect, dry timing. From there, the book ranges widely across showbusiness, publishing, theatre, Fleet Street and the absurdities of ordinary life. Price writes with a reporter's eye for detail, but also with a novelist's sense of scene: you'll find encounters and profiles (sometimes affectionate, sometimes wickedly appraising), along with sharply observed comic essays and true stories that only a working journalist could have stumbled into - or survived. Among the stand-out pieces are a memorable early assignment involving the boy-genius Bobby Fischer; a film-set tale featuring Graham Greene; backstage and theatrical stories (including one that features Jack Rosenthal and ends with an inspired practical joke); and modern London capers such as a number-plate cloning incident and a cash-machine "fiver" scam.

A major reassessment of the methods and meaning of impressionismAt pivotal moments in his career, Claude Monet would go out with a fellow artist, plant his easel beside his friend’s, and paint the same scene. Painting with Monet closely examines pairs of such works, showing how attention to this practice raises tantalizing new questions about Monet’s art and about impressionism as a movement.Is impressionist painting an objective attempt to capture reality as it really is? Or is it a subjective expression of the artist’s unique way of perceiving things? How can artists create a movement without conformity extinguishing individuality? Harmon Siegel reveals how Monet explored problems like these in concrete, practical ways while painting alongside his teachers, Eugène Boudin and Johan Barthold Jongkind; his friends, Frédéric Bazille and Pierre-Auguste Renoir; and his hero, Édouard Manet. At a time of major cultural upheavals, these artists asked how we can know reality beyond our personal perception. Siegel provides new insights into the aesthetic, philosophical, and ethical stakes for these painters as they responded to a rapidly changing society.Beautifully illustrated, Painting with Monet sheds critical light on how Monet and his fellow impressionists, painting side by side, professed their capacity to know the ...
