Little Silver - Jane Griffiths
A poetry collection on inheritance, loss, and the relationship between real and imagined lives.In Little Silver, moments of crisis – a near-drowning, a fall down a mine-shaft, the death of a friend – prompt reflection on the stories ‘we tell ourselves about our / selves’, and on the sheer strangeness of existing in our bodies and in time. The book’s title sequence responds to the recent demolition of Jane Griffiths’ childhood home, whose absence appears as ‘a little silvering between the trees’. Setting its absence against the memory of ‘Little Silver’, a small enclave of houses in Exeter that she passed on the way home from school (and whose name fascinated her), she considers the gap between the two as the space of the imagination: the origins of her writing.Other poems centre on the theme of childlessness and the relationship between that and other kinds of making; a sequence centred on conversations between an artist and her imaginary children concludes when the daughter asks ‘So if we existed the tree could stand alone?’ The emphasis in these poems is on inventiveness and endeavour, on lifelines and human traces.

Hush Little Baby - Jane Isaacová
Gripping subjects, brilliantly drawn characters and a twisty turny journey from beginning to end. A tense, thrilling read and definitely 5 humongous stars from me Angela Marsons. Someone stole a baby... One sunny day in July, someone took three-month-old Alicia Owen from her pram outside a supermarket. Her mother, Marie, was inside. No one saw who took Alicia. And no one could find her. They silenced her cry... Fifteen years later, a teenager on a construction site sees a tiny hand in the ground. When the police investigate, they find a baby buried and preserved in concrete. Could it be Alicia? But the truth will always out. When Alicia disappeared, the papers accused Marie of detachment and neglect. The Owens never got over the grief of their child s disappearance and divorced not long after. By reopening the case, DC Beth Chamberlain must reopen old wounds. But the killer may be closer than anyone ever suspected... The latest crime thriller featuring Family Liaison Officer DC Beth Chamberlain, Hush Little Baby is tightly plotted, fraught with tension and impossible to put down. Perfect for fans of Cara Hunter and K.L. Slater. Praise for Jane Isaac: Jane Isaac knows how to tell a good yarn. Expertly plotted and true to life Mel Sherratt on For Better, For Worse. Isaac does a superb job of escalating the tension and dread Publishers Weekly. Move over La Plante... Susan May, Suspense Magazine.

A brilliant novel of love, loss, forgiveness, and healing wrapped in Cornwall start to finish. Liz Fenwick This book does not hesitate to evoke a sense of wonder. Robin Hobb In a valley steeped in legend lies an abandoned house where Edens may be lost, found and remade... The White Valley in the far west of Cornwall cuts deeply through bluebell woods down to the sea. The house above the beach has lain neglected since the war. It comes with a reputation, which is why Mila and her mother Magda acquire it so cheaply in the fateful summer of 1954. Magda plans to restore the house to its former glory: the venue for glittering parties, where the rich and celebrated gathered for bracing walks by day and sumptuous cocktails by night. Mila s ambitions, meanwhile, are much less grand; she dreams of creating a safe haven for herself, and a happy home for her little girl, Janey. The White Valley comes with a long, eventful history, laced with tall tales. Locals say that a white hare may be seen running through the woods there; to some she s an ill omen, to others a blessing. Feeling fragile and broken-hearted, Mila is in need of as many blessings as she can get. But will this place provide the fresh start she so desperately needs?

How Animals Heal Us - Jay Griffiths
rom celebrated author Jay Griffiths comes a unique and heartfelt insight into the healing nature of our relationship with animalsPet-owners and animal-lovers instinctively know that animals heal. This book offers the evidence, drawing widely on scientific discoveries, history, and Indigenous knowledge. We meet a pot-bellied pig who saved her owner s life, lions who guarded a girl from kidnappers, dolphins and whales rescuing people in danger, and dogs who can smell cancer and phone the Emergency Services.Animal sounds, from insects to birdsong and the purring of cats, are directly medicinal and their presence can heal the pain of loneliness. Animals, including donkeys, can be natural therapists for the hurt psyche, alleviating trauma, fear and depression. In this original, revelatory and exuberant book, Jay Griffiths explores how animals can have a role in every level of healing, from the individual to the collective, guiding us in how we might create societies that are healthier, fairer and kinder.Wolves may be teachers of ethics; monkeys and dogs can object to unfairness and bees take collective decisions. Animals are irresistible medicine for a healthy culture, animating the arts with spectacular vitality and verve, as poetry knows. Open-hearted, playful and wise, How Animals Heal Us puts animals at the heart of a restorative vision of health.

Silver Screens - Jane Crowther
A celebration of the world’s most cherished cinemas, from vintage movie houses to quirky start-ups.There is an enduring love for old cinemas. It may have something to do with Maya Angelou’s famous quote that ‘…people will never forget how you made them feel’. Cinemas have been the places where all kinds of emotions have been felt – heartstrings are tugged, fears exposed, and then there is that explosion of joy with a happy ending. Cinemas are a place of communal experience, of first dates, of strong reactions. And you remember them. That’s why people hate to see cinemas torn down.Silver Screens is a celebration of movie houses and drive-ins from around the world that continue to show feature films. All cinemas are working and open for business – the book works as a part travel guide featuring a directory of contact addresses so you can visit each one that s listed.There are the wonderful art deco masterpieces, such as the 1938 Rex in Berkhamsted; or the art deco Raj Mandir in Jaipur, India; or the Sun Theatre in Melbourne, an art deco building that now holds eight cinemas each named after a closed Melbourne movie house.There are historic cinemas – such as the Texas Theater, Dallas, where Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested (his seat is flagged). And the Biopic in Chicago where John Dillinger was gunned down as he left.There are the far-flung cinemas from around the globe, the most northerly, the most southerly, the biggest single screen (India), the official smallest cinema (in Italy) the oldest in Britain, the oldest in the World.There are the famous cinemas – such as Mann’s Chinese Theater or the Egyptian in Hollywood, or Cine Dore Filmoteca in Madrid which featured in Pedro Almodovar’s Talk to Her and Pain Glory which survived a direct hit from an artillery shell in the Spanish Civil War.So grab your popcorn and settle in. Welcome to the world of Silver Screens, where the magic of cinema lives on.
