New Wild Order - Andy Hamilton
This book is not about aspirational living; it’s about practical living. It’s about looking at the world around you and finding where it’s at fault, rather than blaming yourself. It’s about dropping the comfortable prisons we create for ourselves to find the real freedom and happiness we deserve. We live in a world that is overfed but malnourished, sunlight deficient, overly competitive, sedentary, and sleep deprived. Our blood pressure and stress levels are at record highs, our mental health at record lows. Our eyes are strained from looking at screens all the time, and our backs are killing us. We buy far too much of what we don’t need, and we aren’t even pooing in the right position!Yet step outside, maybe walk a few minutes down the road, and you will inevitably see plants bursting with nourishment, hear calming birdsong, breathe in fresh air, move your stiff body. Perhaps we have the answer to all our modern malaises right here, outside our own homes. Perhaps it is time for a New Wild Order. Join forager, author, dad, and everyday fella Andy Hamilton, as he answers his own call of the wild, and discovers how it might just save his life — and yours.

Onward And Upward In The Garden - Elwyn Brooks White, E. B. White, Katharine White
In 1925 Harold Ross hired Katharine Sergeant Angell as a manuscript reader for The New Yorker. Within months she became the magazine’s first fiction editor, discovering and championing the work of Vladimir Nabokov, John Updike, James Thurber, Marianne Moore, and her husband-to-be, E. B. White, among others. After years of cultivating fiction, White set her sights on a new genre: garden writing. On March 1, 1958, The New Yorker ran a column entitled “Onward and Upward in the Garden,” a critical review of garden catalogs, in which White extolled the writings of “seedmen and nurserymen,” those unsung authors who produced her “favorite reading matter.” Thirteen more columns followed, exploring the history and literature of gardens, flower arranging, herbalists, and developments in gardening. Two years after her death in 1977, E. B. White collected and published the series, with a fond introduction. The result is this sharp-eyed appreciation of the green world of growing things, of the aesthetic pleasures of gardens and garden writing, and of the dreams that gardens inspire.

Oceán mimo zákon - Urbina Ian
Romantické představy o pirátech hoďte přes palubu. Nelidské zacházení s pracovníky rybářských lodí, drancování přírodního bohatství nebo pašování zbraní - zdá se, že nekonečný prostor mezinárodních vod schová všechno. Reportér The New York Times Ian Urbina se rozhodl trochu víc prozkoumat území, které tvoří tři čtvrtiny zemského povrchu. Výsledkem jeho pětiletého cestování křížem krážem po světě je nejen kniha reportáží The Outlaw Ocean, ale i stejnojmenná nezisková organizace rozkrývající bezpráví v mořích a oceánech. Investigativní novinář strávil týdny na lodích ekologických organizací, které stíhají lovce velryb. Zažil bezčasí dlouhých plaveb i nebezpečné střety s piráty. Mluvil s lidmi nasazujícími vlastní život při vysvobozování novodobých otroků v rybářském průmyslu. Upozorňoval na luxusní mnohapatrové jachty s bazény vypouštějící všechny odpady přímo do oceánu. Přesto se v jeho reportážích objevují i okamžiky okouzlení divokou krásou živlu, který lidé nikdy nedokáží zkrotit - a bohužel ani ochránit.

Cry of the Wild - Charles Foster
What is it like to live in a world built by humans? These eight genre-blending stories reveal the complexity, beauty and fragility of wild lives.''Evocative and beautifully written, it''s a deeply immersive read'' Observer''Enchanting and emotional...personifies its characters as they navigate the new wild and its trials.'' Chris Packham''Charles Foster is the most original voice in nature writing today - funny, urgent, poetic, philosophical and deeply moving'' Patrick Barkham''Utterly exhilarating... This book demands we change our ways'' Lee SchofieldWe have long since isolated ourselves from our fellow animals, banishing them into exile and dominating the land they once roamed. But still they endure on the edges of our existence: a fox grown strong on pepperoni pizza from the dustbins of the East End, a rabbit dodging a bullet, a gannet diving through an oil slick.In spellbinding prose, Charles Foster gives us a bird’s eye view, or indeed an orca’s or an otter’s, of the wonders and struggles of the natural world.At once exhilarating and deeply moving, Cry of the Wild reconnects us with our animal side and brings us face to face, or whisker to whisker, with eight creatures (including humans) that we have pushed to the fringes, imploring us to change our ways.''There aren''t many writers like Charles around... a deeply thought-provoking book'' James Aldred''Reading this book feels like being made suddenly omniscient. In other words, you really have to'' Tom Moorhouse''Astonishingly playful, humorous, immensely varied and outrageously intelligent...

Garden Wild - Andre Baranowski, Dorothy Kalins
This book is a survey of 12 breathtakingly beautiful gardens by award-winning photographer Andre Baranowski, whose eye for beauty will embolden readers the world over to embrace their inner instincts and create their own garden wild.The new movement in contemporary gardening is about going back to the wilderness, creatively landscaping with native plants to enrich their environments and seamlessly merge with their natural surroundings.

New York City''s Highline is a famous example and this landscaping approach is becoming increasingly popular for private homeowners. This book surveys twelve such breathtaking gardens captured by award winning photographer Andre Baranowski. The featured gardens range from small private residencies to large properties, by renowned landscapers such as Oehme van Sweden, Fernando Caruncho, Jorge Sanchez, and Piet Oudolf. The texts detail each project''s approach and the hurdles presented by its landscape, providing the reader with an array of instructional ideas from an insider''s mindset. Guaranteed to be a boundless source of inspiration and treasured by lovers of gardens worldwide.

Journeys of Love - Thomas Hodgson
An empathetic and eye-opening portrait of Muslim migrants in England that debunks many misperceptions about their music and poetry.  In Journeys of Love, ethnomusicologist Thomas Hodgson offers a sensitive corrective to harmful portrayals of immigrants—specifically, Pakistanis living in England—as a self-segregating group prohibited from making music, a stereotype that has often resulted in violent Islamophobia. He argues that, in practice, these migrants—many of whom come from the Mirpur area of Azad Kashmir—occupy rich musical worlds, full of poetic metaphors, that are central to surviving migration and its attendant losses.  Hodgson shows how Mirpuris in England, as well as those who remain in Pakistan, carry on traditions of reciting a collection of poetry by the nineteenth-century Sufi saint Mian Muhammad Bakhsh, translated by Hodgson here as Journeys of Love. With its themes of remaining true to one’s home, the oppressed being saved, having patience, and keeping faith in God, this work has become the story of movement and displacement in its narrative arc, as well as through the way it provides spiritual and ethical frameworks for settling in new lands. These hidden poetics of migration transform across generations as young Mirpuris develop new expressions of the connections across continents. These poetics reveal the connections between Kashmir’s rural village life and urban centers abroad, offering a sensitive and illuminating portrait of migration and multiculturalism in Britain and beyond.Â

Lost in the neon heat of his parents' homeland, though, all he finds is alienation.

Whatever he thought Taiwan would give him, it hasn’t worked: he feels as distanced and resentful of his heritage as he ever has. Then, a chance encounter with a mysterious older man draws him into a friendship where the terms of engagement are quickly, ominously blurred. For every tentative step towards connection, Sean’s grasp on reality unravels, as the demands of the past and the present begin to take their toll.

For every tentative step towards connection, Sean’s grasp on reality unravels, as the demands of the past and the present begin to take their toll. As events draw to a disturbing head, Sean’s mind spirals, until he’s not sure what’s left of him at all. Appealing to fans of Boy Parts and Luster, I’m New Here is a thrilling, hallucinatory debut and masterclass in unreliable narration that positions Ian Russell-Hsieh as one of the most exciting new authors in the UK.

Brána do sveta príšer - William Hope Hodgson
"Neuveriteľne pôsobivým opisom svetov a bytostí číhajúcich kdesi za prahom všedného života sa vyznačuje tvorba Williama H. Hodgsona, ktorý je v súčasnosti oveľa menej známy, než by si zaslúžil." H. P. Lovecraft Starobylé, rubášom noci zahalené domy a hrady mávajú svoje tajomstvá. V každom sa zaručene nájde nejaký duch, lenže v niektorých vyčíňajú aj omnoho nebezpečnejšie prízraky a monštrá... Z komnát sa tam za nocí ozývajú desivé zvuky, zo stropov kvapká krv a niekto, alebo niečo práve prudko rozrazilo dvere a zahasilo všetky sviece. V podobných prípadoch môže zasiahnuť jedine znalec okultných úkazov a zároveň detektív. Presne takým je Thomas Carnacki - vyšetrovateľ paranormálnych záhad, ktorého začiatkom 20. storočia stvoril anglický spisovateľ William H. Hodgson. Bol jedným z prvých svojho druhu v literatúre a vďaka prezieravému pohľadu na svet tušil, že občas sa za zdanlivými prízrakmi nehmotného sveta môže v skutočnosti skrývať aj človek s temnými úmyslami. Ale čo je vlastne väčšie zlo? Zapáľte oheň v krbe, usaďte sa do pohodlného kresla a vydajte sa spolu s lovcom duchov, Thomasom Carnackim do sveta, kde sú hranice reality a nadprirodzena takmer nepostrehnuteľné...

The Night Land - William Hope Hodgson
Aeons in the future, Earth''s surface faces perpetual night after the failing of the Sun. Humanity is entrenched within the Last Redoubt, a colossal metal pyramid. Beyond the safety of its structure lurk countless unknowable threats.William Hope Hodgson''s strange, visionary novel of humanity''s struggle for survival in the eternal darkness of the future was first published in 1912, and is widely acknowledged to be one of the foundation works of the ''Dying Earth'' subgenre of Fantasy and Science Fiction. Written in a style composed of strange archaisms which fuel the weird sense of disorientation, this cult classic has won the admiration of writers from Brian Aldiss to C S Lewis, who wrote: ''The Night Land gives, like certain rare dreams, sensations we never had before.''

Carnacki, the Ghost Finder - William Hope Hodgson
William Hope Hodgson, an English author, collected occult detective short stories under the title Carnacki the Ghost-Finder.The Grey Room, a chamber in an old mansion, was the scene of a gruesome murder many years ago. He underestimates the strength of the manifestation, and he spends a wretched, terrifying night within his electrified pentacle. In Ireland, a derelict home exhibits paranormal activity, including what seems to be blood falling from the roof. Carnacki assembles a team of strong neighborhood guys and many dogs for the investigation. According to a Celtic tradition, a court jester was once burned to death while whistling in the fireplace of the chamber. The chamber is then completely destroyed, with all of its components being burnt in a blast furnace inside of a protective pentacle that features an old Celtic inscription. There is a female firstborn for the first time in seven generations, and her fiancée has just had her arm shattered by an unidentified attacker. Carnacki looks into a haunting that has occurred at his mother's home. The tenant informs Carnacki about the house's enigmatic past and rumours of a ghostly woman. Carnacki spends the night at the chapel dressed in armour, his camera at the ready to capture any enigmatic occurrences. He had been hearing strange noises all night.

The Woods - Rob Hodgson
Here are the woods. The woods are home to three foxes on a hunt for rabbits. Three foxes that don’t realise someone might be following them… From the author of The Cave, this is a fantastically funny cat-and-mouse (or fox-and-rabbit) story with a not-so-fluffy twist. The foxes follow some helpful signs over the tallest trees, under the carrot fields and through the pumpkin patch, but there’s no sign of any rabbits. What on earth has happened to them? And why are there strange eyes following them from the trees? This is a great title for entertaining children indoors: they will love outwitting the foxes – who continually say, 'No rabbits here' – by spotting the rabbits in each colourful illustration! Don't miss Rob Hodgson's other hilarious books: The Cave, which was chosen for the Booktrust Time to Read Campaign 2019, and My Best Friend.

Magic Is Dead: My Journey into the World's Most Secretive Society of Magicians - Ian Frisch
In the vein of Neil Strauss The Game and Joshua Foer s Moonwalking with Einstein comes the fascinating story of one man s colorful, mysterious, and personal journey into the world of magic, and his unlikely invitation into an underground secret society of revolutionary magicians from around the world. Magic Is Dead is Ian Frisch s head-first dive into a hidden world full of extraordinary characters and highly guarded secrets. It is a story of imagination, deception, and art that spotlights today s most brilliant young magicians a mysterious club known as the52, who are revolutionizing an ancient artform under the mantra Magic Is Dead. Ian brings us with him as he not only gets to know this fascinating world, but also becomes an integral part of it. We meet the52 s founding members Laura London, Daniel Madison, and Chris Ramsay and explore their personal demons, professional aspirations, and what drew them to their craft. We join them at private gatherings of the most extraordinary magicians working today, follow them to magic conventions in Las Vegas and England, and discover some of the best tricks of the trade. We also encounter David Blaine; hang out with Penn Jillette; meet Dynamo, the U.K. s most famous magician; and go behind the scenes of a Netflix magic show. Magic Is Dead is also a chronicle of magic s rich history and how it has changed in the internet age, as the young guns embrace social media and move away from the old-school take on the craft. As he tells the story of the52, and his role as its most unlikely member, Ian reveals his own connection with trickery and deceit and how he first learned the elements that make magic work from his poker-playing mother. He recalls their adventures in card rooms and casinos after his father s sudden death, and shares a touching moment that he had, as a working journalist, with his childhood idol Shaquille O Neal. Magic the romanticism of the inexplicable, the awe and admiration of the unexpected is an underlying force in how we view the world and its myriad possibilities, Ian writes. As his journey continues, Ian not only becomes a performer and creator of magic even fooling the late Anthony Bourdain during a chance encounter he also cements a new brotherhood, and begins to understand his relationship with his father, fifteen years after his death. Written with psychological acuity and a keen eye for detail, Magic Is Dead is an engrossing tale full of wonder and surprise.
