The Bolter - Frances Osborne
Idina Sackville - the 1920 s style icon and seductress who Taylor Swift fans think The Bolter could be inspired by BustleIn 1934 Idina Sackville met the son she had last seen fifteen years earlier when she shocked high society by running off to Africa with a near-penniless man, abandoning him, his brother and their father. So scandalous was Idina s life - she was said to have had lovers without number - that it was kept a secret from her great-granddaughter, Frances Osborne. Now Osborne explores her moving tale of betrayal and heartbreak. A corker of a subject... probably inspired The Bolter in Nancy Mitford s The Pursuit of Love... A breakneck-paced, thoroughly diverting story THE TIMES A tragic and deeply moving tale... far more gripping than any novel I have read for years ANTONY BEEVOR Frances Osborne has brilliantly captured not only one woman s life but an entire lost society AMANDA FOREMAN An enthralling account of a dazzling, troubled life JULIAN FELLOWES

The Art of Memory - Frances Yatesová
This unique and brilliant book is a history of human knowledge.Before the invention of printing, a trained memory was of vital importance. Based on a technique of impressing places and images on the mind, the ancient Greeks created an elaborate memory system which in turn was inherited by the Romans and passed into the European tradition, to be revived, in occult form, during the Renaissance.Frances Yates sheds light on Danteâ ™s Divine Comedy, the form of the Shakespearian theatre and the history of ancient architecture; The Art of Memory is an invaluable contribution to aesthetics and psychology, and to the history of philosophy, of science and of literature.

The Rules of Magic - Alice Hoffman
Everyone needs a little magic in their lives... The Rules of Magic is the long-awaited prequel to Practical Magic, and a New York Times bestseller and Reese Witherspoon #39;s Book Club pick! In this sparkling prequel we meet the Aunts from Practical Magic, sisters Frances and Jet and Vincent, their brother. From the beginning their mother Susanna knew they were unique: Franny with her skin as pale as milk and blood red hair, who could commune with birds; Jet as shy as she is beautiful, who knows what others are thinking, and Vincent so charismatic that he was built for trouble. Susanna needed to set some rules of magic: no walking in the moonlight, no red shoes, no wearing black, no cats, no crows, no candles and certainly, absolutely, no books about magic… But the Owens siblings are desperate to uncover who they really are. Each heads down a life-altering course, filled with secrets and truths, devastation and joy, and magic and love. Despite the warning handed down through the family for centuries – Know that for our family, love is a curse – they will all strive to break the rules and find true love.***A perfect read for crisp autumn nights!*** Praise for The Rules of Magic: ‘The combination of magic with the universal themes of romantic love and the bond between siblings allows the reader to have one foot in a magical world and another in the realities of family life. Much like the bewitching heroines in this book.’ – The Lady ‘Utterly spellbinding’ - Heat ‘Shows the author at their best… She neatly intertwines their lives with a backdrop that brims with periodic detail. Gnomic maxims add to a wise, seductive, fabular tone… Thrilling and transportive’ – Sunday Times ‘Enchanting… Spellbinding and entertaining’ – Sunday Express ‘Hoffman explores Aunt Frances and Aunt Bridget’s (known here as Jet) awakening to the craft in the 1960s. Franny and Jet, along with their brother Vincent, stay with their Aunt Isabelle. Each of their gifts grow, but can they use them to break the family curse? The Rules of Magic is a gentle tale, perfect as the nights draw in #39; – Press Association ‘As efficient a slice of escapism as you would expect from Hoffman… Hoffman’s skill is to ground her light-as-a-feather tale in a very specific time and place: Manhattan in the Sixties. Wisely, she doesn’t rely on the momentous times to do too much work, but the heady atmospherics are expertly interwoven’ – Daily Mail ‘A bewitching, hard to put down tale of the consequences of magic, love and family’ - Bookbag

James s tales can be traps and ruses; they can also be complex self-descriptions in which his own fears and desires have full reign Frances Wilson, from her Preface to The Beast in the Jungle Other TalesThis collection is made up of the later works in Henry James s repertoire, into which he threw the full weight of his creative fears - notably those concerned with the life he missed out on while distilling his experiences into literature. The stories explore the stairwells of the mind, where consciousness is figured as a place, where one could, terrifyingly, encounter one s alter ego. Tales such as The Beast in the Jungle and The Jolly Corner in this collection are such horror stories of the self. James obsession with confrontation and escape is evident throughout this volume, often with marriage as the central tenet, as in The Bench of Desolation . They are not without comedy, however, as with the wild goose chase which makes up the central narrative in The Figure in the Carpet .Frances Wilson has selected these eleven stories and provided an original introduction to James s work.

So Larson takes his chances on the road, travelling west from Georgia until he breaks down in the nowhere town of Slut⠙s Hole, Wyoming.There he finds lodging with Chloë Sixbury, a one-legged sexagenarian widow, and her disabled son.

The Gathering Place - Mary Colwell
SHORTLISTED FOR THE EDWARD STANFORD TRAVEL BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 Deeply poetic. CAROLINE LUCAS MP A masterpiece of storytelling. NICK MAYHEW-SMITH Mary Colwell is a candle of open-minded curiosity. PATRICK LAURIE-Mary Colwell makes a solo pilgrimage along the Camino Francés winding through forests, mountains, farmland, industrial sprawls and places of worship. Pilgrims have always walked in times of upheaval, pitching themselves against weather, hunger, thirst and sometimes pain as they tread the paths their ancestors once followed. In the winter of 2020, author, nature campaigner and veteran solo walker Mary Colwell walked a 500-mile pilgrimage along the Camino Francés in northern Spain. In a typical year, many thousands of people walk this route, but Mary had it virtually to herself at a unique historical moment ⠓ a time of profound political change, escalating climate and biodiversity emergencies and global pandemic.The modern world weaves in and out of the Camino⠙s worn trackway, providing a focus for contemplation and a place for memories and experiences to gather. In her delightful book, Mary weaves experiences from her solo winter pilgrimage with stories from a walk millions have undertaken over the centuries. Her thoughtful and, at times, humorous journey of body and soul includes moments of intense spirituality, meetings with a demon slayer, strange goings-on and magical tales, and Mary⠙s exquisite descriptions of the constant backdrop of nature in all its complexity and wonder.

The Lasting Harm - Lucia Osborne-Crowley
WINNER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF SYDNEY PEOPLE S CHOICE AWARD WINNER OF THE DAVITT AWARD SHORTLISTED FOR THE GORDON BURN PRIZE SHORTLISTED FOR THE DOUGLAS STEWART PRIZE SHORTLISTED FOR THE VICTORIAN PREMIER S LITERARY PRIZE SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2025 NED KELLY AWARD FOR BEST TRUE CRIME LONGLISTED FOR THE WALKLEY BOOK AWARD LONGLISTED FOR THE NIB LITERARY AWARD THE BEST BOOK ON EPSTEIN OBSERVER I understand â “ and sympathise with â “ the feeling you might have that you already know the Jeffrey Epstein story. But I am not here to tell you a story about Jeffrey Epstein, or even Ghislaine Maxwell. I am here to tell you the stories of ten women, many of whom have never spoken at length before, about the real impact of sexual trauma on their lives In November 2021, Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of five counts of sex-trafficking of minors and is now serving twenty years in prison for the role she played in Jeffrey Epsteinâ ™s abuse of four girls. Journalist Lucia Osborne-Crowley was one of the only reporters allowed into the courtroom every day. In her meticulous account of this incendiary trial, Osborne-Crowley paints a blistering critique of a criminal justice system ill-equipped to deliver justice for abuse survivors, no matter the outcome. Written as a gripping true crime drama, The Lasting Harm critically questions our age-old appetite for crime and punishment, reframes trauma and offers a new blueprint for meaningful reparative justice.

In Search of the Perfect Peach - Franco Fubini
WITH A FOREWORD FROM TIM SPECTOR, author of The Diet Myth, Spoon-Fed and Food for LifeNamed BBC Radio 4 s The Food Programme Book of the Year, chosen by Dan Saladino Fubini takes readers on a tour—from tomato growers in Italy to flower farmers in Cornwall to citrus groves in California . . . [and] makes a compelling case for strengthening the connections between consumers and farmers. —Civil Eats A pioneering approach. —Anna Jones, cook and bestselling author of Easy WinsLet flavour guide our food choices – and lead us to a better food future. In Search of the Perfect Peach shows us how this simple desire can bring about a healthier, tastier and brighter future for our food, the people who produce it and the soil it grows in.That first bite of a perfectly ripe peach can be truly transformative – a joyful moment that will stay with you forever. For Franco Fubini, founder and CEO of Natoora, this encounter also leads him to realise that flavour is not simply a fleeting, visceral experience but a window into the farmer, a connection to our natural environment and a taste test for our food system.What makes a great-tasting tomato? Why is scarring on a greengage a good sign? Does ‘eating local’ narrow our priorities to the exclusion of others? In Search of the Perfect Peach follows Franco as he navigates the food system in pursuit of this elusive element. As he takes us from Sicily’s citrus groves to the streets of Mexico City, he shows how we have allowed the wider industry to compromise on more than just flavour.Franco’s search for the Greta peach culminates in his own clarity and conviction: by looking to flavour, we can unpick the industrialisation of our food production, restore nutrition and seasonal diversity to our plates and the craft of growing back to our landscapes. And, above all, we can find that perfect peach every summer. This exciting and important book now brings Natoora and all its ingredients not just to restaurants like ours but … to everyone’s home. —Ruth Rogers, chef and co-founder of The River Cafe An incredible read for those who love food and care about its future. In Search of the Perfect Peach is both a love story and technical guide. —Kyle Connaughton, chef and owner of SingleThread Farm, Restaurant and Inn By valuing and reclaiming flavour, Franco argues that we can transform the system and also enrich our relationship with food. Essential reading. —Dan Saladino, journalist, broadcaster and author of Eating to Extinction

The gold standard for intelligence, efficiency and humour. Now and forever DAVID SEDARIS She s inexhaustible - her personality, her knowledge, her brilliance, most of all her humour MARTIN SCORSESE The rare example of a legend living up to her own mythology. She really is THAT funny HADLEY FREEMANLebowitz turns her trademark caustic wit to the vicissitudes of life - from children ( rarely in the position to lend one a truly interesting sum of money ) to landlords ( it is the solemn duty of every landlord to maintain an adequate supply of roaches ). And her attitude to work is the perfect antidote to our exhausting culture of self-betterment ( 3.40pm. I consider getting out of bed. I reject the notion as being unduly vigorous. I read and smoke a bit more ).The Fran Lebowitz Reader was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 11-06-22
