Becky Barnicoat

‘By turns bloody, sweet, bleak and joyful… It is also very, very funny’ NEW STATESMAN 
 
This is a graphic memoir (like a graphic novel, but true – and also a bit graphic). 
 
It’s about the delirium, chaos and strangeness of becoming a parent for the first time. 
 
It’s for every one who has ever wondered if it’s ok to cry when the baby cries – and also laugh, snort, lie on the floor naked and drool when the baby drools. 
 
This is definitely not a parenting manual, but it might be the only book about parenting you’ll ever need. 
 
‘You will cry, yes, but mainly snort with laughter’ SUNDAY TIMES 
 
'The most accurate account of becoming a parent I have ever read' PHILIPPA PERRY 
 
'Bracingly truthful... very funny' OBSERVER 
 
'It made me laugh, weep, cheer and howl... essential reading for parents and their peers.' NELL FRIZZELL 
 
‘So clever, so funny, so astute, so healing. Becky Barnicoat is a stone cold genius' LUCY JONES

Cry When the Baby Cries

Marc Hamer

Beloved author Marc Hamer writes about finding refuge in his tiny back garden in this highly original story of childhood, old age, and the restorative power of gardens. As a child, he kindled a deep love of the earth by watching plants and insects and exploring the world through a stack of old encyclopaedias he found in the shed. Now an old man, he creates a garden for himself in the neglected plot behind his house. 
 
A little book with a big heart: the insights glow as vivid as a flowerbed. If you want to be inspired, or you've lost your belief in the goodness of this world, this could be for you. 
 
'A sublime meditation on life, love, nature and family, woven with the wisdom gained through a life well lived' Lee Schofield, author of Wild Fell 
 
'A book of great but tender power' Charles Foster, author of Being a Beast 
 
'Patterned with Hamer's gifts for observation, compression, and tone' New Yorker

Spring Rain

A captivating, life-affirming memoir of a life in nature that celebrates finding wonder in our world. 
 
'A wonderful book... It has taught me a lot. I feel great love for it' MAX PORTER 
 
At the age of sixteen, Marc Hamer left home with only a rucksack and started walking. By day, he observed the animals and birds. By night, he slept under hedges, in woodlands and on riverbanks. It was the beginning of a life in nature. 
 
Years later, now working as a gardener and mole-catcher in the Welsh countryside, Marc tells of the experiences that have shaped him and of the wonders that he encounters each day. He considers, too, the fascinating ways of the mole and the myths that surround this curious creature. 
 
This beautiful, meditative book explores what nature can teach us about ourselves and our search for contentment. It is a celebration of living peacefully and finding joy in the world around us. 
 
'It is rare to encounter such respect and understanding of nature' Rosamund Young, author of The Secret Life of Cows 
 
** Longlisted for The Wainwright Prize 2019 ** 
 
(Published in hardback as How to Catch a Mole)

Gretchen McCulloch

THE ACCLAIMED NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. 
 
Have you ever puzzled over how to punctuate a text message? Wondered where memes came from? Fret no more: Because Internet is the perfect book for understanding how the internet is changing the English language, why that's a good thing, and what our online interactions reveal about who we are. 
 
'McCulloch is such a disarming writer - lucid, friendly, unequivocally excited about her subject - that I began to marvel at the flexibility of the online language she describes, with its numerous shades of subtlety.' New York Times

Dora Carrington

Carrington's beguiling letters take us beyond the Bloomsbury group to discuss sexual mores, how to be an artist, and what it is to be truly oneself. 
 
Known only by her surname, Dora Carrington was the star of her year at the Slade School of Fine Art, and was friends with some of the greatest minds of her day, including Virginia Woolf, Rosamund Lehmann and Maynard Keynes. 
 
For over a decade she was the companion of homosexual writer Lytton Strachey, and - stricken without him- killed herself when he died in 1932. Though she never achieved the fame her early career promised, in her determination to live life according to her own nature – especially in relation to her work and her fluid attitude to sex, gender and sexuality – she fought battles that remain familiar and urgent today. 
 
Now, through her passionate, playful and honest letters, we can encounter the maverick artist and compelling personality afresh and in her own words.

Her Art, Her Loves, Her Friendships

Jeanette Winterson

'The perfect winter treat: a beautifully illustrated book of Christmas stories and recipes from the Booker prize longlisted author of Frankissstein 
 
'Packed with charm and beautifully illustrated, it's a book that will solve your gift dilemmas and let you escape the less salubrious aspects of Christmas for a literary wonderland' Stylist 
 
Everybody loves a Christmas story. The tradition of the Twelve Days of Christmas is a tradition of celebration, sharing and giving. And what better way to do that than with a story? 
 
Read these stories by the fire, in the snow, travelling home for the holidays. Give them to friends, wrap them up for someone you love, read them aloud, read them alone, read them together. Enjoy the season of peace and goodwill, mystery, and a little bit of magic. 
 
There are ghosts here and jovial spirits. Chances at love and tricks with time. 
 
There is frost and icicles, mistletoe and sledges. There's a cat and a dog and a solid silver frog. There's a Christmas cracker with a surprising gift inside. 
 
There's a haunted house and a SnowMama. There are Yuletides and holly wreaths. Three Kings. And a merry little Christmas time. 
 
And for the icing on the Christmas cake, there are twelve festive recipes from Yuletides past and present. Red cabbage, gravlax, turkey biryani, sherry trifle, Mrs Winterson's mince pies and more.
