The short life of A.J.A. Symons (1900-41) was described by his biographer as an intricate and largely harmless confidence trick. His many interests included the collection of musical boxes and rare books as well as the study and practice of forgery; they left him time to edit an anthology of Edwardian verse and compose studies of H.M. Stanley and other notable figures. He is remembered for The Quest for Corvo, one of the most remarkable biographies ever written, and for co-founding the Wine and Food Society.

100 Ways You Can Help Save The Planet

Kay Barron

How to Wear Everything is a celebration of clothes; of wearing what works for you, despite what the trends say; of finding that ever-elusive perfect pair of jeans. 
 
What we wear matters. Because looking, and therefore feeling, like yourself is essential. Clothes have the power to make your mood ten times worse or one hundred times better. 
 
Alongside words of wisdom from fashion icons including Sarah Jessica Parker, Law Roach, Monica Bellucci and Sofia Richie Grainge, NET-A-PORTER's Fashion Director Kay Barron shares the expertise she has gleaned from over two decades in the fashion industry, and reveals its best-kept secret: getting dressed is not that hard.

How to Wear Everything

Trevor Dolby

One day a Londoner and his wife went a little crazy and bought a crumbling house in deepest Languedoc. It was love at first sight. 
 
Slowly the family make this house a home, they get to know the locals and these busy English discover slower joys - the scent of thyme and lavender, the warmth of sun on stone walls, nights hung with stars, silence in the hills, the importance of history and memory, the liberation of laughter and the secrets of fig jam. 
 
One Place de l'Eglise is a love letter - to a house, a village, a country - from an outsider who discovers you can never be a stranger when you're made to feel so at home. Old houses never belong to people. People belong to them.

One Place de l’Eglise

Rooted in ancient Eastern philosophies, every part of a bonsai tree is symbolic of our life and experiences. A bonsai shedding leaves is symbolic of letting go our material possessions; tending to the roots helps support and nourish the tree, much the same as our own beliefs and values, and many more aspects of bonsai offer serene life lessons to help us enrich and enjoy our lives. 
 
The book will also delve into the philosophy and lessons to be learnt from tending to bonsai, contain a 'potted' history of the fascinating ancient culture and offer a comprehensive guide to cultivating bonsai.

"I am so greedily impatient for this book. I want to read it. I want to cook from it." 
Nigella Lawson 
 
In Notes from a Small Kitchen Island, food writer Debora Robertson presents a charming miscellany of recipes that celebrate the joys of home and the memories we make in it, collected over the years as she cooked her way through the various kitchens that came in and out of her life. 
 
From nostalgic recipes remembered from childhood, to accidentally Turkish suppers created with ingredients from her local Hackney high street; from feasts improvised in her French holiday cottage to food cooked for the best of friends, Debora's recipes encapsulate the comforts and adventures to be found in the everyday. You'll also learn how to throw a party without losing your mind and what food writers really eat for lunch (mostly toast!). 
 
 A chronicle of domestic life, this book comprises decades of fieldwork in the author's natural territory: her kitchen.
