From the Sunday Times number one bestselling author of Summer Secrets comes a novel about finding a home - and family - where
you least expect them.
Description
Eight years ago, Emma Montague left behind the strict confines of her upper-crust English life - and rather dull boyfriend - and moved to
New York City, where she immediately found success in the world of finance. But her soulless, cut-throat, all-consuming job has only led
to another life she didn't want.

Answering an online ad, Emma finds a tiny beach cottage to rent in the small town of Westport, Connecticut. It needs work - lots of
work. But it's the perfect project to satisfy Emma's passion for interior design and gardening, if her new landlord, Dominic, is agreeable
to the small changes she yearns to make.
To Emma, Dominic is also something of a fixer-upper. A local handyman with a six-year-old son, he's a world away from the men she
should be interested in, but he's comfortable in his own skin, confident, quiet and kind. Slowly, over a shared garden, time spent with his
son and late-night conversations, Emma finds herself falling for Dominic.
From friends to lovers happens as naturally as the changing seasons. But laying down roots doesn't come easily when two lives as
different as theirs merge into one. And Emma will realise that the seeds of happiness must be nurtured and cherished to grow into
something strong enough to shelter all their hopes and dreams...

"No one can deny James's success as a crime novelist... The Grace stories almost always go to the top of the bestseller lists, not
least because they are supremely well-told. James writes meticulously researched police procedurals, so informed that you can
smell the canteen coffee... enthralling." Daily Mail
"Peter James has penetrated the inner workings of police procedures, and the inner thoughts and attitudes of real detectives, as no
English crime writer before him. His hero, Roy Grace, may not be the most lively cop, nor the most damaged by drink, weight or
misery, but he's one of the most believable." The Times

"Almost unbearably tense, chilling and addictive, You Will Know Me deftly transports the reader to the hyper-competitive arena of
gymnastics where the dreams and aspirations of not just families but entire communities rest on the slender shoulders of one
teenage girl. Exceptional." Paula Hawkins, bestselling author of The Girl on the Train
"Like stepping into a world with slightly too little oxygen. Dark and compelling, this is a 2 a.m. novel." Lucie Whitehouse, author of
Before We Met
"That rarefied sweet spot between unnerving psychological suspense and a family drama with heart, You Will Know Me induces
equal parts dread and unease, empathy and warmth. The pages couldn't turn fast enough as I dug deeper into the peculiar and
fascinating Knox-family world, trying to figure out who was lying, who was telling the truth, and who was dangerous. Luscious
writing, a timely and unique premise, and an ending that will haunt you all summer long." Jessica Knoll, author of Luckiest Girl

The Good Lieutenant
Whitney Terrell
Keynote
A gripping, insightful, necessary novel about a war that is proving to be the defining tragedy of our time.
Description
The Good Lieutenant literally starts with a bang as an operation led by Lieutenant Emma Fowler of the Twenty-seventh Infantry
Battalion goes spectacularly wrong. Men are dead - one, a young Iraqi, by her hand. Others were soldiers in her platoon. And the signals
officer, Dixon Pulowski. Pulowski is another story entirely - Fowler and Pulowski had been lovers since they met at Fort Riley in Kansas.
From this conflagration, The Good Lieutenant unspools backward in time as Fowler and her platoon are guided into disaster by
suspicious informants and questionable intelligence, their very mission the result of a previous snafu in which a soldier had been
kidnapped by insurgents. And then even further back, before things began to go so wrong, we see the backstory unfold from points of
view that usually are not shown in war coverage - a female frontline officer, for one, but also jaded career soldiers and Iraqis both
innocent and not so innocent. Ultimately, as all these stories unravel, what is revealed is what happens when good intentions destroy,
experience distorts, and survival becomes everything.
The Good Lieutenant is a brilliantly told and expertly captured novel by a terrific writer at the top of his form.

"Whitney Terrell's The Good Lieutenant is a terrific exploration of courage, leadership, and loss, as experienced by American
soldiers in Iraq. Terrell captures the humanity and the absurdity of the conflict in a way that feels both specific to the Iraq conflict
and also unnervingly timeless. A stunning and heartbreaking testament to Terrell's genius and the nature of modern war." - Gillian
Flynn
"The Good Lieutenant is a stirring performance grounded in the hard realities of combat. The human beauty here is of the brutal
variety-complex, dark, and impossible to forget. Lieutenant Emma Fowler is our guide into a contemporary heart of darkness. This
novel should be read by all." - Anthony Swofford, author of Jarhead
"The Good Lieutenant has the grand complexity of war embedded in its bones. It makes ingenious, compelling art out of those
complexities. For that reason alone, its considerable graces are saving ones." - Richard Ford

herself over until she has licked her wounds and figured out her next move as a composer in New York. But, as it turns out, Charlotte is
naturally good with children and becomes as deeply fond of the two little boys as they are of her. When an unthinkable tragedy leaves
the McLeans bereft, Charlotte is not the only one who realizes that she's the key to holding little George and Matty's world together.
Suddenly, in addition to life's usual puzzles, such as sorting out which suitor is her best match, she finds herself with an impossible
choice between her life-long dreams and the torn-apart family she's come to love. By turns hilarious, sexy, and wise, Caroline Angell's
remarkable and generous debut is the story of a young woman's discovery of the things that matter most.

The Last Days of New Paris
China Mieville
Keynote
A thriller of war that never was - of survival in an impossible city - of surreal cataclysm. In The Last Days of New Paris, China Miéville
entwines true historical events and people with his daring, uniquely imaginative brand of fiction, reconfiguring history and art into
something new.
Description
"Beauty will be convulsive. . . ."
1941. In the chaos of wartime Marseille, American engineer - and occult disciple - Jack Parsons stumbles onto a clandestine anti-Nazi
group, including Surrealist theorist André Breton. In the strange games of the dissident diplomats, exiled revolutionaries, and avantgarde artists, Parsons finds and channels hope. But what he unwittingly unleashes is the power of dreams and nightmares, changing the
war and the world forever.
1950. A lone Surrealist fighter, Thibaut, walks a new, hallucinogenic Paris, where Nazis and the Resistance are trapped in unending
conflict, and the streets are stalked by living images and texts-and by the forces of Hell. To escape the city, he must join forces with
Sam, an American photographer intent on recording the ruins, and make common cause with a powerful, enigmatic figure of chance and
rebellion: the exquisite corpse.
But Sam is being hunted. And new secrets will emerge that will test all their loyalties - to each other, to Paris old and new, and to reality
itself.

Before the man he's never met smiles down at him and says, 'Welcome back, my friend.'
In this world he's woken up to, Jason's life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an
ordinary college physics professor, but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible.
Is it this world or the other that's the dream? And even if the home he remembers is real, how can Jason possibly make it back to the
family he loves? The answers lie in a journey more wondrous and horrifying than anything he could've imagined - one that will force him
to confront the darkest parts of himself even as he battles a terrifying, seemingly unbeatable foe.
From the author of the bestselling Wayward Pines trilogy, Dark Matter is a brilliantly plotted tale that is at once sweeping and
intimate, mind-bendingly strange and profoundly human - a relentlessly surprising thriller about choices, paths not taken, and how far
we'll go to claim the lives we dream of.

In this vivid and compelling novel, Tim Murphy follows a diverse set of characters whose fates intertwine in an iconic building in
Manhattan's East Village, the Christodora. Moving kaleidoscopically from the Tompkins Square Riots and attempts by activists to
galvanize a response to the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s, to future New York City of the 2020s where subzero winters are a thing of the
past, Christodora recounts the heartbreak wrought by AIDS, illuminates the allure and destructive power of hard drugs, and brings to
life the ever-changing city itself.
On Avenue B in the heart of the Lower East Side, the Christodora is home to Milly and Jared, a privileged young couple with artistic
ambitions. Their neighbor, Hector, a Puerto Rican gay man who was at one point celebrated for his work as an AIDS activist but has now
become a lonely addict, becomes connected to Milly and Jared's lives in ways none of them can anticipate. Meanwhile, Milly and Jared's
adopted son Mateo grows to see the opportunity for both self-realization and oblivion that New York offers. As the junkies and protestors
of the 1980s give way to the hipsters of the 2000s and they, in turn, to the wealthy residents of the crowded, glass-towered city of the
2020s, enormous changes rock the personal lives of Milly and Jared and the constellation of people around them, even as ghosts of the
past cast a shadow on their future.

Usman Kassar is comfortable in his older brother's shadow, for now. Staying off the radars of the big players lets him plan big scores
with little danger of detection. But dangerous jobs will get you noticed, whether you want them to or not.
Martin Sivok is a gunman without a target. An outsider in a new city who doesn't know how to make a fresh start. But when you
desperately need doors to start opening, someone like Usman might just persuade you to pull at the wrong handle - like the one that

back.
Any job can have brutal consequences when it threatens the reputation of Nate Colgan. Nate can't help being frightening; a man with
darkness inside him. As the reluctant 'security consultant' for a fracturing criminal organisation, he knows that unless he recovers the
stolen money quickly, much more than his livelihood will be on the line. But if you've been forced into a job that you know could be your

When a gentleman arrives at Montalbano's station to report an armed robbery on his wife that ended with a kiss, the inspector's
suspicions are aroused. As he delves deeper into the case, Montalbano finds that none of the witnesses' stories are adding up, and he
can't help but feel that they're not meant to. When a body turns up showing all the signs of a mafia hit, the inspector knows he must
excavate the truth from what he is being led to believe. Meanwhile there's a case that keeps winding its way back to Montalbano's office.
A locked door has suddenly appeared on a farmer's disused shed, and then, just as quickly, the door disappears. The anti-terrorist police
soon intervene, but why are they so keen to keep this away from the inspector? And why does he sense that this case is connected to
him somehow? With deceit at every turn and a distraction of the heart taking over his head, Inspector Montalbano must focus if he is
ever going to solve this mystery.

As a child, Alberto lost his birthday in the Spanish civil war. Now an old man living a simple life, he rarely thinks about his disappeared
past.
But when his grandson discovers his Apu has never had a birthday party, never blown out candles on a birthday cake, and never
received a single card or present, he's determined to do something about it.
As the two set off to find Alberto's birthday, they have no idea it will be a journey that takes them through Spain's troubled past, to
places - and people - that Alberto once knew.
But in a country that has vowed to move forward, looking back can be difficult. Will they be able to find the memories they're searching
for?

Raised in a poor yet genteel household, Rachel Woodley is working in France as a governess when she receives news that her mother
has died, suddenly. Grief-stricken, she returns to the small town in England where she was raised to clear out the cottage... and finds a
cutting from a London society magazine, with a photograph of her supposedly deceased father dated all of three months before. He's an
earl, respected and influential, and he is standing with another daughter - his legitimate daughter. Which makes Rachel... not legitimate.
Everything she thought she knew about herself and her past - even her very name - is a lie.
Still reeling from the death of her mother, and furious at this betrayal, Rachel sets herself up in London under a new identity. There she
insinuates herself into the party-going crowd of Bright Young Things, with a steely determination to unveil her father's perfidy and bring
his -and her half-sister's - charmed world crashing down. Very soon, however, Rachel faces two unexpected snags; she finds that she
genuinely likes her half-sister, Olivia, whose situation isn't as simple it appears; and that she might just be falling for her sister's fiancé..

The sequel to the acclaimed The Just City and The Philosopher Kings, Jo Walton's tales of gods, humans, and what they have to
learn from one another.
Description
More than sixty-five years ago, Pallas Athena founded the Just City on an island in the eastern Mediterranean, placing it centuries before
the Trojan War, populating it with teachers and children from throughout human history, and committing it to building a society based on
the principles of Plato's Republic. Among the City's children was Pytheas, secretly the god Apollo in human form.

Sixty years ago, the Just City schismed into five cities, each devoted to a different version of the original vision.
Forty years ago, the five cities managed to bring their squabbles to a close. But in consequence of their struggle, their existence finally
came to the attention of Zeus, who can't allow them to remain in deep antiquity, changing the course of human history. Convinced by
Apollo to spare the Cities, Zeus instead moved everything on the island to the planet Plato, circling its own distant sun.
Now, more than a generation has passed. The Cities are flourishing on Plato, and even trading with multiple alien species. Then, on the
same day, two things happen. Pytheas dies as a human, returning immediately as Apollo in his full glory. And there's suddenly a human
ship in orbit around Plato--a ship from Earth.

Players
Don DeLillo
Keynote
"A witty, harrowing and superbly controlled novel about modern alienation and violence" - Washington Post
Description
In this remarkable novel of menace and mystery, Pammy and Lyle Wynant are an attractive, modern couple who seem to have it all. Yet
behind their 'ideal' life is a lingering boredom and quiet desperation: their talk is mostly chatter, their sex life more a matter of obligatory
'satisfaction' than pleasure. And still they remain untouched, 'players' indifferent to the violence that surrounds them, and that they have
helped to create.
Originally published in 1977, Players is a fast-moving yet starkly drawn socially critical drama that demonstrates the razor-sharp prose
and thematic density for which DeLillo is renowned today.

on the same night as Professor Harvatis's discovery, is perplexing the authorities. Each atrocity is accompanied by a dire quotation from
the ancient sources, exposing an ingeniously cruel mind.

The Eat Real Food Cookbook
David Gillespie
Description
For nearly ten years, David Gillespie has warned us of the dangers of sugar, and Australia has listened. More recently he has alerted us
to the other toxin in our food supply: seed oil. Most processed food - from French fries to yoghurt to spreadable butter - contains one or
both of these ingredients, so the question is: how do we eat real food?
Expanding on his 2015 bestseller Eat Real Food, David shows us how to:

Based on his 2015 bestseller Eat Real Food, this is David's first cookbook full of real-food recipes that his family live on and enjoy.
David Gillespie's six health books, including the Sweet Poison books, have together sold 200,000 copies through Bookscan.
In the Australian media, David is regarded as one of the most reliable, authentic voices on weight and wellness issues; he has
appeared on every major current affairs show, speaks regularly on commercial and ABC radio around the country; and has been
featured in all the major newspapers, for which he is also a regular op ed contributor. He also has a large social media following.
David has a compelling story. He lost 40 kg by following his own advice, and, what's more, has kept the weight off; this is
remarkable when you consider that only 4% of the population maintains weight loss over a two-year period.
David is one of the very few health writers of recent times to base ALL of his content on evidence-based scientific research. He cuts
through the conflicting messages about so-called health food debunking paleo, low-carb, low-GI, protein shakes and the superfood
revolution. David says avoid two key ingredients that are doing great damage to our health: sugar and seed oil. Everyone knows
about the first but is in the dark about the second. Get set for seed oil to take over sugar as the most talked about ingredient in our
food supply.
This is not a diet, it is an accessible, life-long, family-friendly approach to eating; you don't need specialist products, you don't
specialist food knowledge; all you need is the book!

In this gripping book he reveals what it is like to fight alongside the Kurds as well as British and American ex-military. He has cleared the
enemy from occupied villages, come under mortar and small-arms fire, and witnessed the horrific atrocities committed by ISIS. He also
describes how WiFi on the front line allows today's soldiers to communicate, how they always find time for selfies, even when under
attack, and how the Kurds are so used to this way of life they stop mid-firefight to have a cup of chai and play Candy Crush while
manning the mortars. As cultures clash, and the bullets start flying, Tim shares his adventures with honesty and black humour.
Author Biography
Tim Locks is a former bouncer and prison guard. In February 2015, he sold his home in West London, shut down his construction
business and flew to Iraq to join a Kurdish militia group in the fight against Islamic State. He is believed to be the first British civilian
without a military background to head out to the front line.

Author Biography
Ron Iddles grew up on a dairy farm south of Echuca. Inspired by TV cop shows Homicide and Division 4, he joined the police cadets in
1972. His first years in uniform were on general duties on the mean streets of Collingwood, where he became known as the best thiefcatcher on the force (often arresting burglars when off-duty). Fearless, tireless and incorruptible, Iddles rose fast through the ranks and
became a homicide detective in 1980, often working 50 hours straight to crack cases. After 17 years on the job, Iddles quit and drove
trucks to free up his mind, only to be wooed back in 1994. Remarkably, he started afresh as a constable. But Ron's gifts for police work
won through and he rose fast again and was soon working the big cases - the Melbourne Gangland Wars, the murder of Jill Meagher and
more.

Declared by Underbelly author John Silvester to be 'one of the most dangerous men in Australia', bank-robber, jail-breaker and
incorrigible livewire Christopher 'Badness' Binse is now serving a crushing eighteen years in isolation. The once cocky outlaw who reaped
hundreds of thousands of dollars in daring heists, who broke out of two prisons in six weeks, who romanced the daughter of a Great
Bookie Robber and who, as the most wanted man in Australia, was photographed in a grinning selfie with an unwitting Sir Joh BjelkePetersen, now craves death. Should Binse survive his sentence, he will emerge as a senior citizen and long-estranged father who has
spent almost 45 years in prison. The ever-expanding realisation that this fleeting life has been a monstrous failure has overwhelmed
Binse, a charming rogue and Australian folk hero akin to Ned Kelly or Billy the Kid.
The only possible sliver of redemption he sees lies in opening his soul and his story to author Matthew Thompson in the hope that
another wild child out there, another boy or girl on the edge, will learn from his tragedy and pull back in time. This is the jaw-dropping,
funny yet devastating inside-story of how Binse pulled off escapes, the manic reality of life as a desperado, and the heart-rending family
history without which the tale makes little sense.

Mr Smiley
Howard Marks
Keynote
The last pill and testament from Britain's most famous and well-loved drug smuggler, Howard Marks.
Description
Howard Marks is the most famous drug smuggler of his age, and a hero to a generation. On his release from one of America's toughest
prisons, Howard made a promise to himself to go straight. No more drugs, no more smuggling, no more fake passports. He would retire
to a quiet life with his family in the Balearic Islands of Spain. It didn't quite work out that way.

This was the mid-nineties, the height of the ecstasy and clubbing boom, and Ibiza was at the very centre of the vortex for the 'E
generation'. Pills had taken the place of marijuana, Paul Oakenfold had replaced The Rolling Stones as the music of the masses, but
some people are just born for life on the other side of the law.
It wasn't long before Howard found himself trying pure ecstasy and rubbing shoulders with some of the king-pins of the pill trade. These
included some of Britain's most notorious gangsters, who were laundering millions of pounds of gold stolen from the legendary Brink'sMat bullion raid. As Britons descended on Ibiza ahead of one of the greatest summers of the nineties, Howard was preparing for his most
outrageous operation yet.
Incredibly funny, moving and scabrous, Howard Marks' Mr Smiley follows a journey to the heartland of the clubbing and British crime
scene. It is also a fitting last word from one of Britain's best loved bad boys.
Author Biography
Howard Marks is Britain's most famous drug smuggler, having served seven years in an US penitentiary before going on to become the
bestselling author of Mr Nice. A former Oxford physics graduate, he was released from prison in 1995. He had previously been
connected with groups as diverse as the CIA, IRA, M16 and the Mafia. On release from prison he moved to Ibiza at the height of the
clubbing scene. In 2014 he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Mr Smiley is his last pill and testament.

In 1905, Albert Einstein produced five historic papers that shattered many cherished scientific beliefs. One of those papers introduced
the theory of special relativity and his legendary equation, E=mc2. Generations have grown up knowing that equation changed the shape
of our world, but without understanding what it really means and why it is so significant.
In this fascinating biography David Bodanis tells the story of one of the greatest scientific discoveries in history. He looks at the elements
'e', 'm' and 'c'; and honours the scientists whose landmark discoveries paved the way for Einstein. He plots the course of the equation
through the twentieth century, showing how our lives have been revolutionized by its applications; and looks far ahead to the future.
But as with any biography, it is the human stories that really ignite the subject - stories of love, courage and tragedy, of near misses,
disappointments and disasters that, brought together by Bodanis in this remarkable book, turn Einstein's seemingly impenetrable theory
into a dramatic and accessible human achievement.

In the 1970s, Diana Nyad was widely regarded as the greatest long-distance swimmer in the world and set many world records, such as
circling Manhattan Island and crossing the 102.5 miles between the Bahamas and Florida. But one record continually eluded her:
becoming the first woman to swim between Cuba and the Florida Keys without a shark cage. Finally, in September 2013, after four failed
attempts and at the age of sixty-four, Diana completed the crossing after two days and two nights of continuous swimming - 53
consecutive hours, 110 miles.
Millions of people watched her and cried and cheered and were dazzled and amazed by her tenacity and courage. This memoir is a
dramatic, page-turning account of the epic endurance quest that led to that moment, and is also a galvanizing call to live life boldly, inthe-moment, fearlessly, passionately, with no regrets.
What makes this book special is that it not only recounts an astonishing and hard won triumph, though it does tell the story of an
extraordinary and improbable victory. What makes this book, and Nyad herself, so incredible is the fact of her monumental courage in
the face of failure. Nyad failed, and failed, and failed, and failed, but never gave up, and this memoir shows her unwavering belief in the
face of overwhelming odds. It is about perseverance, tenacity and commitment on an epic scale.

"Diana Nyad is a force of personality that anyone who meets her never forgets. This drive and dynamism is well captured in the
title of her moving memoir Find a Way. She has - and her book shows us how we all can."
Wall Street Journal
"What makes Nyad's story so remarkable, beyond the harrowing trials she faced at sea - unpredictable currents and weather,
deadly sea animals - is the strength of a resolve that would not admit defeat and knew no boundaries. "Whatever your Other Shore
is," she writes, "whatever you must do... you will find a way." Inspiring reading for anyone who has ever dared to dream the
impossible." Kirkus
"Her story reads like a gripping thriller; She braved storms, stinging jellyfish, sharks and hallucinations before staggering onto the
beach on September 2, 2013." People Magazine
In the children's novel The Thing About Jellyfish, Diana Nyad was one of Suzy's heroes mentioned in the book.
Author Biography
Back in the 1970s, Diana Nyad was the greatest long-distance swimmer in the world. After setting a world record circling Manhattan,

In The Five STEPS to a Winning Mindset Professor Damian Hughes, the acclaimed author of Liquid Thinking and How to Think
Like Sir Alex Ferguson, draws on his lifetime's experience as a sports psychologist to reveals the best ways to create a winning
mindset in both personal and professional life.
Having worked with some of the top teams in the UK, and watched some of the best coaches in the country at work, Hughes distils the
five keys principles that separate the best coaches and teams from the rest: Simplicity; Tripwires; Emotions; Practical; Stories: STEPS.
The role of a sports team leader is fascinating, complex and tough. Fantasy football leagues may convince us that success is all about
buying players, and selecting a team. In reality, it is about creating winning environments, recruiting, developing and nurturing talent,
effectively communicating a shared vision with a diverse collection of individuals, delivering on enormous expectations from a range of
stakeholders, overcoming significant challenges, handling pressure and staying focused throughout - a set of challenges familiar to
leaders in all sectors.

A riveting account of how the Cold War came to an end by one of our leading historians.
Description
The Cold War had seemed like a permanent fixture in global politics, and until its denouement, no Western or Soviet politician foresaw
that the stand-off between the two superpowers - after decades of struggle over every aspect of security, politics, economics and ideas would end in their lifetimes. Even after March 1985 when Mikhail Gorbachëv became the leader of the Soviet Union it was not
preordained that global nuclear Armageddon could or would be averted peaceably.

But just four years later, the Berlin Wall was dismantled and perestroika spread throughout the former Soviet bloc. It was a sea change
in world history, which resulted in the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
Drawing on pioneering archival research, Robert Service's gripping new investigation of the final years of the Cold War pinpoints the
astonishing relationships among President Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachëv, Secretary of State George Shultz and the USSR's last
Foreign Affairs Minister, Eduard Shevardnadze, who found a way to cooperate during times of extraordinary change around the world.
The story is of American pressure and Soviet long-term decline and over-stretch. The End of the Cold War shows how that small,
skillful group of statesmen were determined to end the Cold War on their watch. In the process, they irreversibly transformed the global
geopolitical landscape.

At the age of fifty-four Christopher Milne recalled his early childhood, remembering 'the enchanted places' where he used to play in
Sussex. The Hundred Acre Wood, Galleon's Lap and Poohsticks Bridge existed not only in the stories and poems but were part of the real
world surrounding the Milne home at Cotchford Farm.
With deftness and artistry Milne draws a memorable portrait of his father, and an evocative reconstruction of a happy childhood in
London and Sussex. It is a story told with humour and modesty.
Author Biography
Christopher Robin Milne was the son of author A.A. (Alan Alexander) Milne and Dorothy de Selincourt. As a young child, he was the basis
of the character Christopher Robin in his father's Winnie-the-Pooh stories and in two books of poems.
Christopher Milne was a shy boy and did not like the attention that he received from the public because of his father's success with the
Pooh books. In 1974, Milne decided to publish the first of three autobiographical books. The Enchanted Places gave an account of his
childhood and of the problems that he had encountered because of the Pooh books.

One of the most important life events is falling in love, yet we never learn about it in school. Societies and religions force us into models
and thought-forms that are often in opposition to an organic model of love, which is instead institutionalized by marriage, religious
affiliations, and nationalism. This results in love that is, for most people, a painful challenge in one form or another throughout life. In
these modern days, where the focus shifts more and more to realizing one's individual potential, Osho helps us to direct our search for
love by widening our view - showing us that love has many manifestations and is not limited to the 'other'. One manifestation of love is
meditation, a life-changing experience that allows the flowering of real love within oneself and toward others.
The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on the most important questions in the life of the individual. Each volume contains timeless yet
contemporary investigations and discussions into questions vital to our personal search for meaning and purpose. The Osho Life
Essentials series focuses on questions specific to our inner life and quality of existence; for example, is it possible to have an authentic
spirituality without a belief in God? What is meditation and how does it work? What can I do as an individual to make the world a better
place?
Author Biography
OSHO is one of the most provocative and inspiring spiritual teachers of the twentieth century. He is known for his revolutionary
contributions to the science of inner transformation, and the influence of his teachings continues to grow, reaching seekers of all ages in
virtually every country in the world.

In Mindfulness in the Modern World, Osho helps us explore both the inner and the outer obstacles that prevent us from bringing
more awareness to all our daily activities. He emphasizes that while techniques can be useful in pointing the way, in themselves they are
not meditation. Rather, meditation - or mindfulness - is ultimately a state of being in which we are capable of both action and stillness,
work and play, and able to be fully present to each moment of life as it comes. Osho's insights into the nature of the modern mind, with
its tendency to judge and compare, provides a helpful entry point for longtime meditators as well as beginners. Mindfulness in the
Modern World covers a wide range of topics, including five experiential techniques that will help you bring awareness to your everyday

Fear
Osho
Description
In Fear: Understanding and Accepting the Insecurities of Life, Osho takes the reader step by step over the range of what makes
human beings afraid - from the reflexive "fight or flight" response to physical danger to the rational and irrational fears of the mind and
its psychology. Only by bringing the light of understanding into fear's dark corners, he says, airing out closets and opening windows, and
looking under the bed to see if a monster is really living there, can we begin to venture outside the boundaries of our comfort zone and
learn to live with, and even enjoy, the fundamental insecurity of being alive.
Fear ends with a series of meditation experiments designed to help readers experience a new relationship with fear and to begin to see
fears not as stumbling blocks, but as stepping stones to greater self-awareness and trust.

Moral, Immoral, Amoral
Osho
Description
The seventh book in the Osho Life Essentials series.
The old, simplistic categorization of human behaviors into moral categories of "right and wrong" as regulated by the Ten Commandments
or other rules of "good and bad" behavior strike many people today as either hopelessly outdated or completely irrelevant. In a global
world, we are in search of universal values - values based on a contemporary understanding that unifies us as human beings beyond the
divisions of religions, nations, and race.

In this volume, Osho speaks directly to this contemporary search as he introduces us to a new and higher level in our quest for values
that make sense in the world we live in - a level that goes far beyond moral codes of behavior. His vision is of a transformed human
being who is nothing less than the next step in evolution. In Osho's vision the validation of right and wrong does not come from the
outside through laws and commandments, but through an inner connectivity and oneness with existence.

Learning to Silence the Mind
Osho
Description
The mind, says Osho, has the potential to be enormously creative in dealing with the challenges of everyday life, and the problems of the
world in which we live. The difficulty, however, is that instead of using the mind as a helpful servant we have largely allowed it to
become the master of our lives. Its ambitions, belief systems, and interpretations rule our days and our nights - bringing us into conflict
with minds that are different from ours, keeping us awake at night rehashing those conflicts or planning the conflicts of tomorrow, and
disturbing our sleep and our dreams. If only there was a way to switch it off and give it a rest! Finding the switch that can silence the
mind - not by force or performing some exotic ritual, but through understanding, watchfulness, and a healthy sense of humor - is
meditation. A sharper, more relaxed and creative mind - one that can function at the peak of its unique intelligence - is the potential.
The book will include a link to tutorials on OSHO Nadabrahma Meditation.

Belief, Doubt and Fanaticism
Osho
Description
Publication date
In Belief, Doubt, and Fanaticism, Osho brings his unique and often surprising perspective to the religious, political, social and
economic forces that drive people into opposing camps, fanatical groups, and belief systems that depend on seeing every "other" as the
"enemy". As always, the focus is first and foremost on the individual psyche and consciousness, to identify the root causes and hidden
demons of our human need to belong and have something to "believe in".
The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on the most important questions in the life of the individual. Each volume contains timeless and
always-contemporary investigations and discussions into questions vital to our personal search for meaning and purpose. The Osho Life
Essentials series focuses on questions specific to our inner life and quality of existence, for example: Is it possible to have an authentic
spirituality without a belief in God? What is meditation and how does it work? What can I do as an individual to make the world a better
place?

Eye of the Sixties
Judith E Stein
Keynote
The art dealer and tastemaker of abstract expressionism, pop art, and minimalism who transformed modern art.
Description
A man with a preternatural ability to find emerging artists, Richard Bellamy was one of the first advocates of pop art, minimalism, and
conceptual art. The founder and director of the fabled Green Gallery on Fifty-Seventh Street, the witty, poetry-loving art lover became a
legend of the avant-garde, showing the work of artists such as Mark di Suvero, Claes Oldenburg, James Rosenquist, Donald Judd, and
others.

Born to an American father and a Chinese mother in a Cincinnati suburb, Bellamy moved to New York and made a life for himself
between the Beat orbits of Provincetown and white-glove events such as the Guggenheim's opening gala. He partied with Norman Mailer,
was friends with Diane Arbus and Yoko Ono, and frequently hosted or performed in Allan Kaprow's happenings. Always more concerned
with art than with making a profit, Bellamy withdrew when the market mushroomed around him, letting his contemporaries and friends,
such as Leo Castelli and Sidney Janis, capitalize on the stars he first discovered. Bellamy's life story is a fascinating window into the
transformation of art in the late twentieth century.

Eunsun Kim was born in North Korea, one of the most secretive and oppressive countries in the modern world. As a child Eunsun loved
her country... despite her school field trips to public executions, daily self-criticism sessions, and the increasing gnaw of hunger as the
country-wide famine escalated.
By the time she was eleven years old, Eunsun's father and grandparents had died of starvation, and Eunsun was in danger of the same.
Finally, her mother decided to escape North Korea with Eunsun and her sister, not knowing that they were embarking on a journey that
would take them nine long years to complete. Before finally reaching South Korea and freedom, Eunsun and her family would live
homeless, fall into the hands of Chinese human traffickers, survive a North Korean labor camp, and cross the deserts of Mongolia on
foot.
Now, Eunsun is sharing her remarkable story to give voice to the tens of millions of North Koreans still suffering in silence. Told with
grace and courage, her memoir is a riveting exposé of North Korea's totalitarian regime and, ultimately, a testament to the strength and
resilience of the human spirit.
Author Biography
Eunsun Kim grew up in North Korea. At age 11, she fled the country and began the harrowing 9-year journey that led her to freedom.
Today, she lives with her husband in South Korea, where she's pursuing her master's degree and working for an NGO promoting human
rights in North Korea.
Sebastien Falletti has been the Korea correspondent for the French newspaper Le Figaro since 2009. He covers political and business
news across Asia. Born in Paris, Sébastien is now based in Seoul and Shanghai.

The year was 1981. Just two months into his presidency, Ronald Reagan was shot after leaving a speaking engagement in Washington,
D. C. The quick action of the Secret Service and medical professionals saved the president's life. Mere days after his near-death

Killing Reagan, with characteristically gripping storytelling, this story explores the events of the day Reagan was shot. From the scene of
the shooting and the dramatic action of the Secret Service, to the FBI's interrogation of the shooter, the life-saving measures of the
medical professionals and the president's extraordinary recovery, this is a page-turning account of an attempted assassination and its
aftermath.

Born into a sports-mad family (his grandfather Bill played two games for North Melbourne in 1948), Brent was always told he was too
small to make the big time. This drove the pocket rocket to ever-greater heights until the schoolboy star for Preston and the Northern
Knights was drafted by the Kangaroos in 1995.
The knockers were silenced for good in 1999 when Harvey won a premiership with NMFC, following an EJ Whitten Medal for Victoria as
best afield in that year's State of Origin series. Harvey is the only remaining player from that side still playing today. In 2016, he enters
his 21st and possibly final season with 410+ games and 485 goals to his name and Michael Tuck's all-time record of 426 games well

It had been a big year for Taggie Paganuzzi. From learning that she was actually the Queen-to-be of a magical realm, to learning to use
magic, to fighting for her life against the King of Night, there had been a lot of 'firsts'. And when someone tried to assassinate her as she
was cycling home from the local pool in Stamford, England. Well, that was a first too.
It turns out that someone has been killing royal heirs throughout the magical kingdoms, and every leader from every realm believes the
King of Night's army, the Karraks, are responsible. War seems inevitable . . . and yet Taggie has just discovered two very interesting
facts. Firstly, that the Karraks come from a cold, dark universe, and they cannot abide warmth and light. And secondly, that there was
once a gate to this universe . . . now lost in the mists of time.
But where do you begin to look for a gate which was deliberately hidden centuries ago? To find out, Taggie must rescue the one Karrak
Lord who also hopes for peace. Who happens to be imprisoned in an impenetrable fortress . . .

But everything changes when Brine and Peter accidentally break the magician's starshell and need to flee the island. Lost at sea, they
blunder into the path of the legendary pirate ship the Onion. Before you can say 'pieces of eight,' they're up to their necks in the pirates'
quest to find Magical North, a place so shrouded in secrets and myth that most people don't even think it exists.
If Brine is lucky, she may find out who her parents are and why they sent her out to sea. And if she's unlucky, everyone on the ship will
be eaten by sea monsters.
It really could go either way.
Author Biography
Claire Fayers was born and brought up in South Wales, an area of the country sadly deficient in dragons. Having studied English at
Canterbury University, she built a successful career writing short stories for women's magazines until the lure of magic became too much
and she wrote The Voyage to the Magical North. When she's not writing, you'll find her at her allotment. She has produced some
magnificent onions but her dream of growing a straight carrot still eludes her.

Author Biography
Tom Percival grew up in a remote and beautiful part of South Shropshire. On reflection this seemed rather more remote than beautiful,
owing to the fact that he lived in a small caravan without electricity, mains water or any sensible form of heating. He thinks that he's
probably one of the few people in his peer group to have learned to read by gas lamp.
Having established a career as a picture-book author and illustrator, Little Legends is Tom Percival's first foray into the world of writing
chapter books for young readers.
The idea for Little Legends was developed by Tom Percival and Made in Me, a digital creative studio exploring new ways for technology
and storytelling to inspire the next generation.

talking hamster, and his fabulous game show, Answer that Question.

ready for the contest if Ms. Moreno keeps taking naps instead of teaching? More important, how can Einstein help the class prepare for
the contest when the only kid who can hear him is Ned?

In this stunning conclusion to a unique alt-history action-adventure duology, dinosaurs from a forbidden world have been turned into
unstoppable weapons by one of the most ferocious military leaders of all time. In the wake of Napoléon's crushing victory at Waterloo,
the vicious French general Marc Thibault and his brigade of giant carnivorous battlesaurs have struck terror across Europe. England
stands alone, but an invasion is looming. Its only hope is a secret attack led by a magician's son named Willem deep inside enemy
territory, to the very heart of Napoléon's terrifying new army. Deception and betrayal threaten the mission from its outset, but the
courage and perseverance of Willem the "saur killer" and his friends lead to a clash of titanic proportions.

This riveting alt history introduces dinosaurs into a pivotal moment in human history. Now the 1815 Battle of Waterloo is something
other than a crushing defeat for the French emperor Napoléon Bonaparte, when he unleashes a terrible secret weapon--giant carnivorous
survivors from pre-history--on his unsuspecting adversaries. In this world, smaller "saurs" are an everyday danger in the forests of
Europe, and the Americas are a forbidden zone roamed by the largest and most deadly animals ever to walk the earth. But in his quest
for power, Napoléon has found a way to turn these dinosaurs into nineteenth-century weapons of mass destruction. Only Willem, the
teenage son of a court magician who lives near the battlefield, has the power to ruin the tyrant's plans. And Napoléon will stop at
nothing to find him.

with a new basketball coach: Mr. Acevedo! Now Rip is knocked completely out of his comfort zone, and for Red, who has ASD, the

teen dramedy about medical school vs video games!

But four adorable, bossy, and occasionally terrifying angels arrive just in time to lead Dennis back onto the straight and narrow: the path
to gastroenterology. It's all part of the plan, they tell him. But is it? This powerful piece of magical realism brings into sharp relief the
conflict many teens face between pursuing their dreams and living their parents'.
Partnered with the deceptively simple, cute art of newcomer Thien Pham, Gene Yang has returned to the subject he revolutionized with
American Born Chinese. Whimsical and serious by turns, Level Up is a new look at the tale that Yang has made his own: coming of age
as an Asian American.
Author Biography
Gene Luen Yang has written and drawn many comics, including the hit Avatar: The Last Airbender series. American Born Chinese was a
National Book Award finalist, as well as the winner of the Printz Award and an Eisner Award. He also won the LA Times Book Prize for
Boxers & Saints. He is the author of the acclaimed comics and coding graphic novel series Secret Coders. Yang lives in the San Francisco
Bay Area.
THIEN PHAM is a comic book and visual artist, based in the Bay Area. He is also a high school teacher. Pham illustrated Gene Luen
Yang's Level Up, a YALSA Great Graphic Novel and New York Times Notable Children's Book. Sumo is his first solo work.

Lizzie Brown's life is one big to-do list:
1. Start college
2. Become cool
3. Decide wtf to do with her life
So when she meets Viv, the crazy, beautiful lead singer in a band, she thinks she's on her way to achieving number two on her list. And
when Viv asks her to be the bass player in the band, there's only one problem - Lizzie can't play a single note. And that she's nowhere
near cool enough (ok, two problems). And that she has a huge crush on the guitarist (ok, three), who happens to be Viv's boyfriend (ok,
this is a terrible idea).
But Viv won't take no for an answer, and decides that a makeover is the answer to everything. Boring Lizzie Brown is going to become
Betty Brown the Bass Player and there's nothing Lizzie can do about it . . .
Told with Eleanor Wood's trademark warmth and hilarity, Becoming Betty is the story of one girl's journey to being cool, and learning
what's on the other side.

Belinda, a classmate with developmental disabilities, being attacked. Inexplicably, she does nothing at all.
Belinda, however, manages to save herself. When their high school finds out what happened, Emily and Lucas, a football player who was

Author Biography
William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, in 1564. The date of his birth is unknown but is celebrated on 23
April, which happens to be St George's Day, and the day in 1616 on which Shakespeare died.
Aged eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway. They had three children. Around 1585 William joined an acting troupe on tour in Stratford
from London, and thereafter spent much of his life in the capital. By 1595 he had written five of his history plays, six comedies and his
first tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. In all, he wrote thirty-seven plays and much poetry, and earned enormous fame in his own lifetime in
prelude to his immortality.

Description
Gorgeous, strange and magical, A Midsummer Night's Dream is perhaps the best loved of Shakespeare's plays. A young woman flees
Athens with her lover, only to be pursued by her would-be husband and her best friend. Unwittingly, all four find themselves in an
enchanted forest where fairies and sprites soon take an interest in human affairs, dispensing love potions and casting mischievous spells.
In this dazzling comedy, confusion ends in harmony, as love is transformed, misplaced, and - ultimately - restored.

Description
Dark and violent, Macbeth is also the most theatrically spectacular of Shakespeare's tragedies. Promised a golden future as ruler of
Scotland by three sinister witches, Macbeth murders the king to ensure his ambitions are realized. But he soon learns the meaning of
terror - killing once, he must kill again and again, and the dead return to haunt him. A story of war and witchcraft, Macbeth also
explores the relationship between husband and wife, and the risks they are prepared to take to achieve their desires.

A young prince meets with his father's ghost, who alleges that his own brother, now married to his widow, murdered him. The prince
devises a scheme to test the truth of the ghost's accusation, feigning wild madness while plotting a brutal revenge until his apparent
insanity begins to wreak havoc on innocent and guilty alike. Hamlet's combination of violence, introspection, dark humour and rich
language is intoxicating. It remains the world's most widely studied and performed play, and is a cornerstone of world literature.

Othello is an intense drama of love, deception, jealousy and destruction. Desdemona's love for her husband Othello, the Moor,
transcends racial prejudice; but his trusted ensign, the envious Iago, conspires to devastate their lives. In its vivid rendering of the
savagery lurking within civilization, Othello is arguably the most topical and accessible tragedy from Shakespeare's major phase as a
dramatist. The play raises uncomfortable and pertinent questions about both racial identity and sexuality, as Othello and Desdemona's
relationship becomes the voyeuristic site of Iago's attempt to destroy them.

Description
Separated from her twin brother Sebastian after a shipwreck, Viola disguises herself as a boy to serve the Duke of Illyria. Wooing a
countess on his behalf, she is stunned to find herself the object of his beloved's affections. With the arrival of Viola's brother, and a trick

enlivened by a comic sub-plot of considerable accomplishment, has long made the play a favourite with Shakespearian audiences.

Controversial and sexually charged, The Taming of the Shrew is possibly Shakespeare's first play, and certainly among the most

The Merchant of Venice
William Shakespeare
Keynote
A complex and controversial play from the master playwright.
Description
The Merchant of Venice is most associated not with its titular hero, Antonio, but with the complex, unforgettable figure of the moneylender, Shylock. It is Shylock who finances Antonio's friend Bassanio in his pursuit of the beautiful Portia, and who demands a gruesome
bond from the wealthy merchant. Described as a comedy in the First Folio, Shakespeare's explorations of prejudice, duty and the nature
of justice make for a far darker play.

Author Biography
Arthur Conan Doyle was born in 1859. He trained to be a doctor at Edinburgh University and eventually set up a medical practice in
Southsea. During the quiet periods between patients, he turned his hand to writing, producing historical novels such as Micah Clarke
and adventure yarns including The Lost World, as well as four novels and fifty-six stories involving his most celebrated creations,
Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Doyle was knighted in 1902. In later life he devoted much of his time to his belief in Spiritualism, using
his writing and celebrity as a means of providing funds to support activities in this field. He died in 1930.

Author Biography
Rudyard Kipling was born in India in 1865. After intermittently moving between India and England during his early life, he settled in the
latter in 1889, published his novel The Light That Failed in 1891 and married Caroline (Carrie) Balestier the following year. They
returned to her home in Brattleboro, Vermont, where Kipling wrote the two Jungle Books and Captains Courageous. He continued to
write prolifically and was the first Englishman to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907 but his later years were darkened by the
death of his son John at the Battle of Loos in 1915. He died in 1936.
