Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and
home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love
her boyfriend Patrick.
What Lou doesn't know is she's about to lose her job or that knowing what's coming is what keeps her
sane.
Will Traynor knows his motorcycle accident took away his desire to live. He knows everything feels
very small and rather joyless now and he knows exactly how he's going to put a stop to that.
What Will doesn't know is that Lou is about to burst into his world in a riot of colour. And neither of
them knows they're going to change the other for all time.
Praise for Jojo Moyes:
'What a wonderful, thoughtful and moving book. I was riveted all the way through. Absolutely loved
it.' Sophie Kinsella
'Destined to be the novel that friends press upon each other. More than any other, Lou and Will are a

demands an afternoon on the sofa with a fistful of tissues.' Independent on Sunday

What happened to the girl you left behind?
In 1916 French artist Edouard Lefevre leaves his wife Sophie to fight at the Front. When her town
falls into German hands, his portrait of Sophie stirs the heart of the local Kommandant and causes her
to risk everything - her family, reputation and life - in the hope of seeing Edouard again.
Nearly a century later, Sophie's portrait is given to Liv by her young husband shortly before his sudden
death. Its beauty speaks of their short life together, but when the painting's dark and passion-torn
history is revealed, the first spark of love Liv has felt since is threatened...
In The Girl You Left Behind two young women, separated by a century, are united in their
determination to fight for the thing they love most - whatever the cost.

Shortlisted for the Dylan Thomas Prize
A chef, a portraitist and a barber are taken hostage in a coup to overthrow their boss, the president of a
nameless country. They are held captive in a palatial retreat in the mountains high above the capital
city. Meanwhile, the chef's daughter, the portraitist's pregnant wife and the barber's lover watch their
men from the shadows – for in such precarious times, intimate relationships are as dangerous as
political ones. As the old order falls, so does the veil that hides the truth about the secret passions of
these men and women.
Drawing her readers masterfully towards the novel's devastating climax, Ceridwen Dovey reveals how
humanity's most atavistic impulses – vanity, vengeance and greed – seethe, relentlessly, just beneath
the surface of everyday life.
'In this elegantly structured debut novel . . . in lively, straightforward prose, Dovey gets to the heart of
the complicit nature of the master–servant relationship, in which 'power and desire couple
effortlessly.' The New Yorker
'The prose is sensuous and restrained, the gaze piercing and relentless. Dovey exposes not only the
arrogance of power, but also the human heart's dark adoration of the powerful.' Hisham Matar, The
Observer
'A fable of the arrogance of power, beneath whose dreamlike surface swirl currents of complex
sensuality.' J.M. Coetzee
'A precise and terrifying debut novel . . . Dovey's ultimate lesson, that nature and mankind abhor a
power vacuum, may be a bleak one, but she presents her case so meticulously and relentlessly that
you've got to respect her authority.' New York Times
'A lovely, haunting novel, written with great care and precision. Working on the level of allegory, with
a careful consideration of history and myth, Ceridwen Dovey has fashioned a really fine debut.' Colum
McCann, author of Let the Great World Spin
'Taut and remarkably self-assured . . . there's a knowing sensuality to the novel's sparsely lyric
passages . . . Impressive.' Los Angeles Times
'A terrific debut novel . . . a meticulously constructed story about political corruption and its impact on
people's lives . . . artfully bleak and ingenious.' Sydney Morning Herald
'In this stripped-down Kafkaesque fable . . . Dovey infuses each character with humanity, and
brilliantly reveals how banal acts like cooking and shaving can become charged with longing and
political intent.' Vogue (US)
'Dovey's surgical prose and cool apprehension of the machinations of ambition and lust make her a
writer to watch.' O, The Oprah Magazine
'Slim [and] sharp . . . Dovey's novel is refreshingly spiky and precise, its insights startling and
original.' Entertainment Weekly
'Dovey's mesmerizing novel lifts the lid on a dictatorship and its perilous aftermath . . . There is a
hypnotic, languorous feel to the writing – even as the conclusion circles with the impatience of
vultures over carrion.' Catherine Taylor, The Guardian (UK)
'The trauma of physical violence is kept off stage whilst Dovey strategically deploys snapshots of
family heritage. The effect is tense and dramatic, as though the claustrophobic pressures of a country
house murder mystery, in which all are implicated by motive or connection, had been transplanted on
to the political instability of Garcia Marquez's revolutionary landscapes. Dovey draws strong, vivid
characters and her keen eye for signposting detail . . . gives a sensual counterpoint to the ruthless logic
of her subtly heralded denouement.' The Independent
'An excellently sculpted indictment of avarice, lust and human misery.' Glasgow Herald
'Superb . . . An Orwellian fable that is as masterful as it is entertaining.' Sunday Business Post (UK)

From the #1 New York Times–bestselling author, a brand-new series about the Cold War—and a
different breed of warrior.
In the first weeks after World War II, a squeaky-clean new second lieutenant named James D. Cronley
Jr. is spotted and recruited for a new enterprise that will eventually be transformed into something
called the CIA. One war may have ended, but another one has already begun, against an enemy that is
bigger, smarter, and more vicious: the Soviet Union.
The Soviets have hit the ground running, and Cronley's job is to help frustrate them, harass them, and
spy on them any way he can. His recruiter thinks he has the potential to become an asset—though, of
course, he could also screw up spectacularly. And in his first assignment, it looks like that's exactly
what might happen. He's got seven days to extract a vital piece of information from a Soviet agent, but
Cronley's managed to rile up his superior officers (he seems to have a talent for it), and if he fails, it
could be one of the shortest intelligence careers in history.
There are enemies everywhere—and, as Cronley is about to find out, some of them even wear the
same uniform he does.
Praise for Top Secret
'A thrilling new series entitled Clandestine Operations has begun, opening doors into special ops,
investigating the path to the Cold War, and unveiling clandestine connections between Argentina and
Germany during WWII . . . This incredible mix of intrigue, diplomacy and, of course, a bit of romance,
is fantastic. The reader will note the horror of the war, along with the massive role intelligence agents
played in the eventual victory. In other words, when this story from a literary team that ignites
suspense lovers everywhere comes to a close, readers will be panting for the next novel.' Suspense

After thirty-five years of marriage, Henry's wife, Alice, has forgotten his name. Suddenly, the reality
of his wife's illness and the limitations of his naïve vision of paradise in the mountains of Queensland's
D'aguilar Range confront him.
But when he awakens next morning to find a magnificent bird floating outside his bedroom window
and police investigating the disappearance of his enigmatic Polish neighbour, Kazimierz, Henry's
decline into grief, denial, and fantasy is halted by a series of signs he can neither decipher nor ignore.
Guided by a sacred plant medicine, Ayahuasca, the 'Vine of the Souls', and an obscure Sufi
legend, Henry is led on a visionary journey into a hidden landscape of illness and healing, memory and
myth to discover the delicate balance between magic and reality and the true power of the spirits of the
land.
Bold, lyrical, and utterly original, The Naked Vine is a stunning debut.

Using original documents and extracts from medieval chronicles, this novel tells the story of the rise of
the Tudor dynasty, from Lancastrian defeat at the battle of Towton, to Henry Tudor's victory at
Bosworth Field. It is also the story of Margaret Beaufort, who as history progresses moves from being
a peripheral figure, dominated by political power games, to a key player. Separated from her son in
his infancy, she takes increasingly dangerous steps to get him back - ultimately orchestrating a series
of rebellions against Richard III, and becoming implicated in the deaths of the Princes in the
Tower. Devoted mother, or ruthless and dangerous manipulator? This book presents the evidence of
the time.

In the final Pink Carnation novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Mark of the
Midnight Manzanilla, Napoleon has occupied Lisbon, and Jane Wooliston, aka the Pink Carnation,
teams up with a rogue agent to protect the escaped Queen of Portugal.
Portugal, December 1807. Jack Reid, the British agent known as the Moonflower (formerly the French
agent known as the Moonflower), has been stationed in Portugal and is awaiting his new contact. He
does not expect to be paired with a woman—especially not the legendary Pink Carnation.
All of Portugal believes that the royal family departed for Brazil just before the French troops marched
into Lisbon. Only the English government knows that mad seventy-three-year-old Queen Maria was
spirited away by a group of loyalists determined to rally a resistance. But as the French garrison scours
the countryside, it's only a matter of time before she's found and taken.
It's up to Jane to find her first and ensure her safety. But she has no knowledge of Portugal or the
language. Though she is loath to admit it, she needs the Moonflower. Operating alone has taught her to
respect her own limitations. But she knows better than to show weakness around the Moonflower—an
agent with a reputation for brilliance, a tendency toward insubordination, and a history of going rogue.
Readers guide included.

I disapproved of bankers, on principle. Not that I knew any. Until this job, I had worked and made
friends with people who shared my views. Mostly moral, mostly kind.
An unlikely candidate, then, for the job of executive speechwriter, to be putting words in the mouths of
plutocrats deeply suspicious of metaphors and words of more than two syllables. An unlikely
candidate, too, to be working for a firm...whose ethic was borrowed in equal parts from the Marines,
the CIA, and Las Vegas. A firm where women were about as welcome as fleas in a sleeping bag.
Wall Street in the mid-1990s: the recession is over and finance companies are gearing up for the next
boom. Cath—wisecracking Australian-born 'bedrock feminist, unreconstructed left-winger'—has given
up freelance writing for corporate life at one of the big investment banks. Her husband, Bailey, has
Alzheimer's, and they need serious money.
For seven years Cath lives in two worlds, both of them mad. By day she grapples with the twisted
logic and outsized egos of high finance. By night she witnesses the inexorable decline of the man she
loves as, ravaged by disease, he is 'reduced to a nub'.
Wise, unsentimental and darkly funny, Kate Jennings' Moral Hazard a crisp accounting of looming
meltdowns—financial and personal.

Women knit at the foot of the guillotine. Hundreds of blackbirds tumble suddenly from the sky. Red
Riding Hood's grandmother speaks from the belly of the wolf. Santa Lucia offers you her eyes on a

only thing more difficult than bearing witness is turning away.
'Chloe Wilson is among the most promising of Australia's younger poets … Not Fox Nor Axe is a

A poor doctor's daughter cures the King of France, and in return is promised marriage to any nobleman
she wishes. But the proud young count she chooses refuses to consummate the marriage and flees to
Florence - after setting her a seemingly impossible task. Depicting the triumph of trickery over
youthful arrogance, All's Well That Ends Well is among Shakespeare's darkest romantic comedies, yet
it remains a powerful tribute to the strength of love.

Virtuous enough. Swore little. Diced not above seven times a week'
Prince Hal, the son of King Henry IV, spends his time in idle pleasure with dissolute friends, among
them the roguish Sir John Falstaff. But when the kingdom is threatened by rebellious forces, the prince
must abandon his feckless ways. Ranging from taverns and brothels to the royal court and the

accept his duty as heir and leave his carousing companions behind. Pitting youth against old age, father
against son, carefree hope against the realities of ruling, this is an elegiac drama of pathos and regret.

True first-person stories of the Southern Ocean from NZ to Antarctica – the windiest, roughest,
most isolated body of water on earth.

- Joan Druett's Island of the Lost
- Bruce Chatwin's classic In Patagonia.

Motivated and media-savvy author & perennially popular genre
The Southern Ocean is Earth's most notorious body of water. It circles Antarctica, acts as a violent
mixer of wind and water, links all other oceans, is feared by sailors and explorers – and is mostly
ignored by the rest of the world.
Human influence is minimal; the idea of settlement is absurd. There are only widely scattered outposts
of people who have come ashore intentionally and temporarily – or have been shipwrecked or
abandoned.
The author is an intrepid sailor who has guided and spun stories on many southern ocean voyages to
Antarctica and subantarctic islands and led the Artists in Antarctica Programme.

Warfare, both at home and abroad, has shaped the way New Zealand defines itself: through
camaraderie and courage, patriotism and politics, identity and nationhood. Soldiers writing from the
front, journalists on the ground, biographers examining the lives of key figures, poets, novelists and
playwrights reflecting on the experience of combat — these have all helped to form the way we think
about war and so the way we think about ourselves.
The Penguin Book of New Zealand War Writing presents a rich interplay of writing about our country's
many military engagements. It features creative responses to conflict, such as a waiata written about an
inter-tribal skirmish, short stories on the World Wars, extracts from plays and novels set in such
campaigns as Chunuk Bair and Vietnam, and works by various poets, including James K. Baxter,
Eileen Duggan, Denis Glover, Allen Curnow and Robert Sullivan. There are vivid accounts by
journalists reporting home as well as by soldiers recalling their experiences in the trenches, the desert
or in the air. Rounding out this fascinating collection are thoughtful retrospective commentaries on the
impact of wars from precolonial times up to Afghanistan.

In a career that has spanned six decades, Sir Tom Jones has performed with almost every major
recording artist, from Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis and Sinatra, to Robbie Williams, Van Morrison and Jessie
J, across every imaginable genre, from rock and pop to country, blues and soul. The one constant
throughout has been his unique musical gift and unmistakable voice.
In this, his first ever autobiography, Tom will revisit his past, both personal and professional,
exploring the twists of fate that took a boy from a poor Welsh coal-mining family to global celebrity
status. He will chart the stories behind the hits as well as the ups and downs of his professional life from the heyday in Las Vegas and subsequent fallow years in the 1980s to his renaissance and
comeback, thanks to the direction and management of his son, Mark - as well as shedding a light on
the life he has led behind the cameras and the stage.

Yeonmi Park was not dreaming of freedom when she escaped from North Korea. She didn't even know
what it meant to be free. All she knew was that she was running for her life, that if she and her family
stayed behind they would die - from starvation, or disease, or even execution.
This book is the story of Park's struggle to survive in the darkest, most repressive country on earth; her
harrowing escape to South Korea through China's underworld of smugglers and human traffickers; and
her emergence as a leading human rights activist - all before her 21st birthday.

groups, Costello's memoir — which he has written himself, and will promote assiduously — is a oneman history of British music. A warm, deep and genuine insight into life, it is rich with anecdotes
about family, musicians, and the creation of his famous songs.

To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the best loved novels of the twentieth century. Yet for the last fifty
years, the novel's celebrated author, Harper Lee, known to her friends as Nelle, has said almost nothing
on the record. But in 2001, Nelle and her sister, Alice Finch Lee, opened their door to Chicago
Tribune journalist Marja Mills. It was the beginning of a long conversation—and a wonderful
friendship. Mills was given a rare opportunity to know Nelle, to be a part of the Lees' life in Alabama,
and to hear them reflect on their upbringing, their corner of the Deep South, and how To Kill a
Mockingbird affected their lives.

Portrait of the artist as a young gamer.
Gamelife is part memoir of childhood in the eighties, part meditation on the imaginative world of
computer games—and altogether wonderful, luminous and profound. Michael Clune's first computer
game is the text-based adventure 'Suspended' in which the player types commands, directing robots to
save the planet from destruction. The game raises deep questions for the boy and provides a
framework for his imagination about himself and the world. Seven primitive PC games take on an
almost religious significance in Michael's life.
Gamelife is one of those books that makes you see things differently, a brilliant memoir of a kid
discovering his own mental powers, and the magic of an electronic world he can escape into while
riding the shockwaves of his parents' divorce, his own adolescence and his apprenticeship in the world
of perception.

Life lessons from the ground up.
Sometimes you reap what you sow. Sometimes you reap what other people sowed. Sometimes you
haven't got a clue what you are sowing, and sometimes you just get lucky, or unlucky. All these things
are true of life, as of gardening.
In this thoughtful and beautifully observed book, journalist and gardening enthusiast Margaret Simons
takes readers on a journey through the seasons, and through the tiny patch of inner-urban earth that is
home to her garden.
Over a course of a year, within the garden and without, there are births to celebrate and deaths to
mourn; there are periods of great happiness and light, and times of quiet reflection. There is, in other
words, all the chaos, joy, sorrow, and splendour of being alive.

23 September 2015 9781846148750 Carton Qty: 1
When his widowed father - once a high court judge and always a formidable figure - drifted into
vagueness if not dementia, the writer Adam Mars-Jones took responsibility for his care. Intimately
trapped in the London flat where the family had always lived, the two men entered an oblique new
stage in their relationship.
In the aftermath of an unlooked-for intimacy, Mars-Jones has written a book devoted to particular
emotions and events but broad in its appeal. Kid Gloves is a highly entertaining book about (among
other things) families, the legal profession, and the vexed question of Welsh identity. It is necessarily
also a book about the writer himself - and the implausible, long-delayed moment, some years before,
when he told his sexually conservative father about his own orientation, taking the homophobic bull by
the horns.
The supporting cast includes Ian Fleming, the Moors Murderers, Jacqueline Bisset and Gilbert
O'Sullivan, the singer-songwriter whose trademark look kept long shorts from their rightful place on
the fashion pages for so many years.

During the glittering Twenties and Thirties, Elsa Schiaparelli was the undisputed queen of fashion.
Everyone who was anyone, from Vivien Leigh to the Duchess of Windsor, entered her doors in Paris
and wore whatever she told them. Her clothes were designed in a manner no one had seen before shocking pink, buttons shaped like butterflies, trompe l'oeil pockets - and made her more famous than
Chanel. The story of her breathtaking rise and the scandals which brought her down after the war make
this one of the most magnificent tales in the history of fashion.
'Brings to life the extraordinary achievements of a woman who revolutionized the world of fashion and
design.' Country Life
'Incisive, sympathetic, demonstrates great skill in unpicking the web of myths that Schiaparelli wove
to reveal the shape of the woman beneath.' Economist

The assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC left the Roman state in danger of total collapse; the ruling
class in society was breaking up entirely and threatened to carry everything down into the abyss with
it. The systems that had governed Rome for 500 years were crumbling, and there was no ready
substitute to hand. Amidst the chaos that followed, it was discovered that Caesar had named his greatnephew, Gaius Octavius, as his sole heir.
Augustus came to Rome at the age of eighteen, with nothing to support him but a certain amount of
past encouragement from the murdered dictator, and the clause in Caesar's will naming him as his son
and heir. Regarded by many as a provincial upstart, he had no supporters outside the dictator's
hangers-on, and had to stake his claim in the midst of a large pack of members of the old nobility,
Caesarian generals and greedy soldiers, none of them well disposed towards him. However, he
embarked on his game of political expediency, and played for the highest of stakes. Few thought he
had a chance.
In this magisterial biography, Jochen Bleicken shows how Augustus transformed the fraying and
unruly Republic into the greatest empire the world had ever seen. His consolidation and expansion of
Roman power two thousand years ago laid the foundations for much of Western history. Bleicken
examines Augustus' lonely struggle - in a society that was consuming itself with hatred, envy and
ambition, and in which every man struck out ruthlessly around him - and draws a compelling and vivid
portrait of a ruler with a deep understanding of human nature, and the calculating acumen to know how
best to manipulate it.

'The brutal reality of politics alone would probably be intolerable without drugs'
Hunter S. Thompson - the original Gonzo journalist and the supreme chronicler of the American
nightmare - tells the uncensored story of a life dedicated to excess in his hellraising autobiography.
From his first brush with the law aged nine, through crazed road trips, outlaw adventures, guns, bikes,
campaigning for local office in Aspen and accidentally being accused of trying to kill Jack Nicholson,
and on to the dark heart of America at the start of the twenty-first century, this 'depraved and terrifying'
ride through the life of an iconoclast is both hilarious and deadly serious.

In the 150 years since the end of the Civil War and the ratificiation of the Thirteenth Amendment, the
story of race and America has remained a brutally simple one, written on flesh: it is the story of the
black body, exploited to create the country's foundational wealth, violently segregated to unite a nation
after a civil war, and, today, still disproportionately threatened, locked up and killed in the streets.
What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can America reckon
with its fraught racial history?
Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates' attempt to answer those questions, presented in the
form of a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his own
awakening to the truth about history and race through a series of revelatory experiences: immersion in
nationalist mythology as a child; engagement with history, poetry and love at Howard University;
travels to Civil War battlefields and the South Side of Chicago; a journey to France that reorients his
sense of the world; and pilgrimages to the homes of mothers whose children's lives have been taken as
American plunder. Taken together, these stories map a winding path towards a kind of liberation—a
journey from fear and confusion, to a full and honest understanding of the world as it is.
Masterfully woven from lyrical personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged
reportage, Between the World and Me offers a powerful new framework for understanding America's
history and current crisis, and a transcendent vision for a way forward.

For five decades Tom Keneally has been one of Australia's finest and most loved writers. Celebrated
across the world as a master storyteller, and known especially for the Booker Prize-winning
Schindler's Ark, he is also respected for his humanitarian work and his commitment to causes such as
republicanism. The breadth and richness of Keneally's life is explored in this comprehensive
biography, authorised by the subject and written by Stephany Evans Steggall.
Beneath Keneally's warm and garrulous exterior is a complex man intermittently troubled by
depression and anxiety. The prolific writer and popular raconteur has known many 'dark nights of the
soul'. His commitment to Catholicism once led him to train for the priesthood, but crippling doubt left
him unable to fulfil that ambition. Instead, he became a haunted writer – and then an uninhibited
storyteller.
Keneally's remarkable career has seen him win literary acclaim and commercial success across the
world. His works are frequent and diverse, ranging from much-loved novels (Bring Larks and Heroes,
Confederates) and memoir (Homebush Boy, Searching for Schindler) to respected works of history
(The Great Shame, Three Famines). A number of his novels have also been made into award-winning
films (The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith, Schindler's List).
The story of Keneally's life and work is brilliantly told in this engaging and accessible new biography
by Stephany Evans Steggall. The result of exhaustive research and unique opportunities to interview
Keneally himself, Interestingly Enough is the definitive account of an extraordinary Australian.

I never met anyone whose interest in racing matched my own. Both on and off the course, so to speak,
I've enjoyed the company of many a racing acquaintance...I've read books, or parts of books, by
persons who might have come close to being true racing friends of mine if ever we had met. For most
of my long life, however, my enjoyment of racing has been a solitary thing: something I could never
wholly explain to anyone else.
As a boy, Gerald Murnane became obsessed with horse racing. He had never ridden a horse, nor seen a
race. Yet he was fascinated by photos of horse races in the Sporting Globe, and by the incantation of
horses' names in radio broadcasts of races. Murnane discovered in these races more than he could find
in religion or philosophy: they were the gateway to a world of imagination.
Gerald Murnane is like no other writer, and Something for the Pain is like no other Murnane book. In
this unique and spellbinding memoir, he tells the story of his life through the lens of horse racing. It is
candid, droll and moving—a treat for lovers of literature and of the turf.

fears, and asks the big questions about life, about the shadows we inherit and the gifts we pass on.
Honest, poignant, utterly captivating, Reckoning announces the arrival of a fearless writer and natural
storyteller. It will touch the lives of its readers.

In this year's highly anticipated Massey Lectures, internationally acclaimed historian Margaret
MacMillan gives her own personal selection of the memorable figures of the past, women and men,
who have changed the course of history and even directed the currents of their times.
The actions of Hitler, Stalin and Thatcher had epic, resounding consequences, but there are other ways
to shape the course of history: those like Samuel de Champlain, the dreamers, explorers or adventurers
who stand out in history for who they were as much as for what they did; or observers like Michel de
Montaigne, who kept the notes and diaries that bring the past to life for us.
History's People is about the important and complex relationship between biography and history,
individuals and their times, and the transformative moments that have shaped the world.

When the Romans retreated from northern Europe, they left behind lands of barbarians at the very

the heart of scientific, mercantile and artistic enlightenments and controlled the first truly global
empires.
In The Edge of the World, Michael Pye explains how a small but treacherous body of water inspired
the saints, spies, fisherman, pirates, traders and marauders who lived beside and journeyed across the
North Sea to give birth to our modern world.

A radical reinterpretation of the wartime Pope.
Born Eugenio Pacelli, Pope Pius XII is perhaps the most vilified and detested Pope in modern history.
Pius XII and the Vatican are thought to have appeased Hitler and betrayed international Jewry by
staying silent during the Holocaust. The accusation has fundamentally damaged the Catholic Church's
moral standing, and earned Pius XII the nickname 'Hitler's Pope'. But this narrative — of a spiritual
leader who stumbled in the world's greatest hour of need, of a man determined to look the other way
— is not the complete story.
In Church of Spies, intelligence expert Mark Riebling uses a wealth of recently uncovered documents
to redraw the conventional image of the wartime Pope, who, in his account, was not Hitler's lackey,
but an active anti-Nazi spymaster. Using documents recently released by the Vatican Secret Archives
and the British Foreign Office, Riebling shows that the Church's wartime campaign against Hitler was
far more extensive than ever thought — and that many actions were intended to undermine the Nazi
regime, and were approved by Pius XII himself.
In the end, Pius XII was neither a righteous gentile nor Hitler's Pope. He was a politician, at a time
when the world needed a prophet.

1946. Written in the immediate aftermath of the disaster, it chronicles what happened through the eyes
of six civilians who survived against the odds. It is a classic piece of journalism, and a defining

'How many Australians born in the 137 years since Truganini's death learnt her legend and
scarcely thought deeper about the enormity of the loss she represented, and the history that led
to it? Her spirit casts a long shadow over Australian history, but we have nearly all of us found a
way to avert our eyes from its meaning.'
In The War of the Worlds, Noel Pearson considers the most confronting issue of Australian history: the
question of genocide, in early Tasmania and elsewhere. With eloquence and passion, he explores the
'emotional convulsions of identification and memory' that he feels on encountering these events. Rereading Dickens and Darwin, Pearson acknowledges the 'fatal logic' of the colonial project, and seeks
to draw out its meaning for Australians today.

around, a Sudanese security guard approaches me, his face concerned. Am I lost? he wants to
know.
In a way, I am. I don't want a beer. It's 10 a.m., for Chrissake.'
In Booze Territory, Anna Krien takes a clear-eyed look at Indigenous binge-drinking – who does it,
why, and what it means. She visits bars brimming with morning drinkers and investigates alcoholic
after-effects ranging from extreme violence to extraordinarily high rates of cirrhosis of the liver. This
is an essay which never fails to see the human dimension of an intractable problem and shine a light on
its deep causes.
The One Day: Short Black 7

'Silence was a deeply established tradition. Men used it as a form of self-protection; it saved
those who had experienced the horrors of war from the emotional trauma of experiencing it all
over again in the telling. And it saved women and children, back home, from the terrible
knowledge of what they had seen and walked away from … One result of this was that the men
who had actually lived through Gallipoli and the trenches did not write about it.'
In the century since the Gallipoli landing, Anzac Day has taken on a different tenor for each
succeeding generation. Perceptively and evocatively, David Malouf traces the meaning of this 'one
day' when Australians stop to reflect on endurance, service and the folly of war. He shows how what
was once history has now passed into legend, and how we have found in Anzac Day 'a truly national
occasion.'

'A big liner, brightly lit, passes us one or two cable-lengths ahead. 'Ow! They are guzzling
champagne but cannot see what's in front of them!' grumbles Etienne, who has the helm and
puts Prosper back on course. Our wooden boat, which one long wave can carry, is a mere cork in
the wake of that ship, which crushes three dozen such waves under her uncaring steel plates.
How many hundreds of men does she carry? Up there, people laugh, play, dream, eat and sleep
… while we, a few feet above the water, surrounded by dancing lights, keep watch till dawn.'
One summer, Simon Leys joined the crew of a tuna-fishing boat in Brittany, one of the last boats
working under sail. In this exceptionally beautiful and elegiac essay, he evokes the traditions,
hardships and dangers of the oldest and finest form of seamanship.

'On the last day of 1985, I went home to live in Bunyah, the farming valley I had left some
twenty-nine years earlier. My wife and our younger children followed two days later … at last I
was going home, to care for my father in his old age and to live in the place from which I'd
always felt displaced. What I didn't know was that I was heading home in order to go mad.'
Killing the Black Dog is Les Murray's frank and courageous account of his struggle with depression.
Since this essay first appeared, hosts of readers have drawn insight from his account of the disease, its
social effects and its origins in his family's history. Murray describes how patches of daylight now
balance out those of darkness in his life.

'In every religion I can think of, there exists some variation on the theme of abandoning the
settled life and walking one's way to godliness. The Hindu Sadhu, leaving behind family and
wealth to live as a beggar; the pilgrims of Compostela walking away their sins; the
circumambulators of the Buddhist kora; the Hajj. What could this ritual journeying be but
symbolic, idealised versions of the foraging life? By taking to the road we free ourselves of
baggage, both physical and psychological. We walk back to our original condition, to our best
selves.'
After many thousands of years, the nomads are disappearing, swept away by modernity. Robyn
Davidson has spent a good part of her life with nomadic cultures. In this fascinating and moving essay
she evokes a vanishing way of life, and notes a paradox: that even as classical nomads are
disappearing, hypermobility has become the hallmark of contemporary life. In a time of environmental
peril, she argues, the nomadic way with nature still offers valuable lessons. No Fixed Address is part
lament, part evocation and part exhilarating speculative journey.

'I will continue my work on my land, building a future. It is the only thing that is certain to me
now and I want to advance while I can. I am trying to light the fire in our young men and
women. We are setting fires to our own lives as we really should, and the flame will burn and
intensify – an immense smoke, cloud-like and black, will arise, which will send off a signal and
remind people that we, the Gumatj people, are the people of the fire. There are people of the fire
around Alice Springs – and I reach out to them, too. We can then burn united, together.'
Tradition, Truth & Tomorrow is 'no mere essay. It is an existential prayer,' writes Noel Pearson.
Galarrwuy Yunupingu tells of his clan and his early life. He recounts his dealings with prime
ministers, and how he learnt that nothing is ever what it seems. And behind him, he writes, 'the Yolngu
world is always under threat, being swallowed up by whitefellas. This is a weight that is bearing down
on me; at night it is like a splinter in my mind.'

Television Is the New Television: The Unexpected Triumph of Old

This is a book about what happens when the smartest people in the room decide something is
inevitable, and yet it doesn't come to pass. What happens when omens have been misread, tea leaves
misinterpreted, gurus embarrassed?
Twenty years after the Netscape IPO, ten years after the birth of YouTube, and five years after the first
iPad, the Internet has still not destroyed the giants of old media. CBS, News Corp, Disney, Comcast,
Time Warner, and their peers are still alive, kicking, and making big bucks. The New York Times still
earns far more from print ads than from digital ads. Super Bowl commercials are more valuable than
ever. Banner ad space on Yahoo can be bought for a relative pittance.
Sure, the darlings of new media—Buzzfeed, HuffPo, Politico, and many more—keep attracting ever
more traffic, in some cases truly phenomenal traffic. But as Michael Wolff shows in this fascinating
and sure-to-be-controversial book, their buzz and venture financing rounds are based on assumptions
that were wrong from the start, and become more wrong with each passing year. The consequences of
this folly are far reaching for anyone who cares about good journalism, enjoys bingeing on Netflix,
works with advertising, or plans to have a role in the future of the Internet.
Wolff set out to write an honest guide to the changing media landscape, based on a clear-eyed
evaluation of who really makes money and how. His conclusion: the Web, social media, and various
mobile platforms are not the new television. Television is the new television.
We all know that Google and Facebook are thriving by selling online ads—but they're aggregators, not
content creators. As major brands conclude that banner ads next to text basically don't work, the value
of digital traffic to content-driven sites has plummeted, while the value of a television audience
continues to rise. Even if millions now watch television on their phones via their Netflix, Hulu, and
HBO GO apps, that doesn't change the balance of power. Television by any other name is the
game everybody is trying to win—including outlets like The Wall Street Journal that never used to
play the game at all.
Drawing on his unparalleled sources in corner offices from Rockefeller Center to Beverly Hills, Wolff
tells us what's really going on, which emperors have no clothes, and which supposed geniuses are due
for a major fall. Whether he riles you or makes you cheer, his book will change how you think about
media, technology, and the way we live now.

A simple shelter, somewhere peaceful, surrounded by nature.
Wherever you dream of having your quiet place, these rural escapes are for anyone yearning for a
different kind of existence.
Created by a group of friends who preserve 55 acres of hidden forest in Upstate New York, Cabin Porn
began as a scrapbook to collect inspiration for their building projects. It has since grown into a
collection of photos of the most remarkable handmade homes in breath-taking landscapes from all over
the world, and has attracted a dedicated, obsessive following.
In this book the creators of Cabin Porn go further into its most alluring images, with more interior
photography and the stories behind some of these unusual and inspiring homes. With their idyllic
settings, unique architecture and cozy interiors, the Cabin Porn photographs, are an invitation to step
away from our online lives, slow down, take a deep breath, and feel the beauty and serenity that nature
and simplicity can create.

In a bold and unprecedented project, acclaimed international artist Fiona Foley curated a cutting-edge
installation in the University of Queensland's sandstone Great Court.
Universities have traditionally been elite institutions, overlooking and undervaluing the contributions
of Indigenous thinkers, activists and artists. This history is etched into the walls of the Great Court,
with anachronistic concepts of humanity and racial difference revealed in many of the friezes and
sculptural reliefs. Fiona Foley and her team of eight Aboriginal artists aimed to challenge these
concepts.
The 'Courting Blakness' exhibition reclaimed this historically white space, creating a visual dialogue
between contemporary Aboriginal art and colonial-inspired architecture. It also sparked important
conversations about issues that matter to both Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.
Featuring striking images as well as essays by artists, curators and academics, Courting Blackness is a
stylish and comprehensive tribute to this innovative project.

Why do some people seem to find it easy to come up with brilliant, fresh ideas? And how do they turn
them into something worthwhile?
Will Gompertz, the BBC's Arts Editor and a former director at the Tate, has spent years getting up
close and personal with some of the world's greatest creative thinkers. And he's discovered a handful
of traits that are common to all successful people, from novelists and film directors to scientists and
philosophers.
These basic practices allow their talent to flourish. And they can be adopted by all of us - no matter
what we do in life - to unleash our own latent creativity and help us achieve extraordinary things. It's
time to Think Like An Artist.

highlights the widespread presence of maps in our lives and the many reasons that people create

book features some of the greatest masterpieces from the history of cartography, such as the first
map to name America from 1507 and Marie Tharp's groundbreaking panorama of the ocean floor in
the 1970s, as well as surprising and less familiar works. Rather than following a thematic or
chronological arrangement, thoughtfully curated pairings reveal the huge variety and the often
unexpected similarities of the cartographer's art through time and around the world.
Comprehensive in scope, Map: Exploring The World also features useful reference information to
guide the reader through the story of cartography, including biographies of selected cartographers
and an illustrated timeline detailing significant events in mapmaking, exploration and related
historical events. Each map is accompanied by a concise, explanatory text written by leading
international map experts, curators and cartographers to help the reader understand the historical
importance of the work and its significance.
30,000 Years of Art: The Story of Human Creativity Across Time &
Space
Phaidon Editors
$55.00 (Miscell H/B) Phaidon 656pp
23 September 2015 9780714870090 Carton
Qty: 1
Following on from Phaidon's bestselling The Art Book, published in 1994, 30,000 Years of
Art was conceived and edited by Phaidon editors as a follow-up volume. First published in 2007,
the book offered an original and accessible way of looking at art, presenting the story of human
creativity. Great works of art from all periods and regions in the world are arranged in
chronological order in a book designed for a general readership. The book breaks through the
usual geographical and cultural boundaries of art history to celebrate the vast range of human
artistry across time and space. Revised and updated, this new medium-format edition will feature
over 600 works of art from the original edition, but will also boast newly added twentieth- and
twenty-first century examples.
Each work is accompanied by key caption information (date, title, place of origin, style or
culture, medium, dimensions etc.), and a text that provides critical review of the work, placing it
in its art historical context and thus explaining its contribution to the development of the history
of art. The book presents art in a way different from other art history compendia, revealing the
huge diversity, or in many cases similarity, of man's artistic achievements through time and
around the globe. Ordered chronologically, the resulting timeline of works leads to compelling
browsing: surprising juxtapositions offer intellectual pleasure and a sense of wonder and
discovery. The selection of works from across the world, arranged in the sequence in which they
were made, will take the reader on a global and historical journey, as a Chinese Shang urn stands
next to a Mycenaean vase, and Michelangelo's Slave is followed by a contemporaneous male
sculpture from Nigeria. The chronological arrangement responds to such questions as where does
the earliest art appear? What were artists creating in China or Africa while Rembrandt was
painting portraits in Leyden? How were similar subjects - equestrian themes, landscapes,
religious scenes - manipulated by artists in Aztec Mexico and Medieval Europe?
Although the sequence of works in the book is strictly chronological, the selection of entries for
an individual culture will comprise an abbreviated history of the art of that people. Thus, while
artworks from ancient Greece or the European Renaissance or pre-Columbian Americas will be
interspersed with contemporaneous works created in Africa, India or Japan, an extraction of the
Greek or Renaissance or American works could stand alone as an essential abridgement of the
finest art of that period or culture.

23 September 2015 9780714870595 Carton
Qty: 1
First published in 2002, the reissue of this 408-page monograph of work by the legendary fashion
stylist Grace Coddington is also a showcase for some of the greatest photographs ever published
in British and American Vogue.
Grace Coddington's undisputed talent and impassioned commitment to her work as creative director of
Vogue have made her an international style icon. The September Issue, the acclaimed 2009
documentary, focused on Grace's working relationship with Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour. The
daughter of a hotelier in Wales, Grace was a teenager when she won a Vogue modelling competition
and moved to London to become one of the top models on the city's swinging 1960s fashion scene. In
1968, Grace decided she wanted to work behind the camera and started work as a junior editor at
British Vogue. She soon established herself as a master stylist and creative director. 'I hate fashion
trends so in my head I write a script to make it less fashion', has always been her credo, storytelling
with clothing that is the quintessence of Grace Coddington's work.
Grace: Thirty Years at Vogue is both a monograph and memoir. It tells how Grace transformed static
studio portraiture into beguiling tableaux and turned location shoots into sweeping narratives in
magical locations, two of the genres that she is credited with bringing to the history of contemporary
fashion photography. There is model Jerry Hall in Communist Russia, with Sir Norman Parkinson
trying to smuggle the film out. Aretha Franklin appears as the queen in a version of Snow White
photographed by Bruce Weber. A sequence depicts photographing the infamous grunge collection of
the mid-1990s with Steven Meisel and the model Kristen McMenamy. Naomi Campbell is featured
beaded and bikinied in Irving Penn's studio. From collaborations with some 30 photographers, these
are just a few of the moments Grace recalls with lively text contributions by Michael Roberts, former
fashion editor for Vanity Fair and the New Yorker.

Smile in the Mind: Witty Thinking in Graphic Design (Revised and
Expanded Edition)

$45.00 (Misc P/B) Phaidon 272pp
23 September 2015 9780714869353
Carton Qty: 1
This book explores so-called 'witty thinking' - arguably the most entertaining area of graphic design.
Witty thinking is playfulness with ideas, words playing against images, and unexpected connections
prompting new insights.
In this extensively revised edition, where once it was only logos and letterheads, now it's also
product designs and even works of art. The design industry's definition of a 'witty idea' has arguably
moved on too – where once there was an accepted divide between 'ideas-led' and 'style-led' design,
there is now a more nuanced understanding that the divide isn't always that simple. A style can be an
idea, an idea can be a style. Wit is expressing itself in different ways.
As a compendium of more recent work, exploring the places where wit is alive and well, and also a
celebration of classic work, A Smile in the Mind is organized to help understand the thinking
techniques behind images and learn how to make the case for witty solutions. It analyses the
different types of wit, the various items that utilize wit, and the business sectors that best call upon
wit to get their message across. Designers can refer to examples for every category of graphics, from
direct mail to information graphics, and for a variety of sectors from leisure and the arts to
manufacturing and the law. The book ends with a series of over thirty in-depth interviews with the
world's top designers who answer the big question: how did they get the idea? They offer a peep into
their private working methods, suggesting how to get inspiration as they check out word lists, look at
things sideways, or put several jobs on the table at once.
Gathering together the best and most recent examples of graphic wit over the past four decades, A
Smile in the Mind still has a lot to teach people today. It's ultimately not about championing any
particular school of design, but celebrating great and timeless work – timeless, because styles and
trends date, but thinking and ideas never do.

Qty: 1
This is the most comprehensive monograph available on Steven Holl, one of America's greatest living
architects, and the only one written with the architect's cooperation. Written by award-winning author
and architecture critic Robert McCarter, it presents Holl's most important works, realized and
unrealized, from 1974 to today, and examines the architectural principles and concepts that underlie
his designs.
Holl's buildings are examined through analysis of his design process and ideas, as well as his methods
and materials of construction. Experiential 'walkthroughs' of Holl's buildings place the reader within
the spaces and describe how they act to engage all the senses.
Holl is rightly considered the greatest of the third generation of American modern architects,
following the first and second generations of Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Kahn, whose work has
served as both a source of inspiration and a standard for Holl's work. This is the first in-depth survey
of his work and its influence on the next generation.

Daniel Ost's work in floral design goes far beyond table arrangements to bridge the gap between floral
design and art. Considering Ost an artist, we can understand his medium as elements from the natural
world: flowers, branches, and plants of all varieties. His large-scale, site-specific constructions at times
enter the realms of sculpture and set design. These works are as much about the ways in which they
transform the places they inhabit as they are about Ost's particular and creative utilization of natural
materials. Among his many varied projects are the backdrop to the show of Dries Van Noten's spring
2007 collection and a sculptural installation at the 2007 Venice Biennale.
Like any artist's monograph, this book focuses on the range of Ost's work over time, highlighting his
most celebrated works while providing an overarching view of his career.

$45.00 (Miscell H/B) Phaidon 120pp
23 September 2015 9780714869537 Carton

This book tells the story of Italian designer and architect Ettore Sottsass (1917-2007), not just
revealing the anecdotes and inspirations behind many of his most famous pieces but also detailing his
encounters with some of the most iconic figures of the 20th century, such as Picasso, Hemingway and
Allen Ginsberg.
Perhaps best known as the founder of the Memphis Group in the 1980s – famous for its colourful and
flamboyant furniture, ceramics and lighting pieces – Ettore Sottsass was one of the most important and
prolific Italian designers of the 20th century and is celebrated internationally for his contribution to
architecture, industrial and furniture design, ceramics, graphic design, and photography. He initially
trained as an architect, before going on to become design consultant for Olivetti, where he designed the
Valentine typewriter, one of his most iconic pieces. Throughout his long career, which spanned many
disciplines, he traveled extensively, taking thousands of photographs of the things that inspired him.
This book - written by Deyan Sudjic - explores the entire life of this incredible designer, placing it in
historical context, and covering everything from Sottsass's birth in 1917 to his death in 2007. It also
includes approximately 100 carefully selected, and previously unpublished images from the Ettore
Sottsass Archives in Milan, to illustrate the key moments, encounters and people in his long life.

$75.00 (Miscell H/B) Phaidon 136pp
23 September 2015 9780714870281 Carton
Qty: 1
This book provides a unique perspective on the artwork of Isamu Noguchi and the Noguchi Museum,
as seen through the eyes of renowned photographers Stephen Shore and Tina Barney. Noguchi, a
modernist sculptor and designer, founded and designed the museum for the specific purpose of
exhibiting his works. The 1920s-era industrial space in Long Island City, Queens, thus became the first
and only museum in the US to be designed by a living artist for the artist's own work.
Over the past year, Shore has photographed individual works on view at the museum, documenting
them in new and surprising ways; and Barney has photographed visitors at the museum and its events,
capturing something of the spatial experience of the museum. Together with an essay reflecting on
Noguchi and his influence, these new photographs comprise a beautiful object that pays tribute to the
museum and artwork while highlighting the skill and eye of these two photographers. A section at the
end of the book features more traditional plate images of iconic Noguchi works, to give context to
Shore's and Barney's photographs.

Nein. A Manifesto.

$26.00 (Demy H/B 216x135mm) Text 172pp
23 September 2015 9781925240382 Carton
Qty: 1
Nein. A Manifesto. is an irreverent philosophical investigation into the everyday that sounds the call to
rediscover its strangeness. Inspired by the philosophical aphorisms of Nietzsche, Karl Kraus, Walter
Benjamin and Theodor W. Adorno, Jarosinski's epigrammatic style reinvents short-form philosophy
for a world doomed to distraction.
As tenets of a rather unorthodox manifesto, Jarosinski's four-line compositions seek to illuminate our
most urgent questions—and our most ephemeral. The result is a compelling and thought-provoking
translation of digital into print. Theory into praxis. And tragedy into farce.
Nein. A Manifesto. is a must-read for critical thinkers, lovers of language, bibliophiles, manics and
depressives alike.

For more than twenty years Wendy Whiteley has worked to create a public garden at the foot of her
harbourside home in Sydney's Lavender Bay. This is the extraordinary story of how a determined,
passionate and deeply creative woman has slowly transformed an overgrown wasteland into a beautiful
sanctuary for everyone to enjoy - and in the process, transformed herself.
Wendy Whiteley was Brett Whiteley's wife, muse and model. An artist herself, with a finely honed
aesthetic sense, she also created the interiors at the heart of Brett's iconic paintings of their Lavender
Bay home. When Brett died, followed by the death nine years later of their daughter Arkie, Wendy
threw her grief and creativity into making an enchanting hidden oasis out of derelict land owned by the
New South Wales Government. This glorious guerrilla garden is Wendy's living artwork, designed
with daubs of colour, sinuous shapes and shafts of light.
This is Wendy's story but it's also the story of the countless people who cherish the Secret Garden.
'I've loved making this garden. It's been a great gift to my life. It let me find myself again, and it's my
gift to share with the public.' Wendy Whiteley
A History of Opera: The Last Four Hundred Years

23 September 2015 9780141009018 Carton Qty: 1
Why has opera transfixed and fascinated audiences for centuries? Carolyn Abbate and Roger Parker
answer this question in their scrupulous and provocative retelling of the history of opera, examining its
development, the means by which it communicates, and its societal role. In a new revision with an
expanded examination of opera as an institution in the twenty-first century this book explores the
tensions that have sustained opera over 400 years: between words and music, character and singer,
inattention and absorption. Abbate and Parker argue that, though the genre's most popular and
enduring works were almost all written in a distant European past, opera continues to transform the
viewer with its enduring power.
'A joy . . . Will surely become essential reading for anyone seeking an engaging and highly informed
chronicle of the great composers and their works . . . takes the story of opera from its roots in lateRenaissance Italy via Mozart, Rossini, Wagner, Verdi, Puccini, Strauss and a great many less familiar
figures through to Berg, Britten and beyond.' Daniel Snowman, Opera
'A virtuoso performance . . . fantastically clear-sighted and down-to-earth . . . Abbate and Parker guide
us through this complicated story in beautiful, uncluttered prose . . . a fantastic read.' Igor ToronyiLalic, Daily Telegraph
'Abbate and Parker wear their academic background lightly, bringing to life the social as well as
artistic origins of opera, and casting an unhackneyed perspective on well-known works.' Andrew
Clark, Financial Times Books of the Year
'Fresh, brave, challenging and, above all, useful.' Literary Review
'Brims with insight, and polemic.' New Yorker

Are you frustrated in your efforts to succeed and create abundance in your life? Are you exasperated
even though you may have set goals for yourself, gained knowledge, and worked hard? Are your
financial dreams just not working out the way you'd like them to, or as fast as you'd like them to? Are
you wondering what is standing in your way, preventing you from accessing the life of freedom you've
been dreaming about? Well, The Abundance Code is here to provide the answer you've been
searching for…
There is a hidden yet crucial element to success and abundance that most people are unaware of—
because that essential element is buried in their unconscious minds.
The Abundance Code is about how you can (and must!) rewrite your subconscious programming so
that you can effortlessly achieve the rich life of abundance you deserve. Julie Ann Cairns takes you
through the '7 Money Myths'—an extremely common set of subconscious barriers put up between you
and your attainment of abundant wealth and freedom—and helps you banish them, so that your
subconscious 'code' can come into alignment with your conscious goals for financial freedom. If your
underlying programming does not support your goals—and it probably doesn't—then Julie will show
you how to get out of your own way and finally access the life you have always wanted.
You can be successful, you can be wealthy, and you can make money without expending physical
effort or sacrificing too much of your precious time. You can become financially free with the luxury
of choice. It's all possible for you, but conscious goals and knowledge are not enough to make this
happen—you also need a set of supporting subconscious beliefs in order to ultimately prosper. If you
have tried and tried to attain financial freedom but are still struggling, then this book will provide the
breakthrough you've been waiting for.

Carton Qty: 1
Growing up in a tranquil wilderness, Teal Swan had a childhood that was anything but serene. Horrors
lurked behind the façade of the perfect houses and pious community of the surrounding towns, and
Teal attracted undue attention because of her unusually powerful extrasensory abilities. At the hands of
a local cult member, she barely survived 13 years of horrendous abuse—and even after her escape, she
was left powerless, lost, hurting, and with no way to cope. Gradually, and incredibly, Teal forged her
way from shadowy moments of despair to a sliver of light . . . and eventually emerged from the
darkness into the full dawn of self-love. Here, she shows how you, too, can achieve the feelings of
worthiness that may be long missing from your life.
Now a recognised spiritual luminary, Teal documents how she dug herself out of self-hate into selflove, and details the remarkable trail for others to get to the same place. Shadows Before Dawn
encompasses both Teal's compelling story, told with raw intensity, and her resolute, no-nonsense howto guide to healing from even the deepest levels of suffering. Offering a comprehensive self-love tool
kit, this book includes powerful exercises, insights, and perspective from a captivating new teacher in
spirituality, and lets you pick and choose which techniques are right for you.
Teal's resonating words will sit with your soul long after you put this book down and will serve as
guideposts on the way to complete self-love, no matter who you are or where you are in life.

The Ancient Hermetic Secrets to Alchemy and Divine Magic Revealed!
You have natural magical abilities that can elevate your life to a whole new level, as well as heal and
help your loved ones and clients. The original teacher of this Divine magic was an Egyptian sage
named Hermes Trismegistus. His teachings, called 'Hermetics,' were only taught verbally or in very
cryptic writings. In 1908, three Hermetic students recorded them in a book called The Kybalion. Yet
this work was still difficult to understand because of its archaic and confusing language.
Now, in Divine Magic, Doreen Virtue presents a clear, edited version of The Kybalion, written in
understandable and modern language while retaining all of the original teachings. She gives
comments and practical suggestions based upon her own success in using Hermetic teachings for
healing and manifestation. With Divine Magic, you can master your moods, release negativity,
manifest new levels of abundance, and attract wonderful opportunities in all areas of your life.

In Three Crooked Kings we read about the shocking true story of Queensland and how a society was
shaped by almost half a century of corruption. In Jacks and Jokers the story continued with Terry
Lewis taking the reins as police commissioner, while corruption at the highest levels of the police and
government thrived.
All Fall Down is the final gripping instalment in this best-selling trilogy, with more corruption,
colourful new characters and bad behaviour outside the law by the law. It charts the dramatic demise
of police commissioner Terry Lewis, signalling an end to 'The Joke' and the infamous 'crooked kings'.
It also reveals for the first time the true story of events leading up to the Fitzgerald Inquiry in the late
1980s, courtesy of interviews with several key players who have, until now, remained silent. As well
as the dramatic exit of Queensland's longest serving Premier Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen, All Fall Down
captures the resilience and spirit of those unsung heroes who risked all to finally tell the truth about the
extent of crime and corruption thriving in Queensland.
Containing new revelations and exclusive interviews, All Fall Down concludes the epic saga that
embroiled the police force, judiciary and politics – and changed a state forever. While many would
fall, it was not always those who should have.

Healing Our History 3rd Edition

'Based on years of Treaty work experience, [this book] is essential reading.'
--Claudia Orange
The Treaty of Waitangi is the most important document in New Zealand's history.
Current Treaty issues and Maori/Pakeha relationships can only be understood within the wider story
of New Zealand. As we understand and honour our history, we can acknowledge the need for
restoration, healing and right relationships.
The public response to previous editions of this bestselling book by Robert Consedine and his daughter
Joanna Consedine has been strong and overwhelmingly positive.
This 2012 edition updates and expands on the critical issues: the foreshore and seabed debate, Maori
access to political power, and the emergence of the Maori Party; the remarkable growth of the Maori
economy, self-determination, Maori language and the developments in Maori education; constitutional
issues, and the benefits of the Treaty settlement process. New Zealand and all New Zealanders have
much to celebrate—and many challenges ahead.
Drawing on Robert's unique experience as a leading Treaty educator, the powerful message of this
book illustrates how each and every New Zealander across all cultures can discover a new sense of
personal and national identity, grounded in an authentic Treaty relationship.
'This is one of those books New Zealand needs.'

Qty: 6
'This is a story worth telling and deserves to be read by all New Zealanders.'
--Lieutenant General The Right Honourable Sir Jerry Mateparae GNZM QSO, Governor-General of
New Zealand
A Bloody Road Home is the story of 2 New Zealand Division in World War Two. Commanded by the
New Zealand-raised and educated Lieutenant General Sir Bernard 'Tiny' Freyberg, in six years of war
it became one of the finest fighting divisions in the British and Commonwealth Armies.
The first ever single-volume history of the Division, A Bloody Road Home is a story of trial and error,
failure and success. Told in the words of the officers and soldiers who served, it charts the Division's
formation in Egypt through to the campaigns of Greece, Crete and North Africa. From the battle for
Tobruk to the advance on Tunis; to the onslaught up the spine of Italy from Orsogna via Monte
Cassino, Florence; and to the final encounter at Trieste in 1945, no stone is left unturned.
Acclaimed military historian Christopher Pugsley skilfully examines the Division's operations at a
tactical and leadership level – according both praise and blame – and relays the experiences of
everyday soldiers in their own words, to powerful effect.
A magnificent story of New Zealand endeavour and achievement, and a landmark text in every sense
of the word, A Bloody Road Home is an exacting revision of accepted history and a celebration of the
men who so bravely served.

'Nothing hurts quite like the pain of losing someone you love. But what if I told you it's possible to visit
this incredible place called heaven and hang out with those you've lost? Heaven, or the afterlife, is
right here, at the end of our fingertips. It's all around us, and that's where our loved ones are, all
around us.'
Smile, laugh and cry with Kelvin Cruickshank, celebrity psychic medium and author of bestsellers
Walking in Light, Bridging the Gap, Finding the Path and Inside the Medium, as he sheds light on
what he has learned from spirit about the journey each and every one of us is on. Life and death –
what's it all about? Why do bad things happen to good people? What happens when someone has a
near-death experience? What are the important lessons we're here to learn? Kelvin answers these
questions, and more, as he shows that connecting with spirit can produce a life filled with love, hope
and happiness.
