Butterfly on a Pin Alannah Hill One of Australia’s most successful fashion designers, Alannah Hill bares her soul in this brilliant memoir.

C OV E R

One of five children from a poverty-stricken home in rural Tasmania, Alannah Hill grew up with fear and chaos her constant companions. She left home at age fifteen, her mother’s critical voice embedded in her brain, and began to reinvent herself amid the bright lights of Melbourne.

DRAF T

Melbourne was a place where anything and everything felt possible, where a freckle-faced nobody from Tasmania could dream of becoming a fashion designer. Alannah fell in love, and then couldn’t fall out of love; she teased her hair to cover her fear, and travelled to Tokyo, Paris, New York and London as her career started to take off. She toured with U2 and BB King, acted in the cult movie Dogs in Space , and built a fashion empire with her iconic brand, Alannah Hill. At the height of her success she also became a mother, living an incredible dream.

But it slowly began to unravel, stitch by carefully crafted stitch. With a cancer scare, an acrimonious split with her business partner and the crushing end of her fashion label, Alannah found herself down a dimly lit path, asking all the wrong questions. What right did she have to be successful? To be a mother? To be happy? After the death of her mother, Alannah knew it was time to call a truce with the past. Serious reinvention was required once again, and she armoured herself to revisit a past she’d buried decades earlier.

One of Australia’s most successful fashion designers, Alannah Hill bares her soul in this brilliant memoir. Hilarious and heartbreaking, Butterfly on a Pin is not only the story of her (potholed) road to success, but a fiercely intelligent and funny tale of overcoming adversity and daring to dream. With insight and brutal honesty, Alannah reminds us that what doesn’t kill us doesn’t necessarily make us stronger.

Author Details Alannah Hill was born on an apple orchard in Geeveston, Tasmania and moved to Melbourne when she was a teenager. Her iconic, ornamental style has made her one of Australia’s most well-known fashion designers. After a split with her financial partner Factory X in 2012, Alannah walked away from her eponymous brand. Alannah now designs clothes with her new brand Louise Love, and is an ambassador for the Alannah and Madeline Foundation of Australia.

This book is absolutely the real deal – spectacular prose and a spectacular story. Alannah is not only an extraordinary writer but she has also led an extraordinary life, and this is a no-holds-barred account of it.

The Alannah Hill brand is one of Australian’s most iconic and beloved fashion brands. Started in 1996, with 43 stores across Australia in 2012, it has 171K followers on Facebook and 23K followers on Instagram, and its fans are incredibly loyal. Although Alannah is no longer at the label, it is and will always be associated with her well-known style and larger-than-life personality. We plan to reach her huge fanbase with targeted online marketing and special events.

Kirstie Clements, former Vogue editor, said of Alannah, ‘People connect with a designer rather than just a brand.

Alannah had a conversation with her customers. She wasn’t just following trends.’ Butterfly on a Pin has the same effect – it is impossible not to connect with Alannah as she draws you into her life and her world, and it is the kind of book you can’t stop reading. Fantastic for book clubs, and likely to have a big word of mouth effect.

We're publishing in trade paperback with a jacket to make this book a little bit different and special, drawing on Alannah’s deep creative sensibility and love of all things colourful, romantic and feminine to create a beautiful, evocative, idiosyncratic cover to match the text inside.

Huge, national marketing and publicity on release with interviews, reviews and extracts across national media (radio, print, TV), exclusive TV interview on release.

Alannah to tour nationally with signings and events - please express interest for events.

Advertising campaign across key women's, news and lifestyle sites online and in print media.

Olive Pink Artist, Activist & Gardener Gillian Ward

C OV E R

This beautiful selection of flower paintings by colourful and feisty Australian figure Olive Pink are a striking, if little known, part of her unique historic legacy.

DRAF T

Olive Pink: Artist, Activist & Gardener presents a superb selection of original paintings of the iconic flowers of the Central Australian region, alongside a fascinating biography featuring beautifully reproduced memorabilia of a colourful and unconventional historical Australian figure.

A fiercely independent woman ahead of her time, Olive Pink is best known for her staunch support of the Aboriginal people of Central Australia and for her often feisty encounters with anthropologists, missionaries and local pastoralists. Olive fought hard not only for the rights of the local Arrernte and Warlpiri people, with whom she forged a strong connection, but also to recognise and protect the diversity of the local flora about which she was so passionate.

Olive Pink’s many beautiful paintings express her intimate knowledge and love of the region’s flora: a love that led to her establishing, with the support of Aboriginal gardeners, a flora reserve in Alice Springs, now known as the Olive Pink Botanic Garden.

Gillian worked for many years at the University of Tasmania Library as a librarian and exhibition curator. While there, she curated a beautiful selection of botanical paintings by Olive Pink entitled ‘Miss Pink’s Wildflowers’, which was drawn from a large collection of Olive Pink's paintings held at the library. This exhibition inspired Gillian’s ongoing research on Olive Pink's life and was the impetus for her book Olive PInk: Artist, Activist & Gardener.

Gillian lives in Hobart, Tasmania, only 800 metres from where Olive Pink grew up. She has a keen interest in history, gardens, plants and gardening and is a member of the Australian Garden History Society and the Tasmanian Historical Research Association.

Gillian has a BA (UTAS), a BFA (UTAS) and a Grad Dip Lib (UTAS).

Olive Pink was a fiercely independent and colourful historical figure of the ilk of anthropologist Daisy Bates.

Cheese is big business - and growing in Australia. Witness the profileration of shops exclusively selling cheese, and the popularity of market delis that bring the cheeses of the world to discerning buyers (not to mention supermarkets!). These are buyers who understand that to enjoy the good stuff, they have to pay.

There has not been a significant book that recognises this trend in Australia for some time. And the market is serious; often people who take their cheese (its source, its storage, its quality) as seriously as they do their wine.

Its style will be chatty and informative, with stunning photographs (Alan Benson no less), and recipes that people actually want to cook.

It will also look after people who are interested to try their hand at cheese making at home (without disenfranchising people who don't!).

Nick Haddow has a media profile courtesy of his role in Matthew Evans' Gourmet Farmer series on SBS television, as well as the two books he has collaborated on with Evans and Ross O'Meara (Gourmet Farmer Deli sold well in Europe too).

In 2014, Food Standards Australia New Zealand approved changes to regulations to allow the local production and sale of raw-milk cheese. Well-regarded authority Will Studd said at the time that this would be a game changer for cheese choice in Australia.

James Beard award-winning title for best single subject book (2017).

This is a flexi bound edition of Milk. Made. originally released in 2016.

Marcia Langton: Welcome to Country A Travel Guide to Indigenous Australia Marcia Langton

C OV E R

Tourism Australia statistics show that many overseas tourists, as well as Australians, are keen to learn more about Australia’s first peoples. And while the Indigenous tourism industry continues to grow, no comprehensive travel guide is currently available.

Marcia Langton’s Welcome to Country is a completely new and inclusive guidebook to Indigenous Australia and the Torres Strait Islands. In its pages, respected elder and author Professor Marcia Langton answers questions such as what does ‘country' mean to Indigenous people. A detailed introduction covers topics such as Indigenous languages and customs, history, native title, art and dance, storytelling, and cultural awareness and etiquette for visitors. This is followed by a directory of Indigenous tourism experiences, organised into state and territory sections, covering galleries and festivals, communities that are open to visitors, tours and performances.

This will be one of the most important travel books published this year written by one of Australia's most respected indigenous figures, foreword by Stan Grant.

No travel guide of this kind has been published since Lonely Planet's Aboriginal Australia & the Torres Strait Islands (2001) According to Tourism Australia and the ABS, Aboriginal tourism experiences are highly valued by international visitors. Tourism Council WA CEO Evan Hall said in 2016, 'They are fascinated by ... the world's longest living civilisation, but unfortunately they do sometimes come away disappointed about not having as much exposure to Aboriginal tourism experiences … as what they were hoping for'. This book will bridge that gap for both international visitors and Australians wanting to learn more about this country's original inhabitants.

In 2017 there were 8.7 million international visitors to Australia (up 7.1%), spending a record $41.2 billion (up 6% from previous year).

Marcia Langton is a highly respected figure and is regularly asked to speak or comment in the media on issues related to Indigenous rights and art.

This is an important book to have on your shelf at home, and still small enough to take in the car or pack in your suitcase.

Book to be launched at the 2018 Sydney Writers Festival followed by an East Coast publicity tour, with events in Sydney and Melbourne.

Huge publicity campaign on released with television & radio interviews, coverage in travel newspapers & magazines, digital advertising and book trailer.

Marcia Langton to attend Melbourne and Sydney road shows in February.

Hanoi Pocket Precincts A Pocket Guide to the City's Best Cultural Hangouts, Shops, Bars and Eateries Juliette Elfick

DRAF T

C OV E R

Hanoi is a picturesque mix of the old and the new, with the fading grandeur of its French colonial history juxtaposed against modern architecture. It’s a city where the peaceful music of early-morning tai chi is quickly drowned out by the rush of noisy mopeds; where old-style food vendors sit alongside high-end boutiques and shopping malls; and where a growing restaurant and bar scene mixes traditional Vietnamese cooking with influences from around the world.

Hanoi Pocket Precincts is your curated guide to the city’s best cultural, shopping, eating and drinking experiences. As well as detailed reviews and maps for major attractions through to hidden gems, this guide includes a selection of 'field trips' encouraging you to venture outside the city to Halong Bay, Sapa and Bat Trang.

Slip this guide into your pocket and head off on an adventure, experiencing the coolest places in Hanoi and surrounds like a local.

Author Details Writer and editor Juliette Elfick lived and worked in Hanoi from 2010 to 2013, and has since become a regular visitor. While living in Hanoi, Juliette wrote food and travel articles for local and international publications. An article she wrote for The Telegraph (UK) about the city's bus system is now showcased on Hanoi's official public transport website. Juliette also worked for the Communications department of the United Nations in Hanoi, giving her a unique understanding of the city and an opportunity to understand Vietnamese culture from the locals' perspective. Her love of bun cha (a classic Hanoi dish of grilled pork and noodles) took her all over the city in search of the best version of this local street food, and along the way she discovered much, much more.

50 Queer Music Icons Who Changed the World A celebration of LGBTQ+ Legends Will Larnach-Jones A stylishly presented celebration of the world's best-loved queer musicians.

Featuring beautifully illustrated portraits and profiles, 50 Queer Musicians Who Changed the World is a tribute to queer ground breakers who changed the face of music and popular culture.

LGBTQ+ musicians have been pushing for change since the 1920s, with singers such as Bessie Smith crooning about same-sex liaisons almost 100 years ago – long before Frankie Goes to Hollywood were telling everyone to ‘Relax’. This book is a celebration of artists who became icons, and broke new ground through song. From legendary figures such as Freddie Mercury, Little Richard and George Michael, to bands like Bronski Beat, The Scissor Sisters, The XX and The Pet Shop Boys, and more contemporary figures including Frank Ocean, Beth Ditto and Rufus Wainwright, these are the people who made an unforgettable impact.

Change Your Mind 57 Ways to Unlock Your Creative Self Rod Judkins 57 tips on how to become more creative at work, at home and at play.

Everyone wants to be more creative. Being creative makes life more fun and interesting. But many believe the common misconception that creativity is something you are born with and others can only envy.

In Change Your Mind, Rod Judkins reveals that ‘creative’ people are no more creative than the rest of us. Rather, their gift is that they believe they are creative, and because of this, they are. Many of these people lack traditional artistic abilities (Francis Bacon couldn’t draw, so he didn’t; Andy Warhol couldn’t paint, so he didn’t) but that doesn’t stop them. This self-belief accounts for 90 per cent of their success. Creativity is a skill that everyone can learn and benefit from, whether you’re trying to start your own business, write music, come up with new ideas at work or just change your way of looking at the world.

The World Cup in 100 Objects Iain Spragg The World Cup in 100 Objects tells the almost 90-year history of the world's most celebrated sporting event from a unique perspective and proudly boasts the most fascinating collection of artefacts from FIFA World Cup history. Every object tells a rich and fascinating story from one of the actual balls used in the very first FIFA World Cup final (the two teams could not agree on the match ball so supplied a ball to use in each half) and the collar of Pickles the dog, who found the stolen FIFA World Cup trophy in 1966, to Bobby Moore's shirt that he was photographed giving to Pele in the 1970 finals, and the shirt Diego Maradona wore when he scored his infamous “Hand of God” goal in 1986. Richly illustrated, authoritatively researched and expertly compiled, The World Cup in 100 Objects is produced in association with the National Football Museum (the world's leading football museum) and the official FIFA Collection. With text written by respected footballer authority Iain Spragg, this is the FIFA World Cup as never before.

In a world where we are tempted by food on every street corner, on every billboard and all over our social media, is it any wonder so many of us struggle with weight loss and sticking to diets? What if we started thinking about the psychology of dieting and eating, rather than just the food on our plates?

The Shrinkology premise is super-simple: in order to achieve lasting weight loss, you need to start addressing your emotional issues with food, rather than simply going after every fad diet. Offering an in-depth psychological quiz which will reveal which type of eater you are, and tailored life and food hacks for each type, this is the last diet book you will ever need.

It’s the humble Eastern Mediterranean mezze dish that stole our hearts – who’d have thought a little bowl of smashed up chickpeas could taste like magic? As a snack it is far too easy to get through a whole tub if left alone with a familysized bag of crisps. It has become an essential item for any modern well-stocked fridge, whether served as a dip with plain crackers or vegetable crudités, slathered on bread to give oomph to kebabs or sandwiches, or offered as part of a main meal in its own right. Homemade hummus is superior to store-bought in many ways: it is less sour, more intense in fresh flavours and inexpensive to put together. Author Dunja Gulin shares her tips and tricks for making perfect homemade hummus, so that you can get the flavour balance and texture just right every time. The classic combination is usually chickpeas, lemon juice, garlic and tahini – but this basic recipe is so versatile that it gratefully absorbs any flavour you can throw at it.

Chapters include Chickpea-Based Hummus recipes such as Onion Jam Hummus and Fresh Herb Hummus. Bean and Lentil-Based Hummus features Spicy Red Lentil Hummus and an Indonesian style Hummus. The Veggie-Based selection includes a Baked Aubergine variety as well as a Sweet Potato and Coconut. Raw Hummus features a Cashew and Avocado and a Green Pea and Basil. There is a chapter of Dippers with Chapatis, Pitta Breads and Sesame Grissini.

A section on Hummus Meals includes Chunky Hummus Burgers, Hummus Pasta Sauce and Veggies Baked in Hummus Batter. Finally, try some Sweet Hummus Brownies or Ice Cream Cups in the daring Desserts section.

Author Details For almost a decade Dunja Gulin has worked as a cooking teacher and chef – both on retreats and for private clients – and contributed to several healthy cookbooks. She also runs her own fermented food workshops. Dunja is the author of a popular book on vegan breakfast published in her native Croatia, and of The Vegan Baker, Raw Food Kitchen, The Vegan Pantry and Falafel Forever.

Key Information • • •

In the last decade, chefs such as Ottolenghi and Claudia Roden have popularised Middle Eastern foods.

Hummus now considered a modern fridge staple.

Filling, delicious and yet healthy foodstuff that often happens to be vegan, gluten and dairy-free.

Bruce Springsteen 1973-1986 From Born to Run to Born in the USA David Gahr An unprecedented look at a very young Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, from the group’s creation and early New Jersey days to their meteoric rise and seminal Born in the USA tour, in photographs almost all not previously published.

David Gahr (1922–2008) was tapped by Columbia Records designer John Berg to shoot cover art for Bruce Springsteen’s second album, The Wild, the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle . Gahr’s earliest photographs of the musician showcase a youthful Springsteen, not even aged twenty-three, in Asbury Park, New Jersey, on the eve of a career breakthrough. Gahr befriended the rising star, and over a span of approximately ten years he photographed Springsteen, both on- and offstage. Rare captures include Springsteen recording music, performing at the cramped venue Bottom Line weeks before the release of his seminal 1975 album Born to Run , and playing to legions of fans during his Born in the USA tour. Bruce Springsteen 1973–1986 is an unprecedented look back at Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band on their path to becoming rock legends.

Author Details David Gahr (September 18, 1922-May 25, 2008) was an American photographer. He was one of the pre-eminent photographers of American folk, blues, jazz and rock musicians of the 1960s and beyond. Chris Murray is a writer and owns Govinda Gallery.

Key Information •

Although a celebrated rock photographer, David Gahr (1922-2008) never published a book. Gahr photographed countless musicians during his fifty-year career, including Pete Seeger, Phil Spector, John Lennon, Patti Smith, Miles Davis, and Johnny Cash, to name only a few. Gahr's obituary in The New York Times stated: "[Gahr] turned his back on a promising career as a scholar to take pictures and listen to music and who as a result landed among the pre-eminent photographers of American folk, blues, jazz and rock musicians of the 1960s and beyond." This would be his first published book.

Bruce Springsteen's appeal has not waned over the decades. To the contrary, his concerts are considered to be the greatest live show in modern music history. His recent autobiography, Born To Run, was published in September 2016 and immediately became a New York Times bestseller, selling more than 117,000 copies in the first week alone.

Bruce Springsteen has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Nearly all the work in the book has never before been published, and most has never before been seen.

Is there a reason sloths are always smiling? Yes! They’ve mastered the art of living slow in a world whose pace is making everyone crazy. Along with being the “it” animal – “sloths are the new kittens” (Washington Post)—the sloth clearly has much to teach us about how to live.

Combining the irresistible cuteness of sloths with words of wisdom about slowing down, Life in the Sloth Lane is a mindfulness book like no other. On spread after spread we see heart-tugging, full-colour images of sloths—grown-ups and babies, both two-toed and threetoed, draped in trees, lying on hammocks, eating, hugging, nuzzling, playing – paired with inspiration on the joy of living slow, including quotes from Thoreau and Emily Dickinson, Paulo Coehlo and Elizabeth Gilbert.

Written by Lucy Cooke, author of the sellout Sloths calendar and the "Steven Spielberg of sloth filmmaking" (The Atlantic), Life in the Sloth Lane is the perfect gift for anyone who wants to step out of the fast lane. Or – hint, hint – needs to.
