Nietzsche and The Burbs Lars Iyer

This highly anticipated follow-up to the acclaimed Wittgenstein Jr. follows a young Nietzsche as he experiences the excitements and humiliations of a modern-day secondary school.

When a new student transfers in from private school, his public school peers nickname him Nietzsche thanks to his mysterious charisma.

Nietzsche, like his philosopher namesake, is brilliant but doomed to madness, and his new classmates feel compelled to interpret the deeper meaning behind his arrival. For one, they realise that he should be the front man of their band...

Lars Iyer’s darkly humorous and entirely relatable novel follows its shining (and too creative for their own good) cast through the last few weeks of school, leading up to an important gig – and even more important exams. Will they find the courage to escape the suburbs?

Praise for Lars Iyer: ‘The author has set an alternative path for himself, producing books you can read in an afternoon but think about for a year.’ The Independent ‘Curiously profound, strangely touching, and, best of all, deeply insulting.’ The Observer

Trump-Ukraine Impeachment Inquiry Report & Report of Evidence in the Democrats’ Impeachment Inquiry

House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence A guidebook to the impeachment of President Trump in flip book style, containing both the official reports of the impeachment.

This is the only book to have both the official report of the impeachment investigation by the House Intelligence Committee and the document issued in response issued by House Republicans.

And the package tells half the story: The book is published as a ‘flip’ book - that is, with each cover acting as a front over, one for the Committee report, and one for the Republican report.

Depending on which one you read first, you then flip the book over to read the other.

Witches

The Transformative Power of Women Working Together

Sam George-Allen

Women working together frightens our patriarchal society – Sam George-Allen shows us the power in female collaboration and how it should be celebrated.

Covens. Girl bands. Ballet troupes. Convents. In all times and places, girls and women have come together in communities of vocation, of necessity, of support. And wherever women gather, magic happens. Female farmers change the way we grow our food. Online beauty communities democratise the intricacies of skincare. Teen girls invent phrases that enter the urban lexicon and choose our next pop superstars.

‘Thoroughly researched and thoughtfully written… quietly compelling.’

The Sydney Morning Herald

Patriarchal societies have long been content to uphold men’s and boys’ clubs, while viewing groups that exclude men as sites of rivalry and suspicion. In this deeply personal exploration of what women make together, Sam George-Allen delves into workplaces, industries and social groups to dismantle the cultural myth of female isolation and uncover the inherent revolutionary potential of these groups.

Thoughtful, intimate, and convincing, Witches is a long-overdue celebration of the power and pleasure of working with other women.

Hunger

The Oldest Problem

Martín Caparrós

An up-to-the-minute global investigation of famine and the persistent issues that keep most of the world hungry.

Every year, nine million people die of starvation.

In Hunger, award-winning author Martín Caparrós goes in search of why, in the 21st century, most of the world’s inhabitants still go hungry daily.

In search of the mechanisms that cause this mass starvation and the battles against it, he travels to places where food is scarce – Niger and Northern India, as well as to the cattle grounds of Argentina, the world’s biggest beef exporter, and on to the Chicago Food Bank to learn more about the power of food distributors.

‘Caparrós is an expert, blessed with a unique style of writing.’ Der Spiegel ‘Strange, singular, violent, necessary.

Caparrós’ writing has a memorable pulse.’ El Mundo

Filled with bone-chilling anecdotes and testimonies, Caparrós dissipates the emotional distance we put between us and the victims of hunger. An international bestseller sold in 15 countries and counting, Hunger is both a masterpiece of literary reportage and an eye-opening exposé for the whole world to read.

Shit is Fucked Up and Bullshit History Since the End of History

Malcolm Harris

An insightful and exciting collection of new and selected essays tracing how inequality, student debt, and over-work have come to define our culture and our lives.

Malcolm Harris is one of America’s most exciting young cultural critics, and in this new collection of funny and voice-driven essays he is addressing how, over the short span of only a few years, the western world’s economic situation, political discourse, and future prospects have gotten much worse.

He examines big topics, from inequality, the impossible job market, and predatory student debt to how we sacrificed meaningful privacy so casually we didn’t even notice. And he reminds us to laugh at the absurdity of it all: how has IKEA become so good at defining a ‘normal’ lifestyle, and making us want it when the world is so fucked up?

Praise for Kids These Days: ‘Coherently argued and persuasive…

People are increasingly coming to the conclusion that the game is rigged against them, and mainstream politics must address this or face the consequences.’ New Statesman ‘[Harris] brings a fresh, contrarian eye.’ New York Times Book Review

Assuring us that Marx saw the necessity of a crisis moment just like the one we’re living in, this wideranging look at how much has happened since the supposed End of History, shows a versatile cultural critic at the height of his powers.

Breating new life into the essay, Harris, along with young authors such as Lindy West, Jia Tolentino and Hanif Abdurraqib, speaks to audience that enjoy perceptive, cutting commentaries.

The Gringa

Andrew Altschul Activist or terrorist? The fate of one woman sentenced to life imprisonment unravels in this powerful and stirring novel exploring youthful idealism gone horribly awry.

It is 1998 and Leonora Gelb, a recent Stanford grad, has a world of opportunity open before her. But she is also an activist and a radical thinker, as mobilised as she is studious. Traveling to Peru to work for an NGO, she falls into the orbit of a Marxist guerrilla group, turning the cushy world Gelb has known on its head. After a bloody government raid, Gelb is sentenced to life in a Peruvian prison, a story that breaks headlines back home even as American media outlets are at odds to explain how she has ended up there.

‘An extraordinary novel’ Molly Antopol, author of The Unamericans ‘Utterly immersing, excoriatingly intelligent’ Mark Slouka, author of Nobody’s Son

Ten years later, the task of finding the truth falls to Andres – an American expat on a journalistic assignment to discover the real Leonora. Activist or terrorist? Cold-eyed conspirator or naive puppet?

In this gripping story of guerrilla warfare and selfdiscovery, Altschul crafts a masterful tale of the dangerous consequences of American altruism.

Based on the true story of Lori Berenson, an American activist who was sentenced to live in a Peruvian prison for compliance with guerilla activities, The Gringa is a gripping, literary political thriller.

Eurovision!

A History of Modern Europe Through the World’s Greatest Song Contest

Chris West

NEW EDITION

An entertaining look at the changing face of the Eurovision Song Contest and the political and cultural influences behind its kitsch and glitzy façade.

Do you think the world of the Eurovision Song Contest, with its crazy props, even crazier dancers and crazier still songs has nothing to do with serious European politics? Think again.

The contest has been a mirror for cultural, social and political developments in Europe ever since its inauguration in 1956. It has been a voice of rebellion across the Iron Curtain, the voice of liberation for both sexual and regional minorities and it even once triggered a national revolution.

‘A feast for any Eurovision fan’ Graham Norton ‘This book definitely gets douze points from me.’ Mel Giedroyc ‘Eurovision! will provide you with a succinct, entertaining overview of European life over the past sixty years.’ Times Literary Supplement

Eurovision charts both the history of Europe and the history of the Eurovision Song Contest over the last six decades, and shows how seamlessly they interlink – and what an amazing journey it has been.

With a film based on the contest in the making from Netflix, written by Will Ferrell and starring Ferrell, Rachel McAdams, Pierce Brosnan, Dan Stevens and Demi Lovato, Eurovision’s profile will be raised even higher in 2020.

Featuring new and updated content, including entries on the 2017, 2018 and 2019 contests.

The 100% Solution

A Plan for Solving Climate Change

Solomon Goldstein-Rose

This pithy, accessible and argument-driven book shows the way to 100% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050.

Most experts agree that we need to get to negative greenhouse gas emissions worldwide by the year 2050 in order to stave off the most catastrophic effects of climate change. Yet no proposal is currently on the table that specifically addresses the full scope of solutions. This is why we need Solomon Goldstein-Rose’s book.

‘Goldstein-Rose, a leading Millennial thinker, offers what the world desperately needs: fresh thinking on climate change, with the goal of steering the debate toward solutions that are both technically and politically practicable.’

Steven Pinker, author of Enlightenment Now

Two-thirds of greenhouse gas emissions come from developing countries. Clean options must be cheaper than polluting options if they are to be adopted in countries where cheap energy and agriculture are key drivers in reducing poverty.

The key contribution of industrialized countries to solving climate change is a set of big thinking projects to fund and coordinate research, development, demonstration, and scale-up of the needed technologies and agricultural practices.

Goldstein-Rose lays out a specific framework for action that adds up to fully addressing climate change – it is not too late if action is taken now.

Contains 80 illustrations throughout.

FICTION - APRIL 2020

The Immortals of Tehran Ali Araghi

A sweeping multi-generational debut novel telling the story of a centuries-old curse carrying one family to the brink of the 1979 Iranian revolution.

The Torkashvand family reveres their seemingly immortal patriarch, Agha, the trunk of their widely branching, family tree. When we come to the story, Agha is so old that he spends his days sitting in the family orchard, drinking tea and telling stories to his great-great-great-great grandson Ahmad.

Agha’s favourite story tells of a family curse that seems to shed light on the political turmoil roiling Iran and foretell Ahmad’s fated role in the country’s future.

‘“How many stories have I told you?” Agha asked Ahmad who undid and redid his shirt collar button.

“One hundred? Two? Three?”

Ahmad did not answer. Agha placed the teapot on top of the samovar. “I have a big one for you today. It’s the best of my stories. It’s about cats.”’

There is certainly something plaguing Ahmad’s family. At the age of ten Ahmad witnesses his father’s suicide and consequently loses his voice.

But this is only the beginning of what will become another very long life: of many loves and losses, of ever-tangled family dramas, a doomed career in politics, and of incendiary poetry, all of which converge and catch fire at the centre of the Revolution.

The Immortals of Tehran marks the arrival of an enormously talented new novelist from Iran.

What You Become in Flight Discovering Life After Dance

Ellen O’Connell Whittet

A career-ending injury takes a ballerina from the lofty heights of dance down to the ground where she must learn life anew.

It all begins with ballet.

It was night-time, late winter in California, and I was nineteen years old.

That was the winter I decided to stop eating, and began to be noticed.

After a devastating misstep by her dance partner, Ellen’s life is unalterably changed. Recovered but no longer able to dance, she embarks on a selfdiscovery of life outside of dance while coming to terms with her past.

‘The spark lit between dance and music became my own tiny pilot light, a tight fist of love in my stomach. Before all the other things dancing brought to me—the control and sprains, the hunger and feeling of flight, it brought me that small flame that ignited the person I knew I was born to be.’

She describes how her grandmother and cousin – both dancers – inspired her to take up ballet, how she developed eating disorders in order to retain the ideal body of a ballerina, and how a sexual assault nearly derailed her recovery. By telling not just her own story, but the lives of other dancers who have been forced to leave the stage, Ellen uses her newfound vocation of writing to reflect on survival, happiness, and trust.

The Age of Static

How TV Explains Modern Britain

Phil Harrison

What can we learn about British life from the last two decades of TV? This lively, wide-ranging account looks for answers on the small screen and beyond.

You can tell a lot about British society by its television. More than any other country, Britain still gets a sense of itself from the output of its national broadcasters. So what can we learn from the TV of the last two decades?

Beginning in 2000, this book explores the televisual contours of Britain, via five themed chapters taking in (among others) Big Brother, The Great British Bake Off, The Thick of It, The Apprentice, This is England, Detectorists, Killing Eve and Fleabag.

‘The recent history of British TV can be read as both a struggle with the past – and a series of signposts towards the future. How can modern Britain awaken from its nostalgic small-screen dreams and face the future? Brexit Island feels a long way from Craggy Island, and there’s no obvious route at hand.

Perhaps, to move forwards, we first need to retrace our steps…’

What did Jamie’s School Dinners tell us about our perceptions of the working class? What does our love of Downton Abbey say about the national psyche under duress? And how did Top Gear help to ignite Britain’s culture wars?

In this lively and wide-ranging account of twenty tumultuous years, Phil Harrison asks how we got here – and the role television played in the process.

The Greek Connection

The Life of Elias Demetracopoulos and the Untold Story of Watergate

James H. Barron

The incredible true story of the dissident journalist who went from being a teenage resistance fighter in Nazi-occupied Greece, to a Washington insider who – according to Christopher Hitchens – uncovered the secret behind Watergate.

Elias Demetracopoulos (1928-2016) is perhaps one of the most overlooked figures in 20th century political history. As a thirteen-year-old in occupied Greece he was imprisoned for his daring resistance efforts against the Nazis. When his life was miraculously spared he became a journalist, covering the American Embassy in Greece and gaining access to powerful figures in both governments.

After the military junta seized control of Greece in 1967, he escaped the country and for seven years was the leading advocate in Washington for restoring democracy in Greece. Over the years, his scoops and pursuit of uncomfortable truths put him at odds with the Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, and Carter administrations. He became the object of CIA, FBI, and State Department surveillance and smear campaigns. There were Greek plots to kidnap and eliminate him.

Demetracopolous’s lifetime of standing up for democracy and a free press against powerful special interests has much to teach us about our own era of journalist intimidation, dark money, and international intrigue.

The Kids Are All Left

How Young Voters Will Unite America

David Faris

This crystal ball look into the future of American politics shows how the brewing generational shift to the Left is only the beginning of transformations to come.

A demographic apocalypse is coming for the Republican Party. Its most reliable voters are dying, and Republican elites have been unable to convince young people to vote for them in significant numbers for nearly thirty years. And yet, we find ourselves locked in a political stalemate, and have twice this century sent the loser of the popular vote to the White House.

Praise for It’s Time to Fight Dirty: ‘A bracing polemic ... American democracy could disappear altogether within our own lifetimes.

Every one who wants to avoid that catastrophe must read his book.’

Guardian US

In The Kids Are All Left, political scientist David Faris examines how young voters are poised to end this partisan gridlock. He explores the policy transformations that young Americans will pursue, what this new society will look like, and how the remnants of the GOP could be changed into a more public spirited, reality-based organisation of the centre-right. Faris offers progressives a hopeful vision of the future, but he is realistic about the institutional obstacles that stand between voters and true majority rule. The result is a first look at America after Donald Trump, publishing in the lead up to the Presidential election.

A classic, smart comedy about a meek college professor who achieves one of mankind’s most fervent wishes: the ability to fly.

What do you do if you discover, late one sleepless night, that you can fly? Like, literally fly?

If you’re college professor George Entmen, you try to keep it hush-hush, because he knows it will bring a kind of attention to his life that he dreads, and because – well, it’s embarrassing. Because, you see, George can only fly if he lays on the floor on his stomach and stretches his arms out in front of him like superman - and even then he can only fly about three inches off the ground, and very, very, very slowly.

Praise for The Blindfold Test: ‘Reading The Blindfold Test is a new and radical pleasure.’ Lore Segal

To George, it’s what he calls a ‘useless miracle.’

But to his wife Rebecca it’s this thing her husband can do that’s entertaining at parties. Which is how word seeps out to his insanely competitive friends and colleagues, who become driven to uncover his ‘trick’. Which is how the media hears about it...

Which is how all hell breaks loose.

This is the full and unexpurgated summary report as finally released by the United States government.

The Aeronauts is the true story behind the forthcoming major motion picture about pioneering Victorian balloonist James Glaisher.

Before aeroplanes, the only available method of air transportation was the hot air balloon. Embarking on several death-defying journeys between 1862 and 1866, Glaisher would pack his compass, thermometers and bottles of brandy and head skyward.

Written in his own words, The Aeronauts chronicles Glaisher’s incredible flights and discoveries first hand, and forms the basis of forthcoming major motion picture The Aeronauts, with Eddie Redmayne playing Glaisher opposite Felicity Jones as his companion, Amelia Wren.

Taken from the 1871 publication Travels in the Air, endorsed by the Royal Meteorological Society and with an introduction by Chief Executive Prof. Liz Bentley.
