Following his Forward-prize shortlisted Rotten Days in Late Summer, Ralf Webbs breathtaking second poetry collection summons the West Country of his youth, a place where the real and the magical, folklore and modernity, life and death, collideRalf Webb is an ethnographer of the present. He is interested in everyday life in the extreme Peter GizziHighway Cottage weaves the story of a strange homecoming. A young poet travels to the heart of the English countryside back to the West Country village where he grew up. Descending into the valley where the small riverside community still resides, he finds himself within a dreamlike landscape, peopled by uncanny figures: drone operators and hunters; half-familiar friends; local historians, and braying councillors trying desperately to oust a community of Travellers. Hovering between reality and folklore, the locale is at once idyllic and in decay; the visitor is both unsettled and soothed by it. Slowly, we start to sense that both villagers and poet might be under threat not just from the future, but from the past.This book-length sequence of poems represents a ground-breaking artistic achievement by acclaimed poet Ralf Webb. Blending the eerie musicality of childrens rhymes with echoes of traditional balladry and free verse, the collection swells to an extraordinary chorus. With great clarity and affection, but not a trace of sentimentality, Webb conjures a precise vision of a rural community, surfacing the deep and urgent tensions personal, political, and environmental that run through Britain today. The result is a unique portrait of contemporary country life, enchanting and unnerving in equal measure.

As he starts to discover the truth in both these investigations, Jack comes to understand that nothing in this world is as black and white as it seems.

The streets are teeming as thousands of pilgrims flood in for the Holy Jubilee, but behind the gilded façade of the Vatican, power is unravelling.

But the new world she was exploring crumbled around her when she was assaulted at a party by a high-profile figure.Jenny reported this crime to the police when she became aware of other allegations of violence against The Famous Man. Shortly after doing so, details of what she had experienced were printed in a tabloid newspaper.Jenny trained as a journalist herself to try to find out how this happened. In the aftermath of devastation, she picked up the pieces and fought back against the systems that caused her harm. Her investigation helped expose the jaw-dropping press abuse and police corruption we now call the phone-hacking scandal.Now training as a lawyer, Jenny is still working to fight for justice in a system that so horrifically fails its victims.Dont Let it Break You, Honey is a reckoning: a personal, fiercely compelling account of power - who holds it, who wields it, who is silenced in the process. It asks urgent questions about fame, justice, and the institutions we have no choice but to trust, while offering something even more profound: hope.Because this is, above all, a story about resilience. About finding your voice when the world wants to silence you. And refusing to let them win.

Whats more, reading positive birth stories during pregnancy can help women to feel calm, confident and prepared, and so increase the chances that theyll have an experience theyll look back on positively.Collected here by doula and hypnobirthing coach Claire Fulton are thirty true stories from a diverse group of ordinary people, representing a wide array of experiences. There are hospital births and home births; inductions, caesareans and vaginal deliveries. Things dont always go quite to plan, and there are moments of surprise, frustration and unexpected comedy along the way, but all of the stories deliver comfort, reassurance and a happy ending.

A great read; Im so pleased it exists in the world. Chris van Tulleken Unpacking the truth about whats on your plate and what its doing to your health Everyone is talking about ultra-processed food (UPF) and its impact on our health but what about women? Is this very modern way of eating having a unique and specific impact on the female body? Are these industrially produced food-like items in plastic packets that many of us consume particularly damaging to womens health? In Ultra-Processed Women, acclaimed journalist and womens health advocate Milli Hill uncovers the shocking truth. From period pain and weight gain to depression, hormone imbalances, autoimmune conditions and even Alzheimers, Hill reveals cutting-edge research into the hidden dangers that lurk in your daily food choices. But this is not just a book about food. Ultra-Processed Women also explores the way the modern food industry has exploited women in their advertising for decades and uncovers the damage being wrought not only on our bodies but on the environment and on our own ability to connect with each other through the fundamentally human experience of cooking and eating. This isnt just a wake-up call its a battle cry. Written in Hills trademark down-to-earth style, Ultra-Processed Women will help you understand the issues and develop a clear course of action, arming you with tools and practical steps to cut through the confusion, break free from the damaging effects of UPFs, and reclaim your health without guilt or deprivation. Changing the way we eat, Hill argues, is a radical act of resistance to an ultra-processed world. Its time to take back control. Your body, your choices, your future.Readers are raving:Ultra Processed Women is an important and brilliantly readable addition to the growing literature on ultra-processed food.

Beautifully wrought and staggeringly urgent , Fragile Minds documents Bella Jacksons time as a trainee mental health nurse, and the devastation and hope she encountered in winding corridors and behind locked doors."An extraordinary book, written with insight and sensitivity about a hidden world that needs attention. Such beautiful writing."CHERRY HEALEY "Absolutely Fascinating."JANE GARVEY, Times RadioA masterpiece. Pulls the curtain back on how mental health is treated now.CAT SIMS, author of The Mental Load DiariesThere is a narrative weve become comfortable with: Mental health services are underfunded and understaffed. But that is only half the story. The other half is messy and confronting; uncomfortable enough to make us look sharply away.It is the story of the staff who believed they could make a difference, but were worn down by morally ambiguous tasks, impossible workloads and a systemic resistance to change. It is the story of the patients who are failed by hastily made diagnoses, overreliance on medication, coercion, stigma and inconsistency of care, and of the inspiring individuals struggling for justice and revolution.With compassion and care Bella introduces us to a vivid cast of staff and patients, prompting us to look closer, ask questions and demand more for them."This book will rock your complacency towards how we understand and treat mental health..A must read for anyone concerned about our whole societys wellbeing."TESSA McWATT, author of Shame On Me"Sensitive and powerful. Bella Jackson tells incredible human stories with wisdom and insight. This is a very compassionate book. One that opens up a righteous anger at a system thats failing."PROFESSOR SIMUKAI CHIGUDU author of upcoming Chasing Freedom

Zak Graham is usually pretty good at manipulating life so that everything works out in his favour. Sure, his parents kicked him out when he dropped out of Cathedral U. But thanks to his aunt, hes been managing one of the citys most popular nightclubs. The Beefsteak. It was the perfect set up. And dealing with stupid employees was a small price to pay for the partying, the girls, and being able to wake up whenever he wantedUntil those employees started dying. But Zak doesnt want to think about that. He doesnt want to think about the dead girls. And he especially doesnt want to think about the terrible nightmares hes been having. Or the thing thats been lurking under his bed Or how shaky hes starting to feel from all the stress.When his world begins to fall down around him, however, Zak has to admit that the solution he came up with probably wasnt the way a sane person would have handled it. And now hes trapped in something more sinister than even the depths of his shadowy mind could conjure.
