Monet: The Restless Vision
A magnificent new biography of the founder of Impressionism
In the course of a long and exceptionally creative life, Claude Monet revolutionized painting and made some of the most iconic images in western art. Misunderstood and mocked at the beginning of his career, he risked everything to pursue his original vision. Although close to starvation when he invented impressionism on the banks of the Seine in the 1860s-70s, in the following decades he emerged as the powerful leader of the new painting in Paris at one of its most exciting cultural moments. His symphonic series Haystacks, Poplars, and Rouen Cathedral brought wealth and renown. Then he withdrew to paint only the pond in his garden. The late Water Lilies, ignored during his lifetime, are now celebrated as pioneers of twentieth century modernism.
Behind this great and famous artist is a volatile, voracious, nervous yet reckless man, largely unknown. Jackie Wullschläger’s enthralling biography, based on thousands of never-before translated letters and unpublished sources, is the first account of Monet’s turbulent private life and how it determined his expressive, sensuous, sensational painting. He was as obsessional in his love affairs as in his love of nature, and changed his art decisively three times when the woman at the centre of his life changed. Enduring devastating bereavements, he pushed the frontier of painting inward, to evoke memory and the passing of time. His work also responded intensely to outside cataclysms – the Dreyfus Affair, the First World War. Prime Minister Georges Clemenceau was his closest friend. Rich intellectual currents connected him to writers from Zola to Proust; affection and rivalry to Renoir, Pissarro and Manet.
Monet said he was driven ‘wild with the need to put down what I experience’. This rich and moving biography immerses us in that passionate experience, transforming our understanding of the man, his paintings and the fullness of his achievement.

Still a Bit of Snap in the Celery: or K.B.O. *Keep Buggering On
From the bestselling author of A Shed of One’s Own, a very funny memoir about being 60.
Marcus Berkmann’s funny, instantly recognisable description of middle-age in A Shed of One’s Own struck a chord and turned it into a bestseller. Now he realises he has entered a new age category: the Young-Old.
Well, the body continues to provide challenges (every group meeting seems to begin the dreaded ‘organ recital’), and the bank balance may not be doing too well either – but it’s certainly not all doom and gloom. You have come to terms with your deficiencies and eccentricities (although your partner may not); your Fear of Missing Out has become Joy at Staying In; you have embraced the notion of the Power Nap – and though you’re not going to embark on a course of ‘mindfulness’ you nevertheless recognise if living in the moment also includes walking to the local for a pint with an old friend then you’ll sign up for it after all…
You could call it ‘beerfulness’.
‘Berkmann is a fine observer of decline. He says what other men would rather not think about, let alone discuss. Another ten years pottering around in his shed and he’ll have cracked it’ Sunday Times

Stocking Stuffer: M/M Mpreg Christmas Romance
Here comes Santa Claus…
When my heater goes out, it’s the last straw. With my car already in the shop, my hours getting cut, and Christmas around the corner, I officially give up. It’s time to ask my parents if I can move home. It isn’t the failing at adulting that gets me down, it’s returning to pack life. I left it for a reason; my mate wasn’t there. Heading back with my tail between my legs will pretty much guarantee I’ll spend my life alone.
But just as I’m about to call my folks, I see an ad for someone to play Santa Claus, one that specifically asks for all builds and ages. Sure, I’m only thirty, and sure, I have a solid six-pack, but good on them for realizing that make-up and pillows can do wonders during cosplay. Only, when I arrive at the interview, I quickly discover that they aren’t looking for a mall Kris Kringle. No. That would be too easy. They’re looking for exotic Santas… yeah, that kind. I’m about to leave, until I discover how much they want to pay me. Maybe, just maybe, I can be a naughty St. Nicholas for a bit.
Stocking Stuffer is a sweet with knotty heat MM Mpreg Christmas romance from the popular co-writing duo of Lorelei M. Hart and Colbie Dunbar. It features a wolf down on his luck, the human who drags his friend to one of the wolf’s “shows”, some really bad dancing, Christmas magic, tree decorating, cookies, cocoa, snowy fun, true love, fated mates, a guaranteed happy ever after, and the best present of all… an adorable baby.

Stop Them Dead: New crimes, new villains, Roy Grace returns…
‘Ruthlessly efficient, entertainment. Pedigree fun’ – The Times
Discover the darkness that lurks around every corner in the latest instalment of the award-winning Grace series, now a major ITV series.
A ruthless crime. A race against time.
In the dead of night, a farmer hears a suspicious noise. It’s everyone’s worst nightmare: a break-in. When he confronts the intruders, he has no idea that just minutes later he will be left lying in a pool of blood. But the chilling truth lies not in the act itself, but what the perpetrators were willing to kill for.
At the scene of the crime, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace senses something amiss. This is no mere botched robbery; it’s the tip of the iceberg of a nationwide crime epidemic. Ruthless gangs, operating with military precision, have discovered a new black market flourishing in the shadows – an unthinkable source of wealth even more profitable than drugs.
Grace’s investigation into this deadly trade pits him against some of the most ruthless people he has ever encountered; people who will kill anyone who gets in their way, because where there is greed, there is murder.
The clock is ticking, and the stakes have never been higher. Out of his element, and out of time, can Roy Grace put a stop to these criminal masterminds before more innocent lives are lost?

Stories of the Prophets
Stories of the Prophets
Compiled by Imam Imaduddin Abul-Fida Ismail Ibn Kathir
Translation by Rashad Ahmad AzamiIn this book, the stories of the prophets have been compiled from ‘Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah’ (The Beginning and the End) which is a great work of the famous Muslim exegete and historian Ibn Kathir and has a prominent place in the Islamic literature. The stories of the prophets and all the events in their lives have been supported by the Qur’anic Verses and the Sunnah (traditions) of the Prophet (S). Wherever it was necessary, other sources have also been reported for the sake of historical accounts, but on such places a comparative study has been made to prove the authenticity of the sources. Ibn Kathir has reproduced the views and interpretations of all the great exegetes of the Qur’an of his time. The systemic narratives of the Stories of the Prophets have been written in chronological order which renders a historical style to the book.
Allah the Most Exalted says in the Qur’an:
“We are relating unto you the most beautiful of stories in that what We have revealed to you from the Qur’an, though before it you were from among those who were not aware of them.” (12:3)
“We have indeed sent aforetime Messengers before you, of them there are some whose stories We have related to you, and whose stories We have not related to you…” (40:78)
“We relate to you the important news of their story in truth…” (18:13)
“And all that We relate to you of these stories of the Messengers, We strengthen with them your heart. Through them there come to you the truth as well as admonition and reminder to all those who believe.” (11:120)
“There is, indeed, in their stories lessons for people endowed with understanding. It is not any invented tale, but a confirmation of what went before it, and a detailed exposition of all things, and a guide and a mercy to the people who believe.” (12:111)
“…so relate the stories, perhaps they may reflect.” (7:176)Read more

Storynomics: Story Driven Marketing in the Post-Advertising World
Storynomics – Story-Driven Marketing in the Post-Advertising World is a brilliant book that’s destined to send shockwaves through the worlds of marketing and branding. Drawing on the experiences gained with his Storynomics seminars, Robert McKee – author of Story: Substance, Structure, Style and the Principles of Screenwriting and Dialogue: The Art of Verbal Action for Page, Stage and Screen – has teamed up with Tom Gerace to produce a work that is at once imaginative, innovative and inspirational. There has been a major change in the way brands connect with consumers. In the past, brand managers and chief marketing executives would find stories people loved and then interrupt their telling with advertisements. Today’s consumers have tired of the ads and are blocking, skipping or avoiding them at unprecedented rates. The consequences are that marketing professionals are finding it harder and harder to reach their customers. Some business leaders have recognised that storytelling is the future of marketing, and to succeed in an increasingly ad-free world, they must place `story’ at the centre of their strategies. There is still some misunderstanding about story and how it can be used effectively. Robert McKee created the Storynomics seminars to show business leaders how to apply storytelling to their businesses, to drive revenue, margins and brand loyalty. In their new book, McKee and Gerace bring a whole new meaning to marketing, to displace old theories and practices with story-driven messages. Storynomics, the book, is essential reading for all serious professionals.Read more
