She is a princess of Spain. He promises her a crown.
But when love fades and ambition rises, can a queen fight for her truth and her daughter’s future?Catherine of Aragon survives years of poverty as a forgotten widow before Henry VIII makes her his queen. She stands beside him as wife, partner, and trusted advisor. She gives him loyalty. She gives him devotion. She gives him a daughter, Princess Mary.
But Henry wants a son.
And he desperately wants Anne Boleyn.When the king demands an annulment – claiming their marriage was never valid – Catherine faces an impossible choice: accept a comfortable exile and declare her daughter illegitimate, or fight for the truth no matter the cost.
Stripped of her title, separated from Mary, and sent away from court, Catherine refuses to surrender. She is Henry’s true wife. Mary is England’s rightful heir. No king, no mistress, and no amount of suffering will make her say otherwise.
From the glittering halls of Henry’s VIII’s early court to the lonely chambers of crumbling castles, this is the story of a woman who loses everything but never loses herself.
A mother’s love. A queen’s dignity. A faith that sustains her when everything else is taken.
Perfect for fans of historical fiction, this Tudor novella is a powerful portrait of courage, conviction, and a woman who refused to be erased from history. Though this book can be read as a standalone, it is part of a series of strong Tudor women and is meant to be a short escape.

The Queen Who Walked Away: A Tudor Tale Of Anne Of Cleves (Women Of The Tudor Court Book 3)
She crossed the sea to become Henry VIII’s queen. Instead, she became something far more dangerous: a woman who refused to die for a king.
When Anne of Cleves arrives in England to marry the notorious Henry VIII, she expects duty, obedience, and a crown. What she does not expect is the king’s immediate revulsion toward her – or the deadly atmosphere of the Tudor court, where queens who fail are discarded, disgraced, or destroyed.
Surrounded by whispers of execution and haunted by the fates of the women who came before her, Anne quickly understands the peril she faces. To fight for the crown is to risk her life. To surrender it may cost her everything she was raised to believe she must be.
In a court where survival is never accidental, Anne of Cleves makes an unthinkable choice: she agrees to her own annulment. But this is not defeat. It is strategy. By becoming the king’s “beloved sister,” Anne secures wealth, independence, and the one thing no other wife of Henry VIII achieved – her freedom.
From the treacherous splendor of the Tudor court to the quiet power of a life reclaimed, this intimate historical novel restores the voice of a woman history dismissed as merely “lucky.” Anne of Cleves was not lucky. She was brilliant. And she won by knowing when to walk away.
Perfect for readers who love Tudor historical fiction, strong heroines, and clean, character-driven stories about women who survived history on their own terms. Meant to be a short escape, this book is part of a series, but can be read as a standalone.

The Lakeside Chalet – Complete Series : An uplifting escape filled with second chances, friendship, and finding home
A chalet in bloom. A heart on the mend. And a new beginning she never planned.When London yoga instructor Lucy inherits a grand lakeside chalet in a small Alpine town, she’s certain of one thing: this springtime escape is not the solution to her broken heart. But as wildflowers bloom along the glass-clear lake and the mountains awaken from winter, Lucy begins to feel something she hasn’t felt in a long time — possibility.
Determined to turn the ageing chalet into a boutique yoga retreat, Lucy quickly discovers that life in this beautiful Alpine town — where Europe’s elite hide from the spotlight — isn’t as picture-perfect as it first appears. Clearly, not everyone is pleased to see an outsider claim such a prominent place by the lake.
But as resistance mounts, Lucy also finds a handful of friends who offer humour and support when she needs it most. Slowly, a fragile sense of belonging begins to form, even as old tensions, buried secrets, and one infuriatingly intriguing hotel owner threaten to pull her back into patterns she thought she’d left behind.
As the days grow longer and the chalet fills with life, Lucy must decide whether she’s ready to stop running — and whether this place by the lake could finally feel like home.
Now available in English after becoming a bestseller in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria, The Lakeside Chalet box set is a heart-warming women’s fiction escape about healing, belonging, and the quiet courage it takes to begin again.
Perfect for readers who love cosy settings, emotional depth, found family, and slow-burn romance.

Geheimnisse auf dem Maskenball: Secrets and Scrabble 3 (Secrets and Scrabble (Deutsche Sprache)) (German Edition)
Liebe liegt in der Luft – ebenso wie Mord!Ellery Page, angehender Drehbuchautor, amtierender Scrabble-Champion und manchmal etwas naiver Besitzer des Krimi-Buchladens Crow’s Nest, ist geschmeichelt und zugleich verdutzt, als er zum jährlichen Marodeur Maskenball eingeladen wird, dem größten gesellschaftlichen Ereignis der Saison in dem malerischen Küstenstädtchen Pirate’s Cove, Rhode Island.
Dabei kennt Ellery Mrs. Bloodworth-Ainsley nicht einmal und wie sich herausstellt, kennt Mrs. Bloodworth-Ainsley Ellery ebenso wenig. Aber Marguerites Sohn Julian will Ellery unbedingt kennenlernen. Der gut aussehende, reiche und charmante Krimifan Julian hat allerdings bisher nicht den Mut aufgebracht, Ellery um ein Date zu bitten.
Da seine Beziehung mit Polizeichef Jack Carson auf Eis zu liegen scheint, ist Ellery für die schmeichelhafte Aufmerksamkeit des begehrten Junggesellen dankbar. Doch jegliche Hoffnung auf eine Romanze zerläuft im Sand, als Julian beschuldigt wird, während der jährlichen Geisterjagd auf dem alten Friedhof den unsympathischen zweiten Ehemann seiner Mutter ermordet zu haben.

The Case of the Shipwreck Locket: The Parker Sisters & the Talking Bunny
The Case of the Shipwreck LocketWhen a mysterious fire threatens to destroy The Curious Cove antique shop, Lily discovers that some secrets are worth killing for—even after 170 years.
Three days after an electrical fire nearly destroys her beloved antique shop, Lily finds a tarnished locket hidden among the salvaged jewelry. The moment her fingers close around it, Sir Nibbles—her psychic rabbit companion—erupts into terrified warnings about death, drowning, and souls trapped beneath the waves.
The locket bears intricate engravings of sailing ships and carries the weight of maritime legend. According to local historian Harold Fairfield, this is the Beatrice’s Heart, supposedly lost when Captain Penistone’s ship went down in 1847, taking his bride and all hands with it. But if the locket went down with the ship, how did it survive in Lily’s shop?
When Harold reveals that the fire was deliberately set, the sisters realize someone was willing to commit arson to find this particular piece of jewelry. Their investigation uncovers a conspiracy involving insurance fraud, murder, and some of Seafern Cove’s most prominent founding families—secrets that powerful people will kill to protect.
With the help of Rose’s practical wisdom, Harold’s academic expertise, and Sir Nibbles’s supernatural insights, Lily must decode the locket’s true significance before the mysterious arsonist strikes again. But when they finally open the antique clasp, they discover evidence of crimes that stretch back centuries and threaten to topple the carefully constructed reputations of half the town.
In Seafern Cove, the past never stays buried for long—and some treasures are worth more than their weight in gold, secrets, and blood.

Traversal (Audio Download): Maria Popova, Natascha McElhone, Canongate Books: Amazon.co.uk: Audible Books & Originals
In Traversal, Maria Popova traverses the border between life and death, chance and choice, chemistry and consciousness: what makes a body a person? What makes a planet a world? How do we safeguard our love of truth from our lust for power? What slakes our longings and what redeems our losses?
Popova illuminates our various instruments of reckoning with these questions – our telescopes and our treatises, our postulates and our poems – through the intertwined lives, loves and legacies of visionaries both celebrated and sidelined by history, people born into the margins of their time and place who lived to write the future: Mary Shelley, Walt Whitman, Frederick Douglass, Fanny Wright. Woven throughout their stories are other threads – the decoding of the insulin molecule, the invention of the bicycle, how nature creates blue – which come together to create a rich tapestry of life’s meaning; exploring what it is that makes life alive and worth living.
By turns epic and intimate, Traversal explores the universe between cells and souls to reveal the world, and our lives, in a dazzling new

My Year in Paris with Gertrude Stein: A Fiction
‘In one short and sly book after another, [Levy] writes about characters navigating swerves of history and sexuality, and the social and personal rootlessness that accompanies both’ Atlantic
Who was Gertrude Stein?
Avant-garde American poet and art collector who made her home in Paris, godmother of modernism, queer icon, friend to Picasso and Hemingway, self-declared genius ― a writer who has baffled readers and critics for a century.
And why does she matter?
The narrator of Deborah Levy’s latest, dazzling fiction has gone to Paris to find out. There she meets Eva with the blinding gaze, an artist in a long-distance marriage, and Fanny, a sexually adventurous financier; together they cook, walk, read and argue late into the nights.
As Paris sweeps her along in its ceaseless flow, she thinks – about what we have to lose to become modern, navigating anxiety, living with uncertainty, angry fathers, making a new life in another country, art and language – how all these things looked to Gertrude Stein in the early days of the twentieth century, and how they look to her and her friends in the early twenty-first.
This is a book about how we put ourselves together― an exhilarating, witty, cosmopolitan meditation on the pleasures and challenges of friendship, desire and living with other people. But it is also crashes through genre to create an inspired portrait of Stein herself: a writer who experimented fearlessly with a new way of living and who wrestled herself free from the nineteenth century to invent a brand-new way of looking at the world.

Tears from the Mother of the Sun: A Secret History of the World
Esoteric legends that track history across multiple continents and planes of existence• Synthesizes ancient mythologies across time, space, and cultures to resacralize the human experience
• Written as a novella interspersed with metered quatrains in the tradition of medieval Persian belles-lettres
• Includes full-color paintings of key figures and motifs, including Sita, Yggdrasil, the Minotaur, Quetzalcoatl, and the Three Marys
In this globe-spanning chronicle, Pir Zia Inayat Khan, leader of the Inayatiyya, sets forth an astonishing sequence of legends revealing little-known connections between ancient cultures and spiritual lineages.
Framed as a dialogue between the Iranianepic poet Firdausi and his tutelary daimon, this novella follows the tradition of medieval Persian belles-lettres in which prose passages are punctuated with metered verses. The daimon reveals to the hitherto depressed poet the inner history of the world as reflected in the missions of a succession of sages moving through Earth’s lands and ages. Readers will learn of the creation of the universe, the war of the angels and the jinns, the exile of Adam and Eve, and the deeds of Melchizedek and Enoch. They will also explore the rise of the Nephilim, the advent of ancient civilizations, the origins of the Abrahamic faiths, and the history of the Grail and Emerald Tablet. Beautiful paintings by Amruta Patil bring the legends to life.
The cumulative effect of the traditions synthesized here is a resacralization of the human experience across time, space, and cultures, achieved through an unexpected marriage of myth and history.

Psychological Essays
Alfred Richard Orage (1873-1934) was born in Dacre, West Riding, Yorkshire, and was a schoolteacher in Leeds for twelve years, during which time he helped found the Leeds Arts Club. He moved to London in 1906, where he worked as editor of The New Age: A Weekly Review of Politics, Literature and Art, to which many well-known writers and intellectuals contributed. He was involved in socialism for a time, and was a supporter of the social credit system of C.H. Douglas. During the years 1922 to 1930, Orage worked with G.I. Gurdjieff in France and the United States, after which he returned to England, where he became editor of The New English Weekly. He died suddenly during the early morning of 6th November, 1934, having given a radio talk for the B.B.C. on Social Credit the evening before, apparently in good health.Orage wrote wrote fifteen short Psychological Essays in the 1920s. They encompass such subjects as thought power and mental development, dealing with dark moods, the relationship between thought, feeling and body, the importance of active curiosity, observation, and so on. Although these can be read as stand-alone essays, they are very much connected with each other in the sequence given, and in their totality give a kind of recipe for living life to the full.

Ruin & Redemption (Sons of Mull Book 2)
He is her ruin … but she is his redemption. A talented weaver with ambitions. A reckless warrior on a path of destruction. A love woven from scandal.
Fiona has spent years perfecting her craft as a weaver. When she’s commissioned to create a series of tapestries for Dounarwyse Castle on the Isle of Mull, it’s her chance to prove herself—and escape the constraints of her overbearing family forever.
But from the moment she arrives, the laird’s wild eldest son sets his sights on her.
Ailean returns from war a hero—but without the lands or purpose to match his reputation. Restless and reckless, he’s a man careening toward self-destruction. Then he meets Fiona: sharp-tongued, ambitious, and utterly captivating. She’s a challenge he can’t resist, a distraction he desperately needs.
Fiona knows getting involved with Ailean would destroy everything she’s worked for. Her craft, her independence, her hard-won freedom. All of it hangs in the balance.
But Ailean is used to taking what he wants. And when their desire finally ignites, the scandal doesn’t just threaten Fiona’s future—it shatters it.
And now, Ailean comes face-to-face with the ugly consequences of his actions. Fiona’s ruin.
But if he wants redemption, he’ll have to fight for the woman he loves—not as a warrior claiming a prize, but as a man proving he’s worthy of her.
Full of suspense, emotion, and delicious spice, SONS OF MULL is a spin-off series from ROGUES OF MULL and HIGHLAND SCANDAL. The trilogy follows three warriors—Craeg, Ailean, and Greig—and the fierce women who make them question everything they thought they knew about duty, honor, and love.

Never Mind the Happy: Showbiz Stories from a Sore Winner
From the award-winning composer/co-lyricist behind such iconic projects as Hairspray, Sister Act, Mary Poppins Returns, and Smash comes a wickedly funny, no-holds-barred memoir.In Never Mind the Happy, musical dynamo Marc Shaiman looks back on five decades of Broadway triumphs, Hollywood hijinks, and unforgettable collaborations. Along the way, he charts the personal highs and heartbreaks that have shaped him—spending his teenage years in community theater, starting a decades-long collaboration with Bette Midler in the ’70s, surviving the AIDS crisis of the ’80s, his award-winning film music career in the Hollywood of the ’90s, right up to the peaks (and valleys) of creating Broadway musicals from 2000 on.
Candid, hilarious, and deeply human, Shaiman’s story is a tribute to the power of music, the pull of the spotlight, and the beat that never stops.
Part showbiz tell-all, part love letter to the melancholy that fuels creativity, told with perfect comic timing—along with a few wrong notes, and plenty of standing ovations.

plastic
Set during a single twelve-hour night shift in a factory, plastic is a book-length poem exploring the life of the industrial worker turned poet.
Bringing together memoir, ekphrasis and satire, Bplastic is based on Matthew Rice’s experience working in a plastic moulding factory for ten years. Illustrating alienated twenty-first-century Irish labour in poetic form, plastic engages with the inflictions and implications of a ‘post-industrial’, ‘post-Troubles’ society, all while weaving in depictions of factory work from literature, film and the visual arts.
Time-stamped to highlight the claustrophobia of the worker’s experience, this is a poem about feeling a calling while being submerged in the world of menial labour – making plastic airplane parts by night, making poetry by day, uniting what Jacques Rancière calls the ‘labourers in love with the intellectual nights’ and those ‘intellectuals in love with the toilsome and glorious days of the labouring people.’ plastic’s evocation and lucidity moves with grace through working class realities and hopeful imaginings.

Later Life Letter: A Story of Family, Adoption and Love
‘Luke wright and this time it’s personal. But seriously, a highly original idea, expertly carried out’ JOHN COOPER CLARKE
‘I was bawling from the first page and gulped it down in one swift swallow’ HOLLIE MCNISH
‘When it comes to poetry, performing and family Luke Wright is a lifer. Read this book’ LEMN SISSAY
‘A beautiful, brilliant collection. I defy you not to be moved’ BRIAN BILSTON
What is a later life letter? Written by a child’s social worker to be opened at an appropriate age, it details their journey from birth to adoption. When Luke Wright received his as a teenager, he didn’t think much of it. But now, married to a social worker and seeing the care she takes with these letters, he re-examines his own past – and the life he might have had.
Should he feel close to the biological brothers he knows only through social media? Do his beginnings in a notorious tower-block estate counteract the privilege of a sheltered suburban upbringing? How grateful should he be to adopted parents who are – in the end – simply parents?
In this memoir in poetry, no emotion is simple or expected. Wright writes with pinpoint honesty, teasing out the nuances of family, memory and belonging, and illuminating the gaps in the familiar beats of an adoption story.

‘Fantasy at its best’ VAISHNAVI PATELTO KILL A MONSTER, SHE MUST BECOME ONE . . .
As the emperor lays dying, the once-great Azalea Dynasty plunges towards civil war. While its princes plot for power, a more hidden war – to become the next empress – occupies the imperial court.
Wei Yin – peasant girl turned concubine to the cruel Prince Terren – has already endured unimaginable suffering. Ripped from her family, she has no title, no allies, and no escape. But she does have a secret . . .
In the shadows of the palace, surrounded by enemies, she is learning a skill forbidden to women. Because when words are weapons and poetry holds an ancient magic, the fate of a girl – and a nation – can both be rewritten. All she has to do is compose the perfect poem – a tale so powerful, it can kill any man, even the next emperor.
The epic political arena of The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang meets the intimate tragedy and luscious language of The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller in this sensational debut novel by visionary new talent Shen Tao, unmissable for die-hard genre fans as well as readers of literary fiction looking to make their first foray into fantasy.

Seven
‘What a writer.’ ALI SMITH
‘One of the most brilliant British writers working today.’ SpectatorWho decides the rules of the games we play?
In August 2007, or thereabouts, a young philosopher leaves Oslo, heading for Greece, on a mission to find Theodoros Apostolakis, the head of the Society of Lost Things. Fortunately, Apostolakis isn’t lost, but everything else is: ancient libraries, entire civilisations, priceless books and a beautiful box, once used to play the world-famous game of Seven. The hunt for this small thing, among the countless lost things, becomes an absurdist quest through time and space: from the earliest human societies to the advent of AI.
Told, shared and mythologised by our narrator, along with a wild cast of dreamers, philosophers, poets, rebels and optimists, Seven is an extraordinary, uplifting journey through an ever darkening world.

In Her Own League: the new sports romance from Liz Tomforde
He’s used to being the boss. But she’s in her own league…
As the first female team owner in Major League Baseball, Reese Remington has spent her entire life preparing for this role. With a sharp mind and years of experience working behind the scenes, she’s more than qualified. But the public only sees a woman in a man’s world – not the person who’s earned their place on the field. Under constant scrutiny and pressure to prove herself, Reese can’t afford distractions.
Especially one that comes in the form of the team’s tempting field manager who questions her every decision.
Emmett Montgomery is a former All-Star turned coach who treats his players like family and the field like home. After years of running the team his way, the last thing he wants is a new boss – let alone one who seems ice-cold and laser-focused on business. But forced to spend long hours – and too many away games – side by side, he begins to see the fire beneath Reese’s control, the heart behind her ambition and the unwavering determination to prove herself.
When heated banter turns into sizzling chemistry, professional boundaries blur and the spark between them becomes impossible to resist. But Reese is constantly reminded of how many people are waiting for her to fail, and the safest move is to keep Emmett at arm’s length – for the sake of the team, the season and her career.
But keeping their distance is one game neither of them can seem to win…
Coming 3rd March 2026 and available to pre-order NOW.

The Way of Excellence: A Guide to True Greatness and Deep Satisfaction in a Chaotic World
‘A powerful alternative to burnout culture and digital distraction’ CHARLES DUHIGG, author of the bestsellers The Power of Habit and SupercommunicatorsAre the conveniences and distractions of modern life undermining your personal growth and ability to realise your true potential?
Each of us has an innate drive for progress and growth. It’s why we feel alive and fulfilled when we channel that drive into meaningful goals, be it starting a business, writing a book, learning an instrument, studying a craft or training for a marathon. Excellence is not a destination so much as an energising process of growth and becoming – one that yields our best performances and, every bit as important, our best selves. Except too often the hustle of our demanding, distracting and fad-driven lives works against us, leaving us frustrated, unfulfilled and unable to focus on what really matters.
Performance coach and international bestselling author Brad Stulberg offers a fascinating new theory of excellence and why our pursuit of it is integral to personal growth, satisfaction and lasting well-being. Stulberg will help you reclaim your excellence by teaching you how to define, live and work in alignment with your values, cultivate focus and concentration, prioritise consistency over intensity, build durable confidence, and develop the courage to care deeply.
Eye-opening, informative and empowering, The Way of Excellence will give you a new perspective on prioritising excellence and building a more fulfilling life around it.

Am I Normal?: Understanding your place in a complex world (Audio Download): Dr Alex George, Dr Alex George, Aster: Amazon.co.uk: Books
‘The world can feel a hard place at times, who hasn’t asked themselves ‘Is it me?’ How wonderfully reassuring to have Dr Alex ask those same questions with his trademark warmth and honesty. A must read for everyone trying their best at life.’ DR JULIE SMITH‘This is the story of all of the ways in which I didn’t fit in and of all the things I would rather change about the world, than myself.’
How many of us have at some time wondered ‘Am I Normal?’ And yet, our society is set up in such a way that there is very little room for difference or quirks or for us to question what normal really is.
In this powerful, honest, and ultimately comforting book, mental fitness advocate and former A&E doctor Dr Alex George explores what it means to be “normal” in a society that often fails to embrace any kind of straying from the accepted path laid out by the expectations of others.
After years spent trying to fit the mould of what others expected of him, Alex’s ADHD diagnosis became a turning point – not just in understanding himself, or helping him navigate the highs and lows he had experienced in childhood, whilst working in A&E and after the devastating loss of his brother, but in challenging the systems and society that marginalise so many.
This is a book that will give hope to anyone who has ever felt different and help you realise that your version of your normal is enough.

Death on the Lanai: A Golden Girls Cozy Mystery (Golden Girls Cozy Mystery Series)
The New York Times bestselling series that began with Murder by Cheesecake continues with an all-new Golden Girls cozy mystery!When the Girls accept a very strange invitation to a lavish party on a remote island estate, they find that murder has a way of ruining even the most glamorous of evenings.
The invite delivered to 6151 Richmond Street was short on details, only promising to celebrate “the greatest artist of the century” and accompanied by a jewel-encrusted brooch–the whole package a brand of mysterious opulence that another Saturday night of gin rummy just can’t match.
Blanche Devereaux’s passionate dalliances are as plentiful as hot Southern nights, and surely one can’t be expected to remember all of one’s suitors. But when the Girls disembark the party’s ferry at a small Biscayne Bay island and meet their secretive host, the memories come flooding back: she a Radio City Rockette in her twenties, he the poor artist who could offer her nothing but his love. Fate drove them apart, but Declan, now a famous artist El Toro, professes that Blanche has always been his muse.
Featured prominently in his artworks and central to El Toro’s return to the apex of the art world, Blanche is thrilled to have been such an inspiring figure to this man. But looking around at a party filled with those who have made their livings off the artist’s fame–his assistant, his art dealer, his greatest critic, and more–Dorothy isn’t so sure they’re welcome on the island after all.
When a tropical storm knocks power out across the island, an optimistic Blanche proclaims that everyone looks better by candlelight anyway. But when Declan is found dead the next morning, all eyes are on her, his supposed muse of thirty-plus years. Trapped at the estate with the other guests–suspects all–the Girls must band together to find the true killer and get back to pleasant evenings of card games and cheesecake.

“If this book were any better I’d cut my own head off.”–Ottessa Moshfegh
“Kill Dick is a fever dream.”–Harriet Armstrong, author of To Rest Our Minds and Bodies
A fever dream, Kill Dick is a literary thriller that plunges into the chaos of Los Angeles where addiction, privilege, and corruption combust.
At nineteen, Susie Vogelman should be coasting: she’s an NYU dropout with no responsibilities, endless prescription pills, and a Brentwood estate to waste away in. But Los Angeles has other plans. A string of brutal murders targeting addicts spreads through the city, and Susie’s ivory tower begins to crumble. The headlines point too close to home: her father’s ties to an opioid empire, a sinister secret society, and her own complicity in the systems holding it all together.
Then there’s Peter Holiday, a disgraced professor running a rehab scam so audacious it’s almost admirable. When their lives collide, Susie and Peter are dragged into a web of privilege, corruption, and violence, where every escape leads deeper into the rot.
Dark, satirical, and razor-sharp, Kill Dick is a modern literary thriller that unflinchingly dissects wealth, exploitation, and the perilous line between survival and self-destruction.

Medium Rare
Phil is ordinary. A mid-level Washington lobbyist for a decidedly unsexy organization, unhappy in the way all mildly successful, minimally influential men are. That is until the spring of 2019, when Phil’s picks for the NCAA March Madness Tournament start panning out, and heads begin to turn his way. He really may do it: predict a perfect bracket, for a billion-dollar prize. At first, Cassandra is just along for Phil’s soaring rise – she had foreseen it happening, after all. Despite moving in different circles since their shared university days and Cassandra never much liking him, she recognizes in Phil the making of a legend worthy of the highest art. What Cassandra fails to predict, though, is just how much she’d grow to care about Phil’s wife, Raleigh – and that the grandest narrative arcs sometimes unfold at the steepest of personal costs. Dazzling in its absurd comedy, Medium Rare is not only a gambol through the upper echelon, but also a shrewd examination of madness, desire, and credibility – why don’t we listen when prophetic women speak? A. Natasha Joukovsky delivers a story as layered and incisive as it is high-flying fun.Read more

I’m a 32-year-old sex worker who just killed a politician. Please, please, please turn me into a feminist anti-hero . . .
A 32-year-old sex worker has just killed extremist political hopeful Meat Neck. Holed up in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods, she now has only two days, her wits and a high-speed internet connection to save her own life.
Her best bet is to reach out to the wildly popular feminist investigative podcast Justice for Bimbos. In a hastily-typed series of emails, the newly-minted “Murder Bimbo” explains how she was recruited and then trained by a cabal of code-named US agents to take out Meat Neck.
But, when she starts a new set of emails, this time addressed to her ex-girlfriend, we begin to realize that Murder Bimbo might not be the unsuspecting cog she claims to be.
In a time where ‘truth’ is more flexible than ever before – who really is Murder Bimbo? And what will she do next?
Introducing an unforgettable character for our times: hyper-articulate, totally untrustworthy, politically murky, charmingly petty, and wholly egotistical – this is . . . MURDER BIMBO.

Clara Von Hapsburg used to worry about seating arrangements at the Met Gala. Now, she worries about the humidity ruining her blowout and the structural integrity of her great-aunt’s crumbling lighthouse.
