MARY BEARD SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome £25Professor Beard is quite rightly one the most admired dons of our times, and in ‘SPQR’ she gives us a new and enlightening perspective on life in ancient Rome across 1000 years. In this, as always, excellent book Beard not only looks at how the Roman Empire grew, but also gives us insights on numerous aspects of the daily life of the Senatus Populus que Romanus.

YOTTAM OTTOLENGHI & RAMAEL SCULLYNopi: The Cookbook £28This beautiful book from Nopi’s chef-patron and head chef contains a range of over 120 dishes that will be loved by the regulars ‘north of Piccadilly’ and those that love Ottolenghi. With recipes that vary in their degree of complexity, though all within the capability of the home cook, this book inspires, challenges and delights.

ANDREA CAMILLERIBlade of Light £16.99The 19th instalment in the fantastic Inspector Montalbano mysteries from phenomenally successful Andrea Camilleri. In ‘Blade of Light’ Montalbano faces reports of armed robbery, a suspected mafia hit and a case involving anti-terrorist police that seems connected to him somehow. In the face of many challenges Inspector Montalbano must focus if he is going to solve this mystery.

T O M N I N D

EDMUND DE WAALThe White Road £20Acclaimed writer and potter Edmund de Waal sets out on a pilgrimage to tell the story of a global obsession with white porcelain. The journey begins in China, the birthplace of porcelain and takes in Venice, Versailles, Dublin, Dresden, South Carolina and the English South-West. What makes it special is the marvellous interlocking of creation and inspiration. Spellbinding. As luminous and translucent as the material itself.

SEBASTIAN FAULKSWhere My Heart Used To Beat £20I didn’t just like this book, I adored it. Faulks is brilliant in his depictions of people in wars – ‘Birdsong’ for the First World War, this for the Second. Essentially an English doctor, Robert Hendricks and his host, Alexander Pereira explore how we perceive events – is it the event itself or the way an individual chooses to remember it? An ambitious but profoundly moving book.

ROBERT HARRIS The Dictator £20This is the long-awaited final volume of the riveting Cicero Trilogy. Marcus Cicero is exiled with his faithful secretary Tiro, separated from his wife and children, his possessions confiscated and his life in constant danger. ‘Dictator’ encompasses some of the most epic events in human history: the collapse of the Roman republic, the subsequent tumultuous civil war, the murder of Pompey and the assassination of Julius Caesar. A tour de force.

HANYA YANAGIHARA Little Life £16.99She sadly missed out on the Booker but this is still the work of a major new US novelist. The tale of four classmates who move to New York to make their way. Over the decades their relationships deepen and darken. At the centre of it all is the increasingly broken character of Jude. Disturbing and life-changing read.

DAVID MITCHELLSlade House £12.99Inhabiting the same world as his Booker shortlisted ‘The Bone Clocks’, this unusually short novel will keep you rooted to your seat from start to finish. Begun as a short story experiment on Twitter, Mitchell claims to have been ambushed by this terrifyingly spooky tale. His fans will love it.

TANIA COMPTON EDThe Private Gardens of England £75Perfect for anyone who loves gardens, the most beautiful publication we have seen this year. Featuring 35 English private gardens, described by their owners, and stunningly photographed, many for the first time. The standard of production is very high, as it should be for a book this price. In my view well worth it.

C L E M M I E J A C K S O N - S T O P S

TESSA HADLEY The Past £16.99A beautifully-crafted story of three sisters and a brother meeting at their grandparent’s old house, over three long summer weeks. Although set mainly in the present, it is their reflections on the past that shape our sympathies and attitudes. Emotions simmer close to the surface in this novel that marks Hadley out as a truly gifted novelist.

DAVID SMITH Something Will Turn Up £14.99As long-time economics editor of ‘The Sunday Times’, Smith has been close to the movers and shakers responsible for the ups and downs of the British economy. Looking back on his beginnings in the Black Country in the 60’s, he charts his own life’s path alongside the often turbulent events in our economy over 50 years.

ROBERT GILDEAFighters in the Shadows £20Exposing the myths surrounding the French Resistance, this well-researched book gives us a moving account of its history. Who were these heroic fighters and why did they take such risks? Focuses on individual acts of courage, as well as the tensions around the question of who was to lead France.

A N D R E W T U R T O N

CHARLES MOORE Margaret Thatcher: Volume II. Everything She Wants £30We are now two thirds of the way through what is going to be considered one of the most important biographical achievements of the century. I was gripped by the first book but this triumphant second volume is equally rewarding, if not more so. The great she-elephant in her prime.

MICHEL HOUELLEBECQ Submission £18.99I read this in one delayed-aeroplane sitting. Another challenging but wildly exhilarating dystopian tale. Like no other novelist, and with electrifying prose, he fearlessly explores identity politics within French society set against the backdrop of extremist Islam. If you want something stimulating, this will not disappoint.

NIALL FERGUSONKissinger 1923-1968 £35Kissinger’s stature and influence is laid bare, as Ferguson traces the rise, fall and revival of this gifted man and his exceptional story. A riveting biographical achievement to sit alongside Caro’s in the light it shines across every vista of American life in the c20th as experienced by one man.
