About the AuthorYvvette Edwards lives with her family in East London. A Cupboard Full of Coats is her first novel.

A Cupboard Full of CoatsYvvette EdwardsRedolent of Monica Ali and Zadie Smith, Yvvette Edwards’s striking debut is a searing story of family, jealousy, and tragic betrayal

Fourteen years ago Jinx’s mother was brutally murdered in their East London home. Overwhelmed by the part she played, Jinx’s whole life has been poisoned by guilt. Then an old friend of her mother’s appears on her doorstep. He wants to revisit the events leading to that terrible night, forcing Jinx to confront her past, and offering her the possibility of redemption alongside the pain of remembrance. Estranged from her husband and detached from her son, Jinx knows that this is her only chance to end the emotional paralysis that has blighted her life. But the friend has his own secrets to share, and over the course of one weekend they unravel an unforgettable drama, stoked with violence and passion.

Rich with voices from East London and the West Indies, Edwards’s narrative is delivered with a unique and uncompromising bite that announces a new talent in British fiction.

“It was early spring when Lemon arrived, while the crocuses in the front garden were flowering and before the daffodil buds had opened, the Friday evening of a long, slow February, and I had expected when I opened the front door to find an energy salesperson standing there, or a charity worker selling badges, or any one of a thousand random insignificant people whose existence meant nothing to me or my world.

He just knocked, that was all, knocked the front door and waited, like the fourteen years since the night I’d killed my mother hadn’t happened at all...”

About the AuthorClaire Holden Rothman has worked as a lawyer, teacher, newspaper columnist, and translator in her native Montreal. The Heart Specialist is her first novel.

The Heart SpecialistClaire Holden RothmanHeartwarming and inspiring, Rothman’s debut is a gracefully wrought story of a brilliant woman fighting for recognition in a world on the brink of change.

An incredible story of perseverance and passion, The Heart Specialist sets the young, headstrong Agnes White against the prejudice and arrogance of the medical establishment in a battle that will eventually grant her the right to save lives as a practising doctor. Set against the upheaval and social strictures of the early 1900s and based on true events, this unforgettable novel is a testament to the spirit, intelligence, and determination we summon when people stand in the way of our dreams.

“Beautiful, moving, utterly captivating .”Lawrence Hill – author of The Book of Negroes

“Dr Agnes White is fascinating: an authority on the human heart who knows so little of the workings of her own.”Caroline Adderson – author of Pleased to Meet You

“The dean winked conspiratorially, as if he were about to deliver the punchline of a joke, but what came next from his mouth was not the least bit funny. ‘I cannot, in all conscience, subject McGill to upheaval because of the desires of a single young lady, no matter how clever or talented she happens to be.’

I looked down and saw for the first time that my gloves were dirty. A dark smudge stretched from the tip of my left index finger down to the middle of my palm. The smudge grew suddenly, blurring and widening, and it struck me that I was crying. The whole room was now blurry, as if someone had lifted off the roof and let the rain in. Don’t do this, I told myself sternly. I tried to breathe, which was difficult because my chest was tight and full. I could not let the men see.

‘It’s not just me,’ I said. ‘I am not just one young lady.’ To this day I don’t know where I found the breath to speak.”

About the AuthorMark Mustian is an author, attorney, and city commissioner. He lives with his wife and three children in Tallahassee, Florida.

The GendarmeMark MustianWhat if the love of your life, and all your memories, were lost? What if they reappeared at the end of your life and you wished you had never remembered?

To those around him, Emmet Conn is an old man on the verge of senility, a feisty World War I veteran who lost his memory during the war. Now, at the end of his life, he suddenly finds himself beset by vivid dreams of a march across a foreign land, of appalling acts of cruelty, and the anguish of a lost love – and realizes, to his horror, they are memories of events purposely forgotten. As his grasp on the past and present begins to break down, he sets out on a final journey to find the love of his life and beg her forgiveness.

In this extraordinarily haunting novel, Mustian examines how love can transcend nationalities and politics, how racism creates divisions where none truly exist, and how the human spirit fights to survive even in the face of hopelessness.

“It dawns on me, even through the depths of the dream, that I know this language. I have always known it. It is odd, this, to dream and recognize the dreaming, to dangle beyond the vision like a watchful ghost or god. I wonder at it a moment, at why I am here, why I seem to know this place yet not know it, why I understand this language but cannot place it. I smell the smoke of the campfire, hear the shouts and the groans and the rustles. A certainty strikes that I have been here before, that I have ridden this horse, spoken these words, borne the same silent witness. And then it is gone, leaving only the dark and the cold, and the wind. I pull the blanket tighter around me, and continue on through the night.”

“One reads this masterful work thinking all the while of its literary cousins – Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying, Snow by Orhan Pamuk. Books such as these keep our world afloat amidst the tempests of history. ”Bob Shacochis – National Book Award-winning author of Easy in the Islands and Swimming in the Volcano

From Eternity to HereThe Quest for the Ultimate Theory of Time

Sean CarrollThe critically acclaimed radical new history of time before the Big Bang

Twenty years after Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time, Sean Carroll takes our investigation into the fundamental nature of time to the next plane – to what happened before the Big Bang.

You can’t unscramble an egg and you can’t remember the future. But what if time doesn’t (or didn’t!) always go in the same direction? In From Eternity to Here, Carroll, one of the leading theoretical physicists of his generation, delivers a paradigm-shifting approach to understanding the mysterious “arrow of time” in which other universes experience time running in the opposite direction to our own. Exploring subjects from entropy and quantum mechanics to time travel and the meaning of life, Carroll presents a dazzling new theory of how we came to exist.

The Shadow MarketHow Sovereign Wealth Funds Secretly Dominate the Global Economy

Eric J. WeinerGet the inside track on the super-rich, super-secretive, unregulated funds that are buying up the world, piece by valuable piece

The most potent force in global commerce today isn’t Wall Street, the multinational banks, or the governments of the G7 countries. In this brilliant and startling investigation, acclaimed business reporter Eric J. Weiner uncovers the real powers guiding our shaky recovery from the worldwide financial crisis and shaping the economy of our future.

Taking advantage of the current recession and the liquidity problems in the United States and Europe, cash-flush nations such as China, Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, and even Norway are using sovereign wealth funds and other investment vehicles to secure major holdings in multinational corporations as well as massive tracts of farmland and natural resources.

This is the Shadow Market, quietly controlling political agendas as well as the flow of capital in the West – and assembling gigantic investment portfolios that will form the power structure of tomorrow’s economy.

Richard PanekThe Facts of Matter

It is one of the most disturbing aspects of our universe: only four per cent of it consists of the matter that makes up every star, planet, and every book. The rest is completely unknown. Acclaimed science writer Richard Panek tells the story of the handful of scientists who have spent the past few decades on a quest to unlock the secrets of “dark matter” and the even stranger substance called “dark energy”. These are perhaps the greatest mysteries in science, and solving them will reshape our understanding of the universe and our place in it.

His first book, The Accidental Mind, was published by Harvard University Press, and he also serves as the editor in chief of the Journal of Neurophysiology.

PleasureHow Our Brains Make Junk Food, Exercise, Marijuana, Generosity, and Gambling Feel So Good

David J. LindenA leading brain scientist’s look at the neurobiology of pleasure – and how pleasures become addictions

The pursuit of pleasure is a central drive of the human animal. Now, award-winning neuro-scientist David J. Linden explains how recent research has enabled us to decipher how and when pleasure takes control of the brain – and won’t let go.

Combining cutting-edge science with entertaining anecdotes, Linden illuminates how behaviours that lead us to ecstasy can just as easily become compulsive. Why are nicotine and heroin addictive while LSD is not? Why has the search for safe appetite suppressants failed? And in the future, will it be possible to activate our pleasure circuits at will?

This eminently enjoyable and provocative book delves beyond what we like into why we can’t stop ourselves from liking it – even when we think we can.

Pointing the FingerIslam and Muslims in the British Media

Edited by Julian Petley & Robin RichardsonUncovering endemic racism in the British Media

Ever since 9/11, Muslims and Islam have dominated the headlines in the UK. In this important book, several leading media commentators examine the phenomenon of ‘Islamophobia’ and ask how we can tackle it. Charting recent media controversies, from the Archbishop of Canterbury’s comments on Sharia law to the veil ‘debate’, the book argues that media hostility to Islam alienates Muslims and undermines efforts to combat extremism.

With interviews from Muslim journalists and examples of press-fuelled myths about Islam in Britain, this is a captivating insight into how Muslims are depicted in the West.Media / Religion

European AestheticsA Critical Introduction from Kant to Derrida

Robert L. WicksThe only book to cover the evolution of one of the most important areas of philosophy

In this seminal study, Robert L. Wicks provides a sweeping survey of European aesthetics over the last two hundred years. Presenting the theories of sixteen important continental thinkers including Kant, Nietzsche, Freud, and Derrida, this the only comprehensive study of the evolution of continental thought in this key area of philosophy.

Highlighting European ambivalence towards reason in the aftermath of the inhumanity of the French Revolution, Wicks shows how each philosopher deals with the tension between the ideals of scientific rationalism on one side and creativity and human instinct on the other. Should art be evaluated objectively in terms of its form and dimensions, or should we value it because of how it makes us feel? With colour photographs and written in a lively but objective tone, this book will prove essential for students of philosophy, art, and English literature.

Pink Brain, Blue BrainHow Small Differences Grow into Troublesome Gaps – And What We Can Do About It

Lise EliotThe 2010 smash hit arrives in mass-market paperback!

Turning conventional thinking about gender differences on its head, Lise Eliot issues a call to close the troubling gaps between boys and girls and help all children reach their fullest potential.

Drawing on years of exhaustive research and her own work in the field of neuroplasticity, Eliot argues that infant brains are so malleable that small differences at birth become amplified over time as parents, teachers, and the culture at large unwittingly reinforce gender stereotypes. Indicating points of intervention where social pressures can be minimised, she offers concrete solutions for helping everyone grow into well-rounded individuals.

Letters to My TorturerLove, Revolution, and Imprisonment in Iran

Houshang Asadi“A searing and unforgettable account” (Publishers Weekly) comes to mass-market paperback

Houshang Asadi’s Letters to My Torturer is one of the most harrowing accounts of human suffering to emerge from Iran and is now available for the first time in paperback.

Kept in solitary confinement for over two years in an infamous Tehran prison, Asadi suffered inhuman degradations and brutal torture: suspended from the ceiling, beaten, and forced to bark like a dog, Asadi became a spy for the Russians, for the British – for anyone.

Narrowly escaping execution as the government unleashed a bloody pogrom against political prisoners, Asadi was hauled before a sham court and sentenced to fifteen years. Here he confronts his torturer, speaking for those who will never be heard, and provides a glimpse into the heart of Iran and the practice of state-sponsored justice.

About the AuthorIn 1983, the journalist, writer, and translator Houshang Asadi was locked in a Tehran prison. Under torture, he said he was a spy. Many of his friends also confessed and were later executed. He was released after six years. Today he lives in Paris with his wife, Nooshabeh Amiri. They write for the Iranian news website Rooz Online.

“The book would be remarkable on any terms, but it is made especially memorable by the chilling irony and heartbreaking naïveté that characterize Mr Asadi’s tale.”

The Wall Street Journal

“Plunges the reader so viscerally into Asadi’s torment that some passages are almost unreadable.”

PricelessThe Hidden Psychology of Value

William PoundstoneWhy do text messages cost money while emails are free? Why do cereal packets keep getting smaller? Why do department stores have a few extortionate goods that no one will buy? Why do so many prices end in 9?

In Priceless, bestselling author William Poundstone reveals the hidden psychology of value and explores how we react to the most pervasive persuader of all: price. Charting the burgeoning growth of price-consultants who advise retailers from Nike to Nokia, Poundstone shows how behavioural decision theory has revolutionised the pricing strategies of major corporations.

Informed by fascinating behavioural experiments and packed with real-life examples, Priceless explains why prices are so important, and the tricks that companies use to sell their goods. It will prove indispensable to anyone who buys, sells, or negotiates.

Packing for MarsThe Curious Science of Life in Space

Mary RoachThe bestselling author of Stiff explores the irresistibly strange universe of space travel and life without gravity

What happens to you when you can’t walk for a year? When you can’t have sex? Or smell flowers? What happens if you vomit in your helmet during a space walk? Is it possible to survive a bailout at 17,000 miles an hour?

Space is a world devoid of the things we need to live and thrive: air, gravity, hot showers, fresh veg, privacy, beer. To answer these questions, space agencies set up all manner of quizzical and startlingly bizarre space simulations, and as Mary Roach discovers, it’s possible to preview space without ever leaving Earth. Packing for Mars takes us on a surreally entertaining voyage into the science of life in space and space on Earth.
