The bestselling book of conversations between David Hockney and art critic Martin Gayford as they explore the nature of creativity.David Hockney’s exuberant work is highly praised and widely loved, but he is also something else: an incisive and original thinker on art. In this now classic book, filled with anecdote, insight, passion and wit, Hockney reveals the fruits of his lifelong meditations on the problems and paradoxes of representing a three-dimensional world on a flat surface. Compiled from a decade and a half of conversations with art critic Martin Gayford, it reflects a period in which Hockney relocated from Los Angeles to his native East Yorkshire. Their exchanges communicate the immense delight and inspiration that Hockney finds in the changing seasons and natural splendours of this sparsely inhabited corner of England – a delight that is, in the words of Margaret Drabble, 'an invitation to us all to look better, see better, enjoy more’.

The shoe fits, but she's no Cinderella.Ellie knows what she wants in life:Open a glassblowing shop in the art district.See her father retire.Marry for love. (If she can find someone who can keep up, that is).Winning the fae prince's heart doesn't make the list.So when Prince Evander throws a ball to find a human bride, Ellie respectfully declines. And when she reads the morning paper and discovers the prince danced the night away with a mysterious stranger, only for the woman to flee at the stroke of midnight, Ellie can't help but laugh.Until she learns the mystery girl left behind a glass slipper.Ellie's glass slipper. From the set that went missing from Ellie's workshop.So when the idiotic prince decides it's a good idea to use the slipper to identify the love of his life (because, you know, no two women could possibly share the same shoe size), Ellie doesn't hesitate to prove the slipper is hers.Little does she know there's been a modification to her work of art. The prince may or may not have attached a fae bargain to the shoe, and when Ellie places it on her foot, she finds herself both legally and magically betrothed to the very prince she detests.Not that Prince Evander is thrilled about the situation, either. After all, he'd thought the shoe would only fit Cinderella.Together, the unhappy couple must discover a way to break the fae bond, but there's danger along the way.And what's more dangerous than falling in love with someone whose heart belongs to another?Hilarious and filled with witty banter, this not-so-retelling of Cinderella takes a fresh spin on the classic tale, pairing the dangerous politics of Alondria with the swoon-worthy chemistry of a romantic comedy. A Bond of Broken Glass is the third in a series of interconnected standalones, but you just might recognize a few faces along the way.

Writing with the telegraphic swiftness and microscopic sensitivity that have made her one of our most distinguished journalists, Joan Didion creates a shimmering novel of innocence and evil. A Book of Common Prayer is the story of two American women in the derelict Central American nation of Boca Grande. Grace Strasser-Mendana controls much of the country's wealth and knows virtually all of its secrets; Charlotte Douglas knows far too little. "Immaculate of history, innocent of politics," she has come to Boca Grande vaguely and vainly hoping to be reunited with her fugitive daughter. As imagined by Didion, her fate is at once utterly particular and fearfully emblematic of an age of conscienceless authority and unfathomable violence.
A deeply moving and brilliantly idiosyncratic visual book of days by the National Book Award-winning author of Just Kids and M Train. More than 365 images chart Smith's singular aesthetic - inspired by her wildly popular Instagram In 2018, without any plan or agenda for what might happen next, Patti Smith posted her first Instagram photo: her hand with the simple message "Hello Everybody!" Known for shooting with her beloved Land Camera 250, Smith started posting images from her phone including portraits of her kids, her radiator, her boots, and her Abyssinian cat, Cairo. Followers felt an immediate affinity with these miniature windows into Smith's world, photographs of her daily coffee, the books she's reading, the graves of beloved heroes - William Blake, Dylan Thomas, Sylvia Plath, Simone Weil, Albert Camus. Over time, a coherent story of a life devoted to art took shape, and more than a million followers responded to Smith's unique aesthetic in images that chart her passions, devotions, obsessions, and whims. Original to this book are vintage photographs: anniversary pearls, a mother's keychain, and a husband's Mosrite guitar. Here, too, are never-before-seen photos of life on and off the road, train stations, obscure cafes, a notebook always nearby. In wide-ranging yet intimate daily notations, Smith shares dispatches from her travels around the world. With 365 photographs, taking you through a single year, A Book of Days is a new way to experience the expansive mind of the visionary poet, writer, and performer. Hopeful, elegiac, playful - and complete with an introduction by Smith that explores her documentary process - A Book of Days is a timeless offering for deeply uncertain times, an inspirational map of an artist's life.

Le nouveau rendez-vous de la collection À bord : la grande épopée des galères de l’Antiquité égyptienne au siècle des Lumières. Un voyage sur les mers et fleuves du monde, de la Méditerranée à l’Océanie, à travers plus de 80 dessins !L’histoire des galères ne se résume pas à celle erronée et montrée dans les péplums où des galériens enchaînés à leurs bancs rament au rythme du tambour ou sous les coups de fouet. Dérivée des premières pirogues, ce bateau long sera l’un des premiers navires créés par l’homme, mu à rames mais aussi à voiles. Pendant plus de quatre millénaires, sous diverses dénominations et formes (trière, trirème, dromon, galée, etc.), il a accompagné le développement des premières civilisations méditerranéennes. On le retrouve sur toutes les eaux calmes et les grands fleuves et archipels, dans les brumes de la Baltique comme sur les côtes d’Extrême-Orient ou les îles océaniques. À partir de l’Antiquité, grâce à ce navire souvent repris sous le nom générique de galère, les hommes vont échanger idées, biens, techniques et développer le commerce. Car la galère, avant d’être un navire de peine ou de guerre, a aussi été un navire de commerce. Un navire qui n’a cessé de se transformer pour servir essentiellement des rêves de puissance et de prestige à partir de la Renaissance. De la même façon, le statut des galériens a fluctué : les chiourmes ont longtemps été constituées de volontaires contrairement aux idées reçues. Ne pouvant naviguer que par temps calme, les galères sont indissociables de leur port d’attache comme en témoignent les grands arsenaux des royaumes côtiers : Le Pirée, Carthagène, Venise, Gênes, Istanbul ou Marseille – la liste est longue et non exhaustive –, ou des plus petits comme Villefranche-sur-Mer. Et si aujourd’hui la galère appartient à l’histoire de la marine, on la retrouve encore comme reine de bien des parades navales. Pour tout savoir sur l’art de ramer en cadence, embarquez à bord de l’une d’elles !
